"It was a great resort, very clean and beautiful "

"Overall property was amazing and vibe was pretty good, but only issue is housekeepers don’t understand english so it was bit hard to explain them and they need more buggiese."

"I stayed at Lopesan Costa Bávaro Resort from April 11–16, and overall, the experience was mixed. The resort itself is very large and beautifully decorated, but it could really benefit from clearer maps and better signage—getting around wasn’t always easy. Unfortunately, the service left a lot to be desired. Many staff members, especially at check-in and the front desk, were not very friendly or helpful, and it felt like additional training is needed in those areas. There were also some issues with the room. I encountered two roaches—one in the room and one in the closet. While I understand that insects can be common in the Caribbean, I didn’t expect to find them inside the room. When I reported it, the response was disappointing, as I was simply told housekeeping could come again, with no real resolution offered. That said, a few standout employees completely turned things around for me. Domingo and Claribel at the adults-only pool bar were exceptional—friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. Felix at the late-night restaurant, The Valley, was also fantastic. Without these three individuals, my experience would have been significantly worse. In short, while the resort looks great, service and guest support need improvement and the rules around the adults only pool need to be revisted. Out of the days I was there there was only entertainment at the pool one day. The staff members mentioned above were the highlight of the stay and made a big difference."

"Overall, it was nice. The beach was beautiful, the grounds were lovely, but the food was average and the drinks were overly sugary. Take this with a grain of salt—it was my first all-inclusive. I expected more to actually be included. Some extras felt unreasonable: $5 USD for a coconut, and $50 USD/day for beachfront daybeds that mostly sit empty while everyone else stares at the back of them. Poor design—either include them or integrate them better. We were supposed to have a concierge via WhatsApp, which never happened. We also had “Level” wristbands through Expedia—fine if included, but not worth paying extra. It mostly gave access to one additional restaurant and a spa circuit (hot tub, sauna, steam room). The “upgraded” room wasn’t better, and there was no enhanced concierge. The voucher system was confusing and poorly explained. At checkout, staff refused to honor a voucher despite clear terms—only resolved after escalating to a manager. Not a great final impression. Dinner reservations were messy (2/5 nights had conflicting info), and with no concierge support, we had to sort it out ourselves. Service overall was slow and inconsistent. Skip the Asian restaurant—everything tastes the same. Would I go back? Maybe. Would I look for something better? Definitely. "

"My stay at Barceló Bávaro Beach – Adults Only All-Inclusive Resort was an exceptional experience from start to finish. What stood out immediately was the genuine warmth of the staff—their smiles, friendliness, and professionalism truly made me feel welcome throughout my entire stay. The beach is absolutely unforgettable: pristine, well-maintained, and with a strong sense of security that allows you to fully relax and enjoy the surroundings. It’s the kind of place that stays with you long after you leave. One of the highlights was the incredible variety of food options. The buffet restaurants, including Caribe, La Brisa, and Santa Fe, offered an impressive selection with something for every taste, and the quality was consistently excellent. I also appreciated how convenient everything was. With lounge bars, pool bars, theater bars, sports bars, lobby bars, and coffee spots all located throughout the resort, there was always a great place nearby to relax, grab a drink, or socialize. Overall, this resort delivers a well-rounded, enjoyable experience that I would highly recommend. It’s truly a must-visit destination for anyone looking for a relaxing and memorable adults-only getaway."

"It was such a nice experience, we will be coming back again one day!"

"Perfect"

"The condo was clean and the space is nice and open with two full bedrooms and a small third single bed bedroom. The photos are a bit misleading as the condo itself does not have views of the ocean/beach. The pools were nice and quiet. The condo is sparsely equipped (we had to go out and re-supply toilet paper). The host offered to arrange transportation and twice the transport didn’t show up which was disappointing. "

"We stayed 4 weeks in this beautiful villa and loved it! Clean, very well arranged and perfect amount of space.Our hosts, Judy and Robert were wonderful! Robert responded immediately each time we had a question. Thank you both for the beautiful fruit basket!"
