Looking for a town similiar to Caberate

You could take in consideration Bayahibe in the south-east of the island. No surfing, because no waves, but a beautiful beach and you can walk to everything. If you stay in the town you aren?t near the AIs. The main difference is that there is not too much night life in Bayahibe: some restaurant, little bars and a colmado where most people hang out.

El Corticito in Punta Cana/Bavaro. There are a few non AI hotels and condos right on the white sand beach and a few Cabarete-style restaurants/bars right there as well.

Or...some people would say Las Terrenas fits your description, but the beach isn't very wide and it's on the Atlantic side.

But.....nowhere else is really like Cabarete!

Thanks. I never been out to the Punta Can area. I have tried to do some research on El Corticito but really have not found out much info. I would like to find a condo or small B&B. Are there bars/discotecs to go at night besides the big AI hotels? I always heard the beaches were nice but I thought the beaches would be lined with AI hotels like Cancun.

El Cortecito is the one section without the AIs and as I said there are a few restaurants/bars right on the beach kind of like Cabarete. There are also a few large discos/nightclubs (including Webster Hall from NYC and MonteCristos from Santo Domingo) a short cab ride away. There are several small hotels and dozens of condos in the area. There's plenty of info on here and elsewhere on the web if you do a little more searching.
