I don't understand the 5 star reviews and in reality this hotel deserves a 3.5 instead of a 4. Yes, the beach and grounds are beautiful. However, the service is completely average and inconsistent. Yes, the food is plentiful, but average for the most part (the Mexican and Japanese restaurants were good, as was the steakhouse). Our AC was weak... More

My husband and I just returned from our visit at Ambar and we were thoroughly impressed with the Ambar resort. After reading all of the forums about Punta Cana and this resort specifically, we felt really ready to get the most out of our experience. Though we heard it was a large resort, we really didn't understand the magnitude until... More

I did a lot of research prior to picking this resort, so I didn't have many surprises. This was our 4th All Inclusive, but first trip to the Dominican, so I did have something to compare it to. THE AIRPORT: The bag guys are pretty aggressive in trying to carry your bags, but be assertive and tell them you have... More

My husband and I just came back from our week long trip at the Ambar hotel. We had a fantastic time, and it was just what we were looking for. For reference, we're ages 27 and 30 respectively. Room: We had room 62-101 which is a corner suite. EXTREMELY spacious and equidistant from the pool and the main lobby where... More

This is my 2nd time at Bahia Principe Ambar. The hotel, staff, beach and all amenities are exceptional. Two staff members that really stood out to me were Maurice who was my butler and did an exceptional job taking care of me. And Yessenia who was the supervisor of the waiters. These individuals really made an impact on my vacation... More

A group of 10 of us visited the Ambar resort from May 7th through May 16th. We had such a relaxing and fun time! We did have a few ups and downs, but for the most part, the trip was outstanding! I had the trip booked for about 7 months. I did extensive research of the Ambar resort before choosing... More

My husband, daughter and I enjoyed my 50th birthday at the Ambar May 12-17,2013. We enjoyed every minute we were there. The resort is massive. We were dropped off at the Bavaro lobby and asked to be taken to the Ambar. We were there within minutes. We checked in about 2 p.m. Our room wasn't ready so we had lunch... More

My boyfriend and I are seasoned travelers, for both business and pleasure. We have traveled extensively throughout America, Europe, South America, and Asia. We stared using Trip Advisor this year, and have found most of the reviews spot on and really helpful. That's why I was surprised by what we found on our trip to The Dominican Republic at a... More

My husband and I chose Ambar for our first visit to Punta Cana, as well as our first all inclusive. We have travelled to other Caribbean islands, as well as Bermuda, Puerto Rico and Hawaii. We really didnt know what to expect, but the Punta Cana forum and these reviews helped us prepare. We did request a 3rd floor room... More
