Greetings friends,
I will be flying to Puerta Plata, and staying in Sosua, within the next few weeks and wanted to get some good insight before getting out there. On the two occasions that I have been there before, I primarily stayed on Sosua and got out to Puerta Plaza just once.
Fortunately then, I had a friend of mine who had been there several times before to show me the ropes, and has was fairly fluent in Spanish, which prevented us from being taking advantage of on several occasions I am sure.
However, I did want to get some insight from anyone who has stayed in Sosua recently. Both my travel buddy and I are around 40 and want to get some R&R, partying in, and maybe get out a little further into surrounding areas, maybe Puerta Plata, Cabarete, etc. on our own.
Since we're both guys who want to maximize our time and minimize our spend, I'm seeking advice one following:
Thanks and I look forward to hearing from you.
Thanks.

Since we're both guys who want to maximize our time and minimize our spend, I'm seeking advice one following:
- Good food on the cheap
- Social spots to have some fun
- Places to go in surrounding areas (within one hour preferrably)
- Reasonable options for rental car
- Any other helpful hints
Thanks and I look forward to hearing from you.
Thanks.
