Can anyone recommend a good car rental company PC, preferably off airport property? The last few trips we've rented right at the airport and, although we've gotten good vehicles and have not had any issues with the rentals, the airport fees seem really high there, almost doubling the initial...

I have another question for anyone who lives in the Punta Cana area. Does you know of any local cooking classes available? I love to take cooking classes on vacation. I would love to find a Dominican woman/man who is willing to teach me a few dishes. In other countries I've been to classes...

Hi everyone: My husband and I have only been to Punta Cana once and we're planning another trip but have a question about casinos. Last time we went to the Hard Rock casino a few times but want to know if there are also any other casinos open to the public around the PC area? I could swear I...

Hi everyone: It's been so long since I posted anything on here...just been lurking for a while. I need some help. We will be landing at SDQ and need driving directions out to Bavaro. I've searched this site but can't seem to find the information (I may be missing it though). I've read that...

Do any of the golfers who live in the DR know the status of the refurbishment at Playa Grande? I'm assuming it has now started but I could be wrong. The reason I ask is this - last month, on our flight back home, we spoke with a gentleman who told us he was working on the project and that 9...

Every time there is a blood drive in my area (South Florida) I do try to contribute and do my part. I've never had a problem before. This past week there was a big blood drive and I signed up. I answered all the questions on the 2-page form they handed me regarding medical history, etc.. I was...

My husband and I are planning a trip back to the DR the first week in September. He is hoping to golf a few days while we're there. At this point we're torn between a trip to Cabrera/Las Terrenas area where he can golf at Playa Grande, or going to La Romana/Bayahibe area where he can golf at...

My husband and I are returning to the DR first week of September (Sept 3-10). At this point we are deciding on Las Terrenas/Cabrera area or the La Romana area for this particular trip. My husband wants to golf all week. Does anyone golf down near La Romana (Casa de Campo or any of the other...

Just curious - At Costa Dorada, just to the left of the casino and Marien hotel if you're standing on the street, there is a small development of empty lots. There is also a new condo complex being built right there. We know people who bought a lot there 3 years ago, yet not a single person has...

I am trying to plan a golf trip for my husband's 50th b-day. He wants to play golf for a week and I was thinking of Playa Grande. Rather than staying in/around the Cabarete-Sosua area as we usually do, I was looking for some information on either a villa rental, condo rental, or a nice hotel...

I'm looking for information on visiting a coffee plantation in the DR. Has anyone ever been? I've looked through a lot of threads, but so far haven't come across anything except that there is one somewhere outside of Santiago, on the way to Luperon. I'm looking for some directions and whether...

We've been looking at a number of different lots/homes in Lomas Mironas and are hoping to get some more information on the 3 different sections within the community. There is the Gardens section, the section just above the Gardens section, and then the section that is further up, past security...
