The only major problem was the drinks and food, like many others said. All cocktails were oversweet. Mojitos were disgusting. The food at the restaurant was ok for me, but the choices my girlfriend picked up were bad. The other problem we found was that besides the free wireless internet service in the lobby, there was only 2 computers available... more

This was our 5th visit to the Gran Bahia Punta Cana (2nd to the Ambar side). Three of those trips being in the past year. It is a wonderful resort, beautiful grounds, great staff (sure there are always one or two that are less than pleasant - but they were a minority). We have visited other hotels in PC and... more

We went south for the first time in summer. This is a lovely place and the upgrage to AMBER was worth it. Curiously the bus from airport is plastered with "pay the upgrade" placards. The resourt in summer had no problems getting access to the specialty restaurants, though the italian and seafood ones are not both running each nite. The... more

My husband & I visited Gran Bahia Principe Ambar from October 31st.-November 5th. Our trip started out just like a Halloween as American Airline cancelled our flight so we arrived there at midnight instead of early afternoon. The resort is very huge, almost unbelievable but very beautiful and well maintained. Our room was quite big and clean. The small mini-bar... more

I have to full agree with a review I just read from ShamrockMississauga. We were at this resort Nov 7-14 2009 and stayed in the Ambar section. We were part of a larger group there for a destination wedding. The resort itself is kept orderly and very nice and the main areas (pool/lobby/beach) were always clean. The beach is fantastic... more

We stayed one week Nov 8-15 and it was wonderful. I'll try not to repeat what others have already said so just believe all of the positives! Other things to note: -they had hand sanitizer everywhere - how great! -all food was washed with filtered water and ice was also made with this water -we never had any stomach issues... more

Just returned from Gran Bahia - Amber on Nov 14th. Was expecting to rave about this Hotel as a result of the reviews I had read. The Ambar surroundings and lobby are absolutely magnificient as also the rooms which are very spacious. The grounds are exceptional but the food and the drinks are the worst I have ever encountered in... more

we are in our 40's and go south twice per year to different carribean islands and resorts, so we have alot to compare. we thought the grounds and resort were both beautiful and especially appreciated being so close to the pool and the beach. we were at building 64 which is centrally located. everything was close to walk to and... more

My husband and I went on our honeymoon just returned yesterday after spending the week at the Ambar. As this was our first trip outside of the US we were not sure what to expect, but Punta Cana had been recommended to us by many family and friends. The ride to the resort was made me a bit nervous because... more
