Looking to relocate to cabrera any info please help

Playa Grande beach/golf club is being developed into huge villas but no all inclusives. It is not considered to be a tourist area but has a fairly large population of expats who live here permanently or for a large part of the year. We get all the necessities locally, but some things can only be purchased on a trip to the larger towns/cities. Depending where you live you may have slow or intermittent internet. The power supply goes off for hours each day so you need back up sources. Playa grande is only one of the nearby beaches, there are others but none in the town itself. There is a nice local hotel (La Catalina) and a few apartments and houses available to rent. Lots of land and real estate for sale but you have to look long and carefully to get bargains. Not much nite life, but the park in the centre of the city is a local gathering place and gets quite lively on the weekends and holidays. The Dominicans are helpful and very nice but you will find that very few of them speak English. But they are also patient and friendly with gringos who only speak English or worse yet, try to speak Spanish.

First, Cabrera is on a sea cliff so there is virtually no beachfront within the town itself. Outside of town you have a number of beaches (Playa Grande, Playa Preciosa, El Breton, Orchid Bay, Playa Diamonte, Playa Entrada, etc.) so you would have to locate a house on/near those. The only ones with affordable housing would be La Entrada or Baoba. Look in those areas if you absolutely must live on the beach (as opposed to near the beach).

I went to Cabrera and I didn't like it that much. I think you would be better moving to Gaspar Hernandez. GH is more organized and safer. Also GH is closer to Cabarete, Sosua, Santiago and la ciudad de Puerto Plata.

GH is not safer than Cabrera, that's just a silly comment. Cabrera is about as safe as anyplace gets on this island. I've been here for over a decade and as the warden for the US Embassy I hear of all crime. Thankfully I seldom hear about anything of the sort.
