I really can't say enough good things about this place. Everybody is wearing a smile, showing they truly like what they're doing. And this is not just the culture. I payed twice as much for 5 nights at another resort around the corner (Grand Paradise) which was far, far worse. Barcelo' Dominican Beach is not perfect, but the nightlife was... more

Loved it!

We stayed at the Barcelo Dominican Beach from the 4th-18th June 2009 in one of the standard rooms booked with Thomas Cook. Check-in was nice and easy but we had to find our own way to the room, which proved a bit of a hassle. We spent the majority of our holiday by the pool or on the beach -... more

We had a great, relaxing time at this resort. The airport shuttle was fun and check-in was quick. Keep in mind this was the off-season and resort wasn't full. We upgraded our room to a Junior Elite, not really knowing how the room would be - we were pleasantly surprised. If you decide to book this resort - SPEND THE... more

I honestly don't know what planet some of these reviewers are from, but you would have to be the Queen of England to give this place a bad review. Honestly people, you are giving bad reviews for one of the nicest resorts I've ever stayed in. I am an caribbean island hopper and have been to most islands and I... more

I read reviews before I left and it turned me off to this place, but it was so dirt cheap I thought what the hell. The outcome was that it was totally fine.. Beaches are unreal in a good way. We stayed in a beautiful room right on the ocean because we didn't like our room. They were accomodating with... more

Let me start by saying that I am writing this review on behalf of my boyfriend. Staff could barely speak english and they were not friendly to even assist. Considering this is a hotel, I would imgaine that atleast half of the staff should speak a little bit of english, but that is my opinion. Food - this was an... more

We've just arrived back from Barcelo Dominican Beach. This was our honeymoon and the list of things you should be wary of are below: Mouldy bedspread,curtains,broken air conditioning system, bare live wires. When we got our belongings out of the safe on the last day, camera cases were covered in white fluffy mould, as were our passports. When we first... more

When you get to the resort, the lobby is deceiving, it is gorgeous. Once you get to your room it is just average. I stayed in "Bloque 7" and there were security guards because once you walked down the hall way to the beach and you look to your left there is a village there with dominicans that harass you.... more

Our first time in the Dominican Republic. Wasn't really interested before but an opportunity presented itself and we booked to Punta Cana. From the reviews we read, we booked the Junior Suite Elite Club. It's roomier and has more perks than a regular hotel room. We got a bottle of rum the first night and fresh fruit everyday as well... more

Why - Even when we were there two other women were complaining and whining about the hotel calling it "a rundown dump". I thought the staff was friendly, helpful and fun. The animation team never ceased entertaining and the food, was well, resort food. Not horrible, not great. The beach was beautiful and the rooms were fine. We had a... more
