Nice facilities, great beach, great staff. Unfortunately would not return or recommend due to a single facto: Too many smokers and no smoke free areas. There was literally nowhere at the pool or beach area that was smoke free (not even at the little kids pool). There should be separate sections or smoke free areas in the hotel. Felt like you were in a giant ashtray, with second hand smoke everywhere. One guest’s nasty habit/addiction should not impact another’s enjoyment. Yet the lack of any non-smoking areas meant smokers were entirely within their right to smoke pretty much everywhere and anywhere in the hotel (only exception being inside the restaurant/lobby).

March 6th-13. Bit of a drive from the Punta Cana airport to the resort. The resort itself is beautiful. Lots of chairs in lobby. Nice breeze blowing through. Rooms are very clean we stayed in room 1004. Only complaint was the tub for showering. The paint was peeling off the tub. Nothing on the resort is a far walk. Food lots of it and very tasty. I am picky and didn’t have a problem. Pool bar and pool. Lots of wonderful tasting drinks. Pool itself for the most part is clean, it could be improved a little. Chairs in shade can be challenging to find. You are NOT allowed to save chairs. BEACH … the beach itself is shaded, grounds are kept so clean, lots of chairs . HOWEVER if you are a water person this beach is not for you. It’s mucky you can’t see the bottom and lots of jellyfish you can’t see. One lady got stung when we were there. I went in once that was it. So sad because I am a beach person. So if you’re going for the beach this is not the resort for you. Which is why we will not be returning. Other than the beach itself a perfect vacation spot. Noice level for nightly entertainment in the lobby can be VERY loud . To the point people were complaining. Value wise little expensive for not having a good beach water. STAFF is amazing and so friendly. I hope if you choose this resort you have a great week. Cheers

Merveilleux

Been to the Caribbean many times and in many locations and I must say that this is the worst time we have had. The hotel itself is set in very beautiful gardens which are very well maintained, the rooms are large and spacious and a little dated. The bath was full of little chips and dents and there is no hot water at all across the whole hotel which is very disappointing. The pool is very large but also cold. This is the only hotel in the Caribbean where you need to be up early to reserve a sunbed as they are taken quickly. The food is mediocre at best and is repetitive. The al a carte restaurant are very good and well a visit. The evening entertainment is very poor and very amateurish, not very well planned out. There is not much entertainment during the day either. The beach area is clean & tidy however the sea is a no go zone jelly fish warning every day and the sea is a murky and doesn’t look to pleasant. The staff at this hotel do not understand very much English considering they cater for the American/Canadian clientele. Beware every morning you will be hassled by the Biahia sales team trying to sell you some sort of privilege club they are very insistent and are always hanging around on the morning as you come and go for breakfast. Even when you tell them your not interested they still insist on try to sell you the scheme.

The pools were amazing with multiple swim up bars and they made basically any drink you wanted. The buffets had a great variety of food for all dietary needs and the staff were very helpful. I took advantage of one of the spa packages and even booked a scuba dive for myself near Catalina Island which was incredible! The dive master was very knowledgeable and provided great support as it has been a little while since I last dove so he helped me get weighted properly during the first dive. The cost was on the pricier side but included 2 dive sites, full gear rental including a wet suit and lunch on Catalina island.

We were staying at the Grand Bahia but the receptionist checking us in recommended an option to upgrade to the Luxury side for access to the adults only pool and more high end restaurants. What they didn’t tell us was that we had to book our dinner reservations with the guest services at Grand Bahia because the kiosk nor the guest services at the luxury weren’t able to do it. This cost us a day of not being able to book dinner reservations. Then once we did the restaurant couldn’t find our reservation and attempted to turn us away for the 2nd day in a row. We ended up having the manager at Grand Bahia physically walk us back to the restaurant to get us seated. This was a major drawback to even upgrading. Overall all the staff were very helpful and Ingrid at the spa gives an amazing massage! I liked the food choice variety and the rooms were huge. Would recommend and stay again just give people all the details if you suggest upgrading so we can get the full value from day 1.

I went here by myself a friend recommended it and I wasn't disappointed. I'm going again in April and I can't wait the pool bar and buffet are both great the staff are amazing can't wait.

I don’t usually write reviews because they often tend to focus on negative experiences. However, I do enjoy reading the positive ones—and this is definitely one of them. We just returned from Bahia Principe Grand La Romana, and I have to say that of the 20+ all-inclusive resorts I’ve stayed at (more than half of them in the Dominican Republic), this one was by far the cleanest and had the most wonderful, friendly, and accommodating staff I’ve experienced. A special shout-out to Jose, Cindy, and Oskar, who made our stay especially pleasant and truly treated us like family. Kudos to the management and staff of this resort. You can easily tell they genuinely care about the guest experience. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

El servicio muy bueno

El aire acondicionado de todas las habitaciones súper malos,la playa súper oscura porque está junto a un río ,los cuartos muy antiguos

El personal muy amable, las instalaciones están muy bien por el precio pagado

Está algo lejos de todo, solo debes estar en el resort, si eso te gusta está perfecto. Las tumbonas son insuficientes para la piscina y la playa la arena está perfecta, el agua en el sector algo turbia
