Yeah? AZB is spot on with the going rate.

Many have prices posted. Plus, it's not like it's a face to face interaction.

What hard proof do you have that you have been overcharged in a Cabana.
If so, what one and how was you over charged?

If I recall, it is about RD400 for a few hours, simple room.
Instead of arguing about it, contact them.

If you want to avoid being overcharged, have a local Cibaeño call the cabana for the going rates, or you can fake a heavy Cibaeño accent, something to the effect:


Haló compai, cuanto ai que pagai en su motei pa pasai un rato con mi mujei?

well, i'm not gringo nor dominican but have been confused as being dominican so that helps to get the real rate in dr. Now i have better idea as to what going rate is.
