Museo Fernando Peña Defilló
Museum
👍 Beautiful facilities, very well preserved. The museum is small, with a limited number of works, but apart from the honored paintings by Peña Defilló, temporary exhibitions are shown. Admission is free and the museum is centrally located in the colonial area.

👍👍 Luca and Katie were great diving hosts in Boca Chica. We emailed ahead of our trip and they were ultra-responsive, provided lots of details about the costs and process, and their package prices were excellent compared to what we paid to dive in Bayahibe. Luca was very good with our 10-year old dau...

👍👍 A special place with unique geographical characteristics. Ideal for river hiking and canyoning. The river bed does not always have water flowing but still worth the visit, especially if it has plenty of water. Stunning and beautiful

Numismatic and Philatelic Museum
Museum
👍 Interesting history of gold, silver, and money in the history of Dominican Republic up until today. I can't read much Spanish, but it was still enjoyable. ID taken and returned on leaving. It can be a little tricky to understand procedures when entering--even if you do know a little Spanish.

🫤 I’ll be giving both the positives and negatives from my surgicoordinator experience. Do NOT book The Princess Recovery Home. The place looks nothing like the pictures (the pictures are from 2016). They have a bug infestation and yes they do crawl on you while you sleep. Keep in mind, you’ll have op...
