Catalonia Bayahibe - All Inclusive

We’re celebrating our 24th anniversary, and this resort was the perfect place to do it! Back in 2022, we stayed on the Adults Only side, which is ideal if you’re looking for complete peace and quiet. By the end of that trip, though, we found ourselves gravitating toward the family side—and now we know why. This year, we chose to stay on the family side and upgraded to Privilege. Totally worth it! The vibe here is fun and relaxed. It’s refreshing to see young families, well-behaved children, and a joyful energy throughout the resort. There’s no rowdiness, no one overdoing it with drinks—just people having a genuinely good time. We even met guests from the Adults Only section who admitted they found it a bit too dull for their taste. That side might be best for those who truly want silence and solitude. But if you’re like us and appreciate a little liveliness without chaos, the family side hits the sweet spot. A big shoutout to Allen and Oscar at the pool bar—absolute legends! They kept everyone laughing with their jokes, didn’t take themselves too seriously, and even crafted fun, personalized cocktails. They truly brought people together and made the atmosphere even more memorable. All in all, this place has the right balance of relaxation and energy. Already looking forward to our next visit!

We had a great time at the resort the room was amazing the private pool is so worth it! The Beach is beautiful and I can't for get ro shout out the best bartenders in the Dominican Republic Francisco and Victor!!!

The beach here is absolutely stunning. You can walk out for miles. No seaweed or rocks. Pefect balance for sun worshiping for those that prefer shade. No vendors on the beach which is a plus in my opinion. The resort grounds are very nice. Visible maintenance going on with very little disturbance to quests. We stayed in a privileged room which was very comfortable. Room / bathroom layout could be awkward if you're not a couple. Housekeeping was excellent (1307). Staff is friendly, but yes, the resort does cater to Spanish, Italian and French speaking guests.. that didn't bother us one bit. Buffet was ok. Pizza bar was good as were the restaurants. Juice bar is a nice touch. Didn't try out the crepe snack bar, but it looked yummy. Shout out to Charlie at the Italian restaurant, he made us feel special. **Don't forget to tip for good service**

My stay at Catalonia was amazing. This was my second time at the resort and I will definitely return. All the staff are very friendly. Jose the bellman was so helpful and greeted us with the biggest smile each time we saw him. The beach is beautiful, food was delicious (the crepe stand is amazing), resort is very clean, love the pool.
