I’ve been to many all inclusives in many different places including DR & I have to say the staff here was underwhelming. Not very friendly, or attentive, aside from Milton! The rooms were cleaned very late in the day when we wanted to be getting ready for dinner. The pools and the beach were great. We had an issue with our outdoor hot tub which was fixed within a few hours. Not many activities. This resort is good for families. The sports bar is a great touch that is open 24/7, smaller food options but we are lunch there daily instead of the buffet. For the price I would recommend.

Room we were originally booked in was a mile away from beach or main pools and restaurants. We were moved with an additional charge to a small room but easier access to beach. Communication was difficult. It was hard to find employees that spoke English. The buffets were basically the same thing every breakfast, lunch and dinner. The beach on resort property was cleaned every morning at 7am, watched sunrise daily, but just pass the property signs the beach was inundated with garbage, empty plastic bottles and household items.

The hotel is gorgeous. The rooms are really nice; the only thing is, there is not much bathroom privacy, so beware! There is so much to do at this resort. Be sure to visit each restaurant; they are all beautiful. Make sure not to miss the shows. My main complaint is the food and some of the staff. The food was mediocre, lacking flavor; the meats were overcooked and fatty. The coffee and soda machines would break down; the smoothie stand would always run out of fruit, and some staff seemed bothered when asked to make a smoothie. Unfortunately, I got food poisoning on my last day there and suffered for three days. I would recommend this resort if you are okay with bland food and accept the risk of getting sick.

We recently stayed at the Barcelo Bavaro Palace in Punta Cana and had a wonderful experience. The resort is beautiful, well-maintained, and incredibly clean. Our family room was spacious and comfortable, perfect for our needs. One of the highlights was the wide selection of restaurants. The food was excellent, with plenty of options to suit all tastes, making dining a true pleasure. The staff was another standout feature – they were friendly, welcoming, and went out of their way to ensure we had a great stay. The only downside was the high prices in the resort’s stores, so keep that in mind if you plan to shop onsite. However, this did not take away from the overall experience. We would definitely recommend Barcelo Bavaro Palace to families looking for a relaxing and enjoyable getaway!

It was my first time at this property and stayed premium. The TV in the room was not working properly and couldn’t connect to my laptop. The safety deposit box was not working at all. The bed was nice but the room seemed old and worn out. The service was okay but all the staff members seem not happy. They didn’t even smile when are eyes met. The food wasn’t that good except the French restaurant which charge $50 extra if you are not premium. Lamb Chop was good. Red Snapper was pretty good too. And the food from Room Service was decent. Spa was good with hot tub and saunas. The didn’t serve top shelf liquor so it’s probably a good idea to bring your own if you are looking for top shelf liquor. The golf course pretty good and the guys there were nice and helpful. And the price for a round of golf was very reasonable. Overall, it was a mediocre resort and probably wouldn’t come back here unless for a round of golf.

Female staff need adequate uniforms

I hate to complain about these places because they are all good and competency is fierce, so I will just do about one thing: I do not like the uniforms of the female staff. White, short, tight dresses look overly sexualized and uncomfortable. I’ve seen more than one host talking to them while holding or hovering her hips and More than one staff adjusting and pulling their dresses down. On the other hand, male staff look very elegant and comfortable with their full white shirts, long and airy pants. Also: what’s the need of having name tags with their full names? There is a lot of people who can stalk and misuse this info just because they did not came to their tables fast enough. Done with complaining. Now let’s just compare: of the three different resorts I’ve been in the area, I’ve had better service (without being fastidious) and had access to cleaner beaches. To be fair, the place is huge and I’ve visited this resort on the peak of the high season, so there’s probably something to do with that. They manage really well a full occupancy, without making me feel like a bee in a hive.

This was the worst all inclusive I have ever stayed at. We took our family to this resort in hopes of a nice family vacation with another family. It was nothing but terrible. Our check in process was smooth and we were taken directly to our room and everything after that went down hill. Our room was dated and run down to begin with. But we could get past that, however later that evening my five year old son and husband were in the bathroom and shut the door behind them and it locked without them touching the lock and then were locked in the bathroom. Thank God my husband went in with my son otherwise he would have been locked in the bathroom by himself. We tried to get it unlocked and it would not unlock. We had to call the front desk and they did not come for over 30 minutes to get them out. Next, the food was just absolutely awful. We are very adventurous in our food and nothing tasted good. Even our most basic option of an omelet was horrible. I have a gluten allergy and could not find anything that was labeled as gluten free so I was very limited in my options of what I could eat for 7 days. That leads into the next problem is that no one spoke any English or even attempted to try to communicate. We used the limited spanish we had to try and communicate but there was no effort to try and communicate with us. I could not communicate with anyone about my allergy to even try to help me find something to eat. We even had someone with us who spoke fluent Spanish and they still
