Hi everyone. We're going to the Dominican Republic in March of 2008 and are already wondering about what type of currency to take. The last time I was in the Dominican Republic we were able to change our Canadian money at the hotel. This time we're staying at the Gran Ventana Beach Resort and are wondering where is the best place to exchange money and should we take U.S. currency? Also... how far is the closest town from the Gran Ventana and is it worth taking a trip into town?
