The Bahia Principe Escape was a fantastic resort. The rooms we current, very clean and comfortable. The grounds beautiful and well maintained. The beach is not great if you like to swim but if you like to snorkel its ideal. The food was fantastic. Lots of protein of different varieties. The hostess and serving staff were very organized and friendly. The pool bar staff wonderful! The day and evening entertainment crew were outstanding! They kept us active and entertained.

All in all we had a nice time at the Bahia Escape. The Good- -The resort was fairly quiet ( but much busier on the weekends.) We wanted a quiet vacation so that suited us fine. The beach is small but deep enough to swim without being too deep. - The snorkeling off the beach was actually really good. We saw an octopus, spiny lobsters, a spotted eagle ray, a flounder, a porcupine fish, puffer fish , a golden spotted eel and lots of colourful reef fish. -Food was good. I am a pescatarian that doesn’t eat bread, pasta or rice either so usually I struggle with food at all inclusives. The chefs at the à la cartes were great. Shout out to the Brazilian restaurant chef who created me a salmon dish that wasn’t even on the menu and it was the best salmon I’ve ever had and I’m from the east coast of Canada and salmon is a staple of my diet ! -The service from the wait staff was really great. The Bad - Our oceanfront room was lovely but we were on the 6th floor and elevator was broken more than it was working. In fact the last 3 days of our vacation it didn’t work at all. Kept being told it was being worked on but didn’t see anyone working on it. - Some of the advertised room category amenities weren’t included. No bath robes, only got turn down service 3 out of 7 nights. Had to ask for mini bar to be restocked and the people restocking took the tips we were leaving for the housekeeping staff. Thank goodness we realized that before the end of our trip so we could tip her but spent $90 usd in tips leaving a note just asking for water….. -Because of the hurricane last year not all the advertised restaurants are open. Our room category stated we had 7 à la cartes a week and were only able to use 4 because they were full before we were even able to book them. Unfortunate, since this was the reason we chose and paid for the best room offered at the resort. Was not impressed at the lack of support we received when using the Bahia app to address our concerns. Because of this we will most likely not return to this resort.

Great resort, we would recommend to everyone. Stayed on the adult side, family side opening soon after renovations due to the hurricane. Great pools and a couple of small beaches. Excellent room with ocean view. Grounds were well maintained. Staff were very friendly, polite and helpful. No issue with service. Entertainment staff were fun. A la carte were good. Buffet food was very good. A 5 star from us.

We stayed at this hotel 5 times. We keep coming back because it feels like home. All the staffs are helpful and will go out of their way to get you what you want. They genuinely want to make your stay memorable, fun, happy and stress free! We love the size of the rooms, very spacious. We normally stay over the family side because we find it more entertaining. The luxury side is for those looking for peace and quiet. We can’t wait until the other side is open. It’s a huge resort. Lots of restaurants options once the family size is open.

We booked our trip to Bahia Principe, Montego Bay,Jamaica through TripAdvisor, and the booking process itself was smooth. We found the resort, via internet, called directly, and had everything confirmed within an hour through Jairus Maus. On July 14, We arrived at the hotel around 2:30 p.m. after an hour-plus drive from the airport, but unfortunately our room wasn’t ready until after 4:30 p.m. The first two days at the resort were enjoyable. Before leaving Canada, I had emailed my travel agent Jairus regarding excursions and transportation but never received any information or reply in that regards . We decided to find this info from the hotel once we reach there. Rather than waste more time, I booked our excursions through the hotel reception after checking in. We spent our second day relaxing and exploring the resort. On our third day, we went to the Dunn’s River Falls excursion, which included climbing the falls, zip-lining over them, and snorkeling. The excursion itself was fantastic. The tour organizers had arranged lunch for us at a nearby village restaurant after snorkeling and had even taken our meal orders that morning. Unfortunately, this is where our vacation took a terrible turn. We arrived at the restaurant Chukka Island Village outpost around 3:30 p.m. after not eating all day. The staff were rude and inattentive. We were ignored for quite some time, weren’t even offered water, and had to ask for it ourselves after our jerk chicken was served. When they finally brought it, they simply slid the glasses onto the table without saying a word. The service was extremely disappointing. After lunch, at 0345 pm, we were driven back to the hotel, arriving about 30–45 minutes later. Almost immediately, my husband began running to the bathroom repeatedly and started shaking. As a nurse, I became very concerned. I called reception asking if they had Tylenol. They initially offered to send a nurse, but I explained that I was a nurse myself and only needed medication. They directed me to the gift shop, where I paid US$30 for a bottle of 24 Tylenol tablets, along with an overpriced package of Pepto-Bismol. Later that night, I also became ill. For the next five days, both of us suffered from constant diarrhea and stomach illness unable to hold anything down. Our vacation was completely ruined. We could barely eat anything—even a piece of toast would pass through us almost immediately. Every day we hoped we would recover enough to enjoy at least part of our trip, but we never did. Even on the morning we were leaving for the airport, my husband attempted to eat something light before our flight and had to run straight to the bathroom afterward. Throughout our stay, we repeatedly asked for fresh lemon to have with tea, hoping it would help settle our stomachs. Every restaurant told us they didn’t have any. It was surprising that a five-star resort couldn’t provide something as basic as fresh lemon. What was most disappointing was the lack of follow-up from the resort. I reported what had happened to the excursion booking department, guest services, and reception. I explained that I wasn’t only concerned about us—I wanted to make sure this didn’t happen to other guests if the meal from the excursion restaurant was the cause. Unfortunately, no one ever contacted us, checked on our condition, or followed up in any way. The resort itself is beautiful, and the facilities were great. However, we were unable to enjoy any of it because we spent almost our entire vacation sick. The only food we ate outside the resort was the lunch provided as part of the excursion that the hotel arranged. If you’re planning to stay at Bahia Principe Jamaica and book excursions through the hotel, I would encourage you to be cautious about the meals provided during those excursions. Our experience completely overshadowed what should have been a wonderful vacation.

this was a beautiful resort except for the beach part. not a lot off sand here ,small and low water.I really go to those places for the beach part.No non alcholic beer was another thing .The pic you are addvertising for the beach is false.Iwas not expecting what i saw.

1 restaurant and the buffet was open. After 1030 only room service which took over an hour especially after a night of drinking. Plenty cockroaches. Last call at the bar is 1am. The food at the buffet was good.

Hotel was amazing. Very clean, staff super friendly, food was amazing at every restaurant that we visited. Hoped for a little more entertainment in the day but the vibes was really good. Lots of space as well to chill alone

Bahia Principe was stunning! All the staff were fantastic! They had activities all day long near the main pool, including a foam party open till 11pm on Sunday nights. Everything was super clean, our room was huge, gorgeous and cleaned up to 3 times a day which was super amazing!!! The beach is really small and rocky but good for snorkeling and still nice to sun tan. The food at every restaurant including the beach restaurant for lunch and Jasmine buffet was super delicious and they had so many different options!

