Caribbean

I'll be going through San Juan twice in October with 5 hour lay overs each time, in the middle of the day. What can one do in 5 hours to get out of the airport and see some of the city? I'm female traveling alone, so would appreciate any info on worthwhile sites worth checking out in such a limited time, and how to get around in a safe & inexpensive manner.

I will be going to DR in a few months, and while I am spenidng the majority of my time in Santo Domingo, and the coastline...I would like to spend a few days somewhere in the interior...preferably in a town near or in mountain scenery. Where would you recommend?

Thanks!

hi,
I'm thinking about coming to DR to do some kitesurfing in Cab/Punta Cana area. Just wondering if there is such a thing as 'hostels' or cheap hotels in the area. I'm used to simple rooms without the extras - I'm a bit of an adventurer so I'm usually doing other stuff and prefer not sitting around in my hotel, I'm even willing to sleep in a tent, if it's permitted. I'm also a solo traveller and I avoid the all inclusive thing so please tell me if I should look elsewhere to spend time during…

How are the Tradewinds condos for rentals? Is the pool and condos good maintaining and the beaches close? Okay for lady visit or is family place? What is best place and not expensive $30 for night with breakfast.

Can anyone tell me about these places?

I realize inexpensive isn't really in the vocabulary but do you have any suggestions of cheaper places to stay and where!
Ideally I would be on the beach, of course!!
I fly in on Oct 2nd, 9pm... and don't have anything booked... should I?!
Do places fill up quickly?!
I'm alone, don't mind hostels nor grass huts!
Please hook me up with some suggestions if you have any!
Super appreciated!
Happy travels!
