Earlier this summer, the Barceló Bávaro Beach Resort in the Dominican Republic invited me to come to Punta Cana and film a unique visual project. Along with other bloggers and vloggers from Spain and Brazil, I helped film and create an immersive video gallery of the resort experience.
Check out the full film gallery here!
Barceló Bávaro Beach Resort is a 5-star, all-inclusive resort situated on the pristine coastline of Punta Cana. It was my first time staying at an all-inclusive resort and it was an amazing experience!
Here are some of the highlights from Barceló Bávaro Beach Resort in the Dominican Replublic!
Beaches
Barceló Bávaro is located on the beautiful seafront of Bávaro Beach. It is on the top 10 list of the best beaches in the world and is the best one in Punta Cana! The beach is protected by a coral reef so there isn’t a wave break making it perfect for swimming!
I also had a chance to go diving through the onsite PADI diving center. I highly recommend making time to dive during your stay. The reef is beautiful!

Food
Barceló Bávaro is a TOTAL foodie experience! To have lobster, fresh seafood AND free room service included in my stay was unbelievable!
The resort features 11 specialty restaurants- each a gourmet experience from around the world!
There were Japanese, Mexican, Spanish, French and Italian restaurants, a steak house, a seafood restaurant (right on the beach), and even a traditional Dominican-style buffet. Barceló Bávaro literally has something for everyone!
Rooms
I was equally impressed with the comfort of the rooms. My room featured a jacuzzi tub on the balcony with an ocean view, the beds were soft and cozy, and the bathroom had a unique modern design with a waterfall walk-in shower.
I even got the chance to tour the penthouse suite and the private infinity pool is out of this world!

Sports
The is SO much to do at the resort and I did my best to try everything! Between sailing in a hobie cat, beach volleyball, parasailing, scuba diving and kayaking, there’s no shortage of fun in the sun!

Since it’s all inclusive, is it customary to tip the staff, servers, bartenders?
It is not required or asked for, but you are welcome to leave tips for staff. I’ve found that service at all-inclusive resorts is usually above and beyond, so I like to show my appreciation with tips most of the time!
thinking of going to stay here in late March at the Adults Only side, how is the place/food/drinks and is it close to town
I enjoyed it! It’s more like it’s own town, so you’d need to organize transportation to get anywhere off property.
