Nice resort!

This resort was huge! It was my first time to Dominican Republic but my fiancé has been many times. We both had a great time aside from getting bitten by Mosquitos everywhere the day before we left and a couple of overcast days. We went with the royal golden package and I 100% recommend spending the bit extra. We had a beautiful view from are room and could see the ocean. The snack bars sucked but the buffet and restaurants were great. Service was okay but not spectacular. We did the ziplining  [... read more]and dune buggy excursions and I would definitely do them again. All in all the trip was amazing but if you're looking for something more romantic I wouldn't recommend the resort. Lots of families and kids and the pools and beach were always extremely crowded with very limited beach chairs. Make sure to take towels down to the pool/beach first thing in the morning to claim chairs or you won't find anywhere to lounge.

Our great gettawy

fantastic ,clean,, great grounds great food and variety, the pools were very clean also had agreat party pool with whirl pool.the beach was soooo nice to walk on for miles. have recomened this place to a number of freinds,

Nice resort but way too crowded !

I would go back to this hotel, however, would choose a date where it is quieter - hard to find a lounge chair on the beach and I found that very annoying! Nice landscaping and extremely clean throughout.

Beautiful but cleanliness but disgusting

The beach was nice, the pools are fun and clean. The buffet is really impressive but the room housekeeping...disgusting! They did not clean our bathroom the whole time we were there. They dropped off towels and that was it. I spoke with 4 different people and it took 5 days for them to repair the a/c in my room. It's a shame because had they acknowledge my a/c issue and just washed my bathroom, I would have said this resort was wonderful but cleanliness is a big item for me, so I would not recom [... read more]mend.

Amazing place

Our week at Gran Bahia Principe was great. We were celebrating our 25th wedding anniversary. The room was beautiful. We were 5 minutes from the pool. The staff were so friendly everywhere from the lobby, restaurants and housekeeping. Around the pool each day was so fun. Entertainment going on each day. Was great to cool off in the pool with a drink at the pool bar. The food was excellent. Can't complain at all about that. I would totally recommend this resort to anyone looking for a very relaxin [... read more]g vacation.

Great Vacation

Bahia Principe Punta Cana was a great resort, the people were extremely friendly, large suites, walking distance to the wonderful beaches, good flight, great food except they use too much salt for me which resulted in swollen feet and legs making it uncomfortable for me. I still would go back.

Grand Bahia Principe

We had a very beautiful experience, The food was ok, the rooms and décor was very good and our overall experience was amazing.Only one staff member looked kind of mad but our Airport experience going out of Punta Cana was horable. They hassle us even for one pound overweight. Thank you very much. Chandra.

Below expectation

-Maybe it's just our bad luck, but 6 out of 7 days, the beach is full of seaweeds. and because of that the Pools are always full of people. -Beach is not as nice as in Cuba and the water is too deep for swimming. -Except for the Reception desk, service staff does not speak English. -Food is just so so. This is my first time to Dom Rep., and many peoples told me to expect better food than Cuba, but to me it's about the same level as in Cuba, even with a-la-carte restaurants. Overall, it's not too [... read more] bad, it's just below my expectation. -Entertainment is not as good as 4 star or 5 star resorts in Cuba.

Bahai Principe Punta Cana

We were two families with children and found the resort to be: excellent; super clean; attention to detail; excellent food; friendly and helpful staff; immaculate gardens; great pools and overall great experience.

Great family resort

Second time at this resort had a great time the nightly entertainment is great the food could be better I recommend a LA carte good customer service was never bored entertainment waa the best food the worst

Wonderful resort

The grounds, restaurants, and rooms were very good! Amazing beach and staff all too willing to help. This was our second time at this complex, and we can't wait to go again. Would recommend this resort to friends and family. It's a amazing value, and overall very good resort.

Amazing!!

Super nice resort for vacation ! It wasn't t our first time at Bahia principe. The food was excellent with huge variety at the buffet , to please every taste. Royal service at the French restaurant !Very nice shows. Friendly personnel . All the resort is very well maintained.

