La Altagracia Cheap Holidays

We just got back from a week at this Barcelo, and ultimately upgraded our stay mid week to the premium package so have opinions on two different types of stays. Pro: the family rooms are great for traveling with young kids. It was truly two separate bedrooms with a small entry area and separate bathroom. I didn’t love that the bathroom door was a heavy piece of glass that you had to slide, but otherwise this room worked well. It was right next to the waterpark area for kids, which I appreciated the hours of- 10am to 6pm, so it was always quiet during bedtime and early morning. The resort itself is not overly huge and is very walkable. I found the majority of staff to be very friendly and the people working at the restaurants especially so. The food was pretty good, we were only able to eat at one actual restaurant (steakhouse) and that was very nice. The buffet was decent, although I do wish the hours were a bit earlier for families (dinner is not until 6:30). You can eat at the sports bar buffet before the main buffet opens, but it’s not many options. They had boats available to use for free and the beach is very beautiful. My husband, daughter and I all get very sick on the trip and we were careful about drinking the water so I don’t know if it was from the ice. When we called room service from the original room at 6am to try and get more milk for our inconsolable toddler, they would not bring us anything until 8 AM.

Well kept property, lots of activities to enjoy, lots of restaurants, friendly staff Food was mediocre

Very well maintained property. Felt safe everywhere we went. Beach was beautiful, pool was very clean.

I love the beach—it’s so close to the resort. The staff is wonderful; everyone is so nice and helpful, and they make you feel truly special. The food was amazing! I will definitely be coming back to this place again!

The bed was amazing and the staff were so helpful

The food was good. Room was nice with a jetted tub. Property was nice and well kept. The beach and water had a lot of seaweed but they cleared it each morning off the beach. Didn’t feel like going in the water though, which was disappointing. Used the pool instead and it was nice. It was too far to walk anywhere off the resort by road.

Great location, close to the airport and right across Punta Cana Village. Good food, very clean and nice staff. Perfect business hotel in quiet area. Away from busy tourist crowds.
