About the same
Lexi,
If you are not a picky eater, you will do just fine at either.
The people at Capella go out of their way to serve you. If you ask for Luis at the main dinning room, he will treat u like a princess, but give him a nice tip at the end of your trip or bring him a baseball cap, or ask for Milagros, really nice hard working girl, she will have your coffee and drinks on the table before u ask.
If you stay at Capella, at reception ask for Julio and ask him to give u a room on building 4 on the 2 or 3 floor, you can look at the sea from your window.
At Coral ask in the main dining room for Ivan Bello and he will also make sure your drinks are right on time.
I don't like the Coral (just personal-picky-opinion) but in general they should be about the same rate.
If you want to bring a guest it would be about 35 bucks canadian for a day-pass at Capella and your friend can be with you all day until 5 or 6 PM.
At Coral they also have night-pass for sale and that includes dinner and entrance to the disco with drinks.
If you stay at Coral, don't bother with the Italian a'l cart restaurant, but try to get reservations for the Dominican restaurant on the second floor from the main rest. Make sure it is not on the Dominican theme night, because it is their best thing, even with a Dominican band plyaing nice music while you eat.
I don't know if you like drinking, but ask for your alchohol drinks to be made with Brugal (again, personal choice) instead of those funny brand looking bottles they have.
One more thing if u stay at Capella, there is a nice little bar by the children's pool, if you come down in the morning you can enjoy the nice sun and shades of the palm trees without having to walk too far for your drinks.
PM if you want more details.
BTW,,,,,, how old are u?
MommC and Matilda can give u more detail about night life in Juan Dolio, there is a nice place across from Capella's parking lot with great food and music on Fridays.
