You need to add something for medical, dental, vision and incidentals. Also a clothing allowance, vehicle expense, etc.
Great idea. Thanks. :-)
wife and I have been visiting Puerto Plata yearly, sometimes multiple times since 2012. I always said I wanted to move there, or at least buy a place there. great information! Thanks!
Thank you for sharing!
Some fantastic information (as usual). Just following your * Hobby Income Course* and I must say, I have been pursuing many income making systems on the internet over the last 10 years (yes, sad but true :( ) and your Hobby Income course has to be the simplest and most comprehensive course I have EVER taken. What has amazed me most of all is that you have eliminated all the BS and packed some very powerful information in only 9 lessons!!! Great Work, I really appreciate your information, credit where credit is due!
Hello Easy Training Guides, thank you for your personal note of encouragement. It really does make a difference for us when we know people appreciate what we are doing. Your comments also cause TH-cam to show our video to more people so your note is like paying us a small tip $$ for our time. Thank you, Dan
@@VagabondAwake Always welcome Dan, Love Your Work!
Puerto Plata has changed, never used to pay penalty for overstaying😎 I like to swim in Atlantic and Caribbean ocean that I experienced when I was there😎thanksðŸ‘
True. Beautiful water. :-)
Such a beautiful place and the visa overstay is a big bonus. You give a complete detailed description on the living expenses. MCO in MY extended until the daily rate drops below 4K.
Our pleasure!
Nice report. Thank you Dan.
Thanks for watching Mark.
I bought my favourite accessories ring in Puerto Plata! Half price less than Santo Domingo.
Hey Beautiful. Thanks for sharing!
Great info! Can you make a video about Santiago de los Caballeros?
Thanks for the idea Ben. Let me look into that. :-)
Great docu but beer went up and it doesn't rain that much.✌
Thanks for sharing your experience. :-)
I was in Puerto Plata back in 2012 i stayed at life styles resort had a great time
Great story A Yank In The Philippines. Thank you for sharing it with us. Your interaction with our channel helps us get subscribers and views, so we really appreciate it. Best, Dan
We just came back from there last week, we're thinking Cabereta or Sosouia
Great video but I'll probably stay in SE Asia. Thanks!
It's sad but it's needed. Make sure where you're living offers excellent security.
Agreed. :-)
Puerto Plata and Santiago are way safer than Baltimore, Detroit, Kensington Philadelphia and some part of Chicago.
Great! I've been living here since November 2020
Are you a restaurant?
@@hughgrectionstud no but I cook at restaurants on occasions. I'm a pit master from NC
Thank you BBQ VIEW & BREW! Thanks for watching and commenting. :-) Dan
I’m trying to live out there too . You have any info on the resorts there ? I’m Trying to get a job in one of them .
Dan, how would you compare Puerto Plata, Las Terrenas, La Romana for the over 65 demographic retirees looking to get away from crowds and noise but not far from amenities and conveniences??
I haven't been to La Romana but Las Terrenas is lovely.
@@VagabondAwake Is Las Terrenas appropriate for us folks over 60 looking for a quiet time? Videos seem to show it to be run down with narrow streets.....
Where are you finding rent for $300? I've never see anything like that on airbnb
Here you go: vagabondbuddha.com/how-i-find-perfect-apartments-traveling-the-world/
Hi Daniel, am I correct to assume you get antsy if staying in one place too long? 😂😂😂ðŸ™ðŸ™ðŸ™
Normally yes. 1-2 months is usually enough. But were were okay stuck in Dumaguete during the virus lockdown, for 7 months.
Of course, you can make it with $1k in the DR, but ask yourself, does moving to another country on such a low budget make sense? Relocating should enhance your life, and not become a survival training, right? Anywhere you move, you should be able to enjoy your new life, not struggle.
Hi @johnrynkiewicz1607, We have youtube playlists for each of our retire cheap in paradise countries. You will find that information on your requested country there:
th-cam.com/users/VagabondAwakeplaylists
Whereas all our reports on each city in those countries are in our membership catalog here:
vagabondbuddha.com/
Thank you , Dan
You seen to "repeat" the same thing about every city in the Dominican Republic in every video-why?
Some things are the same when cities are near each other, some things are different. But each report includes both in case somebody only reads one.
Hi Dan how about the bugs 🜠or snakes ðŸ? Looks great For a single man.
