Staying at Barceló Bávaro Beach Resort in the Dominican Republic

Barcelo Bavaro Beach Resort

Earlier this summer, the Barceló Bávaro Beach Resort in the Dominican Republic invited me to come to Punta Cana and film a unique visual project. Along with other bloggers and vloggers from Spain and Brazil, I helped film and create an immersive video gallery of the resort experience.

Check out the full film gallery here!

Barceló Bávaro Beach Resort is a 5-star, all-inclusive resort situated on the pristine coastline of Punta Cana. It was my first time staying at an all-inclusive resort and it was an amazing experience!

Here are some of the highlights from Barceló Bávaro Beach Resort in the Dominican Replublic!

Barceló Bávaro beaches

Beaches

Barceló Bávaro is located on the beautiful seafront of Bávaro Beach. It is on the top 10 list of the best beaches in the world and is the best one in Punta Cana! The beach is protected by a coral reef so there isn’t a wave break making it perfect for swimming!

I also had a chance to go diving through the onsite PADI diving center. I highly recommend making time to dive during your stay. The reef is beautiful!

Check out my video of the Barceló Bávaro beaches!

Barceló Bávaro food

Food

Barceló Bávaro is a TOTAL foodie experience! To have lobster, fresh seafood AND free room service included in my stay was unbelievable!

The resort features 11 specialty restaurants- each a gourmet experience from around the world!

There were Japanese, Mexican, Spanish, French and Italian restaurants, a steak house, a seafood restaurant (right on the beach), and even a traditional Dominican-style buffet. Barceló Bávaro literally has something for everyone!

Barceló Bávaro rooms

Rooms

I was equally impressed with the comfort of the rooms. My room featured a jacuzzi tub on the balcony with an ocean view, the beds were soft and cozy, and the bathroom had a unique modern design with a waterfall walk-in shower.

I even got the chance to tour the penthouse suite and the private infinity pool is out of this world!

Check out my video of the Barceló Bávaro rooms!

Barceló Bávaro parasailing

Sports

The is SO much to do at the resort and I did my best to try everything! Between sailing in a hobie cat, beach volleyball, parasailing, scuba diving and kayaking, there’s no shortage of fun in the sun!

Check out my video of the Barceló Bávaro sports!

Barceló Bávaro Beach Resort is the ultimate all-inclusive experience in Punta Cana! Whether you come for the food, the pristine beaches, or a relaxing getaway it will be an experience you won’t forget!

    The most luxurious family-friendly stay at Four Seasons Boston @fsboston 🏢
    ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
    If you’ve been following along, you know we recently took a trip through New England for leaf-peeing and sightseeing amidst the crisp, Autumn foliage.

    We concluded our 10-day roadtrip at the amazing Four Seasons property in the historic city of Boston, Massachusetts.

    Four Seasons is known for their luxury and incredible service, but they really kick things up a notch for families here:

    🧸 The Mystery Toy Closet: As part of the VIK experience (aka Very Important Kid Experience), guests are given a large golden key that grants access to an AMAZING toy closet behind the front desk. Filled with trinkets like rubber ducks, slinkys, coloring books, and–Ollie’s favorite–wiggly frogs, this was SUCH an amazing and one-of-a-kind treat to experience.

    🍭 The Vault: One of the newer features to the Four Seasons Boston: a small room on each guest floor filled with complimentary snacks, candy, and beverages to grab-and-go!

    🛎️ Amenities: Once again, Four Seasons has outdone itself with its amazing service. This city retreat offers a complimentary coffee bar for guests (and hot chocolate for the little ones), 24-hour gym, a pool with a fantastic view, a world-class spa, and even a morning run club to get your Boston marathon fix in!

    🦞 The Food: Whether it’s in-room dining you’re after, quaint tea service in-between sight-seeing, or you want to experience New England’s famous seafood, Four Seasons treats your tastebuds with exquisite table-side service at their restaurant, Coterie.

    This was truly such a luxurious end to our trip, I wish we could have extended it just so we could enjoy more time at this fantastic property.

    A huge thank you to @fsboston for hosting us on our dream trip to New England and concluding our stay with memories that will last a LIFETIME!
