My boyfriend and I will be spending the weekend of May 12-14 in Las Terrenas. We would prefer cheaper accomodations.
About 3 years ago, my friends and I went there and stayed in a cheap (but nice enough) place with 2 beds (for 3 people) for 500 pesos/night.
Now I know that those days are most likely gone - I lived in the DR last year and I know that prices have gone up.
What are the chances though of finding a hotel (nice, or at least clean - doesn't have to have a TV) in Las Terrenas in the $30/night range? (We can pay more if that's required - we could rent a room in Playa Colibri - but we would rather just have a simple accomodation)
Should we just ask the taxi drivers in Sanchez, (the ones that bombard you when you step off of the Caribe/Metro bus?)....
Anyone have experience w/ this?
Thanks !
