Provincia de Puerto Plata Villa / apartment in or near sosua & car hire
Posted: Sun April 1, 2007 11:24 AM UTC
Hi we are looking for a 2 or 3 bedroom self catering place to rent for 3 weeks next january in or within very easy walking distance of the beach / shops in sosua.Ideally we would like a small villa / bungalow with a pool - but would be glad to hear of any suggestions - especially if people can recommend somewhere where they have had a good experience! we're on a resonably tight budget - somewhere around or preferably under £600 per week. We've looked at Villa Brigitte but it's just a little too far away from the town - we're going to hire a car for part of our stay but not all of it. Also, does anyone have any suggestions for good CHEAP car hire in Sosua? thanks ever so much

as for the car rental u need tobe careful as most come with very little in car insurance my best bet is going to a reputuble place or rent one thru avis or another company where you are from prepay for it and pick it up at airport that way u save money over renting it in sosua cause renting cars here is very expensive due to high insurance coverages be extra carefull driving at nite as many horses and animals on dimly lit roads as are lots of big pot holes and many cars travel with very little lights on and obey no traffic signs ; I rented for 1 week but travelled mostly during days or at nite on roads i knew very well if you know what kind of vehicle u;ll be renting buy the sylvania ultra halogen bulbs for that car and when u get there put them on the car as most rentals have very poor lights on their cars u;ll be glad u did ; hope this helps
