In May, we again visited the Dominican Republic. We had as many as 12 nights, so it was decided to take 2 hotels for 6 nights each 1. Catalonia Royal Bavaro 5 *. 2. Majestic Elegance Punta Cana 5*
So Catalonia Royal Bavaro 5 * The hotel is excellent. Pros of the hotel: 1. Large green area, just a park, every tree and every bush with a sign. 2. Royal service involves a separate beach (really private), without children, a swimming pool, a buffet (lunch and dinner on the menu, breakfast buffet), but you can use the entire territory of the hotel (pool, buffet, ) An excellent buffet on the beach starts working from 12 of the day is very convenient, the main buffet is a variety of everything ( but also people there ………. . ), with fruits in May, tension (there were watermelons, papaya (so-so), pineapple, passion fruit, melon (unsweetened), mango ( apparently different variety not juicy at all) was always lacking. Excellent cocktails in unlimited quantities. Restaurants a la carte so-so. Nothing special. 3. Most importantly, silence, who wants to have fun then on the territory of Catalonii.
A variety of animation during the day on the beach in the pool, and in the evenings near the main buffet. The rooms have internet, (royal service) as well as at the reception, but the speed leaves much to be desired. 4 Sea - (can be attributed to both pluses and minuses) for mothers with children, it’s just a paradise shallow and warm, for those who like to swim, only the pool, in the sea of ​ ​ water, literally knee-deep. There is no promenade along the shore. To the right, the deserted beach is not big and it disappears. and with us, life……. . no comment. ) There is also a deserted beach to the left, parking of boats and several hotels in the distance, one of them is Natura Park Beach, where the sea is deeper and the territory is also very beautiful. 5 rooms with direct ocean view 10% if not less, so see view lovers don't flatter yourself.

The rooms have everything you need, the downside is that there is no bathroom as such with a door, the room has a bath right in the room 50 cm from the bed (in the advertising booklets there is information about the jacuzzi), but it's just a round bath without bells and whistles at 100% humidity dare not use
Conclusion: Great, relaxing stay

After a short move, we ended up in Majestic Elegance Punta Cana 5 * A short wait and we were in the room. The room has a balcony and a huge loggia, which has a jacuzzi and two sun loungers (not in all rooms).
The room has one almost Russian channel (Belarusian, so if the longing for the Russian language crushes, that is, an outlet) fenced off by a thin glass door When you check in as a gift, a battery of booze (rum, liquor, whiskey, and the funniest vodka "Arktika" product of Ukraine) The territory of the hotel is smaller, which is both an advantage (everything is close) and a disadvantage (there is nowhere to walk for fat shake after a heavy feast).
The main restaurant is more interesting food is almost the same except for grilled lobsters, which are served on the beach in the evening in unlimited quantities, the buffet on the beach is in no way inferior to the main restaurant. A la carte: good Japanese, and Mexican, the rest are so-so.
The promenade along the beach to the right and to the left is crazy if you go left there you saw the new Moon Palace Casino & Spa Resort Punta Cana 5 * I really liked the territory there was an idea to go there next time There is no Internet in the rooms, and the funny thing is that it is paid in the lobby 5 y. i. e. in 30 minutes the speed is appropriate, in 30 minutes they only managed to look through the mail, and then not all of it. For a birthday, a gift from the hotel, a cake with candles and a song from the staff (fun and pleasant), and balloons and a corresponding inscription are hung on the door of the room
In general, the rest was a success in comparison, these two hotels are almost identical in terms of service level, each has its pros and cons. But I can say that in Majestic Elegance Punta Cana 5 * I would go again, and in Catalonia Royal Bavaro 5 * I would hardly want to return
