"Overall, our stay at Barceló Bávaro Beach was disappointing given the price we paid. While some staff members were friendly and helpful, the rude interactions we experienced unfortunately overshadowed the positives and impacted our overall impression of the resort. Dining was inconsistent. At the Kyoto restaurant, we encountered a long wait and an unfriendly hostess. The restaurant also did not enforce its own dress code, allowing guests in swim shorts, flip flops, and inappropriate t-shirts, which took away from the experience. It felt like standards were inconsistent and possibly influenced by tipping. Additionally, smoking was permitted throughout the property, including inside restaurants, which was very unpleasant—cigarette and cigar smoke were frequently noticeable. The beach itself was beautiful, and we appreciated that staff worked continuously to clear the sargassum seaweed. However, the pools were always crowded, and it was frustrating to see chairs reserved early in the morning but left unused for hours, with no intervention from staff. In the end, for the cost of this resort, we expected a higher level of service and consistency. Unfortunately, we would not return, as there are other resorts and destinations that offer better value and a stronger focus on guest experience. "

"The pool was pretty cool "

"I had an excellent stay. The buffet was one of the best I’ve seen, a ton of variety in classic Dominican food was a plus. Beach and pool were very clean. The resort is very well kept, modern, great option in stores if you need to grab anything you forgot to take. Staff was amazing— especially entertainment, David, made us feel at home during our stay. The resort is huge, so there is a lot of walking— take comfortable shoes for those walks to/from the rooms. Overall, I will give my stay 5 stars, I have no complaints and I had such a great time I will be returning to this hotel. I recommend it 100%. "

"The many pools are excellent, with the swim-up wet bar being the premier place to be as long as you are early enough to claim a lounge chair. The staff are all extremely friendly and will remember guests to offer friendly banter and know what you are planning on ordering. The ac in the rooms was top notch, where I had to turn it off for a bit because I was getting too cold. If you have the option to upgrade to a swim out poolside room I would suggest it."

"Satisfied "

"Perfect stay. It was a last minute find and we loved it. "

"Address was wrong and no answer from management. Lost money. Never found the place and no information was available. "

"My friend and I stayed for three days, and unfortunately it was a very bad experience. We received the room two hours late because it hadn’t been cleaned yet. We never had direct communication with the host and were never given an access code to enter the room. If it hadn’t been for the building’s doorman, we would have been left outside. On top of that, the internet was very poor and barely worked. The shower had almost no water pressure, and to make matters worse, the power went out one night and we had to find someone to help us reconnect it. Overall, it was a very disappointing stay. "
