Samaná Prices & Travel Costs

Last Updated: Dec 2021

Well out on a northern peninsula, Samaná is still a bit of a secret destination among Dominican Republic fans. Its isolation has kept it more unspoiled than other resort areas, but thanks to a new modern airport and increased development activity, the area is sure to gain in popularity.

Is Samaná Expensive or Cheap?

More untouched than other parts of the Dominican Republic, Samaná plays host to beautiful water front views, whale watching, and some great dining. Being more of an isolated and less crowded part of the country, visitors here will find smaller crowds and a few mid-range hotels and resorts. Some of the hotels are located right on the beach, while others slightly just off of the beach.
