I have been to the Barceló Maya Palace Deluxe in Riviera Maya, and after a great experience there, was excited to try this property. I wish I had stayed in Riviera Maya. My husband and I are laid back people, it takes a lot for us to get upset. But we also work in the hotel industry, and as management... More

Just spent 15 nights staying at the palace deluxe hotel. We have stayed at Iberostar all inclusives in Mexico, cruised around the Carribbean and stayed at many other similar styled resorts. This is by far the best. The communal areas are modern and stylish, rooms are well appointed and clean, the pool areas fantastic and the most exquisite beach which... More

This was a beautiful hotel - kept very clean. The rooms were nice and big and we had a gorgeious view of the beach from our room! One complaint would be the hot tub - it leaked so you could not keep it full or it would overflow... weak pressure! Restaurants were very good - especially the ones that you... More

There were a group of 4 of us (2 couples) who spent one week on the facility, in the adults only section. Food was great. Service, phenomenal. We spent one day at the swim-up bar, and as expected it was a bit child-ridden. Adult children, too. Otherwise, the overall clientele being of more European and Russian background, things on the...

I was truly concerned regarding our upcoming 2 week stay at this resort. As soon as we arrived the staff could not do enough to help us accommodate. Our check-in/out was completed within 5 minutes. The concierge staff were especially helpful in assisting us in booking our meals and excursions. The housekeeper, Rosario C, could not do enough for us.... More

The restaurants were excellent, there was... More

My husband and I just returned home from our week stay at this resort. This was our first time ever visiting Dominican Republic, actually first time ever staying at a resort outside the U.S. And our stay was wonderful!!! We purchased the Club Premium package, and it was worth every cent! Upon our arrival, May 4, we were greeted and... More

I stayed at the Barcelo Bavaro Palace Deluxe from May 8 - May 13 with my boyfriend and another couple and we all had a great time! We are a lively group in our late 20's/early 30's. Here’s a breakdown of how our vacation went. Check-in: A+ No line at check-in when we arrived and only took about five minutes.... More

We just returned from a fabulous week in this hotel. The hotel was running at full capacity but we had plenty of room. The beach is beautiful, and the facilities are gorgeous. We were impressed by the staff, they worked very hard and they are friendly and professional. We upgraded to Club Premium and that helped with the restaurant reservations.... More
