I have never been more disappointed than I was when I booked La Catalonia Royal Bavaro Adults only, all inclusive resort. Every single employee, was miserable, every meal was less than desirable Including the tres golpes, which I was anticipating on enjoying at an all inclusive in Dominican Republic. JUST BAD! Every drink simply made with the cheapest of ingredients.. I booked the duplex with the private pool,which was FAR FROM CHEAP! upon arrival the pool looked dirty but it was late and I assumed it was just darkness casting a shadow over the pool. however at 7 am the next morning the pool was indeed FILTHY, there was algae everywhere, I will include photos/videos in other reviews. I took a video clearing the algae with my hand off of the pool light inside the pool, Cockroaches shared the room with us and not the big ones that sometimes you cant help if they come in from the outdoors, Im talking about roaches from lack of cleanliness. we also had a hot tub in our room, the corner wall of the hot tub from top to bottom was filled with spider webs or rather cobb webs, webs that have been abandoned by the spider and just left to catch dust. The toilets did not flush and ran all night the 7 days we were there. the "Food Truck" Never had chicken wings, and served undercooked burgers and a chicken salad sandwich that literally had 2 tiny grilled pcs of chicken. i fed it to the many stray dogs on the dirty and unkept beach and even they turned their nose up
the chicken bread.
