Hey travelfreak,
The Dominican Republic is awesome. I've been 3 times and each time has been so much fun. I usually stay in the capital (Santo Domingo) or in the beach resorts nearby (Juan Dolio, Boca Chica). The people are friendly, the beaches are amazing and best of all it's super cheap.
The capital has tons of little museums and buildings to see from the 1st Spanish settlers, including the oldest Cathedral in this part of the world. They also have a huge building with a tomb where they say Christopher Columbus is buried. Within the building there is a museum about the discovery of the Americas. I could go on and on...go check it out for yourself.

When I went I actually stayed on the other end of the island from Santo Domingo, in Sosua. From what I have heard it tends to be a bit calmer (the people/activity/pace of daily life-not the waves!) than the capital. Anyway, it was beautiful and I flew in to a smaller airport about an hour by car from Sosua (can't remember the name of the airport, but I'm sure you could find it online). I flew jetblue from NYC at an off-peak time of day (late at night, really really early a.m) and it was VERY cheap. Whatever you do, I don't think you can go wrong. Have fun!

I just spent a week in the Dominican Republic and did a few nights in Santo Domingo (which I really loved) and then a few nights on the Samana Peninsula in Samana and La Galeras.

It was more expensive than I thought to do the DR independently so I may look into a package deal if I ever go back.

Again, I really enjoyed Santo Domingo and I didn't even do any of the tourist attractions. I enjoyed just walking around and people watching. It is a beautiful place, especially the Zona Colonial.
