Own sand beach, first coastline.
Umbrellas, sun loungers, towels - free of charge.
The length of the beach is 1 km.

Large beautiful area. Many birds even saw a flamingo, but for some reason he was alone. A lot of beautiful places for photos. Artificial pond, reservoirs. Fish and turtles live in reservoirs. Animals can be fed. There are many sun loungers by the pool. There is a pharmacy and shops. But the prices there are too high. There are casinos, but as I think many people know, you won’t win anything in such casinos. There is a visiting market about once a week. Be sure to bargain for a good price. Beautiful beach, white fine sand, palm trees. Everything is as it should be. The water near the shore is cloudy and full of algae, but walk a little in front and the water becomes clear. The approach is gentle. The water is calm and there are very few small waves. He brings algae, but in small quantities, and the hotel staff actively removes them. There is a bar, plenty of sun loungers andThey stand at a normal distance from each other. There is a reef nearby. It also protects from big waves and at the same time you can swim or walk there and see the fish. The hotel staff is typical for the Dominican Republic. Everything is done a little slowly, but overall they manage everything. Check-in varies, earlier than check-in time and the time probably depends on the availability of ready rooms. The bracelets are put on immediately and you can use the infrastructure. Nobody knows Russian in just a few words. They speak English. So there are no special problems when communicating. Free minibar replenished daily, VIP concept is not worth the money, it’s good that we took a regular room. It's called something like Privileged. There are no complaints about the number. It is clear that the rooms are being looked after and are being renovated and the furniture is being updated. Everything is in good condition. The bathroom has a bathtub and shower. The plumbing is also in good condition. They provide shampoo, gel, conditioner. Everything complements. Normal hairdryer. Large balcony and there is a hammock. An adapter for sockets is needed. Safe is free. Good air conditioning. The cleaning is a little lame, especially since they often forget to refill the minibar. There is a coffee maker and they provide sugar and coffee. Good internet, free and reaches everywhere. The only problem is on the beach. If we take it as a whole, the rooms can be safely called good. We precisely wanted the room to be normal because in the Caribbean it is difficult to guess the number of rooms and usually it is old or the price of the hotel is exorbitant. Our travel agent did his best and took into account all our wishes. There are very few such specialists who know the hotel base so well, so I want to recommend him to everyone. His name is Dmitry Mir, which is easy to find by his last name on the social network VKontakte. He will quickly select a hotel for you and give you advice on the country where you can save money. A very nice person and a competent specialist. You won't be bored at the hotel. Excellent, very positive animators work here. Interesting shows in the evening. They organize foam parties and DJs at discos. On the territory there are tennis courts, a gym, and golf courses. There are billiards and table tennis. Not far from the hotel there is night club but we didn’t go there. There is a playground for children, and they are entertained during the day. In the evening there will be a mini show program for them. Children's disco, magic tricks and the like. The food is good but there is very rarely anything really special. There are no problems with meat. Sea food is scarce. Well, there are some good ala carte restaurants that are worth visiting. There is a coffee shop that makes delicious coffee. As for alcohol, everything was fine. In general, it’s a decent hotel and few Russians vacation here.…

Offered by Catalonia Bavaro Beach, Golf & Casino Resort 5* - a hotel complex of a famous Spanish chain, built in the vicinity of picturesque Punta Cana. This is a great chance to live in the Garden of Eden, waking up to the singing of birds, walking along well-groomed paths and inhaling the aroma of exotic flowers. However, the hotel still has a lot of advantages.

Guests receive all the benefits of an ultra all-inclusive system, which includes unlimited access to the kitchen and entertainment facilities. Russian travelers they won’t feel alone – compatriots have long chosen this place on the map of the overseas country.

Rooms

1 of 8

The hotel area is built up with nice low-rise cottages. During the hot season it is quite crowded - there are more than 700 rooms. The staff willingly listens to the wishes of the guests and provides rooms in the villa that appeals to them most, of course, if there are free rooms. The number of rooms is not uniform: some have been renovated, others are in line for renovation. There are spacious balconies and terraces everywhere, and here and there, in addition to the usual tables and armchairs, there is a cozy hammock. The rooms themselves are also a decent size, with large beds and pull-out sofas. The bathroom equipment is pleasing: a luxurious round Jacuzzi bathtub is complemented by a shower. There are enough detergents, there are shampoos, soap, and shower gel on the dressing table, but their quality leaves much to be desired.

