Is there a section I am missing for budget minded travelers? I can not afford all inclusives or $40 nights for 30 days while traveling, and while my hosteling experience in the DR has been mixed at best, it seems to me that most of the suggestions I get fall outside my roughly $60 a day budget...which aside from the hellhole of Punta Cana, has been more or less manageable, with a few excursion exceptions.
Most developing countries can be traveled on $30 a day fairly comfortably, I guess I wonder why the DR seems so much more expensive? I think its time to start spreading the word that budget travelers look elsewhere as overcharging and tourist exploitation seem to be the norm around here.
Hoping the mountains change my mind!
