Playa Bonita beach

Playa Bonita is a beach in west end of Las Terrenas in Dominican Republic. It's almost as good as the main beach of Las Terrenas. But there are also some differences. There is almost no algae here. As for the bad things, there are strong waves. So this is not the best place for small children. Shore and seabed: sand, stones. [edit]

Hotels [edit]

In Playa Bonita hotels, rooms' fares start from US$100 per night. You may also choose from any hotels in the main town of Las Terrenas (from US$30). In any case, all of these are located within a walking distance from each other.

How to get there [edit]

Main airports in Dominican republic: Punta Cana international airport (PUJ), Santo Domingo international airport (SDQ) and Puerto Plata international airport (POP).

It is convenient to use a taxi, which is relatively inexpensive. For example, a trip from south to north of the country can cost $100.

To move between the small towns you may use minibuses (shuttle buses). Locals call them gua-gua. One ride costs a few dollars. Bus stations are called parada.

There is also good bus transport system in the country. We recommend Caribe Tours and Metro companies. Buses are brand new, and travel from one end of the country to another will cost about $10.

Though all prices given above are in U.S. dollars, it is better to have local money (peso) when traveling around the country.

When to go [edit]

Feel free to relax in Dominicana any time of year. The sea is warmest in summer, but the heat is the most intense as well. And there is also a hurricane season from June to October. On the other side, the winter weather is more comfortable, but seawater at the northern coast is too cold that time.
