Don't Visit Las Terrenas Dominican Republic Unless You Want This 😳 

Thanks for watching everyone! 🤗 You can find more info on our First Ever GROUP TRIP to Greece here 👉 trovatrip.com/trip/europe/greece/greece-with-anna-and-trevor--delaney-sep-2024 Stay Delightful ✌- Anna & Trevor

You need to visit in the future the south in Dominican Republic 🇩🇴, Barahona and Pedernales, amazing beaches, rivers and mountains

The beaches are stunning! BTW, it's cool seeing you guys rocking the quad cycle.

Hellooo from Belgium, been there in November but unfortunately the weather was no too good anyway, we really loved this place and had a long walk along Playa Las Ballenas, really huge beach and so peacefull. We also been there on a Friday and Saturday, was really quiet in terms of tourists. This Island is full of beautiful places to see. Can't wait to be there again in several days 😍🤩🌴 Loved your video, again full of good informations and advices, keep on doing this and making us dream.

Omg..that place looks like paradise for sure…so so beautiful…love your apt as well…Great video..lots of great info for tourists ❤️

I enjoy watching your videos. You are both very informative. Also, for anyone reading this and having been to the Dom. Republic 34 times myself, I will confirm that Trevor and Anna's information is ACCURATE, which is important. I had to smile when you mentioned in a previous Las Terrenas video that someone was a bit snarky that you keep L.T. low profile. That happened to me as well. I was having coffee with my wife, in disbelief that I had bought a Le Monde newspaper. I made a comment that I couldn't wait to tell my friends that they needed to know about the tony French enclave. At that moment a French man came over to our table and said, "No, don't tell anyone about Las Terrenas. We don't want that." And he told me sternly too. Nice beaches, relaxed atmosphere, just be a little low key around the French, lol. Great job, both of you!!

Hello, beautiful place in the DR Las Terrenas. Thank you for showing us!! 🇩🇴🇩🇴✌🏾✌🏾

Samaná es una maravilla de la naturaleza. De mis lugares favoritos en RD. Ustedes ya son parte de República Dominicana. Muy buen video.

Thank you for showing the true beauty of my native homeland (born in Santo Domingo). Raised in NYC since I was 8 months old, I haven't visited DR enough over the years and I often miss it. May it always be good to you good people. Que viva Quisqueya! ❤🇩🇴❤

Looks peaceful and beautiful!!!

Catching up on x1.5. I haven’t been here for a bit. Great to see you!❤

Great timing for your Las Terrenas video. I am planning for a trip in December and looking up flights and apartments. Haven’t pulled the trigger but this has sealed the deal. Thanks for your videos guys.

I loved this one! Well rounded! Lots of outdoor shots plus your indoor accommodations, plus food! it was the perfect balance! 🥰

So excited to hear that another person booked for the Greece trip. Can’t wait to meet you guys and the rest of the peeps 😁 and I still need to do a Las Terrenas trip next time I’m in the DR. Those beaches look magical, but saving all my time for Crete. ✌🏼

Another great video as always! Thank you!!!

Great video. Visiting Las Terrenas now and love it!!! So many beautiful beaches and the Dominicans are so very friendly! Cant wait to be here for 3 months at a time!

Thank you for the video. i miss Las Terrenas

Looks like absolute paradise there! It’s positive to hear that there have been infrastructure improvements in Las Terrenas 😊

Another Awesome Video Trevor & Anna Thank You🙂❤👍Watching from NB Canada🙂🙂🙂

Hi guys. We just got back from 9 wks in LT and loved it there. We had no problem using our Scotiabank debit card anywhere. Restaurants, grocery stores, bars etc. After holy week the town drastically changed. It was way more quiet. One Dominican restaurant we liked was Rincon Soleado. The happy hour drinks were great.

Hey guys went to Las Terrenas after seeing one your videos , loved it ❤ Stunning place . Do a video about the real state there please 🙏 U guys r so lucky ☀️ 🏝☀️🏝😎

I'll be there on the next week 🤩

Woww Paradise 🍺🍺 I really love your channel and your focus on DR , I definitely must visit!

