What Higüey and Verón are, and why guests go there
Higüey is the provincial capital of La Altagracia — the working city behind the resort coast, about 45 km west of the airport. It is not a beach destination: people ride there for the Basílica de Nuestra Señora de la Altagracia, for family visits, for hospital and clinic appointments, for the notaries and government offices tourists suddenly need, and for long-stay apartments that cost a fraction of the strip. Verón sits between the airport and Higüey on the same highway and has grown into the residential town where most resort staff live; guests going there are usually visiting family, collecting a rental car, or staying in a local apartment. Both are covered by the one Standard rate, and both are ordinary road drives rather than gated-resort arrivals, so drop-off is at a street address you give us in writing.
