On a downhill slope

Reviewed 25 january, 2022

We arrived for a 10 day vacation....and it was down hill from there. A/C did not work...closet doors were broken...coffee pot broken...no beach towels..dead batteries in the TV remotes. Room was obviously not checked before our arrival Food was not like its been in the past. Best was at Kyoto. Everything was hot, delicious, and fun presentation. Getting covid tests sorted out before return to US was not especially clear by any means. Got results fast, but still would have helped to have info in the rooms regarding procedures on our arrival. This was our 5th trip....and will most likely be our last. HUGE contingency of Russians, and eastern Europeans. EVERYONE is smoking, which made the common lounge area very uncomfortable for those who do not partake! Wish they had smoking/non-smoking sections. Food at Las Brisa for lunch was dismal. Minimal offerings...food warm at best...and flies all over the place. If you sit outside....smoking is allowed, and you will not be able to escape it! It was wonderful a few years back.....but not so much any more. Housekeeping was spotty. At first we couldn't get facecloths , turn down, or waters replenished.. After 5 days ...it got better. Room service for breakfast was wonderful! Bring plenty of small bills for tipping. The employees earn a small wage, so tipping goes a long way.

Great trip

Bavaro Beach adults only was very nice. Had a 4 night stay. Room was nice. - had to ask for more towels, but everything was clean. We were near the pool and a quick walk to the beach. The food was okay - plenty to choose from at the buffet and Maria was our fantastic waitress (if you call them that at the buffet) each day - she was awesome! Remembered and welcomed us for breakfast and lunch. The restaurants we ate dinner at were good - reservations needed for most. The pool was immaculate and not crowded. The beach was lovely. We could walk along the beach about 1/2 mile to the family side to take part in other activities or a train/trolley came by frequently that you could hop on. The Covid testing you need to take to return to the US happens at the family side - you need to bring 2 copies of your passport and make an appointment. Make sure you have all the paperwork you need to leave the Dominican before you get to the airport because if their Wi-Fi isn’t working, you’ll need to show the actual papers. The resort can print for you in their business center if necessary. Check in and check out was a little discombobulated and could be a little more streamlined, but everyone was very nice and helpful. The all inclusive was the way to go. Bring some small bills for tips and you’ll be all set!

I really wanted to like this Resort. My friend has stayed here a few times and gave rave reviews about it. Let me tell you my experience. The resort itself is a beautiful resort. We were on a girls trip, 5 adults 2 rooms. in our room of 3, the bed was not 2 queen size, it was more like a Jr bed, but my friends were sharing their bed so they made do with that. We were given 2 towels in our room and 1 roll of toilet paper. That did not work for 3 women in one room. We booked an ocean front room, but our room was far from ocean front. When I went to complain, they said it was ocean front but there is a huge court with grass between our room and the ocean. This is not what the pictures showed as room front. They said they would try to move us, but we were never contacted about it. We made do again. The food was really good, but we had to travel on a trolley that only came by every 15 minutes or so. So a lot of our time was waiting around for a trolley. There was absolutely no live entertainment, just a big screen with music or a movie. The adult pool was really nice, but no swim up bar. There was a swim up bar at the Palace side of the resort, but it wasn't open, and there were kids all over the place splashing around. We paid for the upgrade and felt like it wasn't worth it. I gave 3 stars, but maybe I should have given 2. The amenities were lacking.

Excellent place to vacation

My husband and I just returned from 10 blissful days at Barcelo Bavaro Beach. We were extremely pleased with our stay. Our room was clean and modern. In addition to the morning room cleaning, there was a nightly towel/ minibar/ turndown service. The beach is absolutely beautiful. The shade comes from the many palm trees growing on the beach. There were always enough lounge chairs while we were there. After a day at the beach, there were always clean towels available to trade in for our used ones. The restaurants, including the buffet, were excellent. There was lots of choice and the food was delicious. The staff were all helpful and very friendly. The whole resort, including the grounds, is clean and well-manicured. We loved our stay at this resort and definitely plan to return.
