    Fun and relaxing

    Just returned - family of 5 with 3 college age kids. Gorgeous resort. Amazing weather. Friendly staff and the grounds are beautifully maintained. Room was clean, shower was lovely, and the AC was kicking. Buffet always had something delicious and the restaurants were great. Lots of pool and beach chairs. The ocean water was calm and refreshing. The seaweed is part of nature and they cleaned it twice a day. We took out kayaks twice snd saw turtles, rays, and starfish. The shows were enjoyable after a long day in the sun. We played cards in the back of the venue, loved spending our family time together, and had amazing service from Elizabeth Rodriguez!

    The best trip ever!

    The stay here at Barcelo Bavaro Beach Resorts (adult only) has been fantastic!! My husband and I came here for our 20th Anniversary for a week. We stayed in the best room: Presidental Suite (884ft square space not including 2 balconies that overlook the ocean). It also has a private jacuzzi. We have been spoiled the whole time. The staff will accommodate you whatever you want. if the can't, they will try something else to make it work. The Dominicans are very friendly people. The food is wonderful no matter what you eat. It's fresh with no preservatives (very different from the USA). The two best restaurants so far are Dolce Vita and Hoyo 19. It's all-inclusive food and drinks 🍸 except wine. The wine is soooo smooth best I ever had! The best cocktail waitress who went out of her way to accommodate us with a big smile and big heart is Elizabeth Rodriguez!! Ask for her, you won't be sorry!! Negative downfall: make sure you have the my barcelo app going before you come. It has maps and activities that are going on. Very important so you don't get lost finding your restaurant! The property is about 2 miles long. No one could figure it out to get it going! We will be back!! 5 stars for sure!

    I spent most of my time reading by either the pool or the beach but was very peaceful and I could relax the whole time.

    Everything was great especially the service from the waitresses. Elizabeth was amazing and very attentive to my family the whole time we were here. Also the restaurants had great food and great service as well. Would come again in a few years.
