I mentioned in my intro post that we are moving to the Sosua area for work. Not in the town proper but out of a home office in the outskirts (more inland). My wife and I are going down next week to look for a potential rental place to start off and I was hoping to get some advice on where and what to check out.
So far, the only concrete place we want to visit is International School of Sosua for our 3.5 year old son. First question: are there other schools we should check out in the area? This one seems to pop up most often in my research.
Second, are there specific areas to aim at for rentals? We aren't totally wedded to Sosua. Cabarete seems close enough; I don't know much about either place. Puerto Plata is also a possibility but we're moving from a place where my commute is 5-10 minutes so it'd have to be pretty nice.
As for interests, neither of us are big on nightlife anymore. The rare night out is generally dinner at a decent place and possibly coffee or drinks afterward. More important would be nearby tennis courts and a good gym. And near other families with young kids as well.
Finally, is there anything else that we should check out during our week there?
