I’d recommend the pepto tablets so you can bring them in your carryon on the plane.

I was born and raised in DR. Been living in the States for over 20 years now and I agree with this list. Thank you for enhancing everyone’s experience!

@GENIDRAWING Год назад

I recommend brushing with bottle water and this will avoid having stomach issues. I am a Dominican who lives out of the country and I do not brush with tap water when I visit the country. I used to and always had stomach problems and my mother told me to stop using tap water and ever since I haven’t had any problems while in the country.

@johna5428 Год назад

How about taking a shower I guess you have to make sure you don’t swallow any water

@kelleysmits2471 Год назад

If you're not brushing teeth with tap water how do we feel about ice cubes? I'm paranoid (maybe) about what quality the ice is in drinks. Should I be?

@rosacaraballo739 Год назад

Mostly everything like cooking drinking water is with bottled water that’s usually including ice

@nick92065 Год назад

I have IBS, and I’ve never had a problem with brushing my teeth with the tapwater.

@safiyas.2546 Год назад

@@kelleysmits2471 I’ve heard they buy ice and don’t use tap water esp 4/5 star all inclusive resorts

@omhomelin Год назад

Just a caveat about Pepto - it contains Sulpha and those who are allergic to Sulpha drugs can develop a very bad rash if they go into the sun (I learned this the hard way.) Also, please consider using “Reef Safe” sunscreen on vacation as the ingredient “oxybenzone” in traditional sunscreens can cause reef bleaching. I thought most resorts were asking ppl to do this but it’s more of a personal responsibility thing as no one will ask you but it does seem like the right thing to do

First thing you do is bring tape and tape over the bathroom faucet. This way you will not drink or brush your teeth with the water. #2 When showering put mouthwash in your mouth (practice at home a few times before the trip) so again you don’t drink any of the water.

Just got back from DR Royalton Bravo AMAZING TIPS....bring the tumbler/thermos for sure I had my butler fill my tumbler w tequila for excursions...also I would suggest bringing a snorkel gear and a floating raft people used for the bright blue ocean. Gift shop was insanely expensive 45$ for a 12$ floating raft . Sunscreen spot on that sun is hot 🥵 ruined my last day because I wore 15 sunscreen I literally had sunburn that made me so sick 🤢. Tipping we tipped our butler $120 whoops so thanks on the tipping point, he was nice but he really only booked dinner resvs that's bout it. O if you can book a swim up room... Pretty amazing 😍.

James Coolist has great takes on DR resorts. We visited Excellence PC (we got a swim up suite but not the club side), and it was beyond excellent. Coolist didn't even mention the gym facilities and tennis courts (with daily instruction by a tennis pro!), and those spots are top tier for any resort, anywhere. It was also a great way to work off hangovers :) I'm booking Royalton CHIC for this Christmas (because Coolist says it's tops), and I can't wait! Definitely bring Pepto Bismol with you, but you likely wont also need pills for diarrhea. This is likely TMI, but Pepto turns your poop into black charcoal, lol, and you will likely become constipated as a result. Have some laxative ready when you get back, you'll need a good week to work it all through!

@briannaturner4684 2 года назад

Great vids. Super helpful. Been looking into all these places for June. Still deciding between Punta Cana and Cuba though….😬. New sub here. Keep making me jealous! 💋

@Murminator660 2 года назад

PC the hotels and food is better than Cuba. I've been to Cuba several times and Cuba is an amazing experience hands down the Cuban people are the most genuine and helpful of all the Caribbean. The beaches are absolutely to die for to see them youtube Cayo Santa Maria, Varadero, Cayo Coco/Guillermo...etc. Like i said the food is a little bland but you won't starve to death, the hotels are not as fancy their 5* is equivilate to a 3* in Mexico so best to book the best hotel and it is still 1/2 price of PC. If you are a seasoned traveller you might be a little disappointed in the hotel rooms fairly basic but who spends time in the rooms?

@chinbi18 2 года назад

I personas would it go to Cuba. Very poor not a vacation party ny sister didnot like it

@briannaturner4684 2 года назад

Thanks so much for the input guys! Good to know. I’m still torn..because I’m a foodie (though are any all inclusive a really known for their food..?) and I really want that turquoise clear water experience. Definitely leaning towards PC.

@MrBeatboxmasta 2 года назад

Punta Cana has better food than Cuba. Mexico has better food than PC. Jamaica has much better beaches than Mex and PC but is more expensive and has slower service. Cuba should not even be on your list.

@jinettediaz8742 2 года назад

35 days lol I’m weak- thanks for all the tips

@riccochet704 2 года назад

Another I recommend bringing is cortisone cream. This goes hand in hand with pepto and immodium. I don't know if it was something in the pool or ocean, but I broke out in something and the cortisone cleared it up in a day. The good thing is that if you forget something most resorts have an on site pharmacy. You'll pay stupid money for the products, but they'll have what you need. Even prescription drugs that don't require a prescription. Like Tramadol for pain and antibiotics for infection are over the counter. Just don't take those back to the U.S. with you they won't make it through customs unless you have a prescription.

@lygophilia4127 5 месяцев назад

Reapply all SPF every 2 hours, more often if you're in the water or sweating, even if it says water resistant. The difference between SPF levels are percent of UV rays it blocks. You also need at LEAST twice as much as you think you do or else you're not getting the SPF protection level on the label. 1 oz is recommended for the whole body--a shot glass. More if you're large.

@finned958 2 года назад

A fully sealable thermos is needed too. I gotten tired of constantly putting on sunscreen. Stay indoors between 9am to 2pm when the sun is harshest. You need acetaminophen in case of a headache after a night of drinking.

@MrBeatboxmasta 2 года назад

The best way to avoid hangovers is by drinking at least as much water as alcohol. Your liver will thank you for it.

@asiah8139 2 года назад

Advil or Aleve (ibuprofen or naproxen aka NSAIDs) for headaches. The liver already going through enough removing the alcohol, adding acetaminophen (Tylenol) will just add work and run the risk of liver damage. Just eat a snack before taking an Nsaid (prevent stomach ulcers). I tend to take ibuprofen after I eat but before I sleep just in case. Wake up great

@Joycer2002 Год назад

Although the resorts are high security you can walk along the beach for miles. We stay at the Grand palladium as it is adjacent to the town and the beach on the town side is lined with beach huts for shopping, hair braiding, nails and custom cigars. We've been there 11 times and have always gone back to the same resort. Our first two trips we stayed at the Barcelo and that was where we needed the immodium - and right before our helicopter tour!
