Both of the Paradisus hotels are desirable addresses, but frankly, if forced to choose, we'd opt for the Paradisus Palma Real.
Fodor's
"This luxury all-inclusive is a visual showstopper especially its central plaza by night, which sparkles under dramatic lighting."

You won't need to upgrade, but if you choose the adults-only Royal Service, you'll get to experience the smashing new contemporary Royal Club lounge and restaurant.
Rough Guide
"The top Bávaro resort – slightly more expensive but well worth it, with opulent contemporary architecture, sculpted tropical gardens, luxury suites... and access to the Cocotal golf course."
Star Service
"This palatial all-inclusive stands out among the deluxe options in Punta Cana, not least for its gracious, Moorish-inspired contemporary architecture."

"A quieter, less crowded alternative to its Iberostar sisters... the Bavaro has 598 rooms that are all inside stand-alone cottages, each with more space for kids to sleep."

Star Service
"The Punta Cana Iberostar properties are situated on a lovely white sand beach that is part of a long strand shared by a number of other all-inclusives on the eastern end of the island."

Avoid the accommodations housed in the last row of buildings on the far southern end of the property, however, as their proximity to the stables results in an occasional barnyard miasma.
Star Service
"Europeans are the main clientele, but Americans love the expansive options and newer grade of furnishings at this outlet. This is the best of the Iberostar locations in Punta Cana."

"Like its two sister resorts, this Spanish entry has panache, evidenced in its lobby, an artistic showpiece, and it's one of the better values among Punta Cana properties."
