Top neighbourhoods in Puerto Plata

Centro Histórico

Puerto Plata's Centro Histórico takes you back in time with cobblestone streets winding past the imposing San Felipe Fort and golden-hued Amber Museum. Explore the St. Philip the Apostle Cathedral, or wander Independence Park where church bells echo off pastel facades. The nearby Malecón waterfront promenade offers Atlantic Ocean views perfect for sunset strolls. Traditional Dominican eateries serve mouthwatering mofongo and fresh seafood throughout the walkable historic core. Boutique hotels housed in restored colonial buildings provide historic charm with modern comforts. Getting around is simple—the area is best explored on foot, with local buses and taxis readily available when your feet need a break.

El Pueblito

El Pueblito brings Puerto Plata's Mediterranean fantasy to life with its charming whitewashed buildings and terracotta roofs. Wander cobblestone pathways while artisans craft pottery, jewellery, and textiles before your eyes. The central plaza pulses with merengue music and cultural performances that capture Dominican spirit in this recreated village setting. Authentic Dominican restaurants serve fresh seafood and tropical cocktails in open-air settings throughout the day. Most visitors explore El Pueblito as a day trip, arriving by taxi from Puerto Plata, then spending hours browsing boutiques for amber jewellery and handmade souvenirs.

Costambar

Costambar serves up beachy paradise vibes without the mega-resort crowds. This gated community boasts golden sands where you can wiggle your toes in the surf at Playa Grande and Playa Costambar. Swing your clubs at Los Mangos Golf Course or just lounge under swaying palms while the Caribbean waves provide your soundtrack. Dining options range from fresh seafood joints to international fare, all within walking distance on manicured paths. Most visitors stay in colourful holiday villas or boutique hotels rather than huge resorts. You'll need wheels to explore Puerto Plata's attractions just 15 minutes away.

Los domingues

Los Domingues offers an authentic slice of Puerto Plata life away from tourist hotspots. This quiet residential area lets you experience genuine Dominican culture through area comedores serving hearty local dishes and friendly colmados where locals gather. The area provides easy access to Isabel De Torres National Park for nature lovers seeking tropical adventures. Getting around is simple with affordable motoconchos (motorcycle taxis) zipping you to Puerto Plata's beaches just 15 minutes away. Basic guesthouses provide no-frills accommodation at wallet-friendly prices. Though lacking tourist infrastructure, Los Domingues rewards travellers seeking real Dominican community life and cultural immersion.

Playa Dorada

Golden sands and swaying palms welcome you to Playa Dorada, Puerto Plata's premier gated resort community. Spend your days golfing on the championship 18-hole course designed by Robert Trent Jones or lounging on the pristine beach with turquoise waters. The Plaza Dorada shopping complex offers duty-free boutiques and casual eateries when you need a break from the sun. All-inclusive resorts dominate the landscape, ranging from mid-range to luxury options with multiple pools and beachfront access. Resort shuttles and golf carts make getting around easy within the complex, though rental cars are best for exploring beyond Puerto Plata's tropical paradise.
