Barceló Bávaro Palace - All Inclusive

The property is beautiful, well maintained and felt very safe. What we liked: never felt too crowded at the pool. There was ample seating (even for our crew of 7) & you didn’t feel like you were right on top of each other. The beach was beautiful and maintained- staff greeted us most days & were able to bring more chairs out for us if needed. The bar tenders work quick & getting a drink was fast. We liked the OPTIONS of restaurants but note you must make a reservation for all except the buffet. This was a time consuming & very frustrating process as most reservations were always taken by people who had been there for days at a time. We did not feel like we got our value at all in terms of food. Upon arrival our room was not ready (which I understand because it was 2pm) but then after waiting they gave us the wrong room type. In waiting for them to move us we almost missed the 1 dinner reservation we were able to get making for a very frustrating first evening and experience. What we didn’t like- It did not feel like an all inconclusive resort at all. Any wine other than house wine (they only offered 1 white and 1 red) was an extra cost, bowling was $12 a person per game, etc. Most of the staff were pleasant but some of the buffet cafeteria waitresses were very unpleasant & unwelcoming. The cafeteria food was decent but not enough cuisines offered. Lots of options but all for the same palate. They’d run out of coffee by 9:30am. This was a very average resort. Bare minimum.

I had an amazing trip overall, it was my first vacation with my partner,But during our stay, we dealt with, Staff hanging up the phone, calling us name whenit seemed like we didnt understand, and multiple blackouts(not their faults, it was raining every night).Plus due to the blackouts it was hard to make reservations.Overall the resort was beautiful, there is a shopping center 10 mins away From property, and it was worth the trip.

My stay at Barceló Bávaro Palace was truly unforgettable. The resort is absolutely beautiful, with pristine beaches, lush grounds, and a wide variety of restaurants and activities. The room was spacious, clean, and comfortable, with a stunning view. What really stood out was the friendliness and professionalism of the staff everyone from the front desk to the restaurant servers went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. The pools and entertainment options were also top-notch, and we never ran out of things to do. The location is ideal right on one of the best beaches in Punta Cana, and it feels both luxurious and relaxing. I highly recommend this resort and would definitely return!

Clean, quiet, nice view, pretty beach Plenty of activities

This resort is the total escape destination for me. This was my 2nd stay in 8 months time, and I'll be back again in the Spring. Secluded, quiet, all amenities surrounding you.. The beach the pools the dining. I've no reason to even consider another property.

The food is amazing, room was always clean. Pool was great. You could tell the staff were overwhelmed as it seemed over-crowded. Dining times were so late, it made dinner not enjoyable. Never towels available at the pools.
