Jan 27, 2026Winter sun jan 2026
Beautiful hotel in amazing grounds, rooms good, but we did get asked to move to a different room on day 3 they said there were issues with the room but would not say what the issue was! Be careful with your mobile I got moisture in mine and it would not charge for over a week. Beautiful beach seaweed cleared daily branded drinks but you have asked for these ie: smioff vodka and special brands of gin. Have dollar bills on hand for tipping, give the room maid tip at start and tip at end we did made a different. Mini bar stocked daily. Not many English when we stayed 12th till the 26th jan only us four, it was Argentina summer holidays so it was all of those, did not really cater for us but that was fine, might be different in other months. Food was good and plentiful. Shout out to janina on reception bar great at her job and remembered our orders.

Jan 27, 2026Good all inclusive at affordable price
Iberostar had been bought over by Intercontinental. We used to come a few years ago as it's a good place. This was our fourth time to the hotel but they didn't acknowledge it. It's a fairly small resort but with everything for everyone. Beach, pool, gym with classes, shops, coffee place and the golf. The positive is that now there isn't loud music blasting around the pool anymore, much better. The hotel has its own tractor to pick up the sargassum on the beach which is great, nextdoor hotel didn't seem to have one. The worse since it's been bought over is the quality of the food and drink is really less good. We stayed for 2 weeks and we were fed up with the food at the end, which is unusual for us. We are not picky. The most disappointing was the fact that the fresh fruit juices at breakfast were nearly always all off. I highlighted it to a manager who put a bit of juice on his hand, smelt it and didn't think anything was wrong. I spoke Spanish to him but he didn't say anything..... Most of the customers were either Spanish or South American or from the USA and Canada. I have always liked this hotel and still do but they should put a bit more attention to the food. Enjoy!

Iberostar waves Punta Cana Bavaro
English is not widely spoken here as many orders got mixed up with language barrier They do cater more for the many people from Argentina Hardly any English at all at this hotel We did see a Michael Jackson show which was quite good but many people were left stood up because there was not enough chairs ! We had a premium room which was ok couldn’t justify the price though Beach is lovely all along in Bavaro but if you want a good sunbed at the front you do have to get up really early Tea and coffee in the room no milk and no spoon We had an issue with the tv which was replaced after a week Rooms spotless and clean towels everyday It’s supposed to be a five star but Tui only rate it a 4 Food is ok but not very hot The staff are friendly

Amazing experience!
Despite a rainy day, we still had so much fun enjoying the all-inclusive bars and buffet meals! The spa was incredibly relaxing and we really enjoyed the ability to walk around the property safely, exploring all of the different shops and activities on the property.

Definitely Recommend! So much fun!
I had a day pass at Iberostar and had so much fun with my friends. Despite the fact that it actually rained all day, we still had a blast. The bartenders Oscar and Cairo were so friendly and entertaining, and they made our experience at the bar a 10/10. The live music with the saxophone player was so lovely, he even let us request some songs! The beach was also beautiful and they had a lot of seating options! We ate at the Mexican buffet and then the Dominican night buffet and they had so many food options! The Spa itself was nice, and their showers were great. It was cool that they had a bathing-suit dryer in the spa bathrooms! We also got to see the sustainability work they had been doing with their coral reefs and it's impressive! It was inspiring to see how much the company does on a sustainability aspect!
