Found 2 cockroaches on my bathroom floor. Every restaurant smelled of raw sewage. I asked twice for wash cloths. I was promised to get them from the first day there but never got. When the room was cleaned, empty tissue box not replaced & of course no wash cloths. Another customer suggested adult only side. No stench & food was fresh & delicious. Real orange juice instead of Tang on adult side. Booze Cruise was for 18-25 year olds. Wish I would have known. Otherwise, beautiful area.

This is the worst resort in any country I have ever stayed at. I don’t even know where to begin. The roaches in our room or running around the common areas of the resort, the rat that bored a hole through the wall and was digging through the trash can in the bathroom and then was running across the furniture at 3am or the water leaking from the ceiling in our room and we were on the first floor of the buildi

We really enjoyed our stay at this resort! I thought I had booked a different room than I did because all the same pictures are on all the rooms. So, I would suggest they change the pictures to give a more accurate depiction of what you are getting. The rooms were nice but standard for a beach hotel. The beds were comfortable. The hot tubs on the balcony are a great touch. The food was good. Just be sure to make your reservations for the specialty restaurants right away. The beach is beautiful! There was a large college crowd when we stayed which we could have done without. They took over the whole place. Large selection of pools and plenty to do. The spa was lovely. All in all, it was a great value for our money. I think I may book here again.

First of all, the premises of the Resort is huge. If you’re looking to stay somewhere where you but don’t want to leave, Barcelo Bavaro has lots of things to do. We visited as a family of five during the Christmas season and it was very busy. There’s 11 restaurants but it’s very important that you make reservations for the popular ones. There’s room service up until a particular time, which is not included and buffet options through the day. If I was to rate the buffet, I would give it three stars out of five. Some days the options were questionable and service at each restaurant are not all the same.

The housekeeper who cleaned our bedroom was very friendly and kept our bedroom clean with fresh towels and sheets. I haven’t seen anyone cleaning the seaweeds from the coast. And majority restaurants had a smell of sewage. Staff at the breakfast seemed to bump to each other’s and do not do much. I was kind of disappointed.

Food was not very good, even at the restaurants (we survived off $16 doritos bags from the hotel store for the entirety of the trip). the rooms were nice and we loved the tub on the balcony. it was hard for our excursion rides to get into the front gate to pick us up on some days. entertainment and night club were very mediocre. pools were nice and well maintained. some staff friendly and some were a tad mean, some also couldn’t understand us due to language barrier. overall an okay trip but probably one we wouldn’t take again. if you walk to the left on the beach there are other hotel beachfronts that have activities, like soccer, that you can take part in. definitely wouldn’t recommend to anyone looking for a trip that’s more on the fun/party side.

Room was ok, but there seems to have a pest problem. The 2nd night we found two big cockroaches in our room; one walking out of under the bed (which we killed) and then (2 hours later) another one walking on the wall next to our bed. We switched rooms and on the 4th night we saw a small cockroach walking in the bathroom. Also, on a couple of occasions we saw small cockroaches in the bathroom of 2 of the hotel restaurants. Food was not the best and staff not friendly.

Our family vacation was a complete bust, huge disappointment. From the time we checked in, the room was poorly cleaned where you could tell it was quickly wiped down in a hurry. The door throw latch was busted, the safe was no reset so it was unusable. The family duplex rooms offer no privacy as there are no doors on either bathroom. We had multiple bugs found in the unit, including giant cockroaches walking across the vanity. We tried to make reservations for dinner and only one was available but at 10:30 at night, which is much too late for a family with kids. The standard food buffet was gross, we found chicken bones in the shredded chicken and in general all the food was cold or luke warm at best. The water park that states is part of the all-inclusive package is not accurate, you get one free pass and you pay additional from there on out. The only beer that you could get without paying additional was the local beer of El Presidente, and served warm at best. If you wanted a decent beer like a Corona, it was $6.00; which is extremely high priced. The "all-inclusive" experience as advertised is not at all what it is, plan to bring a couple hundred extra dollars just for decent drinks and water park tickets. All this doesn't even start with the pool experience, or lack of space unless you want to arrive prior to 8:00 AM with minimal space and chairs. Overall, we left 2 days early to give you an idea of our overall experience. Staff were rude from the moment we arrived.
