Hey Coco, thanks for taking us over the Bayahibe area man. You must be very careful when investing in new places there. I've been hosted in many of those new-construction buildings and their finishes are terrible, even though they look amazing in the outside, however, the Estrella Dominicus place you visited later, that's a totally different story, that is class man. They are the DOMIS group, the same developer that is constructing Aqua Esmeralda on the beach. One of the pluses that the area has is that unlike the rest of the country, the utilities are VERY stable there. You must have noticed a power plant right on the main Dominicus road that guaranties electricity to the entire town and all of those hotels on the beach, and speaking of electricity, not even the Casa De Campo road in La Romana has lighting all the way from the Highway-3 to the town as Dominicus has. With all the hotels already there contributing $$ to the state, the growing construction, and the strategic port to Saona Island, it is definitely another Punta Cana in the making. I've been following you for a while and appreciate your videos. Thanks for posting.

@@caseyknoble6276 Hello and thanks for the comments!! I don’t have a video on the AC system. Most people selling their cars with AC issues say “it just needs Freon”, but most of the time it more complicated and more expensive to get it fixed. It could be some sort of leak somewhere but it could be a number of things and it usually calls for special equipment and experience to properly repair. I wish you the best! Peace and Blessings!!

First, I want you to mention a country that is one hundred percent safe. And second, it all depends on where you go or live. And third, I don't understand how. live there if you are not safe although you said you felt safe I think that deep down in your heart you are not safe in my country and I am very sorry for that. And I also want to tell you that I know foreign white people who live in my country and nothing has ever happened to them.

Whats up Joe, goods heads up! I have to say, we spent a few days in Dominicus/ Bayahibe and we felt very safe at night walking around. Its a small quaint town and everyone was very friendly and attentive. Now Santo Domingo on the other hand is way to congested and some neighborhoods are ok. but when you go out at night you have to keep your head on a swivel just as a precaution. For the most part I found D.R. very safe, and the waze app gets you everywhere door to door! I recommend people rent a car and explore, there is so much more to D.R. than just resorts!!
