If you are traveling w/o kids the upgrade for Ambar is definitely worth it. The beach/pool are just a short distance. The wireless internet connection in the Ambar lobby is pretty spotty (I don't think the staff knows how to reset their router) and it only works well once in a while. We repeatedly told them about the issue (as... more

We have traveled extensively throughout the world ; the negative review posted here is not a reflection on staff but rather managements' poor customer service policies. It took our family three hours to get booked into our rooms. Whenever we had a problem ie. romantic dinner canceled as they had double booked : it took hours to correct the situation... more

I just returned from Punta Cana after staying for a week, 10-23-09 to 10-30-09. This resort is wonderful. Everything was just what you would expect from a 5 star resort. The room was lovely and always very clean. The maids and butlers did an outstanding job to make our stay as carefree as possible. The restaurants were all good with... more

Our objective was to relax with great service, good food, nice beach and clear water. Due to the total site size of the Gran Bahia Principe (Punta Cana (708), Bavaro (540) & Ambar (528) totals approx. 1776 rooms, by shear volume difficult to obtain attentive service. Your wrist band determines how much of the site you have access to. Green... more

I spent Oct. 23- 30 at GBPAmbar. It was a wonderful week. Please keep in mind the following 3 thoughts as you read my review: 1) The place was about ½ occupied 2) Everybody’s taste is different. 3) Bad things do happen to good travelers. SUMMARY: I never experienced: bees, long lines at the computers, flies on any food, sandlfeas,... more

We were two couples and words cannot do justice to the great time we had there.My wife and I had already vacationed here 2 years ago, but in the Bavaro section. We loved it then but were very glad we booked at the Ambar section this year. The resort has changed... more

My husband and I and 2 friends went to GBPA Oct 2-9. We’ve all been to Punta Cana before. Although we wanted to try Jamaica for a change, we decided to return to DR because of the price and availability to book at an Adults only resort. In my opinion if this is your first trip down south you would... more