5:54 Trevor 😅😅😅😅 your suntan is great. Revela que la estas pasando muy bien

Hey guys went to Las Terrenas after seeing one your videos like two years ago , stunning loved it ❤ Do a video about the real state down there please 🙏 U guys r so lucky 🏝☀️🏝😎

Looking forward to your video about your search for a place to buy in Cabarete or LT.

It was so great spending timing in las terrenas with you ❤ miss you cuties

Mi pareja favorita gracias por otro gran video como solo ustedes lo saben hacer

Thanks for love my country Dominican Republic 🇩🇴

The most beautiful country 🥳🥳🥳 🇩🇴

Hi guys! Would be so kind to make a video comparing Samaná and their best parts to Punta Cana and which one is best to live in your opinion? I would really appreciate.

Hi, thanks for more great footage of LT, I was there in March for 10 days and used my Canadian CIBC debit card at restaurants, grocery stores, and little specialty shops. I absolutely love it there, the only drawback I have to agree with you is the road, since I walk everywhere I often felt afraid to cross it! I would suggest not staying right off that road unless you don't mind load noise lol

Beautiful beeches

Fyl the local airport is awesome So quick and easy How ever direct flights are limited

It was not founded by Italians but rather indigenous Dominicans ; then English went there.. and some Other migration from France, canada and Italy . Samana was always a small fish village and many Santo Domingo residents moved there by an order of an ex president Leónidas Trujillo. It was very rural back in the days.

Awesome beach! If there are so many palm trees, what about the coconuts? Are they cheap, how good are they?

I believe prices are increasing because they are going to build a new highway that will connect Santiago and Santo domingo with Puerto plata in like 2 hrs vs 3:30 hrs drive from santo domingo

*Samana has always had interesting history:* _"...Samanas history of cultural interactions began in 1493. The first hostile encounter between Europe and the Western Hemisphere took place on January 12, 1493, when an army of Taino Indians shot with bone-tipped arrows at Christopher Columbus’ ship._ _The site where this happened is called the Gulf of Arrows or Bahia de las Flechas.” (Columbus named it.) It is three miles east of the city of Samana. It has no sign to mark it, but the local people know where it is._ _Pirates lived here until the city of Santa Barbara de Samana was founded in 1756 by people from the Canary Islands who were moved by the Spanish government from there to Samana to keep the British from settling in Samana._ _Napoleon Bonaparte wanted to build a capital for his New World Empire in Samana. He had plans drawn up for a new city there to be called Napoleon City, but the British came in and prevented him from building it._ _In addition, Napoleon became involved in wars in Europe, so he gave up this plan. In 1822, Haiti invaded the Dominican Republic and occupied it for twenty-two years._ _It was a bloody occupation._ _The most important event in the development of Samana occurred about this time. Haiti’s leader, Jean Pierre Boyer, made contact with abolitionist groups in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, United States and paid money for them to send to Samana by ship all the freed slaves they could._ _He also paid for their resettlement in Samana. Boyer said he wanted to help the slaves obtain their freedom, but the Dominicans said Boyer wanted to repopulate this area over which he had taken control with people who would support him._ _Nearly six thousand former slaves made the voyage from the United States to the Dominican Republic. Many died in Samana or returned to the United States because they could not adjust to the changes in the climate and culture they found in Samana. About two thousand of them stayed in Samana and prospered._ _These immigrants retained their cultural traditions. They ran their own schools, paying for the importation of English teachers, and maintained Protestant churches (primarily Methodist). Rafael Trujillo, who was dictator of the Dominican Republic from 1930-1938 and 1942-1952, did not like the cultural independence of Samana._ _He introduced the Spanish language into Samana and forced the people to speak it. Anyone heard speaking English was publicly beaten by armed men._ _Most of the people in Samana today are bilingual. The English spoken is colloquial English that was spoken by the slaves in the southern United States a century ago..._ _In 1824 a ship, the Turtle Dove, filled with freed slaves from the United States (slaves who had escaped from the southern part of the United States and run away to the northern part of the United States) left from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania (a state in the northern part of the United States)._ _The ship was purchased by two Protestant sisters named Freeman who were of the Quaker Protestant religious faith._ _The ship was sailing to Liberia, a country in West Africa founded by freed American slaves in 1820. There was a big rainstorm in the Atlantic Ocean in front of Las Terrenas and the ship sank. The freed slaves swam to Las Terrenas._ _They spoke English. Their great grandchildren still live in Las Terrenas and they speak English. They are called cocolos._ _On Sunday, you may attend a religious service at an African Methodist Episcopal (AME) Church in the village of El Limon near Las Terrenas. There you will hear people singing American spiritual hymns in English."_

