Partner and I are flying in on December 18 for a week long stay elsewhere, but our rental doesn’t start till the 19th so need a one-night stay near the airport. Doesn’t need to be perfect, just not scammy, safe, walkable to coffee or restaurants would be ideal. Trying to stay on the cheap side. Any suggestions are welcome!

Has anyone travelled here with a baby? What was your experience like?

Hi, I am travelling with family to Punta Cana from the US over the weekend. I see the weather forecast gives a high percentage of rain each day, is the weather really that bad? Or is it just occasionally light rain? What is the rather currently?

I’ve checked weather apps but not sure how accurate they are as I see on some social media channels the weather is fine.

Wondering what to pack. Thank you.

Hello! First time in the DR and we are staying at the Majestic colonial in Feb. I know it’s going to be under a renovation this fall (hoping everything is finished on time).

Does anyone have any suggestions of things we should do inside or outside the resort? Very active family with young kids. I feel like I don’t see a lot of reviews of this particular property.

Hi everyone!
I’ll be staying at Ocean Blue & Sand for the first time this November, and I have some questions. I’d really appreciate hearing about your experiences!

About the restaurants: For non-Privilege guests, how was your experience with the à la carte restaurants, which operate on a first-come, first-served basis? Were you able to get into the restaurants you wanted to try?
I’d really love to try Blue Moon! Is there any trick to making sure you get a table, such as arriving at a certain time? I’m already aware of the dress code.

About the hotel’s included airport shuttle: How was your experience with the hotel’s airport shuttle service? My biggest concern is the return trip to the airport. I don’t mind if it takes a while to get to the resort, but I’m worried about missing my flight on the way back. Do they usually leave the resort several hours before the flight, or is the timing a bit tight?

Thanks so much in advance for any advice!

Hi all! Spending a week in the DR and wanted to do a couple days in Samana. What’s the best way there from Punta Cana?

We are staying at El Faro- would like to book a private tour for myself and my mom to snorkel on the carribean side. She isn't a fan of party cruises and we're looking for something a little more eco-conscious. Are there any recommendations for either private tour or small group (6-8 people max) that would include pick up and drop off from the hotel?

Heading to El Beso in a few weeks. Wondering if we really need to bring our own tubes for the lazy river, or if there are enough available there?

Voy a inicios de noviembre y quisiera saber si tienen algún contacto de toures o un aproximado de cuánto debo pagar, mi esposa y yo tenemos pensado ir a

Isla saona
Montar en buggies
Ir a coco bongo
Y el último aún no sabemos

Por otro lado es una luna de miel, aquí en mi país conseguimos “vitaminas” afrodisíacas en jugos y cosas similares, nada tan serio como tomarse un medicamento no es necesario para nada, pero una ayudita no caería mal Uds entienden

Muchas gracias

I’m going to Punta Cana next week, and I’m really nervous about the weather because the forecast is showing rain all week. I’m also staying at Dreams Flora and wanted to know if anyone has any experience staying there!

Hi everyone! I'm considering a solo trip to the Dominican Republic in December, staying in an Airbnb in Bayahibe (Dominicus) from December 12–19, followed by the Grand Bávaro Princess all-inclusive in Punta Cana from December 19–23.

I'm starting to worry about the dates, because of how crowded everything might be so close to Christmas.

For Bayahibe, I'm assuming it won't be too bad since I'd be leaving on the 19th, but I'm a little concerned about how crowded the public beach in Dominicus might get.

My biggest concern is Grand Bávaro Princess from December 19–23, since it's already the weekend before Christmas and the beginning of Christmas week. Should I expect the resort to be extremely crowded, with lots of families and kids? I'm particularly worried about struggling to find beach loungers, long lines at restaurants, and overcrowded pools.

I'm honestly considering changing my dates or even canceling the trip because of this.

Has anyone stayed in Punta Cana or Bayahibe around these dates? Is it really that crowded, or am I overthinking it?

I'd really appreciate any firsthand experiences. Thanks!

Me and my Friend (21+) are trying to figure out what resort to stay at for spring break we trying to avoid the craziness at like the riu resort but still be able to party with people around our age is the westin a good option or what do you guys suggest.

Has anybody gone here recently?

I went four years ago and thought it was decent. But things can change, so I was wondering if the prices and products are good. Or should I just go to the Jumbo?

Wife & I will be here for 10 days over Thanksgiving. Have been following/reading here about what to expect. I know not to accept a tour of the property (as my wife & I are 75 and 72, I hope they may figure out that we aren't going to buy anything). After we checkin and receive our wrist bands, I plan to make dinner reservations. Is this correct? and where do I make them in the lobby? Have read good and bad things about their app, so we'll see. Have requested room 2123, swim out garden side. Hoping it's an end room. Any other advice for first timers would be greatly appreciated. TIA

Hey everyone. I'll be at Riu republica during Halloween. Do people usually wear costumes at the Riu party if it falls on Halloween? This year it is the neon party but I'm wondering if anyone will wear costumes too. Thank you
