Thanks!

Embassy Suites Los Marlins Grand Resort, Juan Dolio
Autopista del Este
Juan Dolio
Dominican Republic

Barcelo Capella Beach Resort, Juan Dolio

both about 45min-1h from the city by car (25mins from SDQ airport) Barcelo has others there as well, see their site.

Try tripadvisor or some such for reviews and photos, they all tend to be 3-4 stars (never 5 no matter what they say)

Farther afield (90min+) is La Romana with their Casa de Campo resort. The beach isn't a postcard beach but the rest of the facilities are great and the golf is legendary if you swing that way.

Boca Chica is closer to the city but completely sucks. Stay away from that.
