Catalonia Royal La Romana is a 117-room, adults-only, all-inclusive resort on Playa Dominicus in Bayahibe’s Dominicus area.

The resort runs on an all-inclusive plan across seven restaurants and three bars, with two pools and a beachfront position on Playa Dominicus. Room choices span Superior and Romance Deluxe categories, including swim-up versions, plus Privileged rooms, suites and a two-level suite with private pool.
This is a calm, adult-paced resort where the beach and the two pools set the rhythm of the day. The scale is small at 117 rooms, which keeps the grounds from feeling crowded. The Alegría Spa and fitness center are shared with Catalonia Bayahibe, so those facilities serve a wider audience than this property alone. The all-inclusive plan handles the practical side of the stay well, and that value is a real part of the appeal.
The stay runs on an all-inclusive meal plan, and breakfast is served in the international buffet restaurant. Guests have access to Catalonia Bayahibe facilities and golf. On site, the Alegría Spa and fitness center are shared with Catalonia Bayahibe, and tennis, pickleball and fitness classes are available.
Accommodation totals 117 rooms. Named categories include Superior Room, Superior Swim Up, Romance Deluxe and Romance Deluxe Swim Up, alongside Privileged rooms, suites and a two-level suite with private pool.
Superior and Romance Deluxe categories each come in standard and Swim Up versions, giving four core room choices. Named options also include Privileged rooms, suites and a two-level suite with private pool. Compare the specific details of each category when booking, since layouts and features vary.
The resort’s suite categories include Privileged rooms, suites and a two-level suite with private pool. For travelers weighing an upgrade over a standard Superior or Romance Deluxe room, these are the categories to compare side by side.
Seven restaurants, three bars and two pools anchor the facilities, along with the Alegría Spa, a shared fitness center, tennis, pickleball and fitness classes. The property sits directly on Playa Dominicus.
Dining spans seven restaurants, including Siwichi, Tao Cat, Thalassa and Toscana. Breakfast is served in the international buffet restaurant. Three bars handle drinks across the property. The all-inclusive meal plan sits behind the entire dining setup, so the daily question is which venue to pick rather than where to go off site.
Two pools serve the resort, and Playa Dominicus sits directly at the beachfront property. The Alegría Spa and fitness center are shared with Catalonia Bayahibe. Active options include tennis, pickleball and fitness classes. Guests also have access to Catalonia Bayahibe facilities and golf, which widens the recreation range beyond what the 117-room property holds on its own.
