Barcelo Bavaro Beach - Adults Only

Set right on Bávaro Beach in Punta Cana, Barceló Bávaro Beach Adults Only is a five-star base for golfers who want proper resort comfort with the sea on your doorstep. The beach regularly features on "best beaches" round-ups and, whichever list you believe, it's an easy place to switch off after a round.

The hotel is part of the wider Barceló Bávaro Grand Resort, so you're not limited to one footprint. You've got access to facilities across Barceló Bávaro Palace plus the Premium Level and Family Club areas, handy if your group wants more choice for dining, bars or evening entertainment.

Golf-wise, The Lakes Barceló sits on site. It's a P.B. Dye redesign (2010) and it feels like it, with shaping, angles and plenty of visual intimidation if you get lazy off the tee. The routing works through mangrove landscape, so you get that lush Caribbean feel while still being asked to plot your way around.

When you're not playing, the resort brings the full holiday brief, from beach time and pools to shows, casino and plenty of sports if the group has non-golfers in tow. It's an all-inclusive golf break that lets you focus entirely on your game and downtime without worrying about the details.

Who is this for?

Couples, mates' trips and golf societies who want an adults-only, all-inclusive Punta Cana base with on-site golf and plenty to do off the course.

Who is it best for?

Golfers who like resort convenience, beach downtime and a course that asks you to think your way round rather than just hit driver all day.

The Lake

The superb golf course named ‘The Lake’ was designed by the renowned architect P.B. Dye, who took great care in the construction by personally supervising and overseeing the whole process until it’s opening in December 2010. The results are extraordinary! It paves its way through a lush mangrove forest and is peppered with 122 strategically placed bunkers and 25 inland lakes. The Lake is a true test golf where keeping the ball straight is paramount to shooting a low score.

Measuring 6,655 yards from the championship tees The Lake is certainly no push-over, however the 18-hole Par 72 track was designed to suit all levels of play as the five different sets of tees mean that the yardage can be dropped to 4,688 depending on preference.

The hotel offers free transport from your hotel room directly to the course, equipment storage and cleaning, golf club rental, food and drink service on the course as well as many other services available at your request.

Accommodation at Barcelo Bavaro Beach - Adults Only

The resort has 589 rooms, with around 80% facing the sea, so a lot of guests wake up to proper Caribbean views. Room categories run from Standard Superior through to the Master Suite Ocean Front Club Premium, which adds serious space plus a separate lounge area, two fully fitted bathrooms and a private Jacuzzi. It's a strong option if you're travelling as a couple and want to make it feel like a treat, or if you simply want more room to spread out between rounds.

Every room is designed with space and comfort in mind, giving you a proper base to return to after a day on the course or by the pool. The seafront positioning means you're never far from the sound of the waves, and the turquoise water and white sand make for a Caribbean experience that feels special from the moment you arrive.

Food and drink is straightforward with three restaurants and two bars. La Brisa is the headline for location, right by the sea, which is exactly where you want to be for a long lunch or an easy dinner when you've finished on the course. The Bohio Chill Out Bar by the pool is a solid post-round stop, especially if your group is doing the classic "quick shower then cocktail" routine. With all-inclusive in place, you can relax into the holiday without counting every bill, making it easy to explore different flavours and try local dishes throughout your stay.

For recovery, U-Spa is the go-to. You've got the basics covered, sauna, steam room, Vichy shower and hydrotherapy circuit, plus treatments that make sense after a golf-heavy schedule. It's a flagship spa experience for the resort, built around the idea of well-being, health and beauty, and designed to help you genuinely relax between rounds.

Add in the wider resort facilities, a 24-hour casino, nightclub and theatre, plus a full range of sporting activities including an 18-hole miniature golf course, and you've got enough going on to keep non-golfers happy too, which is often the difference between a good trip and a great one.
