Incredible adventures await!

If you are looking for the perfect vacation with lots of relaxing and tons of adventure then look no further! This resort has it all from poolside drinks to quick trips to great sights and fun. The food was better than any buffet in Edmonton and the drinks were just as good. I have no complaints about the service, everything was perfect.

Our Wedding

We had an awesome time the Bahia Principe Coba. We held our wedding at the Tulum part of the resort and the wedding team was great, anything and everything we needed they were happy to do for us. I would stay at this resort again. All the staff was nice expect for Brenda the manager of the Royal Golden Club. She was rude and not very helpful at all. Overall a great experience

HUGE RESORT

I just returned from trip at the grand bahia. This resort is huge and you can visit the other resorts which i thought was great. The grounds were kept very clean, hotel was perfect everytime we returned. The workers were amazingly friendly and hard workers! Food was awesome with lots to choose from. I just felt like there could be more music or entertainment going on. More of a family resort. The beach was nice but they were constantly working on the seaweed. But nothing to worry about i still [... read more] thoroughly enjoyed it. A little too far from playa del carmen and the coco bongo.

Lovely Resort

We stayed for a week in April 2015 at the Coba part of this resort in Mayan Riviera. Beautiful and very large. Units were clean. Air conditioners had trouble keeping up with the high temperatures at this time of year. Beach was beautiful but the drawback was having to take the 'train' to get there. The hotel was far from the beach. There are lots of pools. Food was good. Lots of variety.

Great Resort!Amazing time!

Very clean resort....well organized and good service! We felt welcomed from the start and staff were friendly! The food was excellent everywhere we went and available all the time...had fun with family and friends!!

Beautiful Resort but too crowded during our stay!

The rooms are lovely, the grounds are beautiful and the entertainment was great!! Unfortunately, the resort was overcrowded during our stay and was almost impossible to get chairs at the pool or beach. We ended laying our towels on the grass on more then one occasion and definitely didn't feel like 4 1/2 star quality when you can't get a lounge chair at any of the pools or the beach. We went to three different pools and no luck almost every day ..:-((... Resort should have more chairs or less pe [... read more]ople. I'm would definitely recommend this hotel aside from the chair issues!

Beautiful Resort

The grounds are immaculate, lots of areas to relax or entertained, rooms clean,loved the well stocked snack places, and surprise outdoor meals, good variety of food, restaurants were amazing. Customer service needs improving.

Fantastic Family resort

The resort is beautiful, very well maintained, friendly and helpful staff, very family friendly, food was wonderful, pools were fantastic, our grandchildren had a wonderful and fun time, we would recommend this resort.

Great holiday

The grounds and buildings were very clean, not all rooms had good air conditioning had to request to be moved due to poor A/C in our first room, the food was excellent, the service was very good, enjoyed talking with employees at the resort.

Amazing Resort

We have stayed at Bahia Principe Tulum last year and loved the fact that we could stay at one resort and use the Akemal and the Coba. So we decided to try the Coba. The rooms were large and spacious, the beach was great. The property was beautifully kept and we found the animals roaming around were comical! The food was great as were the workers. By staying here, and being able to use the other properties, we found it was like having three mini holidays. Swimming and eating and watching the ente [... read more]rtainment at the different places was always fun! We would not hesitate to go back here again!

Wonderful! Will be going back

What a great spot! Lots for the entire family to do, great food, comfortable rooms, clean and well kept rooms and top notch service. We had everything we needed in one great resort. Lots of dining options and areas for drinks so you did not feel the crowd of people. Well spread out and managed.

Not bad, but I would not go back

The pools were awesome for both adults and the kids. The beach was rocky and not cleaned at all. Beach bar was dirt. Other than that the food was good. Nice area. Don't go for "free shopping ". Things are 100 times more than the regular price. They don't really show anything at the silver factory. Also, don't get caught up and waste time with the time share people or real estate agents, unless you're interested

Fantastic Time at the Coba!!!

Had a superb week at the Gran Bahia Principe Coba like always! The staff, the food, the activities, the entertainment, the SPA, the golf, everything was off the charts! A definite place we will return to in the future i.e. Very Soon!!!!!

Second visit to Grand Bahia

Although this hotel was big it didn't take long to find our way around. There was a variety of food and restaurants available. The one downfall would be the beach and the sea weed washed ashore. There was a shortage of pool chairs and even though there were signs posted that you couldn't reserve them there was no one there to enforce this. The staff were friendly and the rooms cleaned and well maintained.

Two thumbs up!

