Apr 18, 2025Average Resort
Overall our stay was good. I would like to see more variety in food and entertainment. Beach is very nice but could use some umbrellas not very much shade at all.Staff overall very friendly. Also we found the resort very dark at night for walking.

Relaxing week
A beautiful resort! I went with my sister for 7 days and we enjoyed ourselves. The room was always clean, spacious and the beds were very comfortable. The food was pretty good, there was always something to eat. We went to both a la cartes available at the adult side and the japanese a la carte on the palace side. Our favorite was chez gourmet. The best part of the trip was the beach. It was beautiful, the water was warm and the sea life was incredible. We got lucky and saw sea turtles, stingrays and tropical fish right off the shore. My sister and I are both in our 20s and so the only down side we found was that the resort was sometimes too quiet. It was incredibly relaxing but we felt that the entertainment team and entertainment in general could have been better and more interactive. The entertainment on the palace side was great though if your wanting to see a show. All staff in general were very nice and Alejandro specifically was great to us. He assisted us right from the start from bringing our bags to our room to helping us transfer rooms when requested and assisting with rides in the golf cart around the resort. Overall the resort is walkable but as someone with a disability there were days where it was challenging and Alejandros assistance was much appreciated. Overall I don't know that we would go back just because it felt like it was geared toward an older crowd but we did enjoy our week there!

Apr 18, 2025Great service received by Jesus Ettiene
The resort is beautiful but what made my stayed excellent was the service I received from Jesus Ettienne guest service representative. He is incredibly courteous and his customer service went above and beyond my expectations. Also the extremely good service from my housekeeper I forgot her name but she knows who she was from April 14-18 she took care of room 1057. She exceeded my expectations! Please give them both my sincerely appreciation. Thank you

Barcelo Bavaro Beach is a great hotel (April 2025)
We have recently been at Barcelo Bavaro Beach, April 2025. And we will be definitely back. We enjoyed our stay at the Adults Only Barcelo Bavaro Beach. Barcelo Bavaro Palace is for everyone, and it is more family oriented (multiple activities for kids and families). Beach: excellent, no waves, calm crystal clear waters. It was our 10th time in Punta Cana and we have never been on the best beach yet in DR. Beach chairs: no problems finding a perfect spot. Their beach is 2 km long! Food: delicious food with abondent choices. They have a great variety of seafood: tuna, mahi-mahi, grouper, red snapper, dorado, salomon, hake, calamari, shrimp, squid, mussels….meats, fresh vegetables, cheeses, mouthwatering deserts, ice-cream, frozen yogurt. List goes on and on. Numerous restaurants with impressive wine and spirits lists (extra $). Drinks: strong drinks, some cocktails are too sweet, but to each their own. Coffee: delicious cappuccino at the lobby bar. Service: exceptional service everywhere. Everyone is very kind and nice, attending to you with a genuine smile, nobody appears looking for anything in return. Entertainment: disco, casino at Bavaro Barcelo Palace; evening concerts, arts and craft’s workshops (soap making, fridge magnet making). At the beach towel area they have a good selection of books in English, French, German. Activities: golf, tennis, numerous aquatic activities available. If you like a quiet and peaceful vacation - you can find it here too. Nature: beautiful vegetation, well mentioned and taken care of. Multiple beautiful bird species. No mosquitoes, no insects. Sea is FULL of various fish, bring your snorkelling equipment - you can do it everywhere along the beach. The only thing they could improve is reception. There was special area for the current guests questions/concerns and we had to line up in the same line as newly arrived visitors that were checking in. If check in takes about 15 mins per couple and you have 3-4 couples in front of you in the line, do the math! If they could dedicate a special line for the guests who are already at the hotel it would be great. Verdict: we will be back!
