I've been to DR many times and have family on the Island. I've never gone alone though. I've gone to Playa Dorada many times and had fun. Meeting people, partying and a little golfing.
I checked the Bavaro, but did not get any favorable rates. I have the Flamenco booked in Punta Cana, but was open to any suggestions, unless the Flamenco is a good choice for someone travelling alone.
I am open to any ideas anywhere on the Island. From the Capital, to POP to Samana, La Romana or Punta Cana.
But, I leave next week, soooo, I have to hurry.
