The Dominican Republic has become a hugely popular package destination that vies with Cancun in affordability and atmosphere. The second-largest country in the Caribbean (after Cuba), as well as one of the most affordable, the D.R. has something for everyone, from Vegas-style casinos, nightclubs, and all-inclusive resorts, to horseback riding, golf, surfing, diving, and some 1000 miles of white-sand beaches.
The expected beauty and relaxation of the Caribbean coupled with interesting museums, architecture, and shopping…all packaged under the umbrella of affordability.
