Has anyone been to Dominican Republic recently? Looking for the latest intel.
Specifically interested in:
- Current price ranges
- Best areas right now
- Any safety concerns to be aware of
- Transport tips
I was there 6 months ago and had a mixed time. Wondering if things have changed.
Planning to go back next month.
Cheers
Best time of year to visit Dominican Republic?

Word of caution — be careful with street touts. Other than that, great destination.

Been there 8 times now. Still one of my top destinations. The quality is what keeps me coming back.

Good info. Going during the week is much better — less crowded and better prices.

Adding my experience: scene has bounced back since pre-COVID. Biggest change: better quality.
