Do you want to know the major differences between...?
Punta Cana (Bavaro) and Puerto Plata ?
1. Punta Cana is a large hotel strip with nice beaches, but far away from anything,so not much more than a tourist area. Town is about 45 miles away!
2. Puerto Plata is the first tourist area in the D.R., with so many thing to do and to discover (too many to write down) and the colonial town is only 15 min away from every resort ! Mountains, beaches, shopping, cable car, Ocean World, 58 Cincocho cigar factory and museums......
So before booking ask your travel agent what is best for you....

well said. as a man who's family is from there, and has been all over there, I gotta say you hit the nail on the head. but u missed the girl clubs in Puerto Plata city. lol!
Puerto Plata is a much better spot. And Cabarete is right there. and the fish fry joints in Maimon off the highway. c'mon! no contest. And Puerto Plata is usually cheaper

I agree If you like to mingle with local culture, even sleazy ghetto conditions and hookers, go to Puerto Plata. But many folks just want to get lazy on a tropical pristine beach for vacation. Punt Cana fits that bill.
