Hi Alex,
I took my son hes almost 12 to Sosua last month, I heard what some people (mainly travel reps!) saying it wasnt a good idea to go outside the resort. Being bl***y minded and having heard conflicting reports I didnt listen and spent quite alot of time in Sosua. I feel that if i had stayed in the resort i would have majorly missed out, I made some great friends the dominican people are great and had a fantastic holiday.
That said my son was quite wary when he ventured out with me although I think as much as anything he wanted to stay in the hotel and be with his friends as there was so much fdor him to do. Im in the process of planning my next 2 visits 1 with him and 1 without, when we both go out next year we'll stay in the ai most probably but when i go out there on my own (yeah!!) i'll definatly be staying somewhere else.(sorry it was long winded i go on alot!)
Nic
