This hotel has a wonderful location, good people, and great accomodations. Their one weakness is their poor room service. As a 5 Star Hotel there room service rated "no" star. Unfortunately, it was so bad it was as if they did not want you to order it. A property is only as good as its weakest link. I rely on... More

We vacationed May 4- May 11, 2013. We previously vacationed at the Grand Bavaro in Mexico (2012) and in Jamaica (2010) so we were curious if the Punta Cana Grand Bavaro was equivalent. We found that this resort was as nice as the other two Grand Bavaro's. We were able to email reservations for the restaurants for the first four... More

We had 22 people in our party and we had a great time at the resort. The staff are by far the best we have encountered in any retreat. They were amazing. The food is good; however, getting reservations is extremely complicated and very hard to acquire. We tried setting up reservations for every night we were there in advance... More

Can't really add to the positives expressed in the many glowing reviews, but I failed to rate this a "5" because it's just not my kind of resort. This is my second "President's Club" as a reward for work in the last 3 years (slacked off in 2011, what can I say), and my second all inclusive stay in an... More

This hotel was not nearly as nice as the Barceló Resort that we stayed at last time. It could use updating, especially in the Grand Hotel, the most expensive one!

The grounds are very pretty. They work hard to manicure everything, and they do a good job. Overall, this place is not as good as they think it is. Dinner is a pain. They make you get reservations, and the restaurants are seldom, if ever, full. Wait times for food were often unacceptable. Mini bar service is kind of a... More
