2 coronels and 18 military officers on behalf of the attorney general of the Dominican Republic assisted the original land owners in a visit to Casa de Campo a few weeks back. These are the facts about why Four Season Hotel was never build in Casa de Campo as proclaimed by Central Romana to be finished by end of 2009. Central Romana (the company behind CdC) is not the owner of the land they offered to Four Seasons, when Four Seasons found out they left the DR very upset and will probably never return. It also turns out that Central Romana is also not the owner of parts of the land where they did the marina extension a few years back.....

Nowhere in the Dominican Republic will there be a hotel that comes close to the luxury and scope of this project.
"We are very excited about the Four Seasons resort hotel which promises to become one of Four Seasons’ finest properties. Central Romana is going all out to do it right," said Eddie Creed one of the founders of Four Seasons luxury chain and a Casa de Campo villa owner since 1978. With an investment by CR of US$120 million, the 200-bedroom resort is expected to open in the winter of 2009........ click on above link for the full story.
