Florainy was absolutely amazing, and her service was truly incredible throughout our entire stay. The people working at this resort genuinely make all the difference in creating an exceptional experience for guests. Their dedication, warmth, and professionalism elevated what could have been just another vacation into something truly memorable and special. I also want to give special recognition to the wonderful older gentleman who works at the front entrance of the resort. Every time we arrived, he greeted us with such warmth and genuine enthusiasm that it immediately set a positive tone for the day. His friendly demeanor and welcoming presence made us feel valued as guests from the very first moment we entered the property. Unfortunately, I didn't manage to catch his name, but his contribution to our experience was invaluable. He represents the kind of hospitality that makes guests want to return again and again. The staff working at the buffet also deserve tremendous praise for their outstanding service. They were attentive, helpful, and always ready with a smile, no matter how busy they were. They kept the dining area immaculate, ensured that all the food stations were well-stocked and fresh, and went out of their way to accommodate any special requests or dietary needs. Their efficiency and kindness made every meal a pleasant experience, and they contributed significantly to the overall quality of our stay. It's clear that this resort has assembled a team of dedicated pro

The quiet time at the hotel and the clearness was great but the service was not the attitude of some of the staff member didn’t like. The other thing that we didn’t like is that they keep on asking us to offer a service and we didn’t really want to be bother we wanted just peace and quiet. The food was ok but not impressive.

En general la estadía estuvo muy buena. El hotel muy bonito, las áreas limpias. En algo que si en general el hotel debe mejorar es en el área de servicio al cliente. Inicialmente tuve una experiencia agridulce con la chica encargada de orientar a los clientes para las reservas de los restaurantes, notamos que no se esmero por satisfacer las necesidades del grupo en el día que inicialmente llegamos al hotel, al final nos resolvió, pero uno se queda con el sabor de la primera impresión. El trato de los empleados del front desk muy bueno. Quiero resaltar el excelente trato del mesero Lenin en conjunto con Alfredo quienes se esmeraron desde el día 1 por satisfacer todas nuestras necesidades. Solo por esos 2 empleados volveríamos a hospedarnos en el hotel nuevamente….

This Resort was an amazing experience. My partner enjoyed this property, we also got very friendly service from the entertainment team. 10/10. The only downside from us was the food quality over quantity. In addition the room smelled like wet towel and had small amounts of mold in the bathroom due to no circulation. All outdated construction that they currently were working up as we enjoyed ourselves this week.

Overall, Catalonia Royal is okay. We booked this resort based on the promise of snorkeling off the beach, which was not possible. I would not recommend going to this resort in September/ October as it is seaweed season. The beach was covered in rotting seaweed. The water was murky, stinky and overall not swimmable. The resort from a first glance looked nice, but once you get to your room, you’re hit with a damp musty smell that does not go away. The smell of wet mold is most noticeable in the casino at the other Catalonia, which explains why it’s empty most nights. Facilities seem to be dated and could use maintenance. Pools were clean but good luck finding an umbrella at chairs, because they’re either nonexistent or people have reserved their chairs at 7am with towels and personal items. Overall, I don’t understand how this resort is even ranked as 8.2/10… I would say accurately it is more like 6.8/10. Out of the resorts we’ve stayed in Punta Cana, this one ranks the lowest and would not recommend to friends or family.
