We spent a week at Grand Bavaro Princess, Oct 27-Nov 3. The hotel is extremely large which is great because you are spread out, the only thing is you have to take a train to get around, which can sometimes be full. The resort itself is beautiful and very clean. The rooms are extremely spacious with a beautiful bathroom and large balcony. The food offerings are expansive and very good. The sports bar is also a great place to hangout. Two people stuck out to us, Victor from the sports bar was incredible, he is so nice and always makes sure you are taken care of and he serves an incredible number of people! Melvin from the pool bar was also a great guy and took care of us all week long and is truly an awesome guys! Thank you Victor and Melvin! The only things I’d say need to be improved is the phone system, you can never get through to anyone at the front, and the train system needs to come more often or more trains. Other than that, our stay was wonderful and the resort id recommend!

We came to celebrate our honeymoon and had a wonderful time. Excellent service, fun activities and a wonderful beachside dinner for us platinum guests. Dalvid is a wonderful karaoke host, Estefania,Mayerlin are great hostess as well . We definitely recommend everyone to try out their Platinum package it is 100000% worth it . We will definitely be coming back soon . The food was 100% delish and the service was amazing. Can’t wait to come back ! Most unexpected honeymoon trip and was wonderful.

We stayed hear the last week od September. The grounds were beautiful here, but I would not go back. The staff wasn't very friendly except the bartenders (especially Jaime at the 24/7 pub). Our room smelled moldy and was not very updated. It was hard to communicate because most of the staff did not speak English. Room service was terrible. The Platinum area was definitely worth the extra money. We loved the Cappachino hut and PBG restaurant. The ala cart restaurants were very good as well. Be prepared to walk a lot. Everything is spread out. There are shuttles, but they aren't always available when you jeed one. Definitely not a 5 star resort - closer to 3.5.

* Stayed here for 5 nights and honestly, it was one of the most disappointing resort experiences I’ve had.
* The rooms are nice, clean, and modern and that’s probably the only good part.
* The resort itself feels empty and lifeless. It’s like walking around a ghost town. Most guests are much older, and there’s zero energy or entertainment vibe.
* The food is unbelievably bad. I don’t know how you can mess up simple things like burgers, fries, or even coffee but they somehow managed to do that.
* Desserts, ice cream, crepes, coffee all were terrible. Nothing tastes fresh or well made.
* The staff barely speaks English, which makes basic communication frustrating. You end up relying on Google Translate for the simplest things.
* On top of that, some staff members come off as rude or uninterested, which adds to the negative experience.
* The drinks are okay, nothing special.
* The food quality does not match what you’d expect from an all inclusive resort, especially one that calls itself “five-star.”
* We had to order uber eats for last 3 days in a all inclusive resort to just to survive.

I stayed here with my wife and toddler son in April of 2025 and September of 2025
In April I gave GPB a 5 star well deserved rating. Everything was above and beyond. The beach, room service, Food, Staff, cleanliness and modern style. We decided to come back and didn’t realize it is what is called low season in September and October. The price was great this time around and alot of elements were still 5 star. The cons I will say are as follows: the beach was flooded with seaweed due To tropical storms. The Room service staff were less equipped and cleaning was a bit poor. There were alot of mosquitos and sand flies that bite on our balcony and throughout the resort and beach. Off spray just wouldn’t cut it. And the main reason I won’t go back in low season were the few sightings of large sized cockroaches in our room and the main lobby outdoor area. Just a heads up if these are deal breakers for you.
