SunCamp in Puerto Plata

[Rickyrubio]

I recently visited the Dominican Republic and stayed at a residence deep in the mountains near Puerto Plata. This has to have been the best experience of my life - a great place to stay with lots of fun activities - and the best thing of all!! It's Dominican!! Not holiday resort or sunbeds and tequilas that are shielded from the reality of Dominican life - you live in a small community - where real Dominicans get on with their everyday lives - and in there usual warm and open way welcome you into their lives and way of life. I made many friends there - from 80 year old ladies to little school boys who wanted to play football with you - and not only this - but it is very cheap compared to the prices Western tourists pay in the resorts. The suncamp residence is a complex of 15 appartments all built from scratch by a Canadian lady who bought a piece of inaccessible jungle some 17 years ago with a dream of converting it into a paradise for anyone who was brave enough to want to get away from the regimented holiday resorts. I met people from Sweden, America, France, Italy and China when I was there - a real international community of adventurers in that little paradise. And if you want to go to the beach - well one of the best in the country is just down the road. If you want to go the other way - you can grab a horse a ride up into the mountains to see many of the fantastic waterfalls that only the locals know about. If you want a real adventure holiday - to get away from the rat race and experience tropical life the way it really is - you can go easily if you go on the suncamp website!! Enjoy!!

Just how many sock puppets does this woman have?

No, she he or it shouldn't since this is a common fake post about a place that gets all sorts of complaints.

The place exists but by most accounts (one's like this excepted) it is barely fit for habitation.

Every few months a newbie seems to come out of the woodwork; praise this place under one of it's ever changing names and then disappear back into the ether. The inevitable comments from the regulars may be ignored or refuted with indignation but the pattern is well established and predictable.

To be honest - it's getting boring.

In the Yahoo groups, there is a setting offered to moderators which does not allow a first time poster to post, until it is approved.
This can eliminate a good portion of these spammers & sock puppets.
Perhaps the same could be done here.
If nothing else, just delete the whole thread

Sometimes it's best to let threads run...

Let these threads run. Being new to the site and trying to plan a honeymoon, I've posted questions on here in the past. I've received more emails directly to my mailbox then replies to my post. It's nice for me to be able to read the true story from all of you regulars rather than get an email from one of those "sock-puppets" lauding their resort. I'm sure it is old hat for many of you, but your responses truly help me make decisions. Thanks!!
