Cheap Taxi Lifestyles Resorts to Blackbeards?
Hi all,
I have a significant other (real significant) but I have a hall pass to spend some time in the Dominican Republic. I'm going to be staying at Lifestyles Resort, in Puerto Plata, but keeping a room at Blackbeards. Obviously I'd love to just get a room at Blackbeards, but all kinds of things could go wrong with that if she asks me for the name and number of the hotel.
For those of you who have stayed at Lifestyles, how can I avoid the outrageous fares for the taxis at the resort? Can I walk outside the resort and flag down a local taxi? Better yet, anybody have contact information for a local driver who could shuttle me back and forth?
Thanks!
Thank for the Uber heads up!
[QUOTE=CharlesPooter;2136157]As you probably realize, Lifestyles is only a couple of miles from Blackbeards. If you can find a local taxi it should cost you about 5 dollars one way. Much easier to find a motoconcho (motor-cycle taxi) which will cost you under 2 dollars (one way).
Uber also functions in that area if you have the technology.[/QUOTE]Hey Charles,
I didn't realize Uber was active in that part of the country. I appreciate the useful info!
