"Still thinking about my stay at WHALA! Bavaro! 🌴 The staff made me feel right at home and the amenities were 10/10. Such a beautiful place to relax and recharge. Can’t wait for my next visit!"
The hotel was very clean and the staff were all friendly. Our front desk clerk made sure we had everything we needed and even checked with us frequently to make sure we were ok. The beach is a very short walk away and I felt safe walking to and from there because there was always security staff around keeping an eye on things. The food was delicious. Authentic Dominican food every time. I was very happy with how tasty and fresh it all was. There were a few stores and shops very close by and stocked with all our needs. I will definitely come back to this resort.
Nice beach but you have to walk through another hotel to get there. Staff are very nice!!
Food was not good at all. Bedroom was okay but there was a leak in the bathroom roof.
Great place to stay! Super clean, comfy, and the staff are amazing – so friendly and helpful! Special thanks to Alejandro at the front desk: professional and super helpful ¡Muchísimas gracias, Alejandro, amigo!

Great location for those who want the best of resort and local action. Room itself was clean an made well however faucets and drains seem dirty and attract mosquitos. Also, THERE IS NO SPA ON RESORT. I brought my girlfriend here for her birthday and she loves spas so to not be included with the spa really let us down. Laundry services are also off the resort but the neighborhood isn’t too bad, the locals were helpful. The beach experience was nice and the sky bar was cool too. Aside from that the resort itself is nice and the food was ok, depends on the chef.
Very good hotel, I will be staying again! Very wellness vibe. Rebeca and Jenika were lovely staff that helped me with everything, the check in and check out ladies, Ruth and Nairobi, were awesome!!
The facility is good. The beach towel they charge $10 if you borrow and bring to the beach area. The hotel activity coordinator was amazing hospitality Rosa, Yhon and Jose the bar tender.
Thank you guys for taking care of us during our stay. From Garcia Family Philippines/canada 😂
This hotel has the worst water quality I have ever visited so far. Please DO NOT let this water touch your lipa. Bursh with drinking water. Water smells like gutter. I wish there was an alternative to avoid taking shower. Beds are not comfortable for sleep. Beer tastes like lemonade. Only one option. Some drinks with local Rum are available which I did not taste.
Not everything is negative, the staff is super friendly and they provided water bottles whenever needed. Food is so-so. I would have not written negative review if their water quality is better. I asked a worker and as per him the water is treated by the hotel and is not city supply.
By the way the photo you are viewing is not from this hotel. I will not repeat this one.
Room was clean, staff was nice. Not too many ppl speak English and the hotel was a little outdated. If you like nice, luxurious stay for a good price then you may wanna stay at another hotel. Price was good but it was a 5/10 for me
This place was way better than expected. The room was super nice, and the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful throughout our stay. The pools are also very nice—one is in a bit of an odd location and is on the smaller side, but still enjoyable overall.
The food honestly exceeded my expectations. I had full plates every day during the five days I stayed. Everything was served hot and well kept. I work in food service, so I was a little nervous after reading some other reviews, but I had no issues at all.
The only real downsides were that towels are only changed on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, and our toilet stopped working a couple of times. That said, maintenance came to fix it immediately each time—before I even had a chance to call.
Overall, for the price and what you get, I would definitely book here again.
the rooms themselves are not great, the buffet lunch is not bad, but not the best either. the employees are incredible people with boundless positivity and friendliness, they and the palm trees made my stay unforgettable, by the way there was a lot of algae on the beach that smelled
