Hola Kristo. THere are no beaches in santo domingo proper. You have a few choices juan dolio and boca chica are near by (search the site...you will see the pro's and cons of either place). La romana is further away...but nicer.

THere is not much nightlife in either boca chica or juan dolio (cept for the working girls in bc)....durring the day...either is fine. Juan Dolio is quieter ...not so many beach vendors trying to sell you anything and everything. (a simple no and they will leave you alone)

I live and work in a big city...so i dont have much need or desire to stay in the capital.

good luck!! search this site and will find pleanty of information!