Usually a great resort but due to hurricane, staff has completely changed. Beach on adult side is non existent and very rocky. Room service menu is very limited. Only 1 elevator working the entire stay.

Just returned from spending a wonderful week here. Not a big fan of large tower style resorts but this one pleasantly surprised us. Staff was amazing and treated our adult special needs son with respect and involved him in all sorts of activities. Food was excellent with lots to choose from. We are not big beach people so the smaller beaches did not effect us. Lots of chairs and loungers around the pools so never a problem getting a spot.

Only half resort was open, second half was under restoration. Room were good. It seemed like they cleaned it several times a day which was very unusual but great. Didn't use mini fridge often, but each time it was refilled shortly after. Beaches were not great for swimming without shoes, but we were snorkeling and it was perfect for that. Food was very good in buffet and amazing in all restaurants for reservations (only 3 were open at the time). There were a lot of fun activities during the day and in the evening. Very helpful and pleasant staff and Sunwing rep (Vincent)on site. Pros: room, service, food, snorkeling, activities. Cons: privilege club reps first day, beach.

The guest experience was Excellent. We had a wonderful time. Food was great , all services were on point. My wife forgot her phone in the tour bus, the hotel tracked it down by looking at all the cameras and realized it was in the bus. That was very impressive. All around was an Amazing experience. Highly recommended to anyone going to Jamaica ?? ♥️

This was a quick 5 day vacation to start our 25 year anniversary celebrations. Room was ready at 3pm as stated when we booked. The resort had just reopened from hurricane damage 5 days before we arrived. There are still some hiccups to work out but that being said it is a beautiful resort with very friendly helpful staff. Lamar and crazy leg are the men to see for beach volleyball twice a day. They are quite the entertainers. Rooms are very large and clean. This was only our 2nd time at a resort as we usually book air B&Bs and do our own vacation. But it was quite nice to just sit back relax and just take it all in. I think if I was to do an all inclusive again this resort would probably be top of my choices.

We had a great week at the Runaway Bay Bahia Principe Resort. The accommodations were very clean, bright and roomie. The meals were delicious and there was lots of variety. We loved it - can’t say enough about the great time we had!

Love love love this resort, beautiful views, food was amazing, drinks are great. Staff is very friendly, lots of great entertainment and shows. Rooms were cleaned 2-3x a day, every area was very clean, no waiting time for restaurants. I let the staff know about my food allergies and they went out of their way to accommodate. Will definitely go back.

Great resort...staff is great and very nice. Clean place... good crowd....food is good... entertainment is meh...transportation sucked though but that's my only complaint. Overall place is Fantastic will return ??

This was booked super last minute. There isn't much of a beach. The food was mediocre. Rooms need to be updated—big 1980's vibe. Bring walking shoes. Huge resort. Annoying that we had to walk for a bit to grab lunch or dinner. A la Carte was ok. Nothing special.

This was my fourth visit to Grande Bahia Principe Luxury. Situated on Runaway Bay, it has everything you could ask for. Nightly entertainment, pool and beach parties, and great food. Staff are superb.

Staff is incredible and constantly cleaning. They work so hard and always smiling. I love this resort and have been here about 15 times. Beach is awesome! Jerk chicken is the best from all the resorts I've been to.

We visited this hotel for the first time last year. We were so impressed that we booked our wedding then for this April 2025. There were some issues but the pros out number by far. The only issues We had was that we could not login to wifi when we arrived and AC in our room was not working as well as it should. We arrived at 9pm and we were able to connect to the wifi by the next morning. The only reason this was a concerns for us was because we could not communicate with our wedding guests that were already there. Other then that, Everything was amazing. The staff are always amazing, always friendly and bubbly. If there was any issues, they tried to resolve it right away. The buffets always had variety and was always fresh. They have an AMAZING drink menu, and the bartenders will make you pretty much anything you ask for. The entertainment staff always have something going on, and they are so easy to talk and joke with. They definitely contributed to some life long memories. I highly recommend the foam parties! The resort could use some renovations but they are closing for 2026 to do so. The resort is massive with multiple different things to do and see :shops, restaurants, dive shop, water activities. I am not one for visiting the same resort twice, but I will continue to come back here. Our wedding day was amazing. I was so stressed months leading up to the day, and i did not worry have to worry about anything that day. I accidently wrote the wrong reception area and they were able to correct it for me that day. They set everything up for us. I did not have to worry about anything that day, I would not change anything about it. I cannot give enough appraise for the staff here. They work so hard and always have a smile on their face. I highly recommend this place for a vacation or destination wedding.

I would rate the resort as average. Service was good and the food was fine, nothing special. I enjoy swimming in the ocean/sea. Unfortunately the water inside the breakwater was too shallow to swim so I was forced to swim outside the breakwater west of the hotel. This was OK (not ideal) when not windy but not possible when windy. The beach was very small and not really enjoyable for wading in the water or sunbathing. We tried to make reservations for the a la carte restaurants immediately upon arrival but the only times available were 9 and 9:30 p.m. This forced us to eat at the buffet all the time. VERY Disappointing! Recommend that guests be allowed only 2 or 3 a la carte reservations per week to allow other guests to the opportunity to experience the a la cartes. The resort is a long distance from the airport. Took 2.5 hours to travel from the resort back to the airport due to many stops along the way.

Dining was great. Good food, Friendly people Maintenance an issue. Called or visited the desk 5 times trying to get the toilet handle fixed. Finally fixed on the last full day we were there. Take a picture of the map on the walkways, the web site map isn't sufficient to find your way around.

This is a very large Hotel complex. We stayed on the Luxury Adults Only section. Our check in was very prompt and our rooms were large and very clean. We had a 3rd floor room with a balcony overlooking the pool and a partial view of the ocean. However it tended to be very noisy in the evening because we were close to the Bar. We had issues with the toilet and had to have someone up to fix it 3 times before it was fixed properly. We had a bad experience with the Romantic Dinner on the Beach which we paid extra for($68.us each). Two of us had the salmon and two had the steak. The steak was very tough and you could not cut it with the knife provided. Service was extremely slow!!! We spoke to several staff members at the front desk and reused to pay for the steak dinners. After much discussion and being referred to several staff during the process the hotel finally refunded us for 2 of the 4 dinners. The rest of the food was excellent at all of the buffets and the other a la cartes we visited especially The Knife Steak House. The Staff are the friendliest we have encountered in traveling. Always smiling and very courteous, they can not do enough for you. The beach at the family section was the best.

the hotel was clean and grounds were great the rooms ok hated there was no beach puts it done to a 1 for us, foods at buffet was for us uneatable , except for fruit and ice cream, rooms were outdated and old feeling, beds were hard and our fridge was not stocked daily. I will not return as this resort did not offer me 3 things I thought was there, beach/to swim in, international liquor (crown royale was $9.00 a shot american) and small

I had a really great vacation with this resort chain and would definitely go back! The resort was beautiful — the grounds were extremely well kept and clean, and the staff were all very friendly and welcoming. The food was fantastic, with the Asian restaurants being a real standout. We stayed on the luxury side, and I was a huge fan of the poolside entertainment — special shoutout to Crazy Legs for keeping the energy high and making it so much fun! The only downside to our stay was the delay in getting into our room. We didn’t get in until around 6 PM, and when we did, we noticed some slight mold issues and a non-working A/C. Thankfully, guest services acted quickly and moved us to a different room, which resolved the issue. All in all, it was a wonderful trip, and I’m already looking forward to returning!

