Car Travel
The major car-rental companies operate in Puerto Plata, which has the airport of choice for most independent travelers. Phones are for the airport location; Avis has a location just outside the Playa Dorada complex. Prices can be high (up to $600 per week). You'll save by making your car reservation in advance.
