Las Terranas Town, Samana Province, Dominican Republic - Caribbean island holiday
Watch all our Gran Bahia Principe El Portillo videos here:
We are in the town of Las Terrenas located in the Samaná province of the Dominican Republic. This is a walking tour of the town which starts on the Las Terranas main road and also includes a walk on the beach road. We where there in December and this is actually New Year (31/12). The video follows our walk up the main road where we try to give the viewer an idea of the atmosphere of this rather small Caribbean island fishing town. The main road offers tourists a limited number of shops, restaurants and excursion sale agents. On the beach road there are a few more restaurants and bars and also a very limited local shopping center. As tourists who enjoy visiting local towns in the destinations we visit we where rather disappointed with the Town of Las Terranas. Our opinion (just our opinion) was that the town lacked the local (Dominican) business and culinary experiences that you for example meet in Asia. Street kitchens etc. although local art was very abundant!! The Les Terranas area is full of hotels catering to all needs. Many of the hotels are big all inclusive resorts which are very popular with Canadian and American tourists, also the European charter tourists who typically seem to stay at these resorts for 14 days (just as we ourselves did).

Traveling To Las Terrenas, Dominican Republic: Top Things To Do in 2019
From the air, Sublime Samana in Las Terrenas looks like your typical sprawling, five-star beachfront resort. Choose between a one or two-bedroom suite or opt for more privacy and space in a two or three-bedroom casita. Deciding between the two on-site restaurants, Bistro and Beachside Grill Palapa, is a win-win situation. If you want romance, it’s a no-brainer on nights when Beachside hosts special events on the beach, and you can eat under the lights with your toes in the sand. If you don’t want to bother with looking at menus offering so many tempting dishes, just ask for the catch of the day or the ceviche. While there’s plenty to do on-site and you’ll be tempted to stay put, I recommend you explore the surroundings a bit. Horseback riding to Cascada El Limon or driving for 10 minutes into the lively old town are just a few of the alternatives.