The hotel is aging and in need of some updating. Having said that, it was very clean, the room was lovely, all the staff were top notch. Elevators were out of service frequently. This resort is large, if you have mobility issues it isn't for you. The a la carte restaurants were disappointing. The Knife and Mikado were good others nit so much. Trying to get a reservation was challenging as they aren't open everyday and apparently save tables for Privilege club members

Very clean, the food was excellent. The pool and deck were cleaned and scrubbed every day. The staff were very friendly and were accommodating to our needs. The only issue I had was getting around. I have issues walking and our room was a good walk to the restaurants. It would have been great to have a room closer to them. The beach is ok but we spent most of our ti.e at the pool.

This is a wonderful resort to stay at. The all the staff was friendly and helpful, excellent food and very clean. I was very happy we were at this chain of resorts again. Thanks for the wonderful week

The hotel was beautifully kept. There were fun activities to participate in everyday The various restaurants had a delicious variety of foods.The staff was absolutely friendly and helpful from beginning to end. They made our stay even more memorable. Thank you, thank you.

The facility is beautiful, huge and has many beaches and pools, resulting in a long "coast line" with plenty of beach chairs that are shaded. We never had to "fight" for a chair or rush to "reserve" one. The other guests were spaced away nicely so we had our privacy by the beach and pools - maybe because it was off season in February. The food was AMAZING. Every buffet offered something new and delicious, especially the Jamaican cuisine. The activities were great, we did the tennis lesson, bike ride, and yoga. The beach and pool parties were an absolute blast - the entertainment staff were very engaging. I loved that the resort had such an open and airy infrastructure. We spent all 4 days in the resort without even leaving and we loved it.

The service we received when there was 5 star . The people are so nice you can have a conversation with them.they were very accommodating from 24hour room service which was good our fridge was never empty we tip out beer cart conisour and he took very good care of us .the tub worked and the water was always hot .the bed was good and ac was ice cold . The maids always turn it down so check thermostat or u will freeze.the food was great we loved Jazmin buffet and the jerk centre chicken. The drinks were great lots of alcohol.we liked all the options of beaches to choose from and enjoyed being around the coconut beach bar. Lots of options for smokers aswell.the pools were great again lots of options multiple pools to suit your liking.we think the lobby bar was first class drinks and service . We used a private driver for our excursions ask Garfield about Raymond he took good care of us. Much cheaper and u spend time doing what you want not sitting in bus all day..the resort is getting long in the tooth but they were always painting trying to maintain.very clean resort . My biggest complaint is do not get a room facing the highway it is not quit trucks all day blowing horns an Jake breaks very frustrating by end of week as we would spend time on balcony between 3:30 and 5:300 before super and end of day before bed .

The staff are excellent, friendly, courteous and accommodating. The food was great as was the pool, entertainment and nice view of the ocean. The building is showing a bit of age and could use a bit of a touch up, but, no bugs, good a/c in the room. I would definitely go back.

Beautiful resort & rooms very clean, surrounded by beautiful pools and lots of chairs..,very big resort.Staff go out of their way to accommodate you. We had a couple of little minor issues which were looked after right away. The beach area is not very big but if you walk down behind the Grand they have a beautiful stretch of beach. Food was good but very hard to get a la Carte restaurants booked upon arrival.,Carla Love in the front lobby (customer service/butler) was so amazing.. it was like she was our best friend by the time we left.,she went out of her way when off duty to purchase a luggage lock which got broken. She started her shift early just to take the time to deliver the lock right to our room, and looked for us daily just to say hi and make sure had what we needed.. nightly entertainment was a little disappointing..we only went 2x which were good entertainers. Plenty of stuff happening around the main pool all day. All in all it was an enjoyable vacation.

Had a good time with my friends we eat lots chilled my the beach and I even won an Ironman competition that got me a bottle of rum. I’d say only thing is the staff were rude to my friends and while most were great some didn’t care

Hi Thete,me and my husband are really enjoyed our vacation , but when a cockroach appeared in the room.. I was shocked…also, when I tried to explain… gave tips..didn’t work.. my advice : better don’t notice about insects because everyday someone will call you ( you a sleeping )and ask about … clean.. u will ask please clean ..but it wouldn’t in way that supposed to be: u will find out :on the floor someone’ s hair or eyelashes’s … extentenshions Just better to forget… Anyway, we appreciated

I was here back in 2017 and while the food was ok it doesn’t hold up against the Riu chains. Beaches were decent with the exception of whatever kept “bumping” us in the water. Didn’t hurt just kind of startled you. Locals said it was baby stingrays. But didn’t see them Room appeared clean and nice but infested with cockroaches. They sprayed for us but within 4 days they were back again. This made living in the room and packing up extremely concerning.

The staff tries their best to give their guests the best experience. The food was good, however it was very repetitive. Going to Jamaica, you’d expect more traditional cuisine than there was North American cuisine. I found that very disappointing. Also, accessibility for elderly or disabled could be a bit challenging to navigate around. There is a lot of steps and bridges around the pool area. There could have definitely been more entertainment in the evenings without having to go to the neighbouring Grand Bahia which was much more vibrant and entertaining. I didn’t expect the Luxury to be a seniors home… the facade is also crumbling. Some much needed repairs and renovations would be necessary to keep clients coming back as there are many resorts along Montego Bay. There is absolutely no beach at all on the Luxury side. A 10 min walk would need to be made to access the beach on The neighbouring Grand Bahia. I’d give this resort a 6.5 out of 10 and that’s mainly bc of the bar staff and restaurant workers.

The resort was great. Staff amazing and the food was good. Only a few minor minor things. Would have liked for them to give me my luggage. I only had carry on but had to wait 20 mins for them to bring it to the room. More hand soap dispensers are needed in public restrooms. The beach area is to shallow, wish it was deeper.

The resort overall was very beautiful, a lot of places to dine, beach on the grand side did not have rocks in the water. My biggest disappointment was when checking in. After making note that we wanted 2 double beds we were given a king for 3 adult women. We were told that a cot would be delivered to the room. After a long travel day we checked in and went to dinner, enjoyed the musician in the lobby before returning to the room. Where we found no cot and had to call down for a cot when we just wanted to go straight to bed.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this resort. The staff was so warm and polite. The room was comfortable and clean. The food offered was full of variety and was simply the best. We loved the beach. The water was not too deep band was clean and clear.

