Local intel for Driving in Punta Cana

Stuff we wish we'd known before our first Driving in Punta Cana day: (1) Reviews on TripAdvisor for "Driving in Punta Cana" are dominated by the OTAs because they buy ad placement — the actual best operators are smaller and book direct. (2) Best months for Driving in Punta Cana are mid-Jan to mid-Apr (driest, warmest) and mid-Jul to mid-Sep (cheaper, calmer water, fewer groups). Hurricane season risk peaks Sep–Oct but most days still run. (3) For Driving in Punta Cana we keep a "ghost rate" 10–15% under the resort lobby price even at peak season. That's deliberate — it's the difference between paying a Dominican team direct and paying through three layers of middlemen.