The floor is covered with tiles, but there is not a single rug in the rooms, and slippers are not provided. Experienced travelers advise taking them from home, especially when it comes to children.

At guests' disposal:

air conditioning and ceiling fan;
TV with satellite TV;
mini bar;
safe;

Use of the safe is provided according to an unusual scheme. If there is a need for it, you need to contact the reception, where they will offer to conclude an additional agreement. And only after that they give out the key, but for free. The bar's assortment consists of drinking water and four types of lemonade. There is a coffee maker, and it comes with an aromatic powdered drink and separate water for coffee.

Reviews from tourists about cleaning are mixed. There are no complaints about cleanliness, as well as about beauty - the maids practice their skills in creating figures from towels, decorate the beds with fresh flowers, but the bed linen may never be changed.

Gourmets will truly enjoy their trip to the Dominican Republic in 2020 thanks to the excellent cuisine. Perhaps someone will discover new dishes or try the gifts of nature of this sunny country for the first time. Thus, exotic fruits are presented - passion fruit, papaya and carom. Cooks bake Mexican corn tortillas and serve fried bananas.

Mainly European and Dominican cuisine. For breakfast there is a variety of juices, you can ask to mix any fruit. Delicious meat and sausage cuts, vegetables, pancakes, omelet or scrambled eggs to order. In addition, there is always hot food and desserts.

Yoghurt and milk porridge are an essential element of the morning buffet. Ice cream assortment included.

An even richer selection of dishes awaits you for lunch and dinner. There are two soups on the menu; lamb, pork and goat meat are excellently prepared; chicken and turkey lovers are also pleased. But, unfortunately, there is not a lot of fish and seafood: tuna, mackerel, sea bream, mussels, squid, and sometimes shrimp appear.

Those who don’t like to sit still and prefer to explore new corners of the resort can benefit from the snack bar, which is more like a traditional pizzeria. Open around the clock, ready to serve you a hearty meal with a variety of pizzas at any time of the day or night; the menu also includes more “serious” food, such as grilled ribs.

Alcoholic drinks and non-alcoholic cocktails are available in the lobby and evening bar. In the latter, a pleasant atmosphere is created by the proximity to an artificial pond. They serve sambuca, rum, whiskey, tequila, and there is a place for branded alcohol in the wine list; they also don’t require payment for it - within the “all inclusive” concept.

The hotel has several themed à la carte restaurants. Each can be visited for free once during the entire vacation.

Staff

The staff is a worthy face of Catalunya Bavaro. The employees are always friendly, give sincere smiles, are polite and attentive. For this, guests forgive them for the excessive slowness characteristic of all Dominicans. For example, you can wait a couple of hours for luggage to be delivered to your room.

Most speak Spanish; English here is at a very weak level. But in different places The resort has Russian-speaking staff - a couple work in the restaurant, and there are such people in some shifts at the reception. They will help you solve any problems that arise, answer questions and introduce you to the infrastructure of the territory. "For understanding" Russian tourists ready to give the hotel an extra star.

Entertainment and animation

1 of 11

The territory is huge and of exceptional beauty, stretching all the way to the ocean, which is at least half a kilometer. Ideas for photo and video sessions will come in handy here more than anywhere else. Among the riot of tropical vegetation there are artificial ponds where fish live; there are many species of birds around, from flamingos to hummingbirds; they are accompanied by turtles and iguanas in a separate enclosure. Everyone is allowed to feed and is even given food in a specially designated area. The luxurious pool is designed in the form of a lake with islands.

There is a nine-hole golf course nearby; the first lesson with an instructor is free. For tennis lovers there is a court, which is illuminated at night. In general, there is complete freedom for sports enthusiasts: a fitness room, paddle tennis courts, and a volleyball court. And the SPA center invites you to the sauna and massage.

The animation is done at a high level, tourists do not get bored from early morning, however, it is held in Spanish and French. But games and activities are clear without words. The day begins with water aerobics in the pool, continues with all sorts of competitions, and ends with an evening show on the stage of the amphitheater or on the beach. As support animation program casinos and night disco. Every other day, local vocalists delight the bar’s visitors, performing modern hits and songs with Latin American motifs to the sounds of live music. Plus, right in the complex you can rent a car and explore the surrounding area on your own.

For children, the list of entertainment is not so rich, but still the kids will not be bored. The arsenal has a small swimming pool and a mini-club, where children can practice creativity, drawing, and dancing.