It was our first time to Mexico and we were pleasantly surprized with the resort, the staff, the food and the amenities. Everything exceeded our expectation. I would definitely go back again! Amazing!!

Fabulous Vacation!

We recently spent a week at the Grand Bahia Principe Coba. We were a group that consisted of pre-teens, 20-somethings and 40-somethings. An incredible time was had by all. Service and food were amazing. The only downside to anything we had were the lack or dinner reservation availble yet the restaurants appeared to be half empty all the time. We only were able to get 2 of our 4 availble a al cartes. The ones we had (International & Italian) were delicious but the other 9 in our party only manage [... read more]d to get one booking. That was disappointing because we had heard really good things about some of the other restaurants however never got a chance to sample them. The buffett was very good and always fresh. my daughter loves mango and this is not an item we saw on the buffett so she asked; next thing a gentleman shows up with a plate of mango cut up for her. She was delighted! The bartenders did the best they could however there was only ever one bartender working and i think they would have certainly benefitted from having at least two serving in the swim up bars! The only other problem we had was our mini bar wasn't restocked with snacks and drinks consistently, I had to request water (after that I had lots of water but nothing else) and for some reson our faceclothes didnt get replenished with the towels. The beach not great due to a ton of seaweed; employees worked hard and did a fairly good job at collecting and bagging it but was alot of work; you can only fight mother nature so long! we spent a couple hours in the ocean but then made our way back to the pool and waterpark (which the kids loved). Our room overlooked the water park and was located right next to the lobby (building 22) and was a great location. Even though the resort is larger than i prefer I would most definitely recommend this resort especially with children.

6th Visit and we will be back

We love this hotel. The service is always excellent. The food is great. The grounds are always immaculate. This year was the first time in 6 years that there was an accumulation of seaweed on the beach. There was a grand effort to clean it up by a huge amount of workers and they did a fantastic job. It didn't bother us as we just walked over it and went in the water. Although some people may find the sandbags in the water unsightly, they are necessary to keep the beach from further erosion. If y [... read more]ou go past the sandbags, it is great fun jumping the waves! Closer to shore the water is very calm so you can just lay there and watch all the activities on the beach. Changing the Akumal resort to a luxery resort did not have any effect on our stay. There was always lots going on at Coba and Tulum at night. Another fabulous time at Bahia Principe. Can't wait to go back!!

Our first all inclusive trip

We arrived early and could not check in and were not informed of lockers that we could use to put our carry on luggage and personal items so that we could relax. It would be nice to get sample packets of sunscreen at check in. Was never informed at the desk of the room safe key and lock. Safes should be included in cost of room. Free wireless internet should be available 24/7 in all rooms, not just the lobby (this is the best way to communicate with family at home). There are not enough palapas  [... read more]and loungers around the pool area. This led to fights amongst some guests that made us feel uncomfortable. You have a rule in place about reserving and never enforce your rule. There should also be regular chairs available. The mini fridge in the room was never stocked consistently. Some days they left a chocolate bar and chips and some days they didn't and when they did leave them, it was never for two. Drinks from the pool bar always seemed very weak. Reservations for a la carte's should be done at the restaurant and not Public relations in the lobby. We wasted 2 hours and only got 2 reservations when we were entitled to 3 per week. We never bothered to go back because of the time wasted. It would be nicer for the shows to start a bit later in the evening in order to not have to rush dinner. Automatic light timers in the pool bathrooms need to remain on longer. On several occasions my wife ended up on the toilet in the dark. For the first two days our floors were filthy. Black would run off our feet in the shower first thing in the morning even though we had showered before bed. Towel, face cloth and bath mat quantities were never consistent. Some days face cloths and bath mat were never left. Soap dish was only cleaned a couple of times in two weeks. Drinking glasses in bathroom were not cleaned regularly. We did however, really enjoy our stay. Some of these suggestions could make it better for future guests.

Great resort!

We travelled as a couple and stayed in the Royal Golden section. This resort is beautiful, the staff are simply amazing and hard working! We had a very relaxing vacation. There is something for everyone. The food was also very good.

Great Resort

My family just got back from this resort ( two kids) and we had s great time. All in all it met my expectations with the exception of a few. The a la carte restaurants were basically all reserved, even though we went the first day to book them. We managed to get our three booked but they were all together at the end of our trip, they were not the restaurants that were our top picks and not the times that we wanted. Basically we were told that they have more people than seatings for the a la cart [... read more]e restaurants. The kids waterpark is great for travelling with young children, because of this there was a ton of families there! Beach access is from the other resort, so you don't have immediate access to the beach! It's about a 5 minute train ride. Having access to the other resorts is a huge plus.
