3. Besides traditional hotels, individual bungalows for rent are quite common in the resort. This accommodation option will be optimal for large groups and those who go on vacation with the whole family.
4. March and April are considered the hottest months of the year. The weather is optimal for a beach recreation but this period is not the best for active entertainment.

10. Drinking tap water should be avoided in La Romana. Bottled water is sold everywhere, and some hotels provide it to guests free of charge.

14. The most common language in the resort is Spanish. Even in large hotels, the staff may not speak English, so it wouldn't be superfluous to take along a Spanish phrase book.
15. Don't forget about bargaining when visiting private shops and markets. Tourists are often offered the price several times higher than the real one.

Dominican Republic: travelling advices
2. The tropical country's relaxed rhythm implies that everything here takes place half an hour or even an hour later than planned, so you need to be patient. 3. Don't move away from Dominicans who approach you close during the conversation. This country has its own ideas about personal space, and this "maneuver" may be regarded as rudeness and unwillingness to communicate.
4. Arriving in the Dominican Republic, be sure to exchange some US dollars for Dominican pesos at ATM. Many restaurants and hotels accept American dollars, but this may be unprofitable.
5. It's very important to avoid drinking tap water and water in restaurants. Do not buy coconut water on the street. You can only drink bottled mineral water bought in a food shop. Use it to rinse the mouth after brushing your teeth. In restaurants and cafes, ask waiters if they purify water used for drinks.
