This was my first time I used my privilege club membership. And all I can say is OUTSTANDING. I booked my transfers thru the club, OUTSTANDING SERVICE as well. When we arrived we were taken to the privileged lounge, very, very nice. Great staff, quick check in, everything was great. It was my partner’s birthday they had the room decorated for her, very nice. The room was beautiful, nice cold air conditioner, refrigerator worked great, always stocked with beer, water, soda, room was always cleaned, great job to the housekeeping. The grounds on this place a gorgeous, the staff is always cleaning or doing something to make it beautiful. Beach area was always nice and clean. The waiters would always make sure we had something to drink. Always. We stayed in Ambar 2 which is a little further back from the beach, BUT they are always running golf carts continuously
all over the resort that you never have to walk. We never had to wait long.The restaurants and the buffets are great, so much food to choose from. Very good. Iam in the privilege club and I didn’t know what to expect. All my needs and more were exceeded. Great job to everyone that works hard at this resort. The resort is beautiful, the people are very nice, the rooms are big, and the food is good. Great resort. Privilege lounge staff keep up the great work, you were so very nice and helpful, Great job to you. I will come back to this resort again.

Thank you all for your service.

Overall I would say this all inclusive resort was good. The beach had pretty sand, tons of beach chairs, and the water was pretty--could be seaweedy but people were raking constantly and you could walk up and down the beach for miles to find crystal clear water. The excursion to saona island was the highlight because the water was unreal and there were speedboats and catamarans. I wasn't crazy about the food--the all inclusive meant a lot of ethnic food and a lot of buffets. We made reservations for dinner everynight and that was a necessity to get variety. My complaint would be that the staff didn't force people to move their towels from the pool chairs or beach chairs so people would leave them overnight and even going out by 700am all the good seats would be taken. I wish they would remove towels left at the end of the day. Overall, good resort, decent food, nice beach, good staff.

Room tip: ask for a room near the beach because the resort is so large you could end up a good ways walk away from it

We have just returned from the Luxury Bahia Ambar and could not have been more impressed.

The hotel room was spacious, clean, comfortable and decorated nicely. The grounds were exceptionally maintained with luscious Palm trees and Caribbean flowers making the resort feel like paradise. Adding to that, the beach was maintained beautifully and any rubbish or seaweed was removed by the excellent staff every day. The food was good, sometimes a little cold but plenty of selection and the Al la carte restaurants offered great choice away from the buffets. The staff, well what can I say, they really make you feel at home. They are incredibly friendly and helpful and there for your every need. There is great entertainment with something for everyone.

We absolutely loved staying here and felt like we were in paradise the whole time. Its great to be in an adults only resort but with the other hotels on your doorstep, you can still use the other facilities at your desire. We used the buggies to move around the resort in the mid day heat but despite its large size it's easy to walk around, too (once you find your bearings).

We had the most perfect holiday and are already talking about returning next year.

You can never go wrong with the Bahia Principe Resorts - great food, great service!
Many of my friends have gone to their line of resorts in Mexico, Jamaica, etc. and absolutely loved them all! The only thing that is out of the resorts' control is the weather lol

Very clean property - rooms were very large - comfortable beds - liked this resort because it was adult only - security was very strict to ensure only guests were on the property and no kids - all restaurants were good - especially liked the steak and italian

Room tip: we were in building closest to beach and pool and it was excellent and close to everything - on the main floor - no elevators

First of all I think this hotel is very beautiful with well kept gardens all over, the room is very big and lovely the bath we used just the once because the water that comes out of the jets is extremely dirty. But other than that I can't fault the room. Very clean rooms thanks to the cleaners.
We stayed in ambar 1 but much preferred ambar 2 the pool there is a lot nicer and newer with a more relaxed vibe compared to ambar 1, also the sun beds are more comfortable in ambar 2. The beach here is nice although I was disappointed with the sea as its not as clear as it looks in the photos it's very merky. We eat at most a la cartes and would recommend, garden grill, rodizio and the Mexican all very nice food and good service. The buffet also has a good variety. Did 2 trips which broke up the holiday well, outback safari and Caribbean cruising both very good trips and the beaches on these two trips make the beach at the hotel look rubbish the beaches there are what you expect from the carribean.
All in all I enjoyed my stay here.
