 Iberostar Bavaro Resort
All-Suites Hotel for Everyone!

Iberostar Bavaro Resort in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic.  The resort is set on Bavaro Beach with white silk sand and dreamy turquoise Sea.  Iberostar Bavaro All-Suites Resort offers all the facilities of the entire Iberostar complex including 10 great restaurants. NOTE: Limited number of guaranteed a la carte dinners (dependent on length of stay); reservations required. Simply said, you can’t go wrong with this hotel. The imagination runs wild in this incredible hotel-check out the “DC-6” disco created from a DC-6 airplane! The cockpit serves as the DJ booth and the wings serve as the bar counters! There is also a huge skeleton of a whale carved from wood, a wall which transforms into a waterfall, an old Chevy car – all part of the visual delights you’ll see! You’ll be awed by Iberostar’s flair for design—the art, the sculptures, the ambiance and appealing décor in all restaurants. Quality and magnitude are the signature of Iberostar. Iberostar is a magical place for children—large lagoon pools, activities and Kids Club. And all of this is set on the beautiful silky white sand and amazing turquoise waters of Bavaro Beach. You just can’t go wrong with this property Trust Iberostar . . . you will be reluctant to leave!

The Iberostar Bavaro shines.  On our visit we clearly noticed a brilliant maturity that has enveloped this fine property. The artwork, iron work in the chandeliers and sculptures, the fine woods, the spectacular polished marble, the huge lagoon pools, the warmth and smiles of the Dominican staff, along with the hotel being situated on one of the most breathtaking white sand beaches in Punta Cana make one’s vacation at this property truly memorable.  This resort is a winner!

Hassle-Free Diving

The  Diving Center is right on the beach of your Iberostar Hotel.  No overland transportation is needed.   The Iberostar properties on Cozumel and Playa Paraiso also have private jetties for the Iberostar dive boats.

The diving equipment can be rinsed, dried and stored safely at the dive center, so you won't have to drag it to your room after every dive.  The dive center can also provide you with state-of-the-art rental equipment, should you prefer to travel light.

All of the Diving and snorkeling excursions, to the most fascinating sites in the area, leave from the hotel.   On these excursions your needs are catered to with the same high quality service you find everywhere else in the Iberostar Hotels, guaranteed!

Fun and Exciting Dives

During your dive trip, you expect every dive to be fun and exciting.  Since there are many levels of recreational divers, not everyone shares the same definition of what fun and exciting means.  The professional staff is trained to listen to what you, as a diver, expect to see and then take you there.

Offered are a wide variety of diving activities, with courses ranging from FREE SCUBA TRY-OUTS in the pool to Professional Dive Instructor courses.  Even the most demanding divers will find their thrill at Iberostar and Dressel Divers with underwater photography, wreck diving, night dives, cavern diving, nitrox and more.

Safe Diving

Iberostar safety standards exceed those set forth by the USCG and RSTC.  The boats are designed to allow safe and comfortable water entries and exits.  As your dive guides are professional Open Water Scuba Diving Instructors, they are extensively trained to watch over your comfort and safety at all times.

Happy Non-Diving Family and Friends

Very often your non-diving companions feel neglected while you are enjoying the underwater marvels.   NOT SO in IBEROSTAR HOTELS.  With Iberostar, your loved-ones will be just as excited as you are:

  • All imaginable facilities and amenities are at your disposal: spa, gym, Jacuzzi, steam room, beauty salon, etc.

  • Other sports are available: snorkeling, fishing, sailing, kayaking, wind-surfing, parasailing, water-skiing, tennis, aerobics, golf nearby, bicycling, shooting, team-sports and lots more.

  • Entertainment includes: spectacular shows at night, disco, mini-club for children, shopping malls nearby.
