I agree with you about PC. As I mentioned in one of your other videos when we first visited Dr we went to Santa Domingo first because a friend who lived in NY had a condo in Boca Chico and let us stay there. We stayed in that area for two weeks and went to PC and fell In love with PC. I agree that PC is more laid ack than Santa Domingo . I’m from a big city in the states but I have gotten use to the suburban lifestyle. When you get older you will appreciate the PC lifestyle. I live in Cap Cana now and I love it. The first time we were here we lived in Cocotal golf course but coming back her a cap Cana was more my life style.

Jay, another very good video! I laughed when you said people think New Yorkers are rude. Born and raised in NY and I always hear we are "rude" but truly, New Yorkers are not rude. We're just "forward". We tend to say what's on our minds and we generally tell it like it is. Some people mistake that for rude. 😋 We currently live between Miami and Ft. Lauderdale & in this area I feel people can be rude as hell, entitled, etc. 🤗I know, coming from FLL, you know what I mean. I agree, Macao Beach is beautiful and the fish is to die for. By the way, it's actually pronounced "Ma - cow". We are building our retirement house in Punta Cana right now. Can't wait to get down there for good. Yes, lots of tourists but we generally spend most of our time away from them while we're there. There are so many good spots. Bavaro is actually a part of Punta Cana. The whole area from Uvero Alto down to Cap Cana is all Punta Cana, and in Bavaro are where most of the resorts are as you said.

Punta cana is good for rental income. I'm from NY and Santo Domingo does give you that city vibe. But i'd like to hear your top 5 beaches. Maybe that would be a good video topic for your next video. Also Los Corales has a nice vibe with La Bruja restaurant! Also Drink Point and infinity night club not toofar from thier as well. And down by the beach they have a vibrant area of restaurants karaoke bars etc. I was just there last week. I would have split the trip and drive out to SD , but i figured SD deserves it own trip. (I didn't forget about our meet up to settle where the best restaurant is) But great video.

@JayAbroad
@JayAbroad 2 месяца назад
Yes, it's a lot of competition here in Santo Domingo. Pretty much around the entire island where there is a lot of tourism for example, Santo Domingo, Punta Cana, Boca Chica, Puerto Plata, Sosua, Caberete, Las Terrenas, etc. Not saying you can't make money but it is competition so go in know that and figure out what will separate your property from others. I still believe Punta Cana and Santo Domingo are good areas but you have to make sure they are in the right location.

I like Las Terrenas too. Beautiful beaches and very vibrant to be such a small town. Airbnb investment in Bavaro is good one, but remember there a lot of competition there. I don't recommend anyone to invest in property solely for Airbnb because of this. If you can afford it the property if you didn't make a Dime from Airbnb do but not solely depending on income from Airbnb.

I don't think anything of it. It's all propaganda, in my opinion. I personally don't see it, i dont feel it, nor have I experienced it here.
