In front of Centro Medico in Punta Cana they were seizing bikes. Had 3-4 on the back of a truck and were loading up another.

The golf course was built first and was a partnership with Nick Faldo. Construction was halted in the economic downturn about 15 years ago. The golf course was still maintained for a few years and I know some golfers who privately played on it with permission from the bankruptcy receiver. Not...

The mini golf was fun but kind of expensive. $20 per person for roughly 45 minute. Since it wasn’t busy when we went, the guy running it let us do the other 18 hole course. While it was fun, it wasn’t something that I’d do again.

I stayed in one in Cabo. It was certainly a couples resort catering to 21-75 year old couples. Lots of adult-themed games and adult evening entertainment (like weekly lingerie fashon show).

Anyone know where this will be located?

This form is a disaster, especially in English. I couldn't get past the Date of Birth question. It kept bringing up a calendar and when I selected my DOB and pressed OK, it did NOTHING. Had to change to Spanish to finally get past the DOB. Next section asks for 1. Port of Embarqement/flight...

Been delayed to April 1st as per the news on DR1.

I was in the back seat of a car recently pulled over for a random check. Then I pulled out my phone and pretended to be videoing the event, we were only detained less than 2 minutes. These guys don't want to be fired for harassing drivers when they are trying to shake them down for a few...

The curfew decree says that the curfew starts at 12:00 noon on Saturdays, Sundays, and HOLIDAYS. Bet a lot of people think it's 5pm today ( and also Monday).

I entered my Length of Stay and Airline Departure flight number on the original form...but is there now another Departure Form I need to complete? Worst case scenario is that they don't let me leave the country.

So for future AI tourists, they have to worry about trying to find a computer at their resort to try to generate a QR code if their phones don't properly work with the immigration website? Great idea to try to automate things but there are way too many platforms that need to be programmed for...

Do I use the same QR code to leave the country? Or do I have to regenerate a different QR code by going back into the form? Lots of questions and very little explanation in the form...

Finally did it on my laptop and sent the PDF via my email to my phone (and also took a screenshot for my phone). This form is going to be extremely tough to use for English tourists as the English version has a lot of drop-downs that are in Spanish. There is a Symptoms section with lots of...

Anyone else try to complete this form on an iphone? I get to the General Information section and the fields aren't allowing me to fill them in...WTF? I got past the Security page but the first question asks about Permanent Address and none of the fields open up for data.

I read a travel magazine a few years ago that said Kubuli was the "Beer of the Dominican Republic". When I googled Kubuli, it said it was the the local beer in DOMINICA. Obviously the writer of the article never visited either country or sampled the beers. I think there would be confusion if...
