We just finished our second time visiting the Catalonia Royal, the first time was 3 yrs ago, and all I can say is this hotel has become even better than we remembered it. The staff will now go around the pool and beach taking orders when they are not busy. The staff are what makes this hotel awesome they are... More

We arrived home on 5/22 and we had a lovely time. I will list the positives first: Clean resort, with lovely staff. . The pools and beach (private) are great and their drinks are awesome. The only true complaint I have is the food. I understand that they have to cater to people from all over the world, but it... More

It was our first time staying at an all-inclusive resort, and we were left with very little to complain about. Since we arrived earlier than check-in the concierge recommended that we have lunch at Thalassa to kill some time beforehand. Once our room was ready, the bellboy loaded our luggage in a golf cart and drove us to our room.... More

How anyone can say this hotel is poor or terrible is beyond me. Flew Thompsons from Manchester for 2 weeks (4th May), paid £1,250 per person for deluxe room. Punta Cana airport you can exchange pound sterling at a rate of 53 pesos per pound (same as back home). Room - we had a non-smoking room although you can smoke... More

I will add to the this review as the week progress, number one dont come here. I am here right now and nothing goes right here. First off food is gross, when I mean gross its almost unadible. I have been eating banana cake only. They cant even make eggs right, so if you want to loss weight come here.

We came to catalonia after 4 nights stay in Paradisius palma real. Our 1st impression of catalonia was not very positive, because the property in itself is not very grand. The reception is small & the building is small. We were given a room near the beach & we were absolutely depressed with the room. Mouldy smell, no internet, ac... More

We stayed for 7 days/nights for our 5 year anniversary. Overall it was very good given our goals of reasonable cost, adults only-all inclusive, proximity to airport, and quality of beach/ocean. Fifteen minute cab ride was great; the facility is kept clean and has been updated even though it is obviously older. We were in building 42 south facing, it... More
