Money Exchange

The local currency is the Dominican Peso. Its value fluctuates between 30-35 pesos per US dollar and 36-41 pesos per Euro. Although any currency can be changed into pesos, it should be noted that in some situations it may be difficult to exchange pesos back into your original currency. We recommend exchanging only small amounts of money at a time to avoid any inconveniences. Most banks exchange Dollars, Euros, and Traveler's Checks and can process cash advances on credit and debit cards. Don't forget to bring proper identification, such as a driver's license or passport.

Please note that local ATM machines disburse only pesos, contact your bank for related service fees. If you are planning a day tour to Santo Domingo, you will find that everything is much cheaper than you would at the resort. Souvenirs, clothing, artwork, liquor, etc., will be about 1/4 to 1/3 the price at your resort.
