This fabulous location is a must for anyone wanting to go somewhere welcoming, warm and enjoyable. The scenery is breath taking, with films being filmed there, such as Jurrassic Park. There are many trips on which you get to see the sights. This also allows you to see how these people live. The locals are friendly, and treat you like long lost friends. There are your beach Traders who with a firn NO thanks will go away. Please remember these are people living in the 3rd world and this is their form of earning. The only bad side I found was how the visitors spoke to the staff at my hotel. They were impolite, and did not apprieciate the language barrier, and got angry when they couldn;t understand English. The majority of Dominicans do infact speak good English. I flew from Gatwick airport. The flight was ten hours long. I was met at the airport by my rep. The first time I went I went with first choise , then the second time was with My Travel. I prefered the reps from First choise. I stayed at Bahia Principe in Rio San Juan both times. This resort is fabulous. Clean, beautiful, and you get totally spoilt. It is an all inclusive resort. The is a huge range of different food. Even the most pickiest will find something they will enjoy. You need to book specialist resturants. You have a range of activities to do, like pool side entertainment, crazy golf, water sports, and even a church. The staff are wonderful, and made both my holidays. The cost for a 2 people for two weeks AI was £700. The daily cost is low as its all included. But there are lots of shops to spend your American Dollars, or peso's, and brilliant trips on offer. There is the chance of free scuba lessons in one of the 4 pools. This place is disabled friendly, and a place for young and old.
