Bávaro Beach, home to the adults-only all-inclusive Barcelo Bávaro Beach Resort, is a recipient of TripAdvisor’s 2014 Travelers’ Choice award. The award, which is based on reader-generated travel advice from the world’s largest travel website, ranked Bávaro Beach as one of the top 10 beaches in the Caribbean.

The recognition follows an impressive 2013 award season in which Barceló Bávaro Beach Resort received the TripAdvior Certificate of Excellence. Several of the brand’s Mexico resorts were also bestowed TripAdvisor’s 2013 Certificate of Excellence, including all five resorts at the Barceló Maya Beach Resort complex, the brand new Barceló Grand Faro Los Cabos, Barceló Puerto Vallarta and Barceló Karmina Palace Deluxe in Colima, Mexico.

“We are thrilled that Bávaro Beach is the recipient of this prestigious industry award,” said Giovanni Sbrogio, sales director of Barceló Bávaro Beach Resort. “The award is a great honor and we are proud to be located on one of the best beaches in the Caribbean.”

Barceló Bávaro Beach is a new adults-only, all-inclusive resort that features 589 rooms, an adults-only pool and theater. In addition to the resort’s three restaurants and two bars, guests at this property have reciprocal access to most of the services and facilities of Barceló Bávaro Palace Deluxe such as a new state-of-the-art spa and fitness center; a convention center that can accommodate groups of up to 5,000 people; an 18-hole golf course; and a wide array of entertainment options, including a casino. Because of its beachfront location, more than 80 percent of the rooms are beachfront.