Mosquitoes yes. Not poison snake in DR. Bugs is not hear about to much.
We didn't see many bugs and we saw no snakes. That doesn't mean they are not there though. Maybe google "Dangerous snakes ad bugs in DR"
@@VagabondAwake There's no dangerous snake in DR.
I've lived in DR for 15 years, this cost of living estimate is dangerously low in the real world. At least double or treble it. Try to live on this in DR and you will be painfully bored and miserable.
If you could share your numbers it would be more useful criticism. Rent, utilities, restaurants, groceries, etc.
This kind of comment is not unusual. This TH-cam video explains why: th-cam.com/video/QuH1KC_moGc/w-d-xo.html
I kind of agree to this comment. Maybe not tripple, but at least double the amount.
The apartment that is mentioned in the video, and you can clearly see on the picture on the website that the "original price" is $630/month for this apartment. Currently as of now it's $21/night. Something you have to realize with the rent for Airbnbs and other similar apartment services during 2020/2021. Because of the pandemic and almost no tourists coming to the DR at least during 2020. The landlords had to lower their prices to at least half or even more, to be able to rent it out to mostly dominicans living in Santiago or Santo Domingo. So an apartment that pre/post pandemic would cost at least $700-800 is would during 2020 and first half of 2021 would be "rebated" to half or even lower.
Then from living here for 10 years, I can say, that very few dominicans would give any kind of discounts, just because you would rent a place for longer periods. There is hardly any difference from renting 1 month or 12 month. They have their set prices for a stay during a couple of days, vs monthly. But trying to negotiate any higher discounts if you stay longer than 1 month, is from personal experience pointless.
I've been living here for 10 years and for the past 3 years I've been paying around $250 for an unfurnitured apartment, and that is without any utilities. Electric bill is around $35-40 during winter and around $80 in summer, when using AC and so. 5$ for water, Internet $100 (but I have high internet speed, you can get lower speeds for as low as $10/month)
Don't really know why you say that Puerto Plata is NOT a tourist town, as it SO much is. I don't know if you were here during 2020, and because of the pandemic and the curfew rules, there weren't that many tourists. But Puerto Plata is a tourist town, and is currently being inundated by tourists. Yeah it's true that the majority are Dominicans, but that could be said about the country as a whole.
Presidente bear for $0.7? Where? For the past couple of years a small bear in any normal store has been around $1 or even more (local price for a small can has been about 60-80 pesos and the dollar is currently at around 57 pesos for 1 dollar), and the "big" one has been for around 130 pesos, so that's $2.
Groceries, well I've been living here for 10 years, and in my family we are 4 people. Me, my wife and our 2 kids, one is a teenager. And I've hardly any month spent less than $1000 on groceries and food in general, and that's included restaurant visits about once a week.
The $40 per week for eating out for two people, yeah that's possible, but it all depends on where and how much you eat. Sometimes you can even share meals, especially during lunch, where they in many local Dominican restaurants serve a big meal for about $5-6 that 2 people could share.
But if you are planning on not eating in these establishments, but rather looking for "traditional" restaurants, expect to spend at least around $20 per person.
So yes, you COULD live her for around $1000/month, I mean the minimum wage here in the DR is around $200-300 and people seem to work that out. But if you are thinking of retiring and living a comfortable life here, expect about $800-1000/month per adult. So if you are a couple, expect around $1500-2000. As one thing that has not been mentioned is longer travels, for example , you wouldn't want to be here for years and ONLY see Puerto Plata. You would want to explore other parts of the country, so how do you do that? Rent a car? Buy a car? Using other arrangements?
Is Puerta Plata reasonably safe for solo female travelers?
We felt safe there. But we always follow these principles no matter where we are in the world, even the USA and Europe: vagabondbuddha.com/how-to-travel-the-world-safely/

What about health insurance
Just Google "Expat health insurance in dominican republic?" and get at least 3 quotes. It varies based upon your age and other factors.
You talk a lot about places to retire, but it is my understanding that a U.S. citizen cannot just say "This is where I want to retire" and then do so. Do any of your videos cover the long, costly, hassled reality of what is required to live elsewhere?
Also, you guys move from place to place in slow travel nomad style, so I guess. the retiring restrictions are not something you have under-taken. Is that so?
That's very good observation. Dan, what do you think?
It is true. This report explains why: vagabondbuddha.com/why-you-should-not-get-a-retirement-visa/
What is the danger level for a 57 yo single woman by herself?
