My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. While the location by the beach was great and the staff was friendly, I ran into significant issues with the rooms. The dining experience left something to be desired, as the options were somewhat limited. Overall, I appreciated the amenities available, but there were definitely some problems that need addressing.

I recently stayed at this hotel, and I have to say, it was quite an experience! The location is absolutely stunning, right next to the beach, which made my holiday feel like a dream. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, especially Julio at the front desk who made us feel so welcome. However, the dining options were a bit limited and could use some improvement. Overall, it was a good value for the money, but the rooms were quite plain with just the essentials.

The hotel has a prime location just steps away from the beach, and the staff was incredibly friendly and helpful throughout our stay. The room was a bit smaller than expected, leaving limited space for our belongings. Dining options were quite limited, especially for those who don't eat red meat, but the pool was enjoyable and well-kept. Overall, it's a decent place, but there are definitely areas for improvement.

My stay at Whala Bavaro was quite a mixed bag. The location was fantastic, just a short walk to the beach and everything you could need. The rooms were decent and the staff were hardworking, although occasionally a bit disorganized. However, the service left a lot to be desired, especially concerning communication and professionalism. Overall, it was a reasonably priced stay, but I'd have liked a little more consistency in service quality.

The hotel itself is quite modern and well laid out, with clean rooms that feature perfect air conditioning and good shower facilities. I found the service to be friendly, but the staff mainly spoke Spanish, which could be a bit limiting. The location has its pros and cons—while there are plenty of sunbeds by the pools, the outdoor spaces can feel a bit crowded. I enjoyed the dining options, but they did get repetitive after a while. Overall, it offers good value for money but just short of perfection.

I had quite the mixed experience at this hotel. The location is great, right by the beach, and while the staff was friendly, I faced some issues with the rooms at first. The dining options were decent but lacked variety, and I did find the facilities generally good. However, the initial room I was given had some unpleasant issues and was quite outdated, which detracted from my stay.
Rooms

Initially, I was disappointed because the first room was small and outdated, and it even overlooked a construction zone. Unfortunately, it also had a weird smell from the nearby water treatment. However, after raising my concerns, I was moved to a suite on the other side, which was definitely worth it and much better for the money I paid.

The hotel is positioned right in front of the beach, which is a major plus, but the pool area felt a bit crowded with too many sunbeds and not much personal space. It's also interesting how people would migrate from right to left based on the sun. Just remember not to cross the blue rope, or security will move you back.

I had a great stay at the hotel with spacious, quiet rooms and a fantastic bathroom. The air conditioning worked perfectly, but it was a bit of a letdown to have the view overlook a car park and ongoing construction. The service was friendly and accommodating, although I did face some issues with restaurant bookings due to a language barrier. The location was ideal for enjoying the beautiful beach, but accessing the hotel through the narrow alleyway was uncomfortable at times. Overall, it was a good experience, just not without its quirks.
