    Catalonia Royal Bavaro, Punta Cana, Dominican Republic The beach at the Catalonia Royal Bavaro is exactly what probably comes to mind when thinking about Punta Cana: white sand, clear waters, palm trees and small motor boats bobbing on the shore. Palapas provide shade, and the hotel offers lounge chairs, bar service, and sea kayaks and canoes.
