Résumé des avis

The overall cleanliness of the resort and rooms is highly appreciated, as is the beautiful beach, perfect for walks. The food is excellent and varied, complemented by courteous staff providing excellent service. Furthermore, the expansive grounds are well-maintained, and the rooms are spacious and comfortable. However, the service is occasionally perceived as slow, and communicating in French at reception can sometimes be a challenge.

Pleasant stay, very large complex
Séjour agréable, très grand complexe

This is a hotel I recommend, especially for those who like large resorts! We stayed at the Select Bavaro (but had access to almost all the beaches). I've seen more beautiful beaches; it's not very wide, and unfortunately, there was a lot of sargassum seaweed when we went in June! The Asian restaurant was our favorite of all the ones we tried. As for daytime entertainment, there wasn't enough for my taste. However, there were several pool options. Cleanliness was excellent, whether it was the rooms, restaurants, or the resort in general. The staff was friendly, except for two or three people in particular whose attitude disappointed us.

C'est un hôtel que je recommande, pour ceux qui aime les grands complexes évidemment! Nous avons séjourné au Select Bavaro (mais accès presque partout)
J'ai déja vu plus belle plage, elle n'est pas très large et malheureusement beaucoup de sargasses quand nous sommes allés en Juin!
Le restaurant asiatique a été notre favoris parmi ceux qu'on a été.
Côté animation le jour, il n'en avait pas suffisamment a mon goût. Plusieurs choix de piscines par contre.
La propreté est au rendez vous que ce soit chambre, restaurants ou complexe en général.
Le personnel a été gentil, mis a part 2-3 personnes en particulier qui nous ont déçus par leur attitude.

Beautiful resort with a few minor points to improve
Beau resort avec des petits points à améliorer

Beautiful, clean resort. Very nice beach. The cocktails were okay, nothing special, but better at the lobby bar. The à la carte restaurants were so-so; it's very difficult to get reservations at the restaurants you want, even if you book a day or two in advance. The Paisana restaurant was 10/10, but the Mexican and Indian meals were very ordinary. Good, varied buffet.

Beau site, propre
Très belle plage
Les cocktails étaient ok sans plus mais meilleur au bar du lobby
Restaurant à la carte soso, très difficile d’avoir des réservations dans les restaurants qu’on désire meme si réservation fait la 1-2e journée
Le restaurant paisana 10/10 mais le mexicain et indien les repas étaient très ordinaire
Bon buffet varié

The beach is magnificent 😍
Plage est magnifique 😍

Grand Palladium Select Bavaro - the hotel and room are very clean and well-maintained. The beach is magnificent. The buffets offer a lot of variety, but the food is mediocre. The à la carte restaurants are excellent; book early on your first morning of arrival, otherwise there won't be any availability. The staff are very friendly and wonderful. There are many vendors on the beach. They leave quickly with a "no thank you," but it gets tiring after a while.

Grand Palladium Select Bavaro - l’hôtel et la chambre sont très propres et bien entretenus. La plage magnifique. Les buffets offrent beaucoup de variété mais la bouffe est médiocre. Les restaurants à la carte sont excellents, réservez tôt le premier matin de votre arrivé sinon il n’y aura pas de disponibilité. Les employés sont très chaleureux et magnifiques. Il y a beaucoup de vendeur sur la plage. Ils partent vite avec un non merci mais c’est fatiguant à la longue.

AMAZING
INCROYABLE

Incredible trip with Family Selection. The only problem is that the vendors on the beach are really tiresome; there's one every three minutes.

Voyage incroyable en family selection. Le seul probleme c'est que les vendeur sur la plage sont vraiment faaaaaatiguants au 3 minutes il y en a un