It felt relatively safe to us, but you have to use you common sense. Here are my thoughts on safety in general: vagabondbuddha.com/how-to-travel-the-world-safely/
@@VagabondAwake Thanks so much! 20 years ago I would take off during the days & go exploring while my then husband was working, like in Isla Margarita, Venezuela, go have my adventure, be back at hotel by 5 or 6 to get showered & ready & then dinner with his client's & then disco til 5 AM, sleep til 7 AM then go again. I walked to & from the disco & the guards knew I would be coming in after the disco closed & watch for me, but that was back in 1998 & I felt safe the entire time I was by myself. Now in 1999 a guy in Paris plucked me out of the middle of 4 women I was walking down the street with going to the big flea market & next thing I knew I was in back of a leather store on a stool & I have absolutely no idea how that happened! I miss traveling soo much & now can afford to do it again with your tips! If Venezuela ever settles down, I would suggest Isla Margarita an island off the coast but still a part of Venezuela, I had the time of my life there but I understand it's still too dangerous to return there, which is such a shame, beautiful country with beautiful people being run by a sociopath. I loved to do some tourist things but also get to know the people. Back in the 90's I was a petite little blonde who spoke Spanish fluently so I had no problem in Latin America. Have a beautiful, Blessed & exciting day!
Thank you very much awesome information!!!
Our pleasure!
A think is ok for me a want to move next years am short $100dollars but my extra money only for me a make the adjustment thanks for the información is my best alternative ðŸ‘💯

Thank you F&T! Thanks for watching and commenting. :-) Dan
Great content indeed ..I must ask do you know any RENT TO BUY houses around Puerto plata if you know kindly let me know I've just arrived from England
Sorry, I do not know of one.
Nice video . I’m thinking of moving there . You have any info on jobs at resorts there ? Like availability and how much they pay? I’m Trying to live closer to my family just need info on how to get started ..
We are rolling stones so we never check into jobs or work visas. Sorry about that.
Love the pink tunnel (alley:)
Yes. Great for photos.
Good place and the best hospital for foreigners to live in. However, the hospital if know that you have medical insurance they will sock you.
Thank you James Sikilaa! Your interactions help our channel grow! Have a great day. :-) Dan
I did enjoy the pink alley and also watching you play that hand drum in the band.... Nice work
Awesome! Thank you!
Can't wait for the Cabarete video. You guys do a great job....
Coming soon!
Thanks very good información
You are welcome Carlos.
Thanks Dan
You are welcome Bo.
My friend from NYC lives there with his girlfriend and has invited me there. I am a little worried about the covid situation there now. He has told me things are generally inexpensive.
Do I know your friend? LOL DR covid stats www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/dominican-republic/ Lake worth data projects.tampabay.com/projects/data/coronavirus/en/region/lake-worth/
We thought the prices were reasonable for sure.
I wish I chose to visit Puerta Plata over Santo Domingo. The prices in the DR are double or more than the mainland countries. Personally, I'd rather stick to Central and South America. I always feel like I have a target on my back when I'm in the DR.
Hi Guys. Keep your eyes on Elsa!
We left a few weeks ago. Our videos are always a month of so behind. :-)
Do you have a report for Puerto Plata?
Coming soon. :-)
Great video
Glad you enjoyed it
Ive been here 11 years now
How are the restaurants? International food? How is the sea? Warm, clean, with rocks?
Thanks
Hi David Metzger, Would you like to be a guest start on one of my videos? Here is an example guest star video:th-cam.com/video/ySM_2jAC4v4/w-d-xo.html
The video could be just your voice or we could do a zoom call showing your face. If you would like to be a guest star and share your story please leave a personal message here: vagabondbuddha.com/contact/
Thank you for your comment. If you have a business or service or TH-cam channel you could promote it on the video if you like. Best, Dan
@@VagabondAwake how do I do voice?
@@martinerondeau4802 DR is not a restaurant industry country, specifically Puerto Plata. So not to many international food options. Maybe in the Capital.
@@eddiemonesti5671 sosua , Samana, Santiago and the Capital you will find many international restaurants
You may say I am crazy but I do hope that sometimes you just show us beautiful places without strongly emphasizing on retirement. Retirement isn’t my vocabulary.
Good point. Living is living. :-)
@@VagabondAwake Yes.
