What is a typical expat home or apartment like in Dominican Rep?
We asked expats what a typical home or apartment in Dominican Rep is like. They answered...
"Expat homes and apartments in the Dominican Republic tend to be modern and comfortable, with air conditioning, cable TV, and internet access. Many expats choose to live in gated communities, which offer a range of amenities such as swimming pools, gyms, and tennis courts. Expat homes and apartments often come with a maid and gardener, and many have private terraces or balconies with views of the Caribbean Sea," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Dominican Rep.
"There are no expats here. I have a 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom single storey house with a large garden. It is a typical house for a middle class Dominican," commented one expat who made the move to Santo Domingo, Dominican Rep.
