We have a villa in Casa de Campo and I need to replace three large sisal rugs that came with the house five years ago. I have been to the capital and to all the decorating stores in and around Casa de Campo and no one carries sisal or hemp or indoor/outdoor rugs. It is incredibly easy to purchase these rugs in lots of styles and colors through numerous online site or catalogs in the US for about $500 per 9X12 foot rug, but the shipping to the DR more than triples the prices.

> So many people have straw type rugs in the DR that I am surprised it is so hard to find them. Any suggestions you may have are appreciated.

The IKEA sisal rugs are called "Egeby" in their catalogue but are only 4.4x6.5ft. I am sure I've seen them in larger sizes in the store. btw the catalogue doesn't show all in-store merchandise eg garden furniture.
