Default Where to play tennis in Santo Domingo

I belong to a small "house club" in the north end of Villa Mella. The pools are very nice! But, the one tennis court they have is in very bad shape and it is used for all types of activity. My question is does anyone know if a hotel in Santo Domingo will let you play on their courts for a fee?

Most people I know go to the Hotel Santo Domingo or one of the clubs like Naco. Dominican Fiesta Hotel also has courts.

Yes, the Centro Olimpico has some decent courts. You can take the Metro from your old club in Villa Mella down Gomez to their stop! Well, someday soon I suppose...
