Yaya Campers has introduced the Dominican Republic’s first RV park, strategically located on Las Ballenas Beach in Las Terrenas, Samaná. 

The new development caters to travelers seeking alternative lodging experiences, blending adventure with sustainability. The park features fully equipped campers, camping areas with essential amenities, and restored iconic vehicles, offering a novel approach to outdoor accommodations.

Joan Castillo, CEO of Yaya Campers, described the park as more than just a lodging option, emphasizing its role as a community-driven space where visitors can immerse themselves in nature and connect with like-minded travelers. 

“It’s a community space where visitors can connect with nature and fellow adventurers,” Castillo said in a report by Dominican Today. The company has also incorporated responsible tourism practices to ensure minimal environmental impact while providing guests with direct beach access.

For professionals in the outdoor hospitality industry, Yaya Campers’ RV park represents an example of how alternative accommodations can attract a diverse market, including digital nomads, eco-conscious travelers, and adventure seekers. 

The concept aligns with broader industry trends favoring experiential travel and sustainability-driven business models. 

By repurposing vehicles into functional living spaces and maintaining an emphasis on environmental responsibility, Yaya Campers is tapping into a growing niche within the global travel sector.

This initiative also highlights the opportunities within emerging RV and glamping markets in the Caribbean, where traditional hotel infrastructure dominates. The introduction of an RV park in a region with a limited history of camper-based tourism could pave the way for further investment in alternative lodging options. 

As interest in flexible, nature-immersed travel experiences continues to rise, outdoor hospitality operators may find value in exploring similar developments that cater to evolving consumer preferences.

“The best way to explore this beautiful country is aboard a camper van,” Yaya Campers states, reinforcing its commitment to offering mobile, flexible lodging solutions.

The company’s emphasis on affordability, accessibility, and guest convenience suggests a scalable model that could be replicated in other destinations with high tourism potential.
