WHY IT RATES: Families can get the most out of their vacation with Barceló Bávaro Grand Resort's family-oriented entertainment, amenities and activities, including adults-only pools and supervised children's fun.-Jessica Zickefoose, TravelPulse Associate Editor


Planning the perfect family vacation that will please everyone in your crew is no easy task. But, Barceló Bávaro Grand Resort delivers everything you need for an ultimate escape. Located beachside in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic, the all-inclusive resort is the ideal destination for an all-ages getaway, with activities, entertainment, amenities, and much more, all designed with families in mind.

Activities For All

Family togetherness is important. But time apart can be good, too! Barceló Bávaro Grand Resort makes it easy for kids to feel independent away from their parents, all under the supervision of qualified professionals.

The skilled staff at the resort leads an array of daily activities-kids can learn to play golf at the 18-hole mini-golf course, indulge their Star Wars fantasies during a game of laser tag, or just hang out at the Barcy Club, with games, crafts, and much more.

Plenty of splash-filled fun can be had at the Barcy Water Park or the Pirates Island Water Park, both with slides, waterfalls and even a wave pool. For even younger kids, the resort offers a free babysitting service from 9 a.m. to 12 noon for children aged 3 to 12 years. To keep informed, parents can contact the child care providers directly by phone via a new beeper service.

While the kids play, parents can enjoy all kinds of activities on their own. Take a romantic walk on Bávaro Beach, renowned as one of the most beautiful beaches in the Dominican Republic.

Soak up the sun and serenity and take a refreshing dip of the resort's adults-only pools. Indulge in a couples' treatment at the state-of-the-art U-Spa, where rejuvenation is within reach.

Plenty Of Space For Everyone

Barceló Bávaro Grand Resort has 1991 rooms, 288 of which are spacious family rooms. Added bonus: the family suites feature two bedrooms, creating independent areas for adults and kids. Because sometimes that's exactly what you need.

Another added bonus: Barceló Bávaro Grand Resort knows that one of the greatest luxuries of an all-inclusive vacation is to arrive at the room and open the minibar, so adults and children in this room category each have their own minibars with a variety of juices, cereals and milk included.

Get a head start and book your next family vacation using the resort's "Happy Days Promotion"-where guests can receive up to 50% off, for a minimum stay of 3 nights.
