What???
I've never been to the pacific yet & don't have the desire to go there, as I grew up on the west coast. That being said, I've been to the Mayan several times stayed on 8 ave in playa, That's 3 blocks north of the strip in a house. One night we heard the federally s beating up some crook outside. I stayed all over playa for a month & drank my face off walked every where without issue.
I've stayed in the middle of havana in casa particulars & walked allover downtown drinking every night. Same in Dominican, same in jamaica, even went to beach reggae party way far from the resort, lots of "stuff" goes on every where, & the best jerk chicken ever, "Street meat is king" but like other said if your smart you should be alright. We're going to the Dominican again in march or april for 2-3 weeks & just staying @ a buddy's in sosua.
