Best of all is that you can rent a two-bedroom apartment that has a living room, fully equipped kitchen with stove, refrigerator, and other accessories to enjoy your vacation with wifi and spectacular views.

“In normal seasons it is $90 for one night for an apartment and that apartment (two bedrooms) is for four people, and if you calculate $90 between 4 people, each person comes out to $20 a day (about RD$1,100 pesos per person per day)” explained Andreas Metzle owner of the complex.
