My boyfriend and I stayed at IFA Bavaro Village in January of 2008. We booked through expedia and had no troubles with vouchers for airport parking or transfer to and from the Punta Cana airport. The hotel was nice and had ok food (same things every night though). There was not much to do late night- just a nightly show.... more

I would recommend learning some basic Spanish for communication. I found the staff to be very friendly. The beds/pillows were very comfortable. Our air conditioning was not working properly... more

I'll start by saying that I have lived in and travelled often to the Dominican Republic. I have stayed in local homes; 2 star hotels; and 4 start resorts. My experience at the IFA Bavaro Village failed to meet any of my Dominican expectations. First the staff. With few notable exceptions, most of the staff members looked unhappy and unfriendly.... more
