Punta Cana is the tourist hot spot I stayed in La Romana in Punta Cana and had such a blast that I stayed 3 more nights. I had to fly home out of Punta Cana airport instead of La Romana, which took about 1 hour but it was the most wonderful ride as I got to travel through mountainous terrain, cities, and farmlands. I really got to see so much more of the Dominican Republic.
I would agree with others that Punta Cana is the tourist hot spot and a bit commercialized, though if you're looking to do snorkeling tours, jungle tours, water sports, etc, I would recommend PT. |
