I had a decent stay at Iberostar Selection Bavaro Suites, enjoying the beautiful beach and a good variety of food. though there were several points of concern. The room setup left something to be desired, particularly with the air conditioning issues I faced. and I was disappointed with the service's language barrier. Overall, the hotel had potential, but it could greatly improve in certain areas.

I recently enjoyed a week-long stay at Iberostar Selection Bavaro Suites, where the beach location was fantastic and the dining options were impressive. However, I faced some significant issues with my room assignment and service that dampened my experience. The entertainment at night was quite loud and not to my liking, which also affected my overall impression of the hotel.

Rooms
6.0
I booked a Junior Suite with pool access but ended up with two double beds instead of a queen. While they offered to put the beds together, I felt it was not what I had paid for. The room had some maintenance issues as well, including a problematic air conditioner and the presence of bugs.
Service
5.0
The service varied; while some staff were friendly, I found the staff at the reception and reservation desk to be quite unhelpful regarding my reservation issues. I expected better responsiveness and focus on hospitality instead of upselling time-shares.

The dining options were a highlight! I loved the diverse menu offerings and the food quality was excellent, especially at the buffet. But I would recommend skipping the Mexican restaurant, as I found the buffet to be far superior.
