Not sure about American owned. Would European or Canadian Owned do? How about Sosua? "Affordable" would depend on your means, but hotels in the summer in Cabarete are priced very reasonably.

Yes, Canadian or European would be fine also as long as the hotels have A/C, which I am told is not common in the D.R.
Any recomendations?

I suspect the OP is more concerned with their lack of Spanish skills than the actual nationality of the owners. Fact is most hotels in Cabarete will have hosts who speak English, whether it is their native tongue or not. The majority of hotels in tourist areas like Cabarete have AC.

Which are the affordable ones with AC? Carribe surf is fine for the "winter" months, but it has no AC, what price range should one expect to pay for 2 people, w/ AC?

No, senor. Yo puedo hablar espanol perfectamente bien, como si fuera dominicano. Lo que busco es un hotel costeable en la playa Cabarete con aire acondicionado.

Perdoneme sepiahunt. I guess I jumped to an incorrect conclusion. Usually when someone is looking for an AMERICAN OWNED hotel, it means they want an English speaking host. I'm not sure how the nationality of the ownership would affect whether the hotel has AC or not.

Most, if not all, hotels in Cabarete have AC. Some of the guest houses do not. If you're looking for very cheap, I think SansSouci is still doing the $15/pp/per night rate, although I have no idea if it's air conditioned or not.

Or you could just google "Cabarete Accommodations" and do a bit of legwork

How safe are valuables, mainly a Laptop Computer, in most hotel rooms? Do they have safes to keep such things in? I want to be able to relax when I go out and not have to carry my things with me everywhere, all the time.