Beach

1 of 8

The spacious beach is the pearl of the hotel. White soft sand and transparent ocean of unimaginable azure shades do not leave even the most inveterate pragmatists indifferent. The swimming area is strictly limited by buoys, so those who like to swim long distances will have to look for other places, for example, on nearby wild beaches.

But a sea of impressions awaits fans of snorkeling; one mask is enough to see the rich undersea world: there are small fish, large stingrays and bright starfish, and all this is almost near the shore. You can also swim in scuba gear, the first lesson is free. Huge selection available aquatic species sports, kayaks, sailboats, catamarans and kayaks are available for rent.

The beach is strewn with many sun loungers, there are always free ones.

But hiding under the shadow of an umbrella is no longer an easy task; it is solved exclusively by “early birds”, who are accustomed to getting up at dawn and going for a swim. Even before breakfast they occupy the most attractive places on the shore. However, the abundance of palm trees successfully copes with the role of umbrellas.

The ocean is almost always calm thanks to coral reef not far from the coast. Quiet calm, pleasant sand at the bottom and shallow water - feel free to come here with small children.

Location and surroundings

Location is another undoubted advantage of the hotel. The journey from Punta Cana airport takes only half an hour. There are excellent conditions for mini-shopping around and in the territory. In the main building there is a store with the most necessary products; once a week traders come and organize a noisy evening bazaar with souvenirs and clothes. You can also buy gifts for your loved ones near Catalonia Bavaro - a “shopping street” begins at the entrance, but the prices here are inflated. There is an ice cream shop nearby. If you want to save money, you have to walk half a kilometer along the ocean to the right, where there are also shops scattered there, you will definitely find original gifts in them. And if you walk along the coast to the left, you can come across an amazing art gallery, the creations of local artists are on sale. Nearest major shopping mall“San Juan” is a 15-minute drive away; a free shuttle to it is provided by the complex administration. There are absolutely no pharmacies nearby, stock up on medications at home.

Hotel reviews 2012 of the year

So another dream (obsession?) of visiting the Dominican Republic has come true. Fortunately, Tezikov had a good fire, and in the end the trip cost 70,000 for two people for a week. The flight, like everyone else’s with Transaero, seemed okay, but it could have been better))) But everyone was, so to speak, in anticipation, so, surprisingly, it took about 12 hours to get there easily, the flight back was a night flight, slept and ate - I drank and watched cartoons (but playing 5 cartoons for 11 hours is certainly a lot!), they don’t offer any entertainment in the form of players...

The hotel is simply wonderful, we are generally lucky with our choice of hotels, or maybe we always arrive on a positive note. In general, we have never heard that the Dominican Republic is paradise on earth. We went, we were convinced, it really is paradise.))) For those who love and appreciate delicious and varied food, guys, you urgently need to go to this hotel. I’ve probably never seen so many dishes, everything is very tasty, meat and fish, soups and desserts. You won’t find such polite and gallant waiters in every restaurant in Russia) By the way, the staff there...

Hello, a week ago we arrived from the Dominican Republic, flying by Teztur. I didn’t really like the hotel, because... We are used to going to higher level hotels. The Dominican Republic itself is amazing beautiful country, I want to come back here again. Let's start in order. FLIGHT: July 25. We were flying Transaero, plane 747-400. The flight departed on time, and we arrived 30 minutes earlier than expected. We fed him 2 times, the food was normal. The plane is good, the knees in the seat in front did not rest, the seats were quite wide. Therefore...

We returned from this hotel two days ago. I want back!!! Everything's OK!!! The only thing I can advise is not to use the services of Biblio-Globus when purchasing excursions. 2 times more expensive. The quality of accompanying guides leaves much to be desired. If any questions arise (free transfer to stores, change of towels, etc.), it is also useless to contact them. There are two or three Russian-speaking girls at the reception desk (in our time there were Irina and Maria), they resolve all issues. FROM the hotel if...

Hotel reviews 2011 of the year

Well, finally our dream came true and we flew to the Dominican Republic with a 6-year-old child. We chose the hotel very carefully and did not go online for several months. We settled on Catalonia. And they made no mistake. I have no words to describe all the advantages of the hotel and the country as a whole!!! Everything is just 5+! This is despite the fact that upon arrival we had a problem at the reception with confirmation of payment. And so on for half the flight. They took a $300 deposit from us, but TezTour guide Ilya decided everything, and already in the morning...

