Great place to vacation!

My wife and I had a great 5 day vacation at the Catalonia Royal Bavaro. The resort had alot of options for food, entertainment and fun. Be careful of the people trying to sale you things on the beach ⛱️ We had a great time figuring out our favorite restaurants and bars to go to everyday (after 5 days we were regulars ) we arrived on a Monday and I was really chill during the week and when the weekend came, we noticed longer lines where there usually weren't lines at all. The vibe definitely changed as we could see it getting more and more crowded, good thing we were leaving on Saturday lol. Give this resort a try and be prepared for mosquitoes they are vicious

Great trip.

Had a great time at the Catalonia Royal. From the time we walked in till we left, we had a smile on our faces. The food was above average to excellent. The drinks menu was great with only one that was not so much. the staff was friendly and helpful. It was very nice that on checkout day that we still had use of the property till we left. Looking forward to returning next year.

Clair and Steve

Once transferred to the Royal from the Catalonia, we had an excellent time. The hotel is exactly what we wanted from a holiday, relaxing, relatively quiet, excellent food and drink, very friendly staff, helpful reception, very clean, nice rooms, easy booking system for restaurants, not overly busy, lovely pool areas. The only complaint is the condition of the sea, something which maybe beyond the control of the hotel. It was disappointing not to be able to swim due to it’s condition.

Catalonia Royal Bavaro

Great resort and experience. Would like to had more Latin music and dancing offered at both adult only and family resorts. Music was a variety and good, however we came to experience the Dominican Republic, not American music. Music stoped at 9:40, and at least DJ or dance music could have gone longer.

Wonderful hotel

Staff were amazing everyone said good morning and greeted us with a smile. Food was lovely, we did a la carte for 9 of our 10 day stay. A couple of suggestions would be, bug killers in rooms and inside entertainment during rainy days. Also photographs were expensive at $20 for one print we did not purchase many!

No info

There was no maps, menus etc given at checkin. We were lost for 2 days with no help. I sat on the aluminum lantern and it was very weak. Fell hit my head. They were very attentive, but need do not sit on signs.

An Amazing vacation in Punta Cana

Worth It

I stayed at the hotel for a week for my birthday during the month of October. Even though the hotel is not 5 star it really was a great hotel. The staff is so helpful and magnificent. I was there by myself but I never felt alone (if you get what I mean). The different restaurant options even though you have to make reservations was definitely something different and each restaurant carried their own flame.

From the time we arrived until the time we left everyone was so welcoming and made sure we had everything we needed to have a blast. My family and I will definitely be back.

This was the best location for our baby moon!

My wife and I were blown away by Catalonia Royal Bivario. The staff were exceptional especially Victor taking our luggage and driving us to our villa as we arrived and picking us up when we departed. The sights were gorgeous and we will definitely be back and be sharing with others to come her and experience Paradise at the best level.

Satisfied

ve the place 6 th visit for my husband and I. Our friends Mackey's 7th time. Service great, however I did see my first ever huge roach on the door handle of the ladies bathroom in reception! Couldn't leave till it moved ugh. I reported to the front desk and hope they took care of it. Also noticed the filter on the ac unit was very dirty in the room 4405 though the room itself was thankfully very clean. We reported the toilet tank wasn't filling. They came to fix it, but it wasn't actually fixed, so we filled the toilet tank with the shower head thankfully it reached the tank. Place is getting tired, but I still love it. The pool was dirty the first 4 or 5 days when it was cleaned it was noticeable you could actually see the steps and drops in the round area. I miss the bubbles that used to work but no longer. Hash rounds one morning were still frozen, often times food on the Buffett at thalassa was cold or Luke warm, thankfully you can always get something else that is hot. It's just a shame because I love the place and as long as it stays clean and safe I will continue to return, but I heard others say being there first time they'd not return. I miss the turn down service in the evening and the little extras slippers and robes, but also understand they were probably cut to keep prices down. I am curious as to what the future will hold renovations are expensive and I hope I'm not priced out of returning for the 7 or 8 th and onwards time. The staff are beautiful and kind. Carlos at pool bar is amazing every time we return. Everytime we return we bring friends with. This time there was 11 of us including my husband. They all loved the place as much as we did even though not experiencing it at its best in the earlier days as we have, so overall despite the little annoyances and changes it's still a great place to vacation. We did get to see the big spider hanging out the front too! The door man was great clearing a way for us as the spider (giant terantila) was at the front entrance. I love Catalonia bavara and only reported and now mentioning these things because I care and hope to be returning for many more years. Thank you all for all you do

Our new family!

This place was exactly what we needed and didn't even know it. Any issue we incurred, they worked quickly and professionally to resolve it. Happy to have met family we didn't know we had in another country when we met the staff here.

Holiday

We had a lovely time at this resort. The staff were fab, nothing requested was ever an issue. The hotel and grounds were spotless - the staff work tirelessly to keep it that way and despite there having been a hurricane a few days before we arrived, apart from some minor damage you would not have known - repairs were taking place whilst we were there but in no way impacted on our stay. Due to the storm there was an issue with mosquitoes but the resort was being sprayed on a regular basis which did help the situation. Our room although a little dated suited our needs, after all we only slept and changed in it - it was kept spotless daily by the maid and even a knock at the door in the evening to check we had all we needed ie towels etc. We managed to eat a few times at the restaurants of our choice without any booking issues and the food in all restaurants was good, definitely nothing to complain about. The drinks were plentiful and pretty much anything you requested you got. All in all we had a fab time. The shops onsite were in our opinion a little bit expensive but not a lot we could do about it.

Excellent holiday

We had the most amazing holiday at the Catalonia Royal Bavaro Punta Cana, the hotel and grounds were simply gorgeous; we arrived just after Fiona had hit the island and the grounds staff were constantly working so hard to remove all the remaining debris and clean up the grounds and get things back to relative normality. It was unfortunate that the pool bar and beach bar were closed during our stay as the hurricane had removed the roofs from both but it did not impact too much as there were plenty of other bars and restaurants to choose from. The food was great and we had several lovely meals in the various restaurants and there was always a lovely choice of foods in the buffet at breakfast. The location was amazing right on a gorgeous stretch of white sandy beach. The staff looked after us amazingly when we ventured down to the beach bringing drinks to our sun beds. The rooms were spacious and comfortable with lovely views always nice and clean and refreshed regularly. It was most definitely the staff which made our stay the most memorable; especially in the Piano bar where they did THE best cocktails and provided fab service and also in the pool bar/BO bar who were so friendly and efficient and it was so nice to sit at the bar in the afternoons/evenings. On the whole a great place to visit and hope we will get chance to revisit again.

Vito vacation

Staff was extremely friendly. Room was clean but definitely had some issues. Bed was extremely uncomfortable, condensation from air vent which was placed directly over the bed would drip. Pool had some cosmetic wear and tear.

Hoilday review Catalonia

Catalonia was clean staff couldn't do enough for, my only moan would be the Piano bar never actually play the piano, the music was so loud you could not hear yourself speak and felt it was gear more for the weekend visitors the music around the swim up pool near reception was exceptional loud and half the time it was empty it was more like 18-30 not a relaxing holiday

SANDRA TEBBUTT06-10-22

Great overall experience. The staff is very accommodating
