Feb 08, 2026Adults Only side vs Palace side
The Adults Only side had a very nice beach but not enough lounge chairs and the rooms were old and in much need of a remodel along with the air conditioning and plumbing

Feb 07, 2026A Beautiful Stay at Barcelo Bavaro Beach
The landscaping at Barceló Bávaro Beach is absolutely stunning. Every day we walked to Barceló Palace for dinner or just to enjoy the scenery. It’s only a 6–8 minute walk along the beach, and the path between the hotels is gorgeous. Barceló Palace has beautiful architecture, and the restaurants were delicious and lovely both inside and out.

Feb 07, 2026Third return visit and not disappointed!
Enjoyed a week at Barcelo Bavaro Beach and it wasn't long enough! Usually book 10 - 12 days which is perfect for this piece of paradise. Rooms are dated but maintained and clean. Buffet service in the morning always had plenty to choose from, favourite dinner locations were Chez Gourmet with relaxing service and exceptional meals, especially the Lamb, Las Brisas with an excellent buffet at lunch combined with a beautiful ocean view setting and for dinner there, both the food and service were exceptional. A great way to close out your day is a short stroll or train ride to the the large resort and enjoy an incredible Spanish Coffee at the Rum Bar located on the second floor. Lobby area and theatre service seemed to be even better on this visit even when crowded. Overall the staff were very pleasant and helpful throughout our stay.... special mention to Maria, main buffet, great way to start a morning with her cheerful attitude, Valeris, main buffet and Marlennis, pool service, both always smiling and attentive, Miquel on the entertainment team always joking and encouraging us to participate in some of the poolside activities making our holiday memorable. The only real change we noticed this time around was that guests were up early staking out both pool and beach chairs, if you didn't get down before 8:00 am. you may have a problem getting a spot. All in all looking forward to a return visit!

Feb 06, 2026Bad experience so far.
First day. Check in was horrible. Took over an hour and put us in terrible location even after asking to be close to everything due to an injury. Moved us closer. Dinner in the steakhouse was a horrible experience. “Angus” burger? Roll was hard as a rock and baked potato was old and not edible. They had no ketchup. Hoping today will be better……

Restaurante mal servicio
Good morning, I have a bad opinion about the Barceló Beach Hotel. The waiters don't pay attention to guests; they're never available to measure drinks, which is a shame. The forks are always dirty. I asked a waitress to bring me a Coke, and it tasted like pure chlorine. I see how the managers speak rudely to the waiters; they should at least show some respect in front of the customers. The manager, Yudy, has a very strong personality and a terrible vocabulary. She has no manners whatsoever. I won't be back; I had a bad experience, the service was awful.