We just returned from the Dominican Republic, a lot of emotions and memories. It would take a very long time to write about everything, so I will write the most important thing that I noted for myself. Fly to the Dominican Republic better by Aeroflot, because the plane is larger, more comfortable and everything works (TVs). It’s better not to overstock at duty free in Moscow, because... The hotel is ultra inclusive and all European drinks are available (martini, whiskey, Baileys, champagne, etc.). Moreover, in Dominican Airport Duty free is cheaper because everything is in dollars. Upon arrival they collect 10...

IN Dominican Republic This is not the first time, so there is something to compare with. We flew with Aeroflot, which was much more comfortable than Transair. The hotel was chosen because of the price for three people: 150 thousand for 12 days. Operator Maldivian, special thanks to representative Alexander. Very friendly and interesting person. About the hotel, the territory is large and green, with living creatures including herons, fish, turtles, and all sorts of birds. The beach is large, there are enough sun loungers for everyone. But the sea is shallow, there are boulders, you can cut your feet. The food is delicious, meat for any...

Having commented on the review of Tatyana, who had rested a little earlier, I decided to reflect my impressions. Or rather, there are more than enough minuses and pluses that I didn’t read in the previous comments. I already wrote about the flight and accommodation in the comments, I’ll add that I still have a bad feeling despite the “compensation” and apologies. The price/quality ratio of the tour is really real. We have already written about the color orientation of bracelets. Let me add - it seemed to me that the green ones were Italians, the red ones were Germans, the orange ones were Dutch, the gray ones were...

Hello everyone! We vacationed there from May 7, 2011 to May 23, 2011. Just 2 days ago we returned from the Dominican Republic, we were on holiday as a family with a child and a teenager. I was very impressed and really liked it there, so we decided to write a review about this hotel. The Transaero flight took 12 hours there, the flight was very smooth, unlike the way back... Local time differs from Moscow by 8 hours, so it will take you a couple of days to get used to it... Check-in was quick, you are given a handbag in which there is a key card. ..

Hi all. My husband and I rested in this hotel from 05/13/2010 to 05/23/2010. I'll start in order. We took off from Domodedovo early in the morning. The flight was on schedule. In principle, everything has already been written about the flight and food. I would like to advise only one thing to those who fly out in the morning - don’t sleep at night. We couldn't sleep the entire flight. There's nothing to see in the window either, most time you fly over the ocean. Well, in general, it’s convenient for anyone. Punta Cana Airport. They greeted us warmly, with songs, and did not let anyone in without a photo from the...

We just returned from vacation, we went on February 5-16, 2011. In order: 1. The Transaero flight is terribly long and difficult, the food is a solid deuce... for the flight they give a media player for 1000 rubles 2. Check-in: one might even say instantaneous), we were settled from the beginning in building No. 17 (building No. 14, 15,16,17,28,29,30,31) very close to the disco, night bar and restaurants - therefore quite noisy until 2-3 am... I returned to the reception and within 2 minutes, absolutely no money or additional payment, we are...

Hotel reviews 2010 of the year

We vacationed together in December, returned home the other day, a lot of impressions, and not even any comments! Thanks to everyone who left wonderful reviews, the hotel is excellent, the food is delicious and varied, I’ll tell you in detail about the breakfasts, the rest is simply without comment: cheeses, a large selection, sausage-!!! edible and tasty, well, everything made from eggs, donuts, pancakes, buns, sausages, yoghurts, muesli, in general, I didn’t get tired of it in 12 days, a lot, varied, delicious. In the morning at breakfast there is a table with champagne and a table...

We returned from the Dominican Republic today, and under the impression I decided to immediately leave my review) I admit, we were afraid to fly because of the endless news about cholera in Haiti, which the Dominican Republic borders, but upon arrival we saw the happy faces of the vacationers and forgot about everything) The guides warn that you need go only on proven excursions (to the island of Saona, Samana, Santo Domingo), do not drink tap water, do not eat raw seafood and wash your hands often. Then everything will be fine! :) In the hotel itself, in front of the entrance...

We vacationed with a 4.5 year old child. I liked everything very much, the only thing was that check-in was not very good, I had to wait 2 hours, and this was after such a long journey!! They gave us a room on the 1st floor, although we asked for a higher one. I had to quarrel and give 10 dollars, the number on the 2nd was found. The hotel area is simply gorgeous, I have never seen such greenery as in the Dominican Republic! The food is also very decent, the staff is polite, the attitude towards our people is good. The country is Spanish-speaking, therefore, tourists are mainly from Spain. It's terrible what...
