summer time is also school holiday in most of europe and traditionally lots of family folks take a week off from work to go somewhere as a family.

Nope they are not considered high season.

I disagree with you... Try booking a plane ticket (for Montr?al in my case) in June, July or August under 700$.... Let me know if you find some.. I used to think that summer would be bargain prices... Yeah right !

There are a lot less flight coming from Canada at that time so price is a premium.....

High Season Nov 15- Ap 15
Shoulder June 15- Aug 30
Low rest of the time not mentioned

My thoughts not yours

OP I have MANY friends who have lived here 8, 10,15+ years etc and work in tourism here. The costs are higher then only bc of kids out of school going on vacation. It is not considered high season.

Why are the hotels in July & August in Cabarete MORE expensive in the Summer than Spring?

It may depend on the DR area. In Cabarete, it is definitely a moderately high season. Best time for wind and kitesurfer mid-June to mid-August.

Correct answer with respect to Cabarete in the summer months. It agrees with my experience renting apartments to water sports people and snowbirds that there are two "high" seasons in Cabarete. One in the winter and one in the summer. April and September being the slowest months. This is from 13 years of experience renting, not conjecture.