The environment is beautiful, the room is spacious, the foods in the restaurants is good. The resort (Luxury Bahia) hard to swim on the beach, it is too much rocks & seaweeds, we had to walk to other side (Grand Bahia resort) to swim.

This was the second time to this resort ,disappointed with services that where provided, was so happy to return but unfortunately this will be our last.room service gas failed big time ,paid for luxury and before the kept them separated but now they don't seem to care tgat have of the pool has blue arm bands taking over ,why pay more when you can just make yourself at home .

Overall the complex is great , rooms are spacious and clean , pools and restaurants are plentiful. this was our second time at this resort and i will definitely be going back next year , however the one negative i had this time was it was difficult to book times at the a la cart restaurants which i found odd at this time of year ( mid April ) Entertainment crew was great ,especailly Kendar AKA Thunder who ran the aquafit every day ... awesome !!! The luxury side pays a little more attention to detail , making sure you have everything you need and the young gentleman named Ashdaine who checked in on us daily was ffantastic!!

I stayed at the Bahia Principe Luxury hotel in Montego Bay Jamaica. The hotel was super clean the people super nice treated me like I was one of there family members. Awsome food. There was an incident at my stay at this hotel that affected 2 buildings. No air conditioning. I know it wasn’t the staff’s fault but it could have been dealt differently. Until now there has been no compensation for 2 and half days sleeping in the heat which is very disappointing. I sent an email to higher management and still waiting for a response. But out of the the week I stayed there great food entertainment great people to talk had a great time.

We went as a group for our 40th bdays, great party vibe, food, and drink! Lots of room for pool lounging! We enjoyed the pool atmosphere more than beach! Spacious rooms. Hallways in morning was a bit loud but overall quiet on the 2nd floor. Resort staff was great especially Romario!

First time in Jamaica, here for 10 days. Resort was beautiful. The grounds very well maintained, never saw any garbage, glasses anywhere. Had breakfast and lunch at Las Olas pretty much every day, Vinton, was very friendly and helpful talking to my husband about the different rums. The Jerk chicken at lunch there was amazing. Didn't care much for the Brazilian A-la-Carte that was there at dinner time. Went to the Buffet the remainder of the time ... very pleased with it, Different theme every night,.plus always had Jamaican food. which was amazing. Our room was excellent, very clean and was exactly as we have had in the past at the Luxury in La Romana DR. The view however, not so good. Requested garden view. Instead overlooked the staff parking lot, the highway to the right, a few houses but did see a little of the ocean on the left. This was defiantly not gardenview ! The staff were very friendly and helpful. Resort so large, we got loss a few times trying to find the theatre for entertainment,(Bob Marley show was excellent) for even the first morning, didn't know where to go for breakfast. By the time other family members arrived a few days later, we had it all figured out. Several pools .... didn't care for the main pool at the Luxury. The "party pool" Very crowded, and noisy, The connecting pools between the Luxury and the Grand, much quieter. Better for napping or reading. The beach not great at our end. Had the cove, which was "cute" but not many chairs there and very windy. Had to go to the Grand side to be better. Downfall, the air conditioning broke down. The first 2 nights we froze, ok for the next few then it started getting warm. Questioned it, advised the A/C was out in the entire resort. Problem with pipes or something, probably why we froze the first couple of nights. Finally starting to feel more comfortable 2 days before leaving. Only did 1 excursion. Went to Nine Mile .. fabulous. A must do for any Bob Marlye fan!! Overall, had a great time. Would I come back here? probably not. Too large for our liking. But that's our preference.

Beautiful resort, grounds well maintained, very large and spread out. The beach areas are smaller compared to most resorts however they are still beautiful. Delicious food at the restaurants and buffets, each with plenty of variety for all diets. Butler service on the adults beach was awesome. The staff were all very friendly too. Spacious rooms, strong wifi.

Grounds were imaculate and well kept. Rooms really clean and well stocked. The pool was clean and looked beatiful at night. Great pool entertainment on Luxury side in the afternoon! Able to find chairs in the afternoon. Grand side beach was better for swimming and only short walk away. Must be there early to get shade and good seats. Luxury side better for peace/quiet/no kids but we went to Grand side beach daily. Lots of restaurants and great food. Book the Italian restaurant around sunset (beautiful). If you have the Bahia app, check in early and book your A La Carte's a few days before you go. Bars were great, service was fast and they made lots of different drinks (Pool, lobby and beach). Staff were so friendly and helpful. The few minor issues we had were fixed by staff pretty quickly. We didn't do much on the evening entertainment, too tired most nights and in bed early.

Our second trip to the Luxury Bahia Principe. This resort is amazing. The grounds are well kept, the rooms are spacious and clean. The food top notch. The staff amazing and so friendly. Only downfall was the plane that Air Transat had. Was not a normal plane but a "Smartwing" plane. One of the worst planes we have ever been on. Always love travelling to Jamaica and cant wait to go back again next year!

Had a 7 day stay at the Bahia Principe Luxury in Jamaica. Only an “okay” experience. Rooms outdated, food “okay” unable to book an A La Carte for over half of the stay because we travelled as a party of 8. Beach was a disappointment.

I had a great time at the Bahia. As a solo traveller the staff was open and very friendly! There is always something to do. Too notch food as well! Can't say enough about the friendliness of the staff. They are the reason I will return.

Hotel and grounds are amazing. Room is huge. Make sure you have the app for room service. If I would go back I would make sure. I got an ocean front room as the garden view was not a garden. It was houses. Room food grounds people 5/5 we had a great time..

I would say this a must go to resort in Jamacia, very well maintained, and beautiful. The rooms could use a update, but the service was spendid and the staff are really nice...would definitely return to this place.

From the moment we arrived, everything was organized and the staff was extremely friendly, polite, and professional. The hotel décor itself is a bit dated, but it was cleaned well and comfortable. Overall the food was tasty with many options available. Overall very impressed with how attentive the staff was, and in particular our guest service representative, who made sure to check in with us everyday and truly made our stay enjoyable.

Absolutely incredible resort, from the food to the service. This resort is everything you would want in an all inclusive spot. Truly an amazing spot and can’t wait to return! Shae at trip central was so helpful in booking this trip and we look forward to using her again in our next!

Entertainment staff was good. Buffett cold didn’t matter on the time you went. Room needed repair, mentioned never fixed. Resort very clean. Cooks always looked unhappy Bartenders were great We will not be going back. Very large resort, lots of walking to get to places.

