Before going to Punta Cana I eagerly awaited the latest reviews and forum updates on the Grand Palladium Bavaro Hotel. Since returning and reading some of the more recent ones I felt compelled to give some balance to future potential visitors as it's all too easy to write a solely negative/positive review. A little background - 2 couples travelling together... more

The Grand Palladium Bavaro it!s EVERYTHING that anyone could possibly want in a resort-Location, fine restaurants, beautiful beaches, tours, power sailing, immaculate landscaped grounds, palm trees, exotic birds and pink flamingos, several pools, great service, friendly accommodating staff, plenty of free entertainment, casino, free shuttle service around the entire resort...What else is there? Just a wonderful, one of a kind... more

At first, if you read this is because you like to do a little research before you book any trip. Yes, I really liked this trip. when we arrived at the resort land---there are three resorts in the same land but they are apart. the differece is the price, the name is a little different and one of them is... more

Well first off i would like to say that only the incredibly fussy people didn't like this hotel. not one bad thing happened on this holiday or at this hotel and being a 18 year old girl. i had alot to do and was occupied 24/7. The hotel was beautiful, didnt see any insects (accept mozzys) the whole time i... more

I simply love the GPBR. We arrived on time from STL. Our room wasn't ready (room 1141) until about an hour after we arrived at the hotel, but so what. We had a perfect location (close to the beach and close to all of the restaurants). This was our first time there and we were encouraged to leave our bags... more

Me and my girlfriend had the misfortune of spending two weeks in the Grand Palladium Bavaro, having first to cope with a 9 hour flight delay leaving Newcastle Airport things didnt get off to a great start. After the bad start im afraid to say that things soon progressed from bad to worse, we had money stolen from our locked... more

My husband and I visited the GPB June 22nd - June 29th for our honeymoon. Our flight went smoothly and we actually arrived early, around noon. Our ride there was interesting to say the least, I think a couple of people actually feared for their lives due to our crazy driver, who would pass anyone at anytime regardless if there... more

We stayed at the Grand Palladium Bavaro Resort and Spa from 6/20 thru 6/25. We had two Jr Suites for my husband and I along with our four teens ages 16-19. We all had an awesome time, but wished we would have stayed longer! The resort is beautiful and the staff (servers, bartenders, and animation team) are some of the... more

Well to start off, our flight to Punta Cana was real quick. Upon arrival you enter an outdoor airport, with the largest ceiling fans I have ever seen. After a short bus ride to our resort, we weren't able to check-in until 3. Let's just say we arrived to the resort around 11:30-11:45. So we walked around the resort and... more
