Catalonia La Romana

Go here. As a couple who travelled to DR in the past and the experience was subpar we have decided to give it one last chance. And it paid off..this hotel exceeded our expectations BY FAR. Everything was awsome!! Staff super friendly, funny, chatty and to our service at all times with every single question we had! Not going to mention hotel property grounds etc because, we are talkin dominican here.. Food super good, large variety Rooms and accomodation modern spatious and always clean. Tips: try sushi at the beach bar All in all there are no words or pics to do this hotel justice so overall...GO HERE you won't regret

Stayed at the Catalonia Royal La Romana the week of May 11 to May 18. This was my 6th visit the Dominican Republic, the first time in La Romana. I've stayed in Punta Cana 5 times but always had my eye on La Romana and decided to change it up this time, and I'm glad I did! First off the beach is incredible! So much better then Bavaro beach! Absolutely no seaweed at all and the water is clear. White sand and palm trees along the beach. There are lots of palapas and are all taken by 7:30am - so make sure you're at the beach to snag one by at least 7:00am. Surprisingly the main pool you could go there at 9:00am and there were still lots of chairs available. My guess is because the beach is so nice... The resort is gorgeous. Lush greenery and more palm trees everywhere. One of the nicest walking resorts I've been to. The resort is well maintained and the rooms are nice and clean. One thing that stood out was how friendly all the resort workers were - they all greet you enthusiastically. Usually by the 6th day on vacation at a resort I'm ready to go home, but this time I wished I had booked a longer stay as I didn't want to leave. I believe the friendliness of the staff was the reason. Food was overall very good. The breakfast place by the beach is great - having breakfast right beside the ocean is the best way to start your day! The Eggs Benedict and Rancher breakfast are very good. I tried the traditional Domican breakfast and it was amazing. I only did one a la carte at the Mediterranean restaurant and it was very good as well. I ate dinner mostly at the buffet as they had a decent variety and there was ways something I could find that I liked. Disregard the negative comments about the food from other reviews, either these people complain for the sake of complaining or they are expecting a fine dining experience - remember this is an all- inclusive resort. If you are considering this resort you won't be disappointed. Book it!

This is the best hotel. Please visir Fantastic trip especially with my friend Janugel & Mary in the lobby. All other staff look to look after you they are so lovely. I can't wait to come back again, and we've come foe 7 visits so far. Would highly recommend xxx
