Vacation Dominican Republic. Everywhere,  Always a Smile. I think the secret is the way they live. Simply laughing most of the time. Not to say everyone is perfect, but here on the Northeast coast of the Dominican Republic in Sosua, Encuentro, and Cabarete, you will find people enjoying their life. It’s safe and lovely no matter where you go. Even at the supermarket, they bag your groceries (when was the last time that happened?) Moreover, they take your groceries to your car or taxi with a big smile. A tip of 100 pesos (2 dollars) makes them smile even more.

Kind, Safe Private Drivers Dominican Republic

This is the kind of attitude you will find everywhere you go. We recommend having our Concierges recommend a private driver to take you around to the various fun excursions in the Dominican Republic.  Renting a car is OK. But, it’s tricky.  When you decide to take an affordable vacation in the Dominican Republic there is so much to see and do. For example. Monkey Jungle is only 20 minutes from Swell Residences in Playa Encuentro in Cabarete. Imagine going to a place where everyone is smiling and having a blast with Squirrel Monkeys.

Monkey Jungle is an absolute blast. Click! 

I have been there many times with groups and never get tired of it. 20 minutes from Cabarete. Furthermore, they donate most of the fees to care for the rescued monkeys (yes there is such a thing known as animal trafficking.) And they also donate to the Eco Community of Local Families. It will take 90 minutes and you and/or your family will love it. Guaranteed.
