Avalon casino serves its purpose for tourists who enjoy a casual casino experience, especially guests of the Grand Bavaro Princess. As an experienced card player, I’m not sure why there are claims of “cheating”. After two sessions of blackjack I can confidently say the games are absolutely fair. Mind you, this comes from someone who is suspicious of gambling in countries that have unfamiliar gaming regulations. There were 2 blackjack tables, 5$ and 10$ USD minimums; perfect for a casual session over a drink. The tables use Continuous Shuffle Machines ‘CSM’. I’d prefer a 2-6 deck shoe as it’s more beneficial to player odds and advantage players ;) but beggars can’t be choosers. The tables have a 3 to 2 blackjack pay out and stand on soft 17’s, both variants are beneficial for the player. I can’t speak for the UTH, roulette, slots, or automated roulette as I didn’t have enough time on the games. However, tourists will enjoy this small casino on a night out if you’re at a nearby resort and don’t want to venture all the way to the HardRock. Select complimentary drinks are offered (I had a Mai Tai it was great). Dealers are professional albeit not overly friendly (which is fine, they’re just doing their job). If you’re looking for a night out at a local casino, Avalon will suit your needs, don’t expect anything extravagant, but it does the job!

Avalon Casino No Bueno. Shady dealers/employees who will give you a card when you are showing two face cards. No bueno. Who takes a card when you are showing two face cards.

Very nice casino, right there is the hotel disc, but they let people in from outside the hotel, murky environment, just give welcome drink then you have to pay.

SCAMMERS! Do not go. They cheat and scam you. We are staying at Grand Bavaro Resort and came at the casino tonight, Sunday July 2, 2023. We just came back from the casino and I got cheated. Was playing on the roulette table and when the ball landed on my number, the dealer quickly called bad roll. I was confused and when I tried to ask questions, I was just ignored. Dealer didn't speak English. Management needs to review the tape/recording of what happened and should provide an explanation. This is not right. Please do not come here. Save your hard earned money.

An exciting and fun place, we went late with friends to spend some time and play some chips, we played poker, black jack, and roulette. It has a good bar in the middle and some drinks and cocktails are on the house.

My wife and I just finished our 16th trip to Punta Cana and, as usual, we enjoyed our evening visit to the Avalon Casino. The staff at Avalon are wonderful. Casino management cares about each guest and the dealers are all very skilled. We always find our visits to Avalon to be relaxing and a great pleasure.

We wanted to visit a local casino while in Punta Cana and this appeared to be a good place to go. We went on a Monday night, around 9 PM. We were going to walk from the Occidental Punta Cana (not recommended). When we asked the resort Security Guard for directions, he called the casino and they came to pick us up free of charge. We had fun playing $5 blackjack, and stayed for a couple of hours. It was continuous shuffle (which we don't prefer but it is what it is), and the dealer was friendly and deserved the tips we gave him.
