This resort looks beautiful. It is very poorly ran. There is only one buffet for breakfast. It is very crowded and understaffed. The waiters work very hard and very long hours. They do not have the time to give service. I have been to Punta Cana eight times and have never seen a place so poorly staffed. Please know that... More

I traveled with 3 family members from Feb 1 - 7 2012 and had read alot of the reviews and have to disagree with some of them. This is a great resort! FOOD: The food was great too! There were a couple of things on the table that did not meet my tastes but I just past them the next... More

This was our 5th time to Dominican and our worse vacation ever. It was so bad that we tried to make arrangements to go home after our first week. We were told that in order to do so we would have to pay our airfare back. We decided to tough it out. Most of the staff were pleasant, especially the... More

My boyfriend and I spent 1 week (our first vacation ) at IFA Bavaros Village. Our first time in DR. Prior to going, I read several reviews for this property and was a bit apprehensive about the food, and staff. It was absolutely the BEST vacation! The resort is beautiful, the staff are friendly, and the food was excellent! For... More

I went to this hotel during Christmas Vacation and I promise I will never go back. My first impression was : Wow, this is an amazing place! Look at the pools and the room is so amazing! It lasted for only one day! FOOD : The buffet is not so good. The food was really ordinary, lot of meat and... More

The staff is great, we managed to be served in french, english and spanish and most of the time they were courteous and polite. The site is well kept, the overall look is great. We felt secure and confident while being on the resort and nothing disappeared from our room. We used the safe (3$/day). We always left 1$ USD... More

This was our 3rd time to this Resort. For the most part it was very good. IFA Bavaro seem to be catering more to the younger crowd now than they were in the past. It was very noisy almost all the time. That being said, we did go during Spring Break. The food was good, the staff very friendly. If... More

Dominican Republic is the Caribbean's largest tourist destination. DR is the second largest Caribbean nation (after Cuba), with 10 million (poor) people. We’ve visited a couple of times and we like it; even stayed at this resort a few years ago. It has matured and features all facilities most (not all) people need for a great holiday or want for...

We went in April 2011 for a week. Now the price was amazing so that is why we jumped on this trip. The Food was average. Being Canadian it was more like a European food plan. Got very sick of the buffet after 1 meal. Now the entertainment at night was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. Staff were very nice especially the Margarita... More
