Firstly a quick brief on my self, first time to carribean and first outside europe, i usually stay in self catering apartments/hotels, so this was all new to me. Me and the misses stayed here from 11-25 of may. On arrival at the hotel (Bavaro) we was greeted with the bell boys who asked us if we was staying at... More

I am here along with my twin sister and we have had an excellent stay. All, and we do mean all, of the staff have made our vacation the best. We arrived May 24 and will leave May 31. We no next to nothing in Spanish but have been able to communicate very well with the staff. If you come... More

My husband and I along with my mother and father went the Ambar section of the Gran Bahia Principe for 7 days. The two main reasons were that it is all-inclusive and adults only. It was OK. Upon arriving at the airport, first of all, we were greeted with people playing music (wonderful by the way), but when we got... More

We stayed at the Gran Bahia Principe Ambar from May 11-18. This was our third time in the D.R. and the first time at this hotel. We absolutely loved the quiet setting of this adults-only resort. If you like large resorts, as we do, you will definitely enjoy the property. The grounds are immaculate and so well manicured. There are... More

We stayed at the Gran Bahia Principe Ambar for 5 nights May 13-18. It was very nice to get away but i don't think this resort was for us. We are in our early-mid thirties and pretty laid back so despite the things we didn't care for we still had a great time. THE GOOD: Jacuzzi tub comes standard in... More

Excellent place. Very Clean. Very good meals. Excellent service. Buffet is on a different theme every night. Thursday is seafood usually with langosta. A la carte Gourmet Don Pablo is a must. Treat yourself by buying a good bottle of wine (~40$). Room was very fine #66317 get to be on a corner of the main lobby with a large... More

Gran Bahia Principe Ambar May 16-19. The hotel was excellent in layout, food, service and friendliness of staff. Certainly worth paying extra to stay at Ambar which is a higher level than the Bavaro and Punta Cana hotels in the same resort. Staying at Ambar (couples only) is nice and we enjoyed better availability of shaded beach spots (only available... More

Pros: Beautiful beaches, Nice facilities, quality food, special touches, quiet mature atmosphere, spa Cons: Service, restaraunt reservation sytems, language barriers My frends and I recently returned and there are certainly many more pros than cons. If your are expecting the same standards as a Mexico resort with respect to service, you may be disappointed. Too few waitresses around beach and... More
