I would probably lean towards Cabrera or Cabarete. They are very different so it depends upon what you are looking to do. Cabarete is a high energy, beach bar and restaurant scene where you can have a great deal of fun. But sometimes the pulse-pounding beat of merengue gets under your skin and you need to move on.
Cabrera is a relatively quiet, rural community about 1 hour from Cabarete. It has the requisite bars (this is the Dominican Republic after all) and some restaurants but is generally more of a residential spot versus the other touristy spots.
I like them both but I live in one and party in the other. ;-)
