I spent a week in this hotel with my kids (ages 16, 13, 6). We had a two bed room suite. The suite was in bad shape. If you are going, request the suite on first or third floor so the Jacuzzi can get some heat from the sun. The one I had was on second floor and we could... More

Great place to really relax, not much to do......... More

We stayed at at Hotel in Bavaro Beach. It was an all inclusive place with bad food, loud music, small room with a view of a fence, with and unfriendly staff. We swithed hotels, and spent the rest of our vacation here. If you are look for a tranquil vacation, with great service, a large beautiful rooms with ocean views,... More

Quiet place all around, no annoying people, that you usually can see in all resorts in Punta Cana. Haromony with the nature and yourself!!! Another issue... More

I recently stayed at the Golden Bear lodge when I was in the Dominican Republic for a business weekend. The rooms were ok except for the roaches found in the bathroom. The biggest problem I had during my stay was with the security staff. I returned Cap Cana to retrieve my brief case and laptop for another meeting. In the... More
