We spent 9 days of our vacation here, of course, a 12-hour flight is very tiring, given the time difference and adaptation, we concluded that the next time you need to fly for at least 14 full days. As for the hotel itself, I have mixed feelings. We flew in from Vnukovo, of course, like all guests, we wanted to move in as soon as possible and forget about everything. … More ▾ We spent 9 days of our vacation here, of course, a 12-hour flight is very tiring, given the time difference and adaptation, we concluded that the next time you need to fly for at least 14 full days. As for the hotel itself, I have mixed feelings. We flew in from Vnukovo, of course, like all guests, we wanted to move in as soon as possible and forget about everything. Before us, literally at the reception, there was a hitch with a Russian couple who were given a room in building 70 and they argued for a long time about being given another room. We were a little worried, decided to play it safe, and ask for a room closer to the beach, with the help of $ 30 we succeeded, we lived in building 62. There are no complaints, everything is fine, the room is huge with 2 beds, which is strange, why there are two full double beds in the room, except for families, but the hotel with the category 18+, in general, Christian children are wonderful. We decided not to fool our heads and just slept peacefully on the same bed, joking about the "alternate airfield" in case of a quarrel. Later, when we studied the territory, we realized why everyone dislikes distant buildings so much, they are in close proximity to the buildings under construction, respectively, it will be noisy, dusty and uncomfortable there. And what seemed strange that, when we settled after the first couple, there was a free room in our building. Perhaps the staff is trying to earn extra money in this way, or settles people according to their own preferences "like it or not. " So, the sediment, of course, remained. In my opinion, a significant deterioration in the quality of accommodation should be expressed in monetary terms (rooms should come at a discount, maybe for some tourists who plan to come to the room only to spend the night, this will not be important). But to settle people against their will there is wrong. The territory of the complex is huge, very green, the birds sing, Playa Bavaro beach is very picturesque, large, the sand is clean, fine, soft, very pleasant, I liked that no one bothers you on the beach, you can relax peacefully. Right on the beach there is a bar and snacks, during the day you can take whatever you want. Music plays national or dance music by the pool, so that it is not boring just to lie down, during the day the animators always offer to participate in activities: aerobics, yoga, dance lessons, even cooking shows). In the evenings, good, high-quality events are held in the theater: magic tricks, live music, various musical parody shows, we liked everything. As for food, I want to say that there is enough of everything here - the kitchen is on the level. We talked with Russians who come here not for the first time, some noted that the cuisine has become worse, I can’t say that - we liked everything. Despite the fact that this time we had an all-inclusive vacation, we were not too fond of gluttony, we tried to enjoy nature more, so I won’t write about the frills for a long time, in my opinion it was all-choose, I don’t want to. As for the outside life of the hotel, from the sightseeing nearby Manati Park, and took several excursions (2 Bananas) to Saona, Santo Domingo, and fishing. In general, I liked the holiday, if you have any questions, I will answer.

The hotel is perfect, the room is excellent, they are cleaned twice a day (once thoroughly, the second time getting ready for bed : )) I can’t write a single negative about our stay at this hotel, everything is at the highest level. Upon check-in, we chose villa number 84 on the 3rd floor, right in front of our villa there was a pool - jacuzzi, my wife and I started our route - jacuzzi - pool - ocean and back, just in the evening we returned. … More ▾ The hotel is perfect, the room is excellent, they are cleaned twice a day (once thoroughly, the second time getting ready for bed : )) I can’t write a single negative about our stay at this hotel, everything is at the highest level.

We will definitely return to this hotel.

First time in the Dominican Republic. Emotions are still running high. To begin with, my girlfriend and I were very lucky, we were settled in a room with a class higher than what we booked, almost a suite, so there are certainly no complaints about the settlement and the room itself.

A little disappointed that there is no wi-fi on site. But even here we found a way out. The first 24 hours are free internet throughout the hotel. Further, we learned from the staff that you can download the hotel application in the app store and you get ten minutes of internet for free throughout the hotel, and you can download this application an infinite number of times. So throughout the rest we posted the most beautiful landscapes of this paradise on Instagram. I would like to evaluate the food separately, no coolest hotel in Turkey, Egypt and Greece can be compared. Resting 5 times a year, believe me, there is something to compare. The rest was overshadowed only by the presence of algae in the ocean, but even in this there are no complaints about the hotel, hard workers, this cute cheerful staff cleaned the beach from this misfortune even before dawn. To be honest, I swam in the ocean three times, but I went on unforgettable excursions to the Caribbean Sea. It is a paradise. I will definitely return! Wait

