Juliana I have been there....all inclusive of course....I went to the north of the island...more to do there than the south.....go for a trip up the mountain also do a 'rum run' lol Fantastic holiday!!!! Gerri x enjoy

Oh thank you girls! Can (hopefully) book it tomorrow! Cross your fingers for me and ill fill you in! Ju xx

And I'll carry them :-))) A friend of my Mum's came from Dominica, I would love to go, lovely place. good luck with it. give us a shout if you need any help carrying the bags anytime :-) Pat x

And if I'm coming...a word of warning...you'll need a bloomin' BIG trunk for me to stow away in. LOL Hope you get booked and have a great time. Christine

thanks girlies! yep, back your bags, everyone welcome!!!!! xxxxx

Hey Julianna quiet word, I don't take much room very little I am double jointed as well, I will fit into the smallest area, so take me and Christine can carry the bags lol DEAL!!! Pat x

Oh ok Pat I'm sure if your that small Juliana could have you in her hand luggage. LOL Christine

Another word of warning!! Daughter and husband have been (fantastic holiday - all inclusive) but watch the local rum! - although I am very pleased with the result - my 4 year old grandaughter! Just a thought - not wishing to spoil the party or anything - didn't they suffer badly following a hurricane a litte while ago? - or am I remembering that wrong? Might be worth checking if it will affect your stay if that's the case. Have a great holiday wherever you decide to go Magsxxx

Went 2 yrs ago LOVED IT We were all inclusive , most places are.The people are great they may not have much but we didn't get any begging for things., We went on 2 trips the Outback safari , brilliant, saw how the DR folk live, the money from this trip helps support the schools and helps to get more educated, there were 3 classes a day starting at 8 am and ending at 9 pm so all ages could go some leave home at 5 am to get to school for 8. The other was the catamaran trip , if you go on this one go the last few days of the hol as it can really top up the tan !!! It is cheap to buy things out there. And the Rum is very drinkable Love Jan

Hi Julianna, l think l'd better go with you as l'm a bit of an expert on rum, l could be the official rum taster!! l'm an early riser as well l could save you a sun lounger by the pool lol Anne x

hey everyone, thanks for all your responses, can't wait now! They've opened a park where you can swim with dolphins, feed sharks etc AND they do whale watching!!!! It looks lovely and REALLY need to get away!! Only thing im slightly concerned about is the fact that Im probably gonna put on a good couple of stone out there with all the 'free' food and drink! juliana xxxx

Julianna, It sounds lovely, l'd love to swim with the dolphins and go whale watching you'll have a great time, don't worry about weight gain, it'll all be worth it lol Anne x
