Our stay was great. The staff really wants your experience to be amazing.
This is our fourth time staying at this hotel and it’s always a great experience. This place is Well established, and they are working hard on updating all the facilities. It’s clean, well maintained, and incredible landscape. Like any other place, things can go wrong, but what makes this place extra special is the warmth of the employees there. They go above and beyond to make sure you have a pleasant stay. Some have been there for years and they treat you like family!
excellent service. great staff. Beautiful beaches. good food. Abundance of alcohol.
The resort was so beautiful! There is a lot of walking but it was fine since we ate a lot! The food could’ve been a little better but the hibachi restaurant was amazing. The beach was nice! The resort staff primarily speak Spanish, of course, so the translation was difficult. But we had a great time. They have activities for children and their own areas which was good for my group since we had only adults with us and can get loud. The website mentions the restaurants have a dress code and men can’t wear shorts but they do not abide by those rules at all. I even saw a few guys wearing T-shirt’s and running shoes. Overall, it was a great vacation and we’ll be back again!
I loved this resort. Everything was beautiful! The staff was amazing and the drinks were even better! I have to give a shout out to our favorite bartender Rayden!
a lot of annoyance from staff hotel to show us Maravilloso Hotel
Staff was very friendly and helpful. There seemed to be not enough beach towels available but overall stay was wonderful.
The overall resort was pretty nice, the visual perspective of everything was nice. Only downfall was trapped rain water that covered the path, which wasn’t taken care of for the whole stay. Came in at 10am knowing that check in was at 3pm so I was fine with the wait, as I had other friends on the resort. Went to the front counter at 3pm finding a bunch of people waiting for their rooms who have just arrived from their flights. I walked up and was told my room wasn’t ready, to give them another 30 minutes to get me a room. I come back and found those people that got there after me, getting their rooms. I was told to take a seat and wait, while everyone else was getting rooms. I had to walk up to the “boss” as they said until they finally gave me a room. Room had stains all over the curtains, didn’t even decide to change the next day, when room cleaning came a long. Also the frame for the curtain was lopsided. Floor tiles sounded like they weren’t even cemented to the floor correctly as each step produced a such noice of the tile scraping on hard cement.
The property isn't extravagant, but was amazing in amenities and staff. We have traveled to many locations in the Caribbean and this by far has been the best trip to date. Staff went out of their way to accommodate every request we had and services was on the spot the entire trip (a special thank you to some of our favorites; Bismark at check-in, Juan our bellhop, Franchesca at Pure privilege bar, Sami at the main lobby bar, Hector at main buffet). The restaurants were wonderful and buffets were decent. Thank you Catalonia Punta Cana for a fabulous trip!
The property was beautiful, the room was great, everything was within walking distance and the waitstaff and bartenders were excellent! The one thing we didn’t like was that the hotel sales staff were extremely pushy to the point where we would try to find different routes to dinner to avoid them.
Love this resort and the staff, they keep us coming back again and again! This time we stayed on the family side with our kids. The kids loved every minute!
We loved the staff and food most of all during our stay. WiFi was spotty but I was there to enjoy the beach and resort rather than be on my phone etc. like my children. The kids loved playing volleyball on the beach. I would recommend talking with staff about excursions instead of going online and planning yourself. If you have a good experience and want to, tip the staff discreetly as they have to share tips with others. Overall awesome trip we would stay at Catalonia Resort again.
Nice hotel, very pleasant, the personal esa very nice with my kids.
This was our 3rd stay at the Catalonia Punta Cana Privileged. We love the golf & the beautiful grounds. The beach is very unique with a sand bar that allows you to walk over 100 yards out in waist-deep water that is crystal clear and calm. Ultimately, the thing that keeps us coming back is the excellent staff & service. Our favorite hangout is the Pure Bar where Alvin, Jennifer and Pauline make us feel like family. At the lobby bar, Eddie always greets us with a big smile and remembers our favorite drinks. We recommend this resort to all our friends.
Pros: Friendly and helpful staff. Variety of food in the buffet. Fun entertainment and activities. Cons: Rooms need more care. AC not cooling well. AC leaking. Restaurants are mediocre and are limited to food alergies. Beds, curtains sheets, pillows need to be checked thoughly for rips, tears, stains AND bed bugs.
