Comments from jfraioli on Catalonia Bavaro :

Positive :

Wow! What a great trip! The site of a splendid beauty, vegetation, room, food etc. ...... everything was perfect. We made several trips, and this one was one of the most beautiful. We have not been disappointed, he deserves the 41/2 stars or more. We highly recommend this hotel. We would return without hesitation.

Negative :

The only downside is the algae in the sea, despite still being cleaned every day. But that has not prevented us from enjoying the beach and the sea

Comments from Martin on Catalonia Bavaro :

Positive :

We were very rétissants to go into a republic and we came back pleasantly surprised. Very clean, great room 1013. Hammock and rocking chair on balcony. A la carte restaurants, excellent food. Reservations can be made upon arrival for the 4 a la carte restaurants and there is no problem. Buffet very varied and very good. Steak and lobster at the buffet and it was very good. Employees give excellent service. The site is very beautiful and very clean. We would stay there again.

Negative :

Yes there are algae but they are picked up every morning but Quebec waters are much worse. Verily we have not negative.

Average score (4.3/5):

Comments from Denisa Ghizaru on Catalonia Bavaro :

Positive :

Beautiful location, great room, clean, large balcony, very good coffee, good selection of food. General impression very positive.

Negative :

Range a bit small. Too much algae in the water. Cocktails too sugar, calorie free option. Option not to change the towels every day not respected by both. For a double room there is just a hammock. The wine is not very good. The beverage service at the tables is anomalous.

Average score (4.2/5):

Comments from Karine Rivoallan on Catalonia Bavaro :

Positive :

In general it was fine. The beach with its palm trees, food from a la carte restaurants was excellent, the room was large and clean.

Negative :

A reservation for a restaurant made in advance was canceled at the last minute and had to argue with the daughter of customer service to find a solution that bare not to lose our right to the fourth restaurant card. We also paid for the extension of the room until 18:00 because our flight was at night, but at 16:00 we were urged to leave the room to make room for the new arrival.

Average score (4.6/5):

Comments from valiou on Catalonia Bavaro :

Positive :

Wow! I stayed in the Royal section, and it was beautiful. The calm and absolute rest. It's worth paying a little more for this section, the service is great, service chairs at the beach! The private pool is quiet, very clean and the chairs are really comfortable. The private restaurant Thalassa is the best I've experienced in my travels. Everything is a la carte. The breakfasts are delicious, smoked salmon, gourmet cheese, and mimosa are offered every morning. If you want to move, go to the regular Catalonia, to rest and get treated to pampering, go to the Royal Catalonia. But the ideal is to choose the Royal because you will have access to two sites, then you can vary depending on your mood! Key points: the food is really good, (t miss the Steak House or the Japanese) the service is excellent and the site and the rooms are super clean. I have not even seen an ant in the room.

Negative :

The beach is beautiful, beautiful depth and chairs always sufficient. It is the sea the problem, there are clumps of algae at the bottom, sometimes near the edge, then you can not swim across. I expected but I was still disappointed. But that's okay, we enjoyed the pool all week anyway. He announced the service in the chair at the pool and I saw only once ca ... then had to get up to go and look for a drink .. life is hard anyway!

Average score (3.9/5):

Comments from Michèle Et Bernard on Catalonia Bavaro :

Positive :

The site is nice but not worth the 5 stars they give themselves. I coast this hotel no more than 4.5. Already 10 years that the hotel is built and well maintained but the furniture that filled it is imcomplet. lack of chairs, no ashtrays in the lobby. no match in the bar, go to reception to ask. people who serve us drink his overworked, so we often forget ..... the beach is beautiful but we have to go very far to see 400 feet to a depth at shoulders, no wave, some algae that are collected by employees of the site. the food is good at the buffet and a la carte restaurants are great. we will not be back. we much prefer the 5 BAHIA PRINCIPE ****** who is 5 1/2

Average score (4.3/5):

Comments from Claudine Gauvin on Catalonia Bavaro :

Positive :

Very nice site, extensive and well maintained. The rooms are spacious, with a full bath, safety deposit box, stocked fridge every day. We were in block No. 24, in the middle of the resort. Varied buffet, especially at lunch, a la carte restaurant very good, courteous service. The bar near the lobby is very well located, in the evening, everyone goes there makes for an aperitif. On Monday evening there is a beach party on the beach, BBQ, dance, entertainment, under the palm trees it's really nice. The animation on the site is very effective, old as the participants engage in activities, groups and families having fun.

Negative :

Nothing concerning the site or the staff is negative. I wish to take advantage of palapas on the beach, tourists (always the same) reserved the early morning by extending old towels or by leaving personal belongings. We managed to find shade under the palm trees.

Average score (4/5):

Comments from upsman on Catalonia Bavaro :

Positive :

The hotel in general is a beauty and an almost irreproachable cleanliness. This is the first time I see so many staff involved in maintenance and we see the right result. Very nice large room with balcony and hammock. We spent the week at the beach but the pool is very nice. The buffet is a bit repetitive, but there are many choices and I never ate the same thing throughout my week vancance, and more great food. For a la carte restaurants, we eat well but I have already seen better in cuba. It was no activity but there are several available. The tour is a day SAONA I recommend. The only negative is that we need to just over 1:30 bus to get to the point of departure and return, but the activity is really worth.

Negative :

The biggest downside for us was the bar service and on the floor that night, even leaving a good tip, it was hard to see the server (honest) unlike cuba lolllll. And there is the sea that had a lot of seaweed but the beach was regularly serviced by staff. For the evaluation of the beach, I put a 6 but it is mainly for the sea as the beach was beautiful, a good size and very well maintained. These two small negative point do not prevents us to recommend this hotel at all because we loved our vacation.
