Dec 09, 2024This place needs some TLC
This was one of the dirtiest hotels I have ever stayed in. Garbage was all around the pools, water bottles littered the beach. People were putting their hands on the food for the buffet and not using utensils. We went with a group of people and 90% of us all ended up sick by the end of our stay. Other vacationers were experiencing the same issues. Some TLC needs to be put into this resort.

Dec 04, 2024Week in Punta-Cana - Grand Bavaro Princess
Our stay at the Grand Bavaro Princess in Punta Cana - Dominican Replublic. As a 1-10 rating of the Grand Bavaro princess - I would give it a 8.5. Great overall resort with a few minor annoyances but very good resort Accomodation: Rooms were clean and pretty modern, we heard that this resort was totally re-designed in 2020 when covid hit - so things are up to date. Plumbing in room was our only complaint, shower not great and sink blocked eaisily but did really bother us much. Each villa has 3 levels with stairs, nicer views means more stairs but surrounding grounds and wildlife on the resort were nice to see and hear. Food: Many different restaurants to choose from. We didn't go to all - but we found the Indian restaurant to be the best, followed by the Japanese steakhouse (tepanyaki). Daily buffets are good and plentiful as well - you will alwys find something to eat. Breakfast buffets and made to order food at the Platinum restuarants were very good. Amenities: We paid for the platinum service which was well worth it. PROS: Seperate check-in/check-out and conseirge services. Restaurant reservations for platinum only guests was a great perk. Separate pool, bar and restuarant with special area of beach dedicated - all well worth it. CONS: Platinum service should be adults only. We found the pool to not be very relaxing when full of children. We like kids - don't get me wrong - but they have their own water park at this resort - the platinum should be reserved for adults only. For a resort of this size, it should be easy to have the best of both worlds but it seems to all bleed together at this resort. Overall Facility: Resort is immaculate - tons of staff working and constantly bustling. It is big though - very big. 99 buildings with 12 untis per. If you like walking, great - if not using the trolly system is efficient as well. I don't understand how - but you will not see any insects on this resort - did not see a single mosquito or crawly bug for the entire week we were there. Tons of Peacocks and Storks roaming the lot btw.. Staff: Because we had Platinum - maybe it is a bit better but it was painless coming and going to this resort and always very helpful staff to aid you with anything. Princess Club: - look for the "Staff" in Pink Shirts. Unless you want to buy into a Timeshare vacation club - do not agree to the presentation. If you are into that - go for it but the sales tactics are high-pressure and did not leave a good taste in our mouths. We will know for the future not to fall for it - we cut it short and didn't waste to much of our vacation time. In our opinion - this should not be allowed at the resort (message to the Princess corporation) We booked our Travel from Montreal with EscapeNow travel at escapenow@live.ca with Carolyn and would reccommend to others as well.

Amazing
The service in the restaurant was superb thanks to Juan Gavilan and Yandra. The buffet was great, the resort was beautiful and the entertainment was amazing. I really enjoyed everything this resort had to offer. I will definitely be coming back.

Ignore the Critics
Stayed here and admit being nervous due to critical reviews. My bad!!! We had a fabulous time. Everywhere spotless and well kept. Staff amazing - Kennedy/Ingrit in the Main Buffet and Jose in the PBG Bar were outstanding. Try a mango Daquiri. Would we go again? You bet. Tomorrow please
