I'll be in the DR for 10 days in a couple of weeks and I want to drive to Samana from Punta Cana. It looks like I can head west out of Punta Cana thru Higuey and then to Monte Plata. My intent is to stay over night in Monte Plata and then head north to Samana and stay there for a couple of days before heading to Caberete.

Not sure if this is the right section but can anyone suggest a decent hotel in Monte Plata? And also, any comments on my planned journey? Thanks in advance.

Not reasonable unless you hit the new highway under construction.
Your safest way is to go to Santo Domingo and then take Carretera Duarte to the San Francisco de Macor'is turnoff.

Takes about 7 hours from Punta Cana
