Visited Dominican Republic for 10 days. Great experience. Scene is active. Pricing excellent value.
Spent $70/day. Best part: friendliness.
Overall: 7.5/10. One of my favourites.

I was there in March and prices were slightly higher.
Spent about $103/day all-in. Quality was excellent.
My tip: avoid weekends.

Good info. I'd add that going during the week is much better — less crowded, better prices.
