I am going to make this short and sweet. The resort is wonderful and the staff, and the food was excellent. If you can't find something that you like either at the buffet or restaurants you have a big problem. I will say the resort is large, but they have trans that run every 5 minutes and will pick you up on the paths. We walked from the beach (the beach is beautiful ) to the lobby and it was a 15 minute relaxing walk enjoying the sites. I usually stay at the Iberostar Bavaro Punta Cana or Hacienda Dominicus, LaRomana which are smaller resorts, but I would go back to the Bavaro Princess. I have no complaints, I was there from June 23 - June 30. Enjoy and feel free to send me an email

While the resort, pool, facilities and the staff were excellent. The food was o.k. I was expecting wonderful seafood and was very disappointed. Beware everyone of the jewelry store. My friend used her credit card there and found out they duplicated her number and was purchasing items in Florida. I would recommend this resort despite the problems at the jewelry store.

Let me start out by saying this resort is paradise, but I went to the resort with my 2 sons (16 & 14) and we were looking for other kids that they could hang out with and the resort was mainly honeymooners,couples and older travelers. I was looking for nightlife and there is no nightlife and everyone goes to bed early. This resort was just not what were were looking for but if you are a couple and want total relaxation then this is the place. Checkout was awesome and I got a great room next to the pool bar and couldn't ask for a better room. The first day I played water polo and I have to warn you to wear water shoes because the bottom of the pool ripped up my feet and I was in pain for about 2 days. The rooms are very nice and plenty of room. Every employee that I spoke with seemed happy at the resort and they work very hard. The gym is very nice for a resort and had modern equipment and plenty of equipment. If anyone has questions please e-mail me.

We just returned from the Bavaro Princess June 17 - 24 2008 and i must say what a great week. I wont drag out this review too much, you can contact me for anything specific you want to know. my advice is to go enjoy your time get to know the staff and animation team their sole job is to help you relax and have fun. participate when they ask you will have fun.
Check in was quick and easy.
The room was awesome no problems
The beach was amazing largest of all surrounding resorts .
Buffet had plenty of variety for everyone.
Bella pasta Italian very good
El Gaucho Steak not Outback but good
Tanuki Japanes Steakhouse was great a definite redo when we go back.
A side note about the reservation restaurants..men must wear pants and that includes teenagers, don't be a pain and think you are going to change that rule deal with it, it does not hurt you.
Staff was outstanding and i mean everyone we encountered was friendly and helpful. HOLA to all.
The Animation Team deserves a special recognition for all their hard work from 9 am to midnight everyday with just one job..to entertain you. they do a great job, get to know these guys their great.
Go enjoy yourself and leave all attitudes at home they won't work here and all you miserable people do is annoy everybody else. If you don't have patience stay home this time next year that way i am guaranteed a reservation spot with no problem..
A Domincan minute is anything but a minute, so where are you in a hurry to go didn't you get away for a change of pace?
I saw people who could adapt and have a great time and I saw people who were miserable with life in general. they will write bad reviews just because the sun came up or the wind blew today. Open your mind to the island lifestyle your on vacation enjoy. People asked us all week how we got waited on so fast over others. this is how I figured it, we saved a bunch of money by going here so with what i would have tipped at restaurants and places on vacation in the states i just gave to the people i thought did a great job there. contact for more info and to all we saw there remember BUBBA SPORT MUGS RULE!!!!
