Playa Real, Juan Dolio, San Pedro de Macoris province, Dominican Republic.
Cayo Levantado is a small island off the city of Samana in the Dominican Republic. We took the Whale Samana tour, watching Humpback whales. You can pay an extra $5 and they will take you to this island on the way back to Samana. Beautiful!

Been many times to this resort and quality has decreased a lot. Roaches in room every night. Not enough beach and pool chairs. Waiters were not courteous. Restaurants and buffet are just ok (food used to be so great). Sorry Lopesan. Hope it gets better when the expansion opens.
