Dominican Republic

by Calor - last update: Oct 17, 2003

Zona de Colonial - Santo Domingo
Punta Cana is a beautiful area, approximately 1 hour from the airport. Dotted with beautiful beaches and lush vegetation. If relaxation is what you require this town is the place for you. For those who need nightly activities and a more upbeat atmosphere, opt for another town (Boca Chica, Puerto Plata, Santo Domingo) to name a few.

The picture above was taken in the colonial zone in Santo Domingo.

Pros:"People, beaches, food, hotels, tranportation is quite cheap"
Cons:"Driving is bad especially in the towns such as Santo Domingo"
In A Nutshell:"Dominican Repbulic and espeically Punta Cana, is for those who want to get away from it all!"
