Is Las Terrenas Really Better than Punta Cana? 🤔 🇩🇴 Dominican Republic Travel 2022

  • So many people come to the Dominican Republic and only visit Punta Cana, or they come to Las Terrenas and compare the area to Punta Cana, so we made a video comparing Las Terrenas to Punta Cana.
    We start the video on the beaches of Las Terrenas near El Portillo. There is no one else on this beautiful white sand beach with clear water. There aren't many places in Punta Cana where you can have the beach to yourself!
    Because some people don't like sitting on a blanket on the beach, we later head up the road to Porto by Mosquito. It's a beach restaurant but they also have beach chairs/loungers. So you can spend the day, have food and drinks and access to bathrooms.
    After the beach we head to our apartment rental in town and have a swim in the pool (we'll do an apartment tour in the next video). Just like in Punta Cana, most places in Las Terrenas have a pool as well.
    Lastly, we head out for dinner to a Mexican restaurant in Las Terrenas called La Catina, here we have pastor tacos and flautas. We ate at a Mexican restaurant in Punta Cana so we figured it was fitting!

      @@daiglemary89 Hi Christine! The flights depend on where you fly in to (which airport). We just track costs on Google Flights (and a few others). The prices change all the time. We haven't stayed at a resort here so we can't really recommend one. There is a Viva Wydham and Bahia Principe here that may be good options though 😀 - Trevor

    Used to work in las Terrenas and now working in punta Cana I know really well both places... I must say I miss so much the bohemian life of las Terrenas, the feeling I was living on paradise I don't have it here in PC. Samana zone is such exuberant, natural and full of amazing and unbelievable beaches, landscapes, mountains, waterfall, national parks and you got all these places only for you. Punta Cana in other hand have a very good night life but it's doesn't fell like Dominican life wich it is okay to me.

    As a Dominican born and raised, I prefer Las Terrenas to Punta Cana. But it wouldn't be fair to compare them or to choose which one is better. They are totally different places. Beaches are different, the landscape is different. Even the rainfall average is different. I believe that it depends on what you're looking for and what kind of hotel you are looking to stay in.

    Never tire of seeing the beautiful beaches and all the scenery. Always an interesting topic LT, Punta Cana and then there is Cabarete also. Each have there own pros and cons but I have to say that as a Canadian, Punta Cana is just easier to travel to and more affordable esp for AI resorts. So it all depends on what you are looking for. For long visits I can see that exploring all the different areas is more interesting and really appreciate you sharing your adventures with us.

    Hello guys, hope you are doing well, my first trip to Las Terrenas happend when I was 9 years old, I’m 62 now, I travel to DR every year and every year I go to Las Terrenas, my favorite spot in DR, to me, much better than Punta Cana by a lot. Back in time on my first trip over there, there were not town, just a few houses that belong to the native fishermen, that place was complete virgin, beautiful, extremely peaceful, we used to sleep on the beach with the starts and the moon on top of us, and the sound of the ocean right next to us, good memories, it was great, since then it had change a lot but I still love that place. Every year my wife and I celebrate our wedding anniversary there and this year is not the exception. Last year we stay in a non all inclusive hotel, this year we will try an all inclusive. As always, love your videos. Great job. Keep it going. Best wi

    Hi guys, beautiful video loved the quality, cinematography, fantastic job. Well done. The Bavaro area was like that, lush, empty beaches and difficult to access with various fishing villages. Bavaro/Punta Cana/Cap Cana is becoming destination of entertainment with clubs, concerts, film festivals, theme parks, restaurants, planned communities surrounded with great beaches. World class marina. My concern is that Samana is the quintessential beachcomber destination with a ting of chic and diverse flavors, could be over build with all-inclusive and mega hotels. Thank you.

    Las Terrenas is one of my favorite spots in the DR. But I have to respectfully disagree with the title of your video "Is Las Terrenas Really Better than Punta Cana?". You compared Las Terrenas to Bavaro, not Punta Cana. I own a home in the real Punta Cana. Punta Cana is actually a small area. All the resorts in Bavaro use the name Punta Cana because it's much better for marketing purposes.
    Punta Cana specifically started out as a company name, a brand created in the early 1970s by Frank Rainieri, for a piece of land originally called Punta Borrachón (Drunkard’s Point). That area today is called the Punta Cana Resort & Club which also includes the Punta Cana Airport and Punta Cana Village.
    Here is a brief history of Punta Cana: Back in 1969 a group of American investors, headed by Ted Kheel, bought 30 square miles of undeveloped land stretching along five miles of the east coast of the Dominican Republic in the province of La Altagracia. The land was mostly impenetrable jungle and bush with no access roads and only a handful of small fishing villages dotted along the coast. But the beaches were among the most beautiful on the island with their white sand, coconut palms, crystal-clear waters and protective coral reefs. A few years later, Dominican entrepreneur Frank R. Rainieri joined them with his vision to create a resort community (Punta Cana Resort & Club) that respects the natural habitat while providing visitors with a world-class vacation experience. At the time the area was called Punta Borrachón (Drunkard’s Point), Frank Rainieri wisely decided to rename it Punta Cana, after the fan-shaped Cana palm leaf that flourishes in the area. Bavaro is Not Punta Cana. You guys put great videos together. I really enjoy watching them. Hope you don't mind my input.

      Although real estate investment is growing specifically in las terrenas, i believe that Samaná will continue with these virgin paradises for a longer time, since the government and entrepeneurs chose new destinations to turn into what Punta Cana is today, which are Cabo Rojo Pedernales and miches el seibo, apart from the fact that the expansion in puntacana and la romana continues, and puerto plata will recover as the tourist destination that it was in its beginnings, this is a summary of what is happening and what is to come in dominican tourism

  • @walemany1

    Punta Cana has many new developments, with gated communities with cookie-cutter homes, feels very sterile, someone even dared and called it a concrete jungle……Las Terranas has both a local and a expat population. Here you can immerse yourself in the culture, with many different restaurants and establishments where you can genuinely feel that you’re in the Dominican Republic… And this is coming from a Dominican who was born and raised in the United States……

    Punta Cana has the benefits of having the airport within a 10 minutes drive but after that I feel like it's a tourist trap. The haggling and the sellers are a bit annoying to me. But you have so many more choices in hotels.
    Terrena has an international airport but getting there is very limited even for me who lives in the NYC metro area. But the journey is worth it if you're looking for a more secluded vacation spot that offers more pristine beaches and local business activities.
    My first trip to Samaná I landed in Santo Domingo and rented a car and took the drive.
