Jan 02, 2025Find another resort!
We had our annual reunion at the Bahia Principe Grand Punta Cana. We did enjoy our time together, however the name ‘Grand’ is a misnomer. The rooms could do with an upgrade. The bathrooms did not feel clean, the caulking had black discoloration along the edge of the bath tub. The food left much to be desired. We had to use bug repellent everyday since the property was mosquito infested. The Brazilian restaurant, Tequila had decent food. However, the Indian restaurant Thali was not up to the mark. Negatives: Lengthy Check in time Difficulty getting reservations for dinner Quality of buffet food items and restaurant not great Mosquitoes Positives: Decent entertainment Beautiful beach and property

I hate to give bad reviews but i want you to know something. The main buffet in bahia principe grand punta cana it stinks really bad that could make a person really sick. The rooms smell moldy and musky. Too many mosquitos is the room. The food in the italiano restaurant is delicious. The people that clean the rooms are lazy. The reception área the employee are doing there job.

Experience was 'OK'
We stayed in Esmeralda. Do NOT use the safe--my in-laws had money stolen from the safe. They're still conducting an 'investigation'. Property is gorgeous, you need transportation to get around but there were plenty of trolleys around. We were 'Privileged' so there was always one at the ready. Food was unremarkable--but they had the best french fries. We were supposed to get a discount for the $85 lobster dinner at the Fish House, but no one could figure out who was supposed to execute it--the Fish House or Customer Experience Desk. We didn't get the discount and the lobster was awful--too mushy. One other restaurant we went to touted lobster and porterhouse steak--on Wednesday they were out of both for the week. Privilege Lounge (Esmeralda) ran out of tonic water around dinnertime one evening--they suggested I check with another bar instead of trotting off themselves to see if another bar had some in storage somewhere. The spa is wonderful. I found the staff to be friendly and attentive for the most part, but I have no reason to return.

Nov 27, 2024Changes can be made
Resort is beautiful! The staff in every department were very helpful and accommodating. The hotel needs to be a little more dated. Management needs to pay more attention to the resort by putting more into fixing the resort. Management needs to pay employees to smoke the whole resort everyday as there are a lot of mosquitos/sandflies. My whole body has bites. For the restaurants; the food was delicious and beautifully presented. With the many restaurants this restaurant only provides 2 a la carte for each couple. They were really particular about this. Not every guest books their la carte so they should be a little loose on this. Overall, this place is extremely beautiful with lots of amenities and activities.

Nov 17, 2024Such a nice resort!
It’s not my first rodeo. The resort is great. Beach is great, pools too! Lively atmosphere by the pool, in the lobby - everywhere in the the resort. Food was very tasty, healthy and plentiful. The poolside food and drink were well appointed. Staff was all great and welcoming. Remember to bring a Thermos cup with you. Really helps to keep the poolside drinks cold. Room was well-appointed and comfortable. Everything is open-air so of course there are mosquitoes. Not like Canadian mosquitoes. Here, the mosquitoes alight but don’t bite. Trust me, I know from mosquitoes.