Amazing resort!!!!

Hotel: 5/5 Beach: 5/5 Rooms: 4/5 Service: 5/5 Weather: 5/5 Food: 5/5 Entertainment: 5/5 Value: 4/5 First time to the Dominican. It was absolutely wonderful. From just sitting on the beach to the many different excursions. Will definitely be going back!

Awesome Resort

Highly recommend this resort. Excellent service and friendly staff. They made you feel like a VIP person. Very clean and beautiful foliage. Sandy beaches. Array of different foods and lots to drink. Its an excellent vacation resort.

Amazing resort, I would certainly visit again.

Grounds were well kept, food was great just a bit too salty for me but overhall you had a lot to choose from. The fruits were the absolute best especially the mangoes and papaya. Breakfast was awesome I ate omlette almost every day.

Never go back

Place as too large. infested by mosquitoes. Maid staff kept the doors to your rooms open letting bugs in and not spraying after. You had to take a tram to the beach. The clinic was good. Dr on site. But wouldn't speak to you until there was an assurance the cash would be there first.. Understandable... We are not going back

Great resort

The grounds are very well kept as are the pools and beach areas. The buffet food is excellent although the a la cartes are hit or miss. The rooms are just ok; we had a white bedspread in our room and when the sun shines in you can see all the stains on them. I would not recommend a first floor room and if you have a problem the language barrier makes it difficult to communicate any issues. It is a very large resort so you have to take a tram to and from everywhere or walk a lot. Overall a great  [... read more]resort; we have stayed twice. The only thing to add is you have to be up around 6:00 am if you want to get a pool or beach chair as they allow people to hog chairs.

First Family Vacation South

This was our first family vacation south and it definitely will not be our last. Everything was fantastic from the moment we stepped off the plane. The people at the resort were so warm and welcoming, always smiling, always happy. Our room was 1270 (Royal Golden) and we were located steps from the main beach pool and the beach itself. The room was very spacious and our balcony overlooked the pool area and beach. Mini bar was always stocked for us, fresh towels in the bathroom, chocolate treat b [... read more]edside before we turned in for the evenings, robes and slippers...lovely maid service. The beach was beautiful and the main pool was always hopping with both kids and adults. So relaxing to just go and lay by the poolside and not have to think about a thing. Service and drinks were always on the go by the pool and the drinks were delicious. The food was never ending at the main buffet. From breakfast to dinner and beyond there was always something available. The desserts were to die for and service always came with a smile. In the evenings we would wander to the main bar in the lobby for drinks and some conversation. Met a lot of great people there from Colorado to New York to here at home in Canada. Every evening there was a show being preformed and the Michael Jackson one rocked them all. Overall had a fantastic experience!! Since we had no set expectations before we left for vacation we arrived with an open mind and let everything soak in for us and it was an adventure like no other.

Great resort

Travelled with a group to this resort April 2014 for our wedding. The resort is massive but our agent from trip central made sure we all had rooms located very close together. The wedding coordinator was great! The amount of things that are included in the free wedding package was defiantly a bonus. There is a very nice water park, our daughter is two and she enjoyed it, would be a good spot for kids up to about age 10! Food was amazing, nobody in our group went hungry.. Actually for the most pa [... read more]rt I think everyone put on a little bit of weight. Staff all over the resort were very friendly! We will defiantly return to this resort in the future.

Fun and Relax with a great view

It was an amazing resort. my only advice is, make the lower section of the entertainment hall a non smoking section. even though smoking is legal, there are children sitting in those areas during the nightly entertainment and also people who are non smokers and those allergic to smoke. there was a guest who was throwing her ashes at this little girl sitting on the walkway and kids were coughing from people smoking behind them. just a courtesy to guests really. there are non smoking section in th [... read more]e lobby bar, perhaps designating a non smoking section in the stage area would help for an evening of entertainment. above all else, I will visit again because the staff were amazing, friendly and always smiling.