Another great video guys. Yes the price of real estate y land is so out of control there. There is a high demand for both and people are just trying to cash in. I don’t buy the Covid excuse, Inflation to some extent; but it’s just greed period. Hope you guys find something reasonable to purchase. Thanks for the video guy’s amazing. 👌👌👌

Do you guys have a video on the cost of living in different area of the DR?

unfortunately for sellers homes in Cabarete have been on the market for years thus not selling and they are going down as a result , so like in Las Terrenas don't pay the drastic prices and they will eventually come down to realistic prices. The streets in Cabarete are improving so hopefully at some point they will have street with sidewalks that are walkable. Great video.

So i have been researching for awhile. I keep landing on Las Terrenas, I plan to visit this year, we are looking for a place to get away and maybe purchase a condo. I have normal worries like only speaking English, travel and all the normal things. Your videos really help a lot. Can you get transportation from a major airport without driving yourself to Las Terrenas? It seems more laid back there than places like Punta Cana

You guys just missed going to Greece either you guys as I had already made plans b4 I heard about your tip, and were going in July,2025, God willing. But I’m hoping you do one to the DR, and if I haven’t been there by then, I’m definitely joining you two!!❤️🫶

Hey, I'm going there in a few days. Can you recommend me the company you used to book an ATV for a week? I would greatly appreciate the contact! :) Thank you for the video.

Hi guys: I’ve noticed lots of Airbnbs say that they charge separately for light( electricity). For example the one you guys are staying in says u have to pay after 20 kilos at 15 DR pesos per Kilo. Do you know what that works out to be? And is 20 kilos the average used in a month? I mean I’d be paranoid about what my bill would be. Is there a counter you can look at to see how much you’ve used?

Where in DR would be the best place to live for north American expat? Las Terranas is one of my favorites

❤❤❤❤

2:30 Palm trees aren’t the same as coconut trees, or are they?

Dont be surprise if u see vin diesel walking around ..he have a house there...he always with his fast car too there

Thanks for producing. Love RU-vid. I don't know how to become a youtuber😢

Is it a Canadian bank thing? I know for a fact that you CAN use a US bank debit card to pay for things (just as Dominican banks debit cards) anywhere in the DR.

Hi do they have any dominicans restaurants. I would like to see Dominican Cuisine

What time of year are you there?

Very nice place, huuuuuuu

Are you guys gonna busy the desert? There is a small one in the DR

Hi, I'm looking to purchase a 2bdrm condo in playa las ballenas they are asking for usd363k in front of the beach. Is that too much for that area?

How has the sargassum been in the DR?

Do y’all get to stay at the Airbnb for free as a collaboration?

❤🏝☀️🏝

Which beach in Las Terrenas were you at in the opening scene? Playa Colson? Playa Bonita?

According to the history I read USA President Ulysses Grant was going to annex the DR after the emancipation of slave but was blocked by one us senator thought many blacks settled in Samana. I never heard of Italian settlers

Most underrated town in Dominican Republic.

Hey Trever, how come you never try Bohemia. Personally, l think Bohemia is the best beer l ever tasted in my whole life. When l go to the DR l only drink Dominican Bohemia, simply the best and it’s a bit cheaper than Presidente. Can you give Bohemia another chance?

We agree that Las Terrenas is a dream vacation spot.

Whats the Name of the beach?

Might it (less people) have to do with what’s going on in Haiti?

If u get into an accident u will be glad u have a helmet on your head
