Wonderful!
This is our 6th time in this resort and we are missing it already. This was the first time me and my husband went to Barcelo Bavaro without our daughters, so we did different things, since our girls were not there. The adult section is more quiet and we enjoy it for the fists time. The ocean is breathtaking! All shades of blue. My husband and girls loves scuba diving and you it doesn’t get it any better than here. It’s on the site and all my family got certified from this resort. The beach is my favorite part of this resort since I love to walk. It’s safe to walk and so beautiful. Get reservations for the restaurants at night. My favorite is the Spanish and the French was very good. The Japanese steak house is super fun too. If you don’t want to eat at the Buffett for breakfast, go to the 19th hole by the golf course. It’s more quiet and less crowded. We also used the spa and love the hydro therapy massages and the pools. Highly recommend it. Before or after dinner stop by Carey, the bar and get some drinks to start or to finish your night. It’s a really cool place. The best part of the resort is definitely the people. Dominicans are happy people and they love visitors and welcome you with open arms. We have the joy to meet Iva a customer service manager and she was divine!

Good
Overall this is a good place to stay, check out process could have been better. Check out lady would not let us out until we returned the towel cards, despite I repeated that I left the towels in the room.

Rat infested
I made reservations at this all inclusive resort for my family , I took food with me because I only keep kosher , upon arrival took out all my food out of the luggage and put it in the storage closets ,at night while putting my kids to sleep I heard something crunching I turned on the lights and took a look around and didn’t see anything , I kept hearing the noise and heard it coming from the storage closet I opened the storage closet and found that 90% of the food was torn apart and eaten by a rat I immediately called room services and they moved me and my sleeping kids to another room in middle of the night , and even tho they moved us the event took a turn on our vacation my wife and kids were terrified to sleep due to the experience, and now I was stuck in a country with barely any food for my kids for the next 7 days since we are Jewish and only kept kosher I had to feed them fruits and vegetables through out the rest of my stay to get by the next morning while my family was at the pool I heard someone open the door and a whole family was walking in with their luggage’s telling me this was their room they got appointed at that point I was furious and had trouble communicating with the hotel managers and staff but got no where due to the fact they are limited on the English language skills I kept getting thrown around the hotel to different managers and got no where this is unacceptable for the security of my children and for our privacy luckily I was still in the room otherwise my personal belongings would’ve been tampered with all I kept getting from the staff was apologies but when I asked for compensation I got thrown around to different managers which each are in a different location around the resort and are at least a 10 -15 min walk each way I got tired of going around and just said I will contact my card services

GO! This place was wonderful!
Traveled in January with my family of four (kids aged 1 and 4 years old). This trip was our first ever as a family of four and I didn’t know what to expect. THIS PLACE IS FABULOUS. Every bit of it. Water parks, family two bedroom rooms, staff, buffet never closed, lovely a la carte restaurants and the ladies at the kids club were absolutely incredible. We used a babysitter (Eva) 5 nights for 3 hours while we ate dinner and visited the casino and she was so lovely. Thank you to everyone for everything. We have already booked our next trip back in April for Easter. I can’t wait! Don’t hesitate. Just book this hotel. You’ll love it. Promise.

Not a good place to travel to
Nothing was good here. Starting from Service, food,restaurants everything was horrible. One of the worst places I been to. No one cared to help with anything. You help yourself with everything. This is not all inclusive this is more like get ur own. Alcohol was also the worst I ever tried. These people can’t make anything right. The simplest drink will be the most tasteless when they make it. Being rude is whole different level. I hated this place.
