The Dominican Republic has shattered its tourism record, welcoming 11.2 million visitors in the trailing 12-month period. This milestone has significant implications for real estate investors, as tourism directly drives short-term rental demand.
Short-term rental platforms report: - Average occupancy: 78% (Punta Cana) - Average daily rate: $185 USD - Revenue per available night: $144 USD - Peak season (Dec-Apr): 92% occupancy
The government's investment in airport infrastructure, including the expansion of PUJ and the new Bávaro City project, is expected to sustain this growth trajectory through 2030.
