Here at Casa de Campo, we love the holidays. We’ve got Santa and his merry elves coming to Altos de Chavón, and to put everyone in the Christmas spirit there are a variety of fun holiday events at Casa de Campo all season long. In the meantime, we’re making a list (and checking it twice, of course) of great holiday gift ideas.
Gifts To Buy At Casa de Campo
If you’re vacationing at Casa de Campo over the holidays, there’s no shortage of holiday shopping options. Our main hotel building, The Marina, and Altos de Chavón offer something for everyone! Here are five things to pick up for friends and family this holiday season:
Jewelry
Altos de Chavón is home to some incredible boutiques selling one-of-a-kind items made by local artists and artisans. Everett Designs offers gorgeous jewelry crafted from gold, silver, pearls, coral, amber, and even rare coins. Pick out a unique piece to show your loved one just how special they are!
Designer Goods
Stop by the Carmen Sol NY designer boutique in the Casa de Campo main building and you’ll find luxury gifts for everyone on your holiday shopping list. The boutique features fashions and accessories from designers like Prada, Dolce & Gabbana, Chanel, and more. At The Marina, the selection is even more extensive with over twenty shops.
Dominican Cigars
Cigars make a wonderful gift and those made in the Dominican Republic are among the best in the world. Cabinet Tobacco Boutique has locations at Altos de Chavón and the main hotel building and specializes in quality cigars and other handcrafted tobacco products.
Carnival Masks
For authentic Dominican Republic gifts and souvenirs, visit Jenny Polanco at Altos de Chavón. Your friends and family will love the colorful carnival masks that are created by local artists and sold there.
Pottery
Pottery is both a beautiful and useful gift, and there’s nowhere better to purchase it than the Emilio Robba Atelier art studio at Altos de Chavón. The boutique, owned by the world-famous “sculptor of flowers” Emilio Robba, sells pottery, tapestries, and serigraphy created by Altos de Chavón artisans.
Gifts To Buy Someone Vacationing At Casa de Campo
If someone on your shopping list has a vacation to Casa de Campo planned, they’ll appreciate the thoughtfulness of a gift that will aid with their upcoming trip. Here are five gift ideas vacationers are sure to love.
Ultimate Beach Bag
Minitas Beach at Casa de Campo is a picture-perfect Caribbean beach, and resort guests love spending the day here. Putting together the ultimate beach bag will save your friend from having to do so. Start with a cute bag, like this colorful tote by Tory Burch.
Next, fill it with everything you need for a blissful beach day, like sunscreen, a fun beach towel, a Frisbee, and a great book.
Kindle Oasis
For the reader in your life, a Kindle or other e-reader makes a great gift. Your pal will be able to bring as many books on her Casa de Campo vacation as she pleases without having to worry about finding room in her suitcase.
The Kindle Oasis is the thinnest and lightest version yet, and it was even named one of Oprah’s famous “favorite things” this year.
FitBit Charge 2
Casa de Campo is an ideal vacation spot for active travelers. Snorkeling, kayaking, zip lining, golf, tennis, and more keep our guests as busy as they desire. Our state-of-the-art fitness center lets guests keep fit while on vacation.
A Fitbit activity tracker is a perfect gift for people who are always on the go. The Charge 2 even tracks heart rates, as well as sleep and activity. It’s sure to be put to good use at Casa de Campo!
Carry-On Essentials
Guests of Casa de Campo love the relaxed, luxurious atmosphere of our resort. Extend a little luxury to their flight by gifting your loved on a carry-on care package. Here are some things to include:
• A Sleep Mask
• Extra Ear Buds
• Magazines
• Kiehl’s Lip Balm and Facial Oil
With these caring gifts, your friend will arrive at Casa de Campo already feeling relaxed and well rested.
Instant Camera
These days, most people snap vacation photos on their iPhones, post them to Instagram, and forget them. Help your loved on preserve their Casa de Campo memories with the gift of a fun instant camera!
The Polaroid Snap Instant Digital Camera is reminiscent of old-school instant cameras, but this does so much more. Not only does it print out a copy of your photo right away (with an adhesive back, making it easy to paste in a photo album) but it saves a digital version to post on social media later!
And of course, the ultimate holiday gift…
These gift ideas are great, but of course nothing beats a trip to Casa de Campo! Surprise that special someone with the vacation of a lifetime. Browse our vacation packages and offers to get started.
