Dominican Republic Cheap Vacations

Food could be better. Everything else was great. If you do not speak Spanish have a translation app close by.

Perfect Family Getaway! Barceló Bávaro exceeded every expectation! The kids absolutely loved the sprawling pools and water slides, while the adults enjoyed the pristine beach and endless entertainment. The only challenge was the language barriee but we were able to still communicate and I used that opportunity to learn some Spanish. The all-inclusive dining was impressive — plenty of options for even the pickiest little eaters. Staff were incredibly warm and attentive, making every family member feel special. The rooms were spacious and spotless. From the kids' club to the nightly shows, there was never a dull moment. We'll definitely be back — this resort truly knows how to create magical family memories!

The layout of the property and the landscaping was very nice. Unfortunately, everything else, not so much. The bed was hard, there was no top sheet, only the bottom sheet and the duvet. No shower gel was provided, it was only after our butler kept after housekeeping for 3 days did we get any. The staff was not friendly, the exception being two of the bartenders at the swim up bar, and our butler for villa 70, Kevin Paulino. The staff in the lobby gift shop were very rude. Very few of the staff spoke or understood English. The food was barely adequate, with Limbo being the best of the 3 restaurants. And most important to note, they do not allow toilet paper to be flushed. Instead, used toilet paper is to be placed in the trash can beside the toilets. The lobby area is a bit small to accommodate guests who wish to take part of any activities that may be offered. Also note the vehicles on the property are extremely loud- for example the trash trucks that came through outside of villa 70 at 1:40 am. The staff walking about either early morning or late evenings are also very loud, with little regard for the guests. Room service could not get our standing order correct, nor were they able to deliver at the time our butler had requested, so we had to cancel that. Also be prepared that despite signage warning against it, guests will go out at early hours to reserve pool and beach chairs, and not show up til hours later, if at all.

Todo estuvo estupendo, solo puedo mencionar que el agua de la playa es turbia y no cristalina pero el resort en si es de lo mejor!!

La house keeper fue muy amable y siempre ma tubo mi habitacion super limpia pero los demas empleado no son amables