The resort grounds and buildings were beautiful. There were so many great options for restaurants. The food was incredible and the service very good. Our room in building 26 on the Luxury side of the resort was very large and comfortable with an impressive view of the Ocean from the moment you open the door. It definitely is worth the bit extra to have ocean view. The evening entertainment was ok with various acts each night like Violin or piano and or singer plus a main show that is about an hour. Most nights afterwards there was a Karaoke sports bar to fall back to. The resort is quite large so it's great for walking and the beaches ranged from ok to good depending on what you are used to. The Bahia ap is convenient to book and keep track of your reservations as well as for speeding up check-in and for self check out. Don Pablo's and The Knife restaurants were probably my favourites, but the Japanese and Asian were both really good also. For Lunch Jazmin, the Round Island, and Las Olas were all great. Pisces was ok and convenient. All had views of the ocean while dining. For day bars Coconuts on the beach was the best with waiter service on the beach being a nice Luxury we enjoyed.

This resort is very well kept and all common areas are very visually appealing. The rooms are fairly well appointed although not enough outlets to charge all devices. The a la Carte dining experiences were enjoyable but the buffet needs a serious upgrade. The fruit was not appealing. Hot foods were not kept hot enough. I used the on-site microwave several times to warm up my plate of food. The noise level (if your room faces the pool area) was constantly irritating. Sitting on the room balcony to have peace and quiet to read a good book was NOT happening. I was in the luxury side, adults only. I will never stay on this side again. The family side (even with the kids) was much more peaceful.

The resort looks nice outside with the pools and trees and nice landscaping, but rooms are showing signs of needing updating, public bathrooms often have something not working- hand dryer, toilets etc., and we had no air conditioning in our rooms for 4 days and 3 nights!! Apparently, some guests had no water either. Also, their restaurant reservation system is ridiculous! They post one week's availability at a time and if you don't catch it right when they post it, all the spots are filled. Their app that you're supposed to use is not user friendly and doesn't have all the info you need on it. We were on the adult side, and they didn't do a very good job of keeping kids out of our area or pool. Food was generally good but buffet often cold or out of stuff. Food at the al a cartes was hit and miss. Having said all that, the service staff are fantastic! Very friendly and helpful. Terreshia, Ladonna (Lisa) and Latoya are great. Lobby bar staff and al a carte staff are great as well. This resort needs to make some serious changes. Maybe the general manager or whomever makes the decisions needs to change. I've been there twice now and will never go back.

Was frustrated trying to book a'la Cart restaurants. One of our party had been at this resort a couple of months prior and was told we could book all 10 before we arrived. We could only book 3. Then we were told the restaurats would be loaded mid afternoon Saturday. They were loaded Friday night, then all booked for where and/or when we wanted to go. The entertainment on the app. should state 'where' it is located, to prevent us trying to find it. Children should be kept out of the adult section and pool by staff. Not wait for visitors to advise staff. Buffet food was never warm, even at the time it was opened. Air conditioning was out in our rooms and some restaurants for 3 days of our stay, without any communication from staff. Water pressure was a problem on Friday December 8th, including not being able to flush the toilet. Pool was not adequately cleaned. There was algae on walls, and leaves on floor of pool. In 10 days we were there, I never saw it vacuumed, we were at the pool all day and could see it from our rooms.

Al La Carte booking system - when we arrived on Nov 29th we were told we couldn't book Dec 3-9 dinners until around 230pm Dec 2nd. At around 930pm Dec 1st we just happened to go on site and reservation system was open. Luckily we booked our restaurants because by 10am Dec 2nd all reservations were gone. App not being user friendly/containing relevant info - entertainment location not included on the app - had to hunt it down on the resort property. Kids regularly showing up in adult pool and security needing to be advised - why was security not monitoring the premises? Air conditioning broken for 3+ days - self explanatory Water pressure spoty- sometimes it was great, other times it was just a trickle.

Beautiful ground, small beach areas ie can't take long walks on the beach, food overall good not great, buffet food often cold. Service very inconsistent from poor to good. On occasion, you asked for something they either ignored you or said they would get it for you and never came back to the table. Even the one towel person just glanced at us standing there and continued to talk to a coworker. Al a carte restaurants better service. Some minor issues in rooms never resolved. We stayed at the luxury side and excepted exceptional all around.

Our flight was on time but was not impressed that it took us almost 3 hours to get to our hotel. The bus driver had us waiting close to 45 minutes for a couple who was outside the airport enjoying beers, etc. There was absolutely no need to stop midway for restroom breaks when all we wanted was to check in to our hotel. The noise factor every night with extremely loud music was too overbearing. No clocks in the room and the air conditioner was not working. Unable to use the Room safe the last day of our vacation due to low battery. Overall, wide selections of meals but it was disgusting on the high volume of flies in cafeteria. As a result, we were forced to have our breakfasts and lunches everyday at the Jasmine Restaurant, We had reservations at the Japanese restaurant on November 22, but we were turned away after waiting for close to 20 minutes. The reason being the hostess was rude and could not find our reservation. We were there to celebrate a family member’s birthday. The hostesses at the restaurants should be more courteous, friendly and pleasant to PAYING GUESTS!! The saving grace was the exceptional services received by outstanding employees such as Keith, Casey (bell boys) and Nicola who attended to our room bar. A big shout out to Tiffany, evening waitress at the Jasmine restaurant who went above and beyond the realm of her job scope to get a meal over to one of our relatives who was sick the day before our departure on November 24. Only Received bath gel the day before departure.

There was cock roaches in the toilet in my room and also the pool bathroom toilet. The restaurants and buffet had NO AC only in ur room. The food was the same all the time!! I give this resort ZERO STARS!!!

Absolutely loved this resort from the amazing people that work there to the lovely rooms. Not too many people had booked there so not all restaurants were opened at the same time, understandably made sense. However all buffets made up for that...we could always find something wonderful to eat. It was my birthday while we were there and they all went out of their way to make it very special for me, right down to a wonderful bubble bath...

My wife and I went to BP Luxury RB resort (adult section) to celebrate our wedding anniversary on October 7 for one week. Overall it was a good experience, however it could have been better. Let's start with the pros: The resort facilities are beautiful and very well maintained, the rooms are very clean and spacious, the corridors and common areas are pristine. The cons: For us it did not start very well as we spent almost 1.5 hours doing immigration and customs. There is an option to pay to expedite the process. I believe it would be worth it. The food was not good to our taste and at par compared to previous experiences at other luxury resorts in the Caribbean. There are only 3 restaurants, however getting reservations is very challenging, therefore we ended up having most of our meals at the buffets. The food served there was almost the same every day. On the package it was offered the access of the facilities of the family section including the restaurants, however some of them were closed due to low occupancy and getting reservations for the rest was impossible. The best for us was the Japanese Mikado tepanyaki dinner. The resort is great however the service is not the same. A lot of servers at the bars and restaurants had bad attitude and were, in some cases, rude. We believe that because of the low occupancy there were a lot of locals, in particular on the weekends, that got preferred treatment for service at the bars and restaurants than the rest of the tourists. The beach on our side was man made, small, shallow and rocky. I found this resort over priced, not 5 starts due to the service. The beach, the entertainment and the bar hours were better on the family section.

