About JOIA Bavaro by Iberostar - Adults Only All Inclusive Resort
JOIA Bavaro by Iberostar sits on Carretera Arena Gorda in Punta Cana and is built around one idea: a holiday for adults only. It is an all-inclusive, five-star resort, and the 9.3 average from 366 guest reviews suggests the formula works. The setting is beachfront, with a private beach area where sun loungers, beach chairs and sun umbrellas are set out for lazy, salt-air afternoons. When you want more movement, water sport facilities are on site.
Days here can be as slow or as active as you like. There is a swimming pool and an outdoor pool for morning laps or a long float before lunch, plus a hot tub for winding down. The spa and wellness center brings massage services, a sauna and fitness and spa locker rooms. On the more energetic side, you will find a fitness center, yoga classes, other fitness classes, and a tennis court with tennis equipment. The garden gives the property a calmer, greener backdrop between activities.
Evenings follow the same relaxed rhythm. A restaurant, a bar and a snack bar cover the day's appetites, and themed dinner nights add some variety to the week. Wine and champagne are part of the picture, and special diet menus are available on request. After dark, an entertainment team runs evening entertainment, so a sunset drink can easily turn into a full night out without leaving the resort. If you would rather stay in, room service is available through a mobile app, and breakfast can be served in your room.
The suites are the other draw. Many room types add butler service, and the Grand Star service covers personalized check-in and check-out, sparkling wine, packing and unpacking, breakfast in bed, a nightly ironing service and transport around the complex. A concierge, a 24-hour front desk, currency exchange, free WiFi and free parking take care of the practical side. Airport shuttle service is available for an additional charge, and the resort has wheelchair-accessible facilities and accessible suites. Guests must be 18 or older.
