Five-Star Hotels in Bayahibe

Choice of dining, quality of food and service was excellent. Spotlessly clean throughout. Enclave check in process was a nice touch.

Everything. The best hotel I have ever stayed.

Beautiful view where we can get handsome sunset. Calm and confortable, we spent great holidays there.

Great place to relax. Room was well decorated. Staff was fantastic. Smiley and very happy to help.

I like that the TV had Netflix and YouTube available.

I stayed with my nephew at Catalonia Bayahibe for 6 nights between 31st Jan - 6th Feb. The hotel is located in Bayahibe - La Romana, one of the most beautiful areas of DR and probably the best beach: Caribbean crystal clear water and clean smooth light brown/white coloured sand ( NO sargassum at all here! ). The hotel is located about 45 min to 1 hour drive (depending on traffic) by car or taxi from Punta Cana airport). We were welcomed at the reception with a cold refreshing drink and the check-in process was smooth and informative! After that we were guided to our Privileged Deluxe Room with amazing view of the gardens. The room clean and modern with all basic amenities. They welcome you with a bottle of DR rum as a present and french macarons! All the drinks inside the fridge are free and are replaced daily if consumed. There is also water bottles for teeth brushing since the tap water should be avoided. The room is cleaned quite often and the towels are changed daily. The pool, the beach and the restaurant areas are all beautiful and well maintained. The gardens are amazing and perfectly preserved. The sunbeds are separated according to room type/hotel section but most of the other facilities are used by all guests equally. For some restaurants (dinner) you need to book a day or a couple of days ahead but for the main buffet (breakfast-lunch-dinner) you are free to enjoy with no booking. Everything is all inclusive: food, sallads, snacks, desserts, fruits, drinks, coffee, water etc. There is lots of food variety of good quality and taste. There are also bars/cafes to grab something to eat or drink. There is also a place serving crepes of your choice close to the beach. Water and ice provided by the hotel (even when not bottled) is safe to drink. Beach towels you get everyday from the personal close to the pool. The thing that people wake up early to secure their sunbeds by leaving their towels is true.

Everything. Special mention to the staff. They are always looking to make you feel welcome and to give you what you need or want, even before you know it. :). Kuddos to Maroni and to Berenice in the beach bar. Well, everyone really. I don't recall this level of extremely good service in long time ...

EVERYTHING was exceptional, rooms, food, service, facilities, pools and breathtaking beach.

This was my 5th visit at this hotel, the first being in 2002, when the resort had just opened, and my last one 10 years ago. The rooms are now renovated, as well as the bathrooms, which were updated to the current standards. The entire area has developed quite a bit, there are now shops nearby and places where you can spend time. When I was there last, there was nothing around the hotel. Now it's a small village with inner roads and dozens of small shops and small hotels. The port is now 5 minutes away just east of the resort, so it is easy to leave and arrive for/from excursions. The best restaurant in the resort is still the Gheisha (japanese). The kids loved the stay and can't wait to get back :)
