Holiday Cruise lover Posted August 14, 2019 #1 Share Posted August 14, 2019 I’ve read that you need Dominican Pesos is that correct? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trophy_23 Posted August 17, 2019 #2 Share Posted August 17, 2019 We used USD in and around the pool area. We didn’t venture beyond that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holiday Cruise lover Posted August 17, 2019 Author #3 Share Posted August 17, 2019 Thank you. This will be our first Caribbean cruise so just not totally sure of what currency we will need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nemo2005 Posted January 25, 2020 #4 Share Posted January 25, 2020 Taking an excursion at Amber Cove and wondering about souvenirs and how to purchase. Are US dollars accepted or will we need to exchange for Dominican Peso? Hoping to buy some coffee beans on our excursion. If we do need to exchange, is there an exchange in the port or ??

jmo1 Posted February 4, 2020 #5 Share Posted February 4, 2020 We have been on many cruises and international fly and stay vacations, and we have found that US dollars are universally accepted for payment. You might get change in their local currency, but that makes for extra souvenirs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love2CruiseTampa Posted February 11, 2020 #7 Share Posted February 11, 2020 Yes, in the Caribbean, US Dollars are often/ usually accepted, especially in heavily tourist areas. In Amber Cove/ Puerto Plata, every vendor and shop we went to WANTED Dollars. If paying with credit card, they run it up in Peso with an explanation on the exchange rate, which we found fair.
