Las Terrenas in the DR is like heaven

We've just returned from ten days in the Dominican Republic, including four days in beautiful Las Terrenas. Can you image a more heavenly spot? The picture above was taken at a beach club called "Paco Cabana". It's a relatively new restaurant, bar and beach club featuring fabulous French inspired food, a full bar with tropical drinks, and plenty of comfy spots for lounging and sun bathing.

In just five months since our last trip, there are new restaurants, new development projects under construction, and noticeable improvements to the municipal airport, El Portillo. There is almost no beachfront land available for development besides relatively small parcels.

Also worth mentioning, the newly opened El Catey, Samana International Airport is receiving flights from Canada and Europe, and soon there will be flights arriving from the US.
