I think many people already asked this question, but I think everbody has a different profile and different expactations (please excuse any grammatical mistakes, Im not an native speaker). About me, Im 26 years old and never have been to the DR before. Im planning on staying two to three weeks.
What do I expect from my holiday in the DR (rhetorical question)?
1. FUN.
1.1 Fun at night. I like (love) to dance Merengue, Bachata and some Salsa. 1.1 I want to go out as often possible to dance and meet new people.
1.1.2 I do not want to dance only with other tourists.
1.1.3 I do not want to drive above 20 Mins to a club. Once in a while it's ok (special, super nice clubs?), but not everyday.
1.2 FUN at daytime.
1.2.1 Maybe do some waterskiing, learn to kitesurf
1.2.2 Hang around at the beach, watch the people, read some books.
1.2.3 It would be nice to see lot of young people (twens).
2. See the island and its people.
2.1 I'd love to make (guided) tours (Santo Domingo would be nice) to see the "countryside", the waterfalls, do some horsebackriding.
3. Make a 1-week cruise
3.1 If all goes well, it will be on the german cruiseliner AIDA.
Can you recommend a hotel (doesnt have to be "all inclusive") and a city/ressort where I can access most of these things? Please no super expensive hotel.
Any tipps are highly appreciated.
