Hotel Whala!bávaro - All Inclusive Reviews

The hotel does not look like the pictures. When I got yo my room, on the first night my room smelled of urine, as if person who was belied me peed and the hotel doesn’t clean it. It was unbearable, I had to ask reception to come and sort it out because I wasnt going to be able to sleep with that smell. The housekeeper came and she swiped the floor and it was much better. The toilet handle was broken despite the water flushing. The room smelled out humidity. Not very sure of they changed the sheets needles I got there or even after. The food was all artificial food, nothing organic. All drinks were from those sachets. Even the sprite tasted different :/ On NYE the food was much better, there were good choices, but still artificial. Overall, it wasn’t that bad, a lot of people seemed to be okay with it. I am very picky so I notice everything.

The experience was good, the roof top restaurant had good food and service. The effiency of service at the beach bar needs improving. The property is lovely and maintenence is good.

This hotel put an end to my travels in the Dominican Republic. Hotel which appears very pretty but is far from being so. We changed rooms 3 times in just 5 nights, you can imagine the horror. The rooms are in poor condition, the furniture is dated and deteriorated and their bathrooms are poorly maintained and full of humidity, rust on the shower heads and mold in every corner of the room. Tap water is undrinkable due to the quantity of salt present, it is therefore impossible to brush your teeth and even washing remains complicated because the smell is very unpleasant. Each of these 3 economic or superior rooms had problems with flushing the toilet (clogged every time) and the irregular drainage of the toilets was a disaster! . The device is defective, it was incessant and impossible to get to the WC in the rooms. The last evening was obviously too much! We had a flood throughout the room, a pipe burst, the floor was soaked and our suitcases were submerged by water. I am still in shock from this disastrous episode. However, the hotel is well located next to Corales beach and close to many restaurants and shops. However, I strongly advise against it, the all-inclusive formula allows you to make great savings but for insufficient service and mediocre quality. It's not worth it for the excessive price, you might as well invest in a premium resort, more expensive but much more profitable.

The bathroom was in a pitiful state. The cleaning was poorly done on this part as well. We were disgusted at the idea of ​​washing there. The ceiling was leaking... so wet feet at night when going to the toilet because of a puddle of water on the floor. Reception staff not helpful and reluctant to help with anything. On the other hand, the rest of the staff are adorable. The common places are pretty and pleasant. (Treadmill not functional in the gym) The location, a stone's throw from the sea, is also very nice. The magnificent beach.
