Playa Nueva Romana beach

Playa Nueva Romana is a small resort beach on the Caribbean coast of Dominican Republic. There are many tall palms on the shore, while tourist infrastructure is excellent. However, what awaits you in the water totally spoils the overall feeling of the place. Most likely that the beach is artificial. So the water is muddy, the bottom is not quite pleasant, and there is coastal erosion in some places. However, a good hotel can compensate all of these downsides. Shore and seabed: sand, stones.

Hotels [edit]

Rooms' fares in the hotels of Nuevo Romana start from US$300 per night. This is a reasonable price for luxury villas and apartments, but still expensive for such an average beach.

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.
