My husband and I just returned from our third trip to Punta Cana and our first time staying at the Iberostar Grand Bavaro. We have travelled extensively, staying at numerous all inclusive (A1) resorts (all 5 stars) and in comparison; the Iberostar Grand is absolutely wonderful. I am an extremely picky person and not at all easy to please. My... More

I thought the place was very good. Beautiful resort, rooms were great, pool and beaches were clean. The food was pretty good. Nothing amazing, but nothing I disliked either. The only issue I had is that I had trouble communicating with the staff. I speak American English and know Spanish from school, but can't speak it fluently. I constantly felt... More

Our stay was absolutely incredible. OUr travel agency screwed up our transfer reservations, and even though Iberostar was not responsible for this part of our trip, their Guest Services Manager, Melissa, went to great lengths to make sure everything would be taken care of. The hotel is in fantastic shape, the food is great, the staff is sooo nice and... More

I just read Kathleen B. from Philadelphia's review, that is one bitter woman. I will try to keep this short and readable. Just came back from a week at the IGB. The place is the Best All Inclusive my wife and I have ever stayed at. All the staff were wonderful, but just to mention a few, Laura the young... More

Just got back form this hotel in paradise. Spent 6 nights with my boyfriend and there is hardly anything to complain about. Restaurants-yes, it is difficult to get reservations but we managed to eat at all of them by nicely approaching the woman at the desk near the restuarants. In order, 1. Surf and Turf, 2. Japanese, 3. French and... More

Where to even begin? Let's make a list here regarding the absolute disappointment provided by our week long stay at the Grand Hotel: - Check-in: Was terrible. Laura, our disgruntled and rude front desk staff member, gave a miserable impression from the get-go. She made no explanations as to anything, spoke in a nasty, snappy, and condescending tone, and gave... More

Beautiful well groomed landscape and beach. Well managed resort. Great service. Excellent food. Private, quiet rooms. Pleasant pool area. Clean. Good variety of options for food, entertainment, excursions etc. Professional entertainment in the evenings but not to my taste. Weather was perfect. We were a part of Apple Vacations and it was great to leave here at 7 AM and... More

This was our 4th time to the Iberostar Grand Bavaro, we were there from February 2nd to February 9th, 2012 – we emailed Freddy (the reservation manager) and requested an upper level room facing the ship. Freddy came through (thank you Freddy) and gave us room 7309 – which was the first room we had at the Grand in 2009... More

We've been to all several inclusive resorts in Mexico and throughout the Caribbean and would easily confirm this as the best we've stayed at to date! Some comments: - Pool service was tremendous. Rosie & Leady were always there with a smile and a beverage! - Activities staff was very good. Poolside games were fun, and the staff did a... More
