Hey everyone, haven't been here in awhile. A friend and I are planning to come to DR in 12/30/08 - 1/2/09. We want to visit SD, but we also want some serious beach time. I was thinking of Punta Cana because it touted for it's pristine beaches. Not too thrilled about the whole AI thing, but it's fine I guess. Also, I would appreciate any advice on 'gay friendly' hotels there.
I've been to Cabarete before...which I thought had it's charm. I was just not thrilled about the place I stayed in 2006; it was advertised as a gay hotel...I think it was called Arcos?? It was in Jardin Deprtivo..and there wasn't squat there...you had to grab a moto concho and go into town. Anyway, I don't think I would stay there again.
So, in summary, if we wanted to do a few days in SD and a few days at one the better beaches (white sand, clean) with some possibility to meet other open mined and gay people, where would you go?
