Canadian here, been to a number of places Caribbean/Central/South American but visit later this month will be first time in DR.
Will be retiring later this year and I'm scouting for somewhere to spend 2-3 months next winter to get away from our lovely weather. I will be going to the Puerto Plata area to check out a few places located online in a couple of weeks.
One place I have earmarked (and am considering staying this time) is La Perla in Sosua. However, I stumbled upon a thread on here yesterday that suggests this may be not the most suitable for my purpose, perhaps being on the seedy side and a haven for mongers. Can anyone tell me if this is this an echo from the past, or is it still the case?
Thanks for any input!
