We only live there 5-6 months per year however we maintain our Canadian lifestyle while there, including golf club membership, restaurant meals 3x per week, travelling to various parts of the island, groceries,'entertainment', 4 wheel drive vehicle, A/C, cable, cell phone, internet, daily maid, etc.
Only thing we don't have is medical insurance (next time for sure!:-0).
So not paying rent (we own) we spend CAN$2000 - CAN $2500. per month while there - or approx. what we spend at home in Canada.
In pesos it works out to about RD$26000. - RD$30000. per month.
