Catalonia ,La Romana

The staff at this hotel were very good ,however housekeeping could do with a shakeup .re replacing towels n bath mats taken for laundry but not replaced ,Coffee ,suger n fridge contents not always replaced.This was easy remedied as you just chased a housekeeping cart down n got replacements . The biggest sin ever was in lots of bars red wine was kept in a fridge ??? It was disappointing to find the beach was some distance from the hotel also all the restaurants were at the beach area leaving just two next to the adults only hotel . Too much of this hotel is geared for the Exclusive Travellers club too .Special areas reserved for ,top range drinks for special lounges within the hotel for . We gave stayed at the Bavaro Catalonia Adults only 4 times over the years n by far this is better .We would not be going back to La Romana .The lay out ,the grounds ( superb) n the pools .Yes it's getting shabby n worn n the Romana being newer is better in this respect . The people as ever remain brilliant and r lovely .

Survey

We loved our stay at your hotel and will go back if we can. We have recommended this place to any friends or family who ask. The value for our money was great and your staff are lovely people, you are very lucky to have such employees. Your security guards made us feel welcome as well as safe. However, I could not help but notice that they had no bench, chair or stool at their post and they stand up for their hold shift. I think they deserve a little more comfort, like a small bench or chair.

Catalonia

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Catalonia Royal La Romana. Found the resort very clean and staff extremely helpful. The beach was beautiful with lots of space and shade cover and the ocean was lovely with no seaweed at all. Our biggest disappointment and which would prevent us returning to the resort was the tennis court. We are very keen tennis players and had hoped to play a lot of tennis however the only tennis court was in disgraceful shape. The court was peeling so badly that it was actually concerning as it would have been easy to fall and hurt yourself In all other areas we loved the resort and hope something can be done about the court so we can return

Lovely Break

Lovely hotel - we ended up with a small pool with our room which was lovely. Bonus was it was a room facing away from the central area so we had sun most of the afternoon. Water at the beach was a little rough when we were there so the water was cloudy and not good for snorkling. There is a steep bank before getting into the water and another after entering that made it very difficult with people with mobility issues. Food was good - very lean on veggies for the meals. I had salad every day at lunch to make up for it. People were lovely but some days my coffee was refilled after 3 sips and other days I couldn't get a 2nd coffee for love nor money. Sames goes for beverages at other meals, some days very attentive and other days not.

Luxury Resort

Truly enjoyed our stay at the Catalonia. Service was exceptional as well as the amenities. Would strongly recommend staying here if you find yourself in Romana!

Bien en général

Beau site, belle chambre et bonne nourriture. Service inégal dans les restaurant. Parfois très bon, parfois très mauvais.

AUDREY LAROUCHE18-02-20

Des hauts et des bas. Pas un 5 etoiles.

Hauts : plage, chambres, terrain bien aménagé. Bas : la nourriture vraiment décevante, digne d'un 3 etoiles et je suis généreuse. Burger pas assez cuit (on le retourne, ils ont séparé la boulette en deux et elles sont maintenant calcinées!), poulet pas assez cuit, langouste à peine saisie et entièrement crue!!! Les fruits de mer ont soyvent un arrière goût désagréable. Même les spaggettis au Sorrento le soir ont un goût de carton et une texture désagréable. Nourriture fade, souvent trop salée. Pieuvre ayant une epaisse couche de peau / gras difficile a retirer et très désagréable en bouche. Menu qui ne reflète pas ce qu'on trouve dans notre assiette. Le personnel est incapable de nous décrire les plats. Au Rodéo, on mange avec une enorme lampe en bois dans le milieu du front qui attire les moustiques, ceux-ci tombent sur la table! Au Sorrento, tellement peu d'eclairage qu'ils sont obligés d'accrocher une petite lampe sur le menu! Divertissements, trop peu et pas trop interessant. Seul le spectacle de cirque a valu le déplacement. Personnel qui nous jnterpelle plusieurs fois par jour pour noys vendre le "exclusive club". En gros, beaucoup trop cher par rapport à ce qu'ils ont à offrir. Nous n'y retournerons pas.

Good Vacation

The resort is clean & well maintained . The beach is great & really enjoyed the clean Caribbean Sea. Nice sandy bottom when entering the swimming area. The al a carte restaurants were a hit & miss . Isla by the swim up bar was great for a lunch ( always a hit ). Swichi for supper ( very good ). All the other restaurants would serve a decent meal one night & then would serve a terrible meal 3 or 4 days later. ( Ordering the same meal that was decent from our first visit ).

Fantastic Vacation!

My husband and I would like to thank all the staff at the Catalonia Royal LaRomana for making our vacation so great, it was absolutely perfect. Special thanks to Yonathan and Yarina for the beach service; Ronnie and Jonathan at the Twist Bar; Marcus at the pool bar. My husband was drinking Jim Beam & coke, and I tried every drink on the bar menu, they were all great! Also thanks to the buffet hostess Lucinda, and to Angel, Miquel, and Steven for the excellent service and smiles at breakfast and dinner. And of course to Hayro, bellboy, for his enthusiasm and for always being there to assist in whatever. The Catalonia Royal LaRomana delivered a 5-star experience. The resort is so beautiful and well-maintained. We had a very spacious modern room that had a plunge pool on the terrace, pleasantly surprised at that!! It was so relaxing to just sit, read a book and listen to the birds in the morning or early evening. It is definitely an adults-only resort, it was very peaceful, relaxing, and all the guests were very respectful in keeping it that way. Plenty of towels, hot water, bathroom amenities, maid service was excellent. We tried all the restaurants and the food was simply delicious! Filet mignon, seafood, asian, italian, to chicken fajitas and baby back ribs...cooked to perfection with beautiful presentation...5-stars! We spent a lot of time at the beach. We never had an issue finding a chair at any time of the day. We enjoyed cooling off in the ocean and walking down the beach in either direction was fantastic. Enjoyed walking through the beach shops and buying souvenirs, we found the Dominican locals to be so friendly. We felt very safe everywhere we went. With the help of the Tour Desk on the Gran Dominicus side, we booked a tour to LaHacienda Adventure Park where we went ziplining, horseback riding, mud buggy, and jungle safari, which was absolutely the best and would highly recommend that excursion. We will definitely be returning to the Catalonia Royal LaRomana, it was all fantastic, we came home wishing we had stayed longer. Would highly recommend to family, friends, and to anyone who is looking for an amazing tropical vacation.

Beautiful resort!

We had previously stayed twice at the Catalonia resort next door but since we were celebrating our 25th wedding anniversary we chose to go to the new upscale adults only resort next door. The resort was beautiful, staff very friendly and helpful. However my husband contracted food poisoning from the calamari served to him at the Terrace restaurant at lunch on Tuesday (half way through our week long stay there). He was violently ill for 2 and a half days and then we came home. Very disappointing indeed! We filled in the report at reception but was not offered anything more. No apology either. That experience tainted our thoughts on this resort.

Catalonia Tops our List.

We just spent 2 weeks at this fabulous resort. We go for 2 weeks yearly and both of us said this was one place we would definitely go back to. The people...the beach...the food...the care and attention....All top notch. We have never felt so comfortable away from home...Thank you all at Catalonia Royal, La Romana...:-)

Superbe séjour

Tout est parfait à cette hôtel, le seul point négatif est qu'à la plage, nous entendons la musique très forte du complexe Dreams qui est à côté pendant toute la journée
