We stayed at the Barcelo June 7 – 20th. I would have to say that the highlight for us was the excellent support that the resort gave us during the time of a medical emergency. The day before we were to leave, my son was experiencing abdominal pain and ultimately had his appendix removed. The hotel provided us with a... more

It was our first time in Dominican and we loved it! Beautiful convenient location. Awesome beach. Clean rooms. Good food. Staff was friendly and helpful. Nice entertainment. We would highly recommend it and would definitely stay there again. more

This hotel isn`t a 4 star but more like a 5 star. The atmosphere, food, drinks, entertainment and staff treat you like your a king or queen. I stayed there with my wife for 1 week and for sure we will go next time (possibly in Jan 2009 for 2 weeks) i recommend it to everybody. We booked our trio... more

Five of us, two parents and three teenage sons, stayed at Barcelo April 9, 2008 to April 16, 2008 flying out of Halifax with Air Transat.

Well...I read about 100 reviews on this resort after i had already booked, and let me tell you...I was terrified.I thought i was going to find bloody sheets, moldy bathrooms, terrible food, a garbage filled beach....I found none of that. I have travelled to Hedonism II which was supposedly a 5 star super all inclusive, as well as Gran Ventana... more

This resort was excellent, our room was beautiful, had vaulted ceilings, king size bed, great shower, strong and quiet air conditioning. The pool was great except there's no deep end, the whole pool is about 5 feet deep. But great for wading around with a drink from the swim up bar, which unfortunately closes at only 7pm :( . The... more

We went April 15-22. Last minute deal, so we got a bargain. Overall it was fine-- especially for the price. Just to clarify the word "premium"-- We got a package through Air Transat-- which included a premium room and a separate check-in desk. This means that you get a bottle of rum, a plate of fruit, and robes in your... more
