We loved the suites and the infrastructure of the hotel which is really beatifull. The restaurants are good, but the reservation wasnt working on the app, so we needed to go to an office to make the reservations. We had a room near to the main pool that was a little noisy for us (it doesnt go late into the night which is good), but lowering the volume a little would make the whole experience better. Overall, a very good experience, the birds are beautifull, the beach is amazing. On the other hand, the staff is not always polite or helpful (they almost look annoyed). When we had an issue with our room door not opening, the golf cart driver left us without waiting as requested, leaving us stuck with our 1 year old baby far from the lobby. At some bars, staff hide to avoid taking orders, and you have to insist to be served.

Dirty pools/ Poor maintenance/ No A/C or clean water/ No bottled water for kids/ Rude service/ Stolen items/ Unsafe for children// I want to share my experience so others don’t make the same mistake. If you're traveling with kids or simply want a worry-free stay, do NOT book this hotel. At first, everything looked nice—great lobby, food seemed fine. But by 7 PM on the day we arrived, problems began. We paid extra for a beachside suite. The beach wasn't usable due to sargassum, but we were okay with the location. However, the A/C wasn’t cooling. We called maintenance twice that night, and finally at 11 PM, they admitted it was a cold water pressure issue. Instead of moving us, they let us use a different room just for the night. After a full day of complaints, they moved us to another room—only to find the water pressure and shower weren’t working properly either. We stayed anyway because we were tired of moving. Water stations only had hot water for two days, and we had to walk all the way to the lobby to get it. No bottled water for kids was available—only warm or tap water. The main pool and kids' pool were filthy. The water level was too low for circulation to work. There were many people, including children, swimming in non-recirculated dirty water. My child got a rash all over his body , a really bad rash that it has to be from the pool because it happened during our stay We asked about it to an employee at towels station and were told the main pool was under mainte

Probably this is was my worst stay. We checked in at 4pm. When we came to our room - it wasn't ready and we had to wait for 30 minutes. We ordered a room with two beds (for me and my son) but instead we got a room with only one bed. The next day power on our room totally went out. Repair men were spent a whole day trying to fix this major problem. When they finally fixed a power we found out that Air Conditioner is NOT working. So. Half of the NEXT day repair men were trying to fix an air conditioner without any success, so we called to desk and requested a room change. They agreed to our request and asked us to be ready for pick up and transfer to a new room. We waited for 4!!! hours in a room, waiting for a transfer... Finally we got transferred to a new room, which had no problem, except one - staff mostly "forgot" to clean our room on a daily basis. How could all this happened? Iberostar Bavaro is a premium hotel. I was expecting at least a normal service, which we didn't receive at all. Very sad. Also. Please add more chairs near a pool. They were all occupied before 9:am. Our family was a loyal to your hotels in Dominican and Mexico (at least 15 stays in the last 15 years), but now we will think twice before we decided to go into any of your hotels again.

Disliked: Very limited lights in the room. Only 2 wall outlets and were not functioning. AC unit is very old and super noisy, specially at night Beds were not comfortable. Restaurants are always booked, we were not able to make any reservations, so food option for us was very limited to buffet (not too many options either) and two other restaurants were were not interested. Likely, food wasn't a big deal for us and we still enjoyed our time. Overall we would stay at the same hotel again.

I was looking at a few different resorts and decided on Iberorstar Selection. I'm going to use this review to dispell some of the negatives i read about in other reviews: 1 - Food - Better than expected. Lots of options. At lunch there was always pizza and burgers at the grill, a pretty legit salar bar (including stuff like beet hummus) a make your own taco bar and then some rotating stations. There were some different ceviches one day that were great. Paella was available at a lot of meals and it was also very good. We got dinner at Brave steakhouse one night and it was also good. 2 - Pool Not very crowded when we were there. No issues getting loungers. We spent a lot of time the quiet pool and bounced back and forth to the ocean. There are bars by the pool and i never had to wait for a drink. 3- Timeshare presentation. This was only brought up to me once and it was when i was looking to book the Monkeyland excursion. They said if i see the presentation i can get a voucher. I just told them i'm only here for a few days and want to maximize my beach and pool time and they left me alone. Just be firm. 4 - roaches/waterbugs - In 5 days one made its way into out room one time. To be expected in a tropical area. I will also note we did not eat or bring any food into our room. 5 - Vendors- There are some walking up and down the beach but they never bothered us or came up to our loungers. Overall my family and i were satisfied with this resort and would return.

This was our 3rd time back at the iberostar Bavaro suites. We love the food, the set up next to the beach and the staff. In my opinion you get a lot for your money at this resort. All of the restaurants that we went to had delicious food options and we were very happy. Please keep in mind that the clientele is international so there are things you may not typically have in the United states but there are many options. Italian and the steak house are the restaurants that they gave us reservations to. Mexican and French were open to all and we could not get into Japanese. The beach is gorgeous and we had no problems setting up under a hut every day. Vino was great, he brought drinks directly to us on the beach every day! We did not set up at the pool. However, I did noticed that the chairs were all full each day. Cons: Yes, as wonderful as this resort is, there are some things that may be a deal breaker for some. The most annoying thing in my opinion is that they make you sit down with a “concierge” to book all of your dinner reservations. Out of 6 nights we were only given reservations for Italian and steak house. Concierge will try to upsell and if you don’t want it you don’t get your dinner reservations. Room was clean and comfortable but probably in need of a renovation. We spend most of time on resort so we were not picky. Spa- we loved upgrading and using the sauna/steam and cold plunge daily. Gym= beautiful and new. Entertainment = not good but something to do.
