We stayed at Gran Bahia Premier from April 1-8, 2013. The resort is absolutely beautiful and so well maintained. Rooms were very clean and updated and cleaned every day, please leave a tip daily as the maids work very hard for very little pay.

Very nice property - very well maintained and clean. The beach was great. The food at the buffet had lots of variety. We went to Mexican, Italian and Mediterranean restaurants for a la carte dinners. The only thing that I did not like about this is that starters and dinners at the a la carte restaurant were buffet style -... More

We were very early for check in (11:00 A.M.) because we wanted to have the whole day at the resort. Jonathon told us our room was vacant and it would be ready in 1 hour. Our... More
