Thanks DQUICK,,,, I've been past it on the bus to Samana many times and even stopped for a few hours once when I had a rental car. Passing through there on the main Hwy you get no Idea how big the pueblo is. It seemed to be fair size. I was wondering if there is much nightlife, Casas de chicas, you know what I mean.....I'm sure there is a carwash or two and a few Typicos that would suit my needs nicely.Quote:

when I took a look at this video something felt different,,,,,,,The streets in town seem fairly clean and well kept. Very different from the other places I've been to on the North Coast.
Laguna DuDu,,,, The Blue Lagoon looks to be worth a visit as well.

I was involved in building a Villa there about 10 yrs ago.Quote:

They're not easy to see, but there's a lot of luxury villas in Cabrera, including a couple of some of the biggest on the island, in Orchid Bay, and quite a few up in the hills..
It's a sleepy little town, and not much going on in the way of mongering.
Got a few extra bucks?

http://www.villa-castellamonte.com/
http://www.goldendolphinvilla.com/ (with it's own baseball field)
http://www.casakimball.com/
http://villacabofino.com/ (with it's own grass tennis court overlooking the ocean.)
These are some of the better known ones.
The staff at Sunrise villa is so good, they routinely get tips of 2K-3K dollars for a week. They pamper the shit outta ya.
I did not notice much on the mongering seen, but I was wifed up. That area surrounding area has many upper middle class to rich dominicans. Probably not the best area to monger.Quote:

I only nailed a couple of girl in that time. As soon as the first one spent the night with me, the whole town knew about it (and it's not a big town.. at all)
Rio San Juan is a little livelier.
