Stay in Maria Montez. Ask for Dona Gladys (the owner) and say Richie from New York sent you. PM me and I will give you the name of my most confident friend in Barahona and he will take you to a couple of clubs. He's cool but doesn't drink or dance, but you can and he'll make sure you get back and forth. I'll give you my contact numbers. You can call me before you go and while you are there to let me know how you are being treated. Do you speak Spanish?
