$904 per person. That includes connecting flight in PR (like an hour layover), hotel, and transportation to and from the hotel. And it's all inclusive (food and alcohol included).

I used to live there, and one of our respected members calls the DR home. I know it's hard to get off those all inclusive resorts, but if your able, there is much to see.

I'm trying to think of members from there. The only one that comes to mind is Rafa. Not sure what part of the Caribbean he's from.

Dead on, but I'm actually from Spain. I do live in the DR.

pm me your info. Let me know how can I assist you

Don't forget to ask for a "Presidente" as soon as you can. Ask for one real cold! You can also say: "quiero una fria" and everyone knows what you're talking about

Presidente is horrible. I think it's short for Presidente Blue Ribbon.

Sorry to hear that. I can't say I know anything about beer since I don't drink but any Dominican would surely disagree with you.

We did 8 days / 7 nights in Punta Cana for our honeymoon. It was awesome, and a good price.

Have fun

i've never been there but when my parents went, they said don't venture off the resorts because when they went to take a walk down the beach they were followed, presumably to be robbed
