Question on driving times

[crenshore]

I am thinking of renting a car and wondered if anyone could tell me how easy it is to drive around the island, and how long it would take to drive from:

1. Santo Domingo airport to Bayahibe.
2. Bayahibe to Santiago.
3. Santiago to Puerto Plata airport.

Also, has anyone been to Bayahibe recently, if so please describe it. The guidebooks I have read are either very flattering about the place, or very damning, so not sure what to think.

Thanks all.

3. hour and 15 mins.
all times give or take, of course...
