We stayed here in March for 10 nights. What a lovely hotel. 99% of the staff were absolutely excellent, particularly the entertainment staff, who work hard to ensure you are having a good time, but without being pushy. Also the buffet staff were great and went out of their way to find gluten free options for two of our children.... More

We just returned from a week at Gran Bahia Principe and had a wonderful time! We decided to stay in the Coba section as we traveled with our 9-month old son. We liked that section very much - it had the most number of pools as well as the largest buffet and is where many of the a la carte... More

Where do I start? One year ago, for my husband's birthday, I took him on a very expensive trip to Bahia Principe, Dominican Republic. We stayed at Ambar Resort and it was beyond our expectations with respect to service, luxury and professional staff. While we were there, we attended a session on Privilege membership, which we bought. This year, for... More

This resort is actually 3 resorts in one! You have access to all of the amenities at all 3 resorts including pools, buffets, and all of the a la carte restaurants. Convenient shuttles all over the resort to get around easily! We had a great time exploring the sprawling resorts. The beach was very nice with great snorkelling right in... More