Pros: I Loved my spa day - my massage therapist was Eva and I got the Jamaican message (similar to Swedish). Entertainment team was awesome, entertainment manager, Liyah, and her team brought the energy!!! Every space was covered with entertainment staff (lobby, poolside, and beach). Pre Check-in was easy and time efficient! Beautiful ocean room view! Beautiful pool! Con: I was unclear what the role of my butler was, they weren’t properly introduced or explained, hardly saw them ( was the contact info suppose to be exchanged, do they book excursions or restaurants?!). My room bathroom ceiling was leaking, took a day and half to fix even after I complained - staff should have offered another room. Adult beach VERY rocky.

Stunning hotel room.Terrible food. Incredible beaches. Clean sand, warm water. The nude beach was rocky and treacherous- needs improvement. Staff so lovely, warm. Beautiful country, impoverished citizens.

Service sucks and the food isn't good it was hit and miss! THE Room accommodation didn't go as planned. Disappointed!! Would never recommend NOT sure how they have supposedly high ratings. A bunch of people I know also went and had the same complaints

I have been to this resort 3 years ago After COVID I thought it would be a chore and skeptical of the processes that would be in place that would hinder my vacation but I was pleasantly impressed the resort is SANITIZED clean and fresh daily and non of the processes stopped the Zen this resort supplies!

The resort activities were ok, the food wasn’t my favourite since it didn’t give me the full Jamaican experience, but the view was absolutely beautiful and the service was stellar. Very professional and accommodating.

I'm not going to lie the resort is nice, food is amazing, and the waiters and waitresses are extremely pleasant. They work extremely hard. We booked an Ocean View room with accessibility availability. We received that. But the elevator was down the entire week. The walking across slippery marble flooring was extremely dangerous or walk up three floors to get to our room. But be very carefully in the stairway. I got my thumb caught in the railing going down and banged it up pretty good. There was so much condensation from the humidity the floors were sweating. No lie. When walking across from one building to another about 300 meters if not more on slippery floors with a cane, I had a few incidents of almost falling. If my husband wasn't there to catch me, I would have been on the ground and in the hospital. It is a very difficult resort to get around. You do not have a beach on the Luxury side you have a beach on the family side. To access the beach, you have to take a trolly over and walk about 500 meters to get to the beach. Once again not easily accessible. We also had a time share stalker from the first day he caught us at the pool side. We just go there stood around for 1.5 hours and we just wanted to unwind, and he didn't take no for an answer. He completely dismissed me and talked right through me (I'm female). Made very rude chauvinistic comments saying that older men need to teach the younger women about life and keep them in their place. He didn't ask me my opinion he just spoke to my husband and said don't worry you will get a spa treatment out of this. I was beyond angry. We then went for dinner that night and he come up to our table in the middle of a nice ala carte meal and stands in front of us. We go what do you want? He said nothing just checking in on you......that creeped us out completely. He then called our room at 8 a.m. the next day and we told him we want to don't want to talk about time sharing. He was assertive with me on the phone and I told him no. That day we go to the lobby, and I needed a break from the walking. We sat down in front of the marketing and promotion section. Just by accident. A wonderful women approached us I wish I could remember her name. She asked if I was okay and my husband. No more than 5 minutes of her asking if we were okay he was right behind my husband glaring at me. His name was Davian (close to that spelling). I tell my husband to turn around and my husband at this point told him that he's a stalker and ruining our vacation. We were done with the time share nonsense. The ala carte restaurants were amazing except for Takara the Chinese restaurant. Very disorganized, salty food and their portioning was way off. Between the appetizer and the main course we waited 45 minutes. Because I wasn't feeling well we asked them to send my meal up to my room. That got there later but I was able to eat it. The heat was so intense at the resort that the air-conditioning at the restaurants on the Luxury and the Grand were mainly out. Out of 7 restaurants 2 had air conditioning working. Even the fans that they placed didn't help. Although you had reservations for the ala carte restaurants you had to take the trolly to the grand side. Be prepared to wait if you aren't a privileged member and the carts are so not maintained and half the time, they run out of battery around 9 pm so be prepared to be sweaty and sticky by the time you get to the restaurant or leave the restaurant. Also, the ala carte allows children in the restaurants even if you stay at the Luxury adults only side. They can go to the adults only side to have dinners there. So, if you want a quiet romantic dinner, you won't get it here. Another fault of having two monster hotels in one. You want adults only you won't get it completely adults only especially at breakfast and dinner. Finally, my last complaint about the resort is the butler service. Sometimes you had to wait 2 hours for a bucket of ice, they do not have ice machines in the hallways or accessible to the general public. Sometimes you didn't get it and had to order it again and wait another hour. We also pre-ordered room service the night we were leaving because we wanted to take a sandwich with us on the plane. The pre-order never came. This happened twice. I wanted to surprise my husband with a breakfast in bed. The order never came. I was so disappointed. The last piece that I wanted to let you know is that I have never felt so racial profiled at this resort. We are white professionals, and we were snubbed by a lot of the clientele and the staff. While speaking to other people that were there we weren't the only ones that had this happen to them. The resorts apology to us for all this was 2 x 25 minute massages. This was just not worth the frustration we went through. I will go back to Jamaica. But will never go back to this resort. The amount that we paid for a week for an Ocean view we could have had a 7 - 9 day Mediterranean Cruise.

Everything was absolutely beautiful! Latoya and Carlyle at the pool bar were simply amazing! Nashville who helped us to our room was the nicest person ans always stopped to say hello in passing as well. The resort was clean and comfortable. The only thing we had trouble with was our air condition that was not working properly. Other guests we met said their rooms were freezing cold, however we did not have comfortable sleeps at night as the air-conditioner did not cool the room well at all. That was disappointing as we did let the front desk know. But it didn't seem anything was done about it.

I loved everything about the hotel. From how we were welcomed to how we were treated ( specially Jason G. the Buttler who I will highly recommend because he did an amazing service, Lory the waitress that attended to my room(26704) during my stay and everyone on duty for my room's services. Room cleaning was always impeccable. The hotel is really beautiful more than I really expected. I loved the entertainment teams, the food quantity and variety is a plus too. the little small issue I will say sometimes, the food room service can be a little bit late at times but they are doing their best. I understood. Another little small issue is refusing the guest entry for a late arrival for a la carte restaurant, if they can be a little bit understanding for maybe up to a 30 minutes late arrival.

We stayed at the Luxury Bahia Principe. Grounds are kept very clean. The pools are awesome! Beaches are clean. Restaurants good food! Service excellent! The only comment I have is lack of entertainment - there are entertainment but not throughout the day. So we had to go to the neighbouring Grand Bahia Principe to join some fun and games. But overall, I would still go back to this resort.

