Myself, husband and two kids (9&11) stayed at the Bahia Principe from May 12 to 19. We really enjoyed our time there! Everyone has there likes/dislikes and we had ours, but all around, we had a great time and would recommend this resort to anyone. Bring facecloths, there are none in your bathrooms. If you go snorkeling, take some bread...

First and foremost do yourself a favor and DO NOT LISTEN TO ANY OF THE NEGATIVE REVIEWS. I too for one turn to trip advisor for feedback from other travelers and base somewhat of my decision on it. For starters I cannot believe all the negative stuff people have said previously about this resort, staff and etc... . Here's some...

I can't believe the negative reviews on the GBP - the people who are complaining about this resort must have been expecting the ROYAL treatment = being hand fed peeled grapes and staff following them around with portable air conditioners 24/7. This is my 3rd trip to JA and was GBP was my FAVOURITE (over the RIU mobay and Grand...

I chose this hotel because of our stay at the Gran Bahia Principe in Punta Cana but was hugely disappointed. We did not get the same high quality service as we did in Punta Cana - the wait staff was a very disgruntled bunch, from the buffet to the al la carte restaurants - they were extremely rude and unattentive...

The resort is gorgeous & well kept. The house wine inclusive in the rate was undrinkable - it had turned. The food was excellent at all of the restaurants. Service could have been better at times but overall very good. The terrace entertainment was horrific with the singers doing mostly sad love songs! We came to jamaica for Jamaican music...

DO NOT listen to anything she said. I went in March and disagree with everything she complained about. I agree it was not the nicest beach I have been to but had a great time. The service was good, the food was good. The place was clean and the rooms were large and well appointed. I really had no complaints...

I travelled for the first time to Jamaica and was initially excited about my first experience. My husband and I had no idea how disappointed we were when we arrived. We were not welcomed at all! The front desk first served us and then moved on to another customer without finishing with us. We were not directed to our room,...

Stayed at the Gran Bahia Principe from May 15 - 22. All in all this resort was amazing. The resort was spotless, room was extremely clean. Staff was kind, friendly and always smiled and said hello. Food was plentiful with lots of choices. The beach was beautiful as well as the pool. Nightly shows were very entertaining and fun to...
