Absolutely amazing, will be coming back
This experience was nothing less than great. Donal ensured we had an excellent time. The meet up point was a little walk outside the port. Once we met, we drove to Monkeyland where is more than that. They have live cigar rolling demonstrations as well as cocoa and coffee making demonstrations. After, we drove down to the ranch where we did our horseback riding. The rode through the country side in the forest on on the beach where our guides picked fresh fruits such as mangos, passion fruit, guava, and more straight from the trees for us to enjoy and eat while we ride. After our ride we sat back and drank coconut water from the coconuts complimentary of the tour. This is a must book tour, you won’t regret it.

This one is a No Go.
The ride through the countryside was filthy. Trash everywhere. We rode on the beach about 2 minutes. It was trashy also. Our horses were small. The guide, Ariel, was very nice, but I can not recommend this excursion.

Great massage at Ying Yang Spa, Lifestyles Holiday Vacation Club, Puerto Plata, Dominican Republic
This is a repeat of the review I gave a year ago. Back again, and the massage I had today with Denisse at the Lifestyles Holidays Vacation Club resort in Puerto Plata was one of the best I have ever had.
Denisse was totally professional at all times. She identified and expertly worked over my numerous knots and tight spots. She finished with more soothing strokes that left me quite