It's a three star our stay was a disaster...thanks to ALICA DAWSON our room was like the pit stop of the car race...NOT THE PLACE TO SPEND MY 45 WEDDING ANNIVERSARY...WE WASTED OUR MONIES ...WASTED OUR TIME ...OUR 45 ANNIVERSARY WAS SUPPOSED TO BE FANTASTIC....WHAT A DISASTER IT TURN OUT AT YOUR PLACE

Hotel room is very nice. Service is fantastic. However, the beach is full of rock, you will need to navigate carefully to get into the water. The water is very clear and you can see the bottom of the sea. For the hotel: It's loud at night , not the hotel's fault. It's just other guests that always talk loudly in the corridor at night. They should get rid of the carpets on the hallway in some buildings, very old and smelly.

Our vacation was spectacular, loved the resort, amazing food and our butler Keith made our stay very special! It’s our second time there and would certainly go back again ! I would recommend this place to all our friends

Honest review for the Luxury side! We saw the good and bad reviews before coming so we were prepared but we also were just happy to get away without our children. First off....the app! We actually found it very user friendly and were able to book all our a la cartes with no problem at all. We checked in ahead of time and when we arrived they just had to give us our bracelets and take us to our room. They even set up our WIFI which works amazing anywhere in the hotel or on the beach. The room! We were in building 26 2nd level on the road side however we did get partial ocean view. We didn't ask for a room ahead of time so it was a pleasant surprise. It was quiet inside the room luckily because the road noise gets really loud especially the trucks. We met someone who were in 25 and the noise could be heard inside which can be an annoyance if you're a light sleeper. Our bed was more firm which I didn't mind but my husband didn't like it. The bathroom was clean and well stocked with shampoo, conditioner and body wash as well as body lotion (I didn't bring my own). The housekeeper was great, always went over and above tidying our room. The bar fridge guy was amazing and gave us whatever we wanted. We always tipped a few bucks each day for both. The food! We were impressed and disappointed at the same time. First a la carte was Picasso, our server Shawnie was amazing and so polite. The food was better than I was expecting as a whole, we got the chefs special which was tenderloin with shrimp, garlic mashed potatoes and veg. We ordered medium rare and it came out still mooing 🐄 The manager Mr. Fisher was quick to notice and replaced our meals at which point it was over cooked but the flavor was good. The next one was Riddiccio which was disappointing, everything just tasted the same and desperately needed salt. The Knife was next and it was great. Now I got the salmon because I had so much beef the 2 previous dinners and my husband got the brisket. I loved my meal, the salmon was flavourful and my husband like his but he said the bark was too burnt to enjoy and we like the crispy bits. The next was Dolce Vita and it was the worst for us. Our apps were great, i got the nisoise salad and my husband got the carpaccio. The pizza was awful it had so much cheese and dough it was off putting we actually felt awful and left. I had the lazagna and it was underwhelming and cold in the middle. We were excited for this one too. The Japanese tepenyaki was really fun and the food was great, definitely our top 3 next to the Jamaican night at the buffet and #1 being the Jerk Hut it is worth the 20min walk from the luxury side.. The buffet is great, a lot of options for everyone. The desserts as a whole basically sucked aside from the fried ice cream. As a whole we ate great The beach! It was small and the water was very shallow however we brought floaties and could float in the shallow water. The is a couple of pelicans that dive bomb fish and they have no care if you are close. Scared me right off my floatie lol the grand side is much bigger but we wanted the quiet of Adults Only. If you don't indulge in Jamaicas greenery you may get annoyed with being asked especially for men. I never got asked but my husband did about 20 times. If you are coming alone as a woman, maybe bring a fake wedding band, we met a wonderful lady traveling alone and she was getting approached a lot which irritated her a lot so she came down to the beach to avoid it. The pools! They were clean and well maintained (we enjoy the beach more). There was some model convention so the resort was swarming with ity bity bikinis and the party pool was loud but if you went to one area closer to the beach you can get your quite. There seemed to be a lot of opinions but they didn't bother us. There is a place for everyone in my opinion. The bars! We LOVED the beach bars. We found they always tried to make the best drink for you. I was able to fill my insulated water bottle with Pina coladas and the slushiness never melted. Best thing we brought next to floaties. The lobby bar wasn't our favorite, far too strong. The luxury lobby! We avoided it after the first day when we got bombarded with the "welcome breakfast" invite. We said no so many times and they just don't let up. They were even calling the room which kinda annoyed us. The staff were okay. We stayed at the Royalton White Sands and the staff was so warm and welcoming. We didn't get that same feel, there were only a couple of people who stood out and that was Natalie and Kalvin from the Japanese place. Our housekeeper warmed up a little near the end and the life guards on the luxury side were friendly but as a whole it wasn't what we were used to. I'm sure this varies depending on your personal experience. As a whole it was good, we came to relax in a beautiful country and we did just that. If you are not a fan of humidity then go before June because it really affected us. Overall it's a 4 out of 5 for us. Like I said we still had an amazing time together since that's what was really important to us and we met some other amazing people well stay in touch with. It's all about your attitude.

Service was pretty good 7.5/10, resort was well maintained. Rooms definitely needed upgrading. Pools were great and clean! Entertainment was pretty good. Beach was smaller but did the job and was never overcrowded. Room service was quick and food was always good! Price wise, for Jamaica, I believe this resort is a great option! If I can find an even better deal for this resort I would return. Also, Trip central is awesome. Easy to find the best deals, service is always great! Thanks!

Excellent Hotel with beautiful large rooms with all the ementies your are looking for. Minior repairs required due to age of building. The food at the buffet and restaurant was good with a variety of food. Lack variety of breakfast cereal.

The luxury side is great minus the beach, you have to go to the grand side of you want an actual beach. The food is okay at this resort, nothing special. The gym is great. The entertainment was good. Ash the butler is awesome!

Altho the resort itself was nice and clean the staff are rude and didnt care if you were there or no. The smell of constant cigarettes and pot ruined the vacation. U couldn't enjoy the evening entertainment or pool area as clouds of smoke surrounded you. I could never have my patio door open to sit on it or enjoy the sounds as everyone had to smoke on their balconies. There arent enough umbrellas at the pool either. Go to Mexico its 100x's better.

I went for the sun and beach and it didn't disappoint. This is my third time at this resort and will be my last. This time around we had the garden room, I was hoping to see tropical plants instead it was a parking lot. The room was clean but there are visible stains on the chairs and the cushions had a musky smell. The room was also very noisy and there were leaks in the hallway. I think that ash trays should be provided to people on the beach so they don't put their cigarette butts in the sand. The best meal we had was at the Mikado restaurant, the worst meal was at The Knife, we couldn't eat the meal. We mostly ate at Jazmin and the beach restaurants. The grounds are well kept and staff very friendly and helpful.

