Please be advised that credit cards are hardly accepted. The local currency is the Dominican Pesos. There are places where you can change money in each village. Easiest to change is the US$ cash or travelers checks and the Euro

Don´t forget to bring a sun block lotion with a high SPF. In winter the temperature goes down in the evening, then it´s fine to have a vest with you.
