Cuba's nice from what I'm told, and the locals are even more friendly than the Dominican apparently.
However, if you adventure outside the resort.... be super-careful about who you talk to and what you say. Even as a guest there, criticism of Castro and communism will get you in a world of hurt.
Locals = sympathetic
Spies for gov't = not so much
It's clean, the cars are sweet, and the food's good.
But yeah, as Naz said... flying there might ultimately hurt you if your passport is stamped. Mine wasn't in the DR, but that might be a completely different situation.
