Great atmosphere and attentive staff. Katherine Joseph was wonderful at the buffet. Wide food selection and modern dining experience, catered for everyone’s needs. Beaches are beautiful and facilities well maintained and very clean.

Mar 15, 2025Stayed March 2025: did not disappoint
The beach here is absolutely stunning. You can walk out for miles. No seaweed or rocks. Pefect balance for sun worshiping for those that prefer shade. No vendors on the beach which is a plus in my opinion. The resort grounds are very nice. Visible maintenance going on with very little disturbance to quests. We stayed in a privileged room which was very comfortable. Room / bathroom layout could be awkward if you're not a couple. Housekeeping was excellent (1307). Staff is friendly, but yes, the resort does cater to Spanish, Italian and French speaking guests.. that didn't bother us one bit. Buffet was ok. Pizza bar was good as were the restaurants. Juice bar is a nice touch. Didn't try out the crepe snack bar, but it looked yummy. Shout out to Charlie at the Italian restaurant, he made us feel special. **Don't forget to tip for good service**

Great Service!!!
Our stay at the hotel Catalonia was exceptional! The service provided to our group of four was outstanding. From the moment we arrived, Berto was welcoming and attentive, ensuring that our needs were met promptly. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and well-equipped, and the overall experience was seamless. Every request was handled with professionalism and care, making our stay enjoyable and stress-free. Highly recommend for groups looking for excellent service and a memorable experience!

Mar 06, 2025Very Disappointed
We originally booked with Catalonia Golf and Casino. Upon arrival it appeared they were over booked and could not give us what we had requested. The front desk tricked us on saying they could send us to a better resort. The only thing better was the beach and water, that's it. We paid for privilege but didn't get what we should have been entitled too. The desk at Catalonia Bayahibe were no better. Hardly smiled and showed no willingness to help our stay. Also majority of the time the food was cold even in the al acarts. Would we return NO, would we recommend NO.

Feb 21, 2025Great for Spanish speaking & family resort. Not for couples or English speaking travellers
Currently here (Feb 21/25). Pros - This is a very nice hotel with beautiful grounds. The beach is soft sand & it’s easy to walk into water. No water shoes unless your near the pier where there are lots of coral & rocks. - rooms are a nice size & in good state. - Entertainers & shows are great to see especially if your with family. - all our food experiences have been fine. Yes buffet is repetitive but that is what a buffet is about & pickier food eaters. Cons - we as 2 travellers chose the wrong resort. This is all about Spanish travellers & big families traveling together. Good for these families. Not great for romance lol. - we are English speaking travellers & try our best over the years to communicate in Spanish. This is a whole different vibe here. - staff will serve Spanish speaking people before us. Staff walk right by us to serve others. We are dumbfounded on the attitude. We have travelled before so we are not imagining this. We make a joke now as we walk by people & say hi (staff & guests) to everyone. - moving on to the Privilege bracelets. Save your money. No real difference on beach space/bar items/restaurant reservations. There is also no beach service. The real perks are if you are with the timeshare vacation company that they push for you to join. I’ve been to Puna Cana, Puerto Plata and Samana hotels. I now understand when others have mentioned about the lack of friendliness from staff. I’ll give it a couple more days & hope that if I keep annoying people by saying hi that I might cox a smile out of someone on vacation. Lol If your a family thinking of coming please do. This resort bends over backwards for families. Sorry there is no water slide here. Just my thoughts after a couple of days. Happy travels
