With some awesome road trip options available in the surrounding area, renting a car makes good sense. Without one, it’d be much more difficult to experience everything that Santo Domingo, 50 miles away, has to offer. Among your first stops here should be Blue Mall, Assembly Hall of Jehovah’s Witnesses and Sambil Santo Domingo. Don’t forget about Samana either! Just 50 miles away, Cayo Levantado, Cayo Levantado Beach and Playa el Valle are non-negotiable stops here.
