Do NOT stay here!!! This is by far the worst resort in Punta Cana. There's a reason it's sold at such a discount. We're a couple from Philadelphia and recently stayed here for a week. The list of problems is long but here are the highlights: * the air conditioning had cigarette smoke coming through and didn't work for most... more

We just returned on the 26th of August from Paradise Bavaro, Punta Cana. We were travelling with 7 people, 4 of which we paid adult fare for and 3 which were children (ages 6, 8 and 10). It was extremely important to us that we had two rooms, one to accommodate the two teenagers (age 15 and 17) and the... more

Aug. 25, 2008 Just came back from Grand Paradise Bavaro Resort and Spa in Punta Cana. Since we arrived we had problems.

Starting with the checkin it was smooth and efficient. The lady agent that checked us in was very professional and... more

Stayed at Grand Paradise Bavaro from July31 -Aug 7. Went with boyfriend and another couple. Like others we were a little scared on what to expect because of the reviews we had read. when we got to the resort all i had to say was what were ppl thinking writing bad reviews. we arrive at Punta Cana airport on Thursday... more

It's funny how in the 4 reviews before this one, the 2 that hated the place were from the States, and the 2 that loved it were from Canada. I've been to my share of resorts, and let me tell you, this was one of the best time I've had. It's funny to read what people complain about - tip... more
