VIP BEACH CLUBS

THE PERFECT PLACE

BEGIN WITH THE

Journey 90 miles southeast of Florida and

you’ll find yourself in an island paradise

with average temperatures of 84°F, no

hurricanes, and stunning tropical scenery.

The North Coast of the DR has long been

a haven for expats who want first world

services and lifestyle along with a relaxed,

Caribbean vibe.

LOCATION REALLY IS EVERYTHING.

Puerto Plata international airport is just

10-minutes away, excellent grocery stores

abound, a modern hospital is in our

backyard and you’ll never get tired of the

variety of restaurants.

Locally grown produce and meats offer

better priced alternatives to North

America. Freshness is the name of game.

Watch your health improve and your

satisfaction with life go up.

Like to golf? Surf or paddle board? How

about tennis or horseback riding? Maybe

you’d just like to be part of a book club

or enjoy dinner on the beach? This area

offers unlimited activities.

The DR government is very foreign

investor friendly with low taxes and

simple residency process.

Overall, you’ll find prices are lower,

quality of life higher, friendships stronger

and services similar to North America.

You don’t even need to know Spanish!

English is spoken at most restaurants and

service centers.

The North Coast of Dominican Republic

LOCAL COMMUNITIES

Many local events are held along the

beach, and nighttime is especially pretty as

restaurants light up the night and bring

tables onto the sand for starlight dining.

Cabarete is well known as a kite and

windsurfing capital. This little town has

grown up to be an active community with

modern services, shopping, medical

facilities, and community events.

Other activities include stand up paddle

boarding, enjoying lunch or dinner at great

restaurants, exploring the local caves or

protected lagoon, taking a tour or

excursion, or simply relaxing on the

beautiful beach.

Expat centred Sosua offers one of the

most beautiful beaches on the island with

powdery sand and crystal clear blue water.

There are also incredible, clear rivers

perfect for swimming and relaxing.

Sosua also offers big box grocery

shopping, a modern hospital and a huge

variety of restaurants.

The history of this seaside town is very

unique. In the early 1940's many Jewish

settlers arrived here to escape the

persecution of war. There is a small Jewish

museum detailing the history of the

refugees.

Named for the silvery hues of its natural

harbor, the city is surrounded by

mountains. Visitors can enjoy the only

aerial tramway in the Caribbean and ride to

the top of Pico Isabel de Torres, a 793

metre high mountain. The top features a

botanical garden.

Another must stop is the Fortaleza San

Felipe, a historic Spanish fortress used to

protect the city from pirates in the mid

1500's. Today it is used as a museum.

Puerto Plata is a 1/2 hour away and offers

big box store shopping, hospitals and

other services.

CABARETE is a cosmopolitan

beach village with a bohemian flare.

Its coral reef protected bay is

dotted with diverse restaurants,

as well as quaint shops; water

sports abound.

SOSUA:

Enjoy a leisurely walk around

town, shop, snorkel, take a dive,

go fish, head out on a catamaran.

Soak up the sun! Sosua has it all!

PUERTO PLATA:

Founded in the early 1500's,

Puerto Plata was designed by

Christopher Columbus

and his brother, Bartolome.