The hotel is clean. Its outdated. The beach is mostly rocky bays. We were not impressed with a la carte restaurant that we cacelled our last 2. Bar did not have all the basic liquors and they didnt have any limes or mint. Staff said "not in season". Pools were nice. We had brought floating tubes and wanted to go around the pool but they are all blocked under the bridges. So you had to get out and walk to the next section of the pool. It was our first time at a 5*and we were expecting a little better except it wasn't. Most 4 1\2 I went (including one in Jamaica) were a lot better. I wont going to that resort again.

The resort was definitely Big!! We stayed on the luxury side (adults only) . Really no complaints! Food was awesome, better than any other resort. Rooms spacious . Staff friendly. We had an issue with our safe , called front desk and someone was there within 10 mins to resolve the issue. No issues getting chairs in the morning, but if you’re there too early in the morning they remove your towels. Sunsets are amazing! 😁

The Hotel is huge and things are spread out, which took a couple of days to get used to, we were on the Luxury adult only side had a separate gym which was lovely, had butler service so that we could get fresh coffee when we woke up, The pools were super nice, beach was nice and relaxing, even though it is very shallow, so not ideal if you like to swim, found the Service was good as a whole some better than others, always clean rooms etc, definitely reccomend the resort, I would go again for sure, only negative was that they did not have any non alcoholic beer, but probably all of these resorts would be the same story, as people normally go and enjoy their beverages.

I stayed on the Luxury side the last week of February 2023. Going in, having read reviews, I was hoping some of the reviews were not accurate. To say the least, I have no idea what there is to complain about. My room was fabulous! Up to date, always clean, with a fabulous view. The food was outstanding everywhere I ate. I was able to book 6 a la cartes, Dolce Vita (with Ken Roy serving us with a smile), The Knife twice (Anthony Palmer - the absolute best server we ran into, remembered us the next night when we were there at Don Pablo and made sure we had the best seat in restaurant even though he was doing the romantic dinners on the beach), Picasso (Nikita outstanding service), Rodizio ( Hushane and Gwayne, were consistently looking after our needs), and Don Pablo (Alex Paddyfoot- who went out of his way to ensure that my birthday meal was everything I could hope for). The River Falls bar had amazing staff as well. Jermaine became my go to guy. As soon as he saw me and I said "whatever" he created drinks that I thoroughly enjoyed. I had a massage on the beach with Kimone, leaving her totally relaxed. The staff at this resort are always going out of their way to make sure that their guests feel welcome an at home while staying with them. My butler, Shanice, made me so happy with the birthday sign on my door, and then birthday wishes spelled out on my bed. The cleanliness of this resort is outstanding. They power wash the pool decks each and every night. There are personnel on the beach cleaning chairs and tables all the time. It was so much fun to again get to snorkel in the "lagoon". I had forgotten how many different kinds of fish there were. One day, much to the delight of those on the beach, there was a small octopus! When my time there came to an end, I really was disappointed that I had not booked a longer stay. I will be back!

This resort is always being maintained and cleaned. Very large pools and plenty of chairs. Beach is small but private and protected from the ocean. I snorkeled a few times during my stay in shallow calm waters and was amazed at what I saw. The buffet had lots of great choices and we absolutely loved the jerk. All the staff are friendly and helpful and provide regular day and night entertainment. We love to see new places but I would definitely stay here again and recommend it to anyone.

The Air Transat flight was perfect. PROS: The hotel is beautiful on the outside. The Lobby is beautiful. The grounds are lovely. the pools are immaculate. Staff , food and drinks amazing! Entertainment staff is Vegas quality! CONS: The rooms are dated. The bathrooms were gross. The finishes consisted of caulked, poorly installed marble. The bedding was hard with only a thin blanket provided. I was sold a garden room. It faced a concrete pad and a highway. I complained to the front desk and they only tried to upsell me for 200US to a sea view or ocean view room. I did not get to pick my room or choose my ala cartes via the app. The Bahia App was a pain in the ass. The Sports bar is a joke. They have bands playing Reggae instead of letting you watch or hear games.

We ended up upgrading to a "Seaview" room when we checked in... and we're glad that we did! Our friends that we travelled with didn't upgrade and were quite unhappy with their room - definitely not a garden view! The view from our Seaview room was outstanding though. Cleanliness - our room was very clean but the stairways could be quite dirty at times. Elevator on our end of the building rarely worked which forced us to use the stairs. Not necessarily a bad thing because we got to work off all of the calories from the meals! The food was good. I wouldn't say bad but I wouldn't rave about the meals either. Specialty restaurants were generally better than the buffet. Disappointed that there were no mangos or lobster/crab at any time... unless you went to the Lobster raft and paid $30 US per person. The grounds were kept very clean and the staff worked hard to stay on top of things. Entertainment staff were ALWAYS keeping things hopping. If you're looking for a quiet, restful vacation this is NOT the resort for you. The music at the "party" pool was always VERY loud and the bar was always lively - from sun up to sun down. Seaview rooms in buildings 25 & 26 overlook the party pool - so no afternoon napping unless you bring ear plugs. If you're looking for a fun, lively place this resort is for you. Felt safe walking around the resort - even at night - lots of security discreetly around the property. Overall - I wouldn't say anything bad about the resort. I don't think I'd return though... for the money we could have gotten more for our money in Dominican Republic or Mexico.

The resort was really nice .. great people friendly..staff will always greet you in a politely manner..room service was A+ had my room cleaned sometimes 2 times a day loved the resort…would go back a million times

Just back from a fantastic week! Our room was great with an amazing view of the pool and ocean. Entertainment team worked hard all day and night! Had to work a bit to get dinner reservations but managed to secure 6 of them. Food was amazing - no complaints! Looking forward to returning in the future! My only complaint would be for the resort to do away with reservations for dinner or at least make the process easier.

Really great food, the beach was rocky and hard to swim in. People/culture was delightful! The resort was an average all-inclusive. Never enough towels in the room. Overall 7/10 - probably wouldn’t go again.

Very great experience! Food was great! Everyone was very friendly! Luxury side was definitely cleaner we noticed only downfalls were the mattresses were extremely old and even with the upgraded pkg, some drinks were not included. bud / budlight / corona / redbull, top shelf drinks

We absolutely loved our stay at Bahia. The staff was amazing and took care of us every step of the way. The food was great and the choices were endless with so many restaurants. The entertainment was amazing and we loved every minute of it! We will definitely be going back.

We had a wonderful, relaxing vacation. The food was excellent, the room was comfortable. I would rate this resort 4 out of 5. The room services were lacking in that replacement of used products were not replaced and house keeping didn't show up every time.

Resort grounds and rooms were as advertised. Worthy of 4-5 star. The staff was another story. Of course there are always great hard working people but I would say that this was not the majority. Major issue was the none stop offering to buy drugs of all kinds. I was even offered to buy drugs during a diner service. This was all done by staff member. For an all inclusive I have never been told so much that there was an extra charge of items.