I wanted to spend the Christmas holidays “like in the Bounty ad”. Friends advised the Dominican Republic and the Gran Bahia Principe hotel. We read the reviews, looked at the photos, calculated our financial capabilities and decided to take a chance. And… we really enjoyed it. Photos and descriptions are available on the website of the Gran Bahia Principe hotel (http://www.bahia-principe.com/ru/). In fact, these are 4 Gran Bahia Principe hotels. They differ in distance from the beach and the level of service. Luxury Bahia Principe Esmeralda (the newest hotel) and Luxury Bahia Principe Ambar (only from 18 years old, no children). The Grand Bahia Principe Punta Cana and Grand Bahia Principe Bavaro are a bit more modest. All 5-star hotels have their own pools and their own beaches. The area of ​ ​.4 hotels is total and huge. There are 3 routes for electric vehicles. The beaches are great. On our first visit to Gran Bahia Principe, we met an employee of the Bahia Principe club, Eloy Pineda (Russian speaking). He invited us to the presentation of the Bahia Principe club. The presentation ended with our entry into the Bahia Principe club (signing of the contract). In addition to the contracted weeks of rest, we received a free certificate for one week of rest at any hotel of the Club in our “own” season. The certificate was valid until June 2014, so we went to May, adding a contract week to a certificate week. We were offered when booking the hotel Bahia Principe Ambar. We agreed, but at the presentation we were shown the rooms of the Esmeralda Hotel (a new hotel) and we wanted to live in it. Tip: When visiting the presentation of the club, they give gifts (compensation for the time spent on vacation). If there is a choice of a present, take an Internet card for 7 days, you will be with the Internet everywhere on the territory of the hotel, even on the beach (so it seems to cost $ 40). We settled in the Luxury Bahia Principe Ambar (Ambar) hotel in accordance with our booking. On the first day in the barn room, it turned out that the TV was not tuned (it was not possible to find our channels). We turned to the reception, it was difficult to explain what we want, but as a result the TV was replaced for us the next day. There were complaints about the untimely restoration of the “resource” of the minibar and the establishment of the cleaning time in the room, these issues were settled in two days. After 3 days, we decided to try to move to the Luxury Bahia Principe Esmeralda hotel (Esmeralda) (at a similar cost), but these are new buildings and closer to the ocean (building 90.91). We turned to the service of the Bahia Principe club, they did not refuse us, but as soon as a suitable room became available. They turned (for old times' sake) to Eloy (Eloy Pineda - an employee of the Bahia Principe club). He carefully listened to our “wishes”, wrote it down, and after dinner on the same day we were offered to move to the Esmeralda Hotel. We were surprised at the efficiency and cautiously decided to first look at the room. Eloy himself took us to see the new room (he completely satisfied us) and after 15 minutes we were already in Esmeralda. It was very nice to have such an attitude towards us! We did not have a language barrier, because if we had any questions, we turned to Eloi, and he helped us. Esmeralda's pros: All rooms are new (beds do not creak, all room decoration is in "white" style). There are rooms for accommodation with children (two-room suites). Closer to the ocean. Cons: In the Esmeralda buildings, unlike the Ambar, there are more rooms (more people), there are children and there are many of them (this is good, but not always). Cana is friendly (this is important! ). Individual employees seek to learn Russian on their own. I want to highlight the attitude of Eloy Pineda, an employee of the Bahia Principe club, to the case. He was a real help with our hotel accommodations and departures, even at the airport. He knows Russian very well, he solved all our problems in accordance with our wishes. We recommend tourists from Russia to contact him in case of problems in Bahia Principe hotels (Eloy helped us DONATELY). Suggestions for improving the service (if they are of interest to anyone): 1. At the airport of Punta Cana, at the counter of the Bahia Principe hotel, it is advisable to install a telephone to contact the hotel reception so that there are no problems when meeting if you do not meet a transfer or a plane delay. 2. It is advisable to increase the staff of Bahia Principe hotels with knowledge of the Russian language. 3. Determine, together with vacationers, the time of daily cleaning in the rooms and require staff to strictly adhere to this cleaning time. We will be glad if our opinion helps someone to make the right choice.

This was our honeymoon! Arrived there the next day after our celebration. The tour operator - Biblioglobus - is the worst of all the tour operators that we used. The meeting party Biblioglobus (Marina) drove us to the hotel for 3.5 hours. That's horrible. Our hotel was the penultimate one. Seeing each one to the hotel on the road for 40.30 minutes, we counted on the same farewell to us. As a result, we were brought exhausted after the flight and a long journey to the Bavaro Hotel and were told that we should go to some stop where trams would take us. We were just "stunned". In general, they got on their own. Thanks to Biblioglobus and Marina.
Finally reaching the reception, we were given a room on the ground floor with 2 beds at the reception. And this is for the newlyweds! ! ! After explaining the problem at the reception, an urgent replacement of the room was denied, allegedly due to lack of availability. And the tour operator promised that this is a wedding hotel.
In addition, I had a birthday in 1 day, and even an anniversary, a round date! As a result, we did not receive any care, attention, and even the slightest surprise. I think how many more big events have to happen for something to happen (wedding, anniversary)? . And at the reception about it was said. As a result, our number was changed only after 3 days ...thanks to my perseverance. So keep these points in mind if you are planning any kind of celebration.
But since we are already adults, and we came to relax and enjoy life, we decided to simply ignore these little things! ! ! Now about the hotel.
Rooms:
very spacious, comfortable. Our second room was on the 3rd floor, which has a great view and does not smell damp. The room has a mini-bar free of charge and a coffee maker with a set of tea and coffee. Very comfortably. Large balcony, simple bath.
As for cleanliness, I do not understand those tourists who grumble about the number of times, how many times a day they changed towels ...We did not come for this. But in general the room was cleaned and beds made 2 times. We always left tips. The maid performed such luxurious towel swans for us, always with fresh daily flowers. Very cute.

Nutrition:
the central restaurant is excellent, a huge variety of dishes: fish, suckling pig, meat, turkey, fruits, vegetables, etc. Loved the real beef steaks and the abundance of fruits and fresh juices. At the bar, all European drinks are free. In general, everything is fine. They offer to visit restaurants to choose from: Japanese, fish, Mexican, etc. So: I DO NOT RECOMMEND TO ANYONE!! ! !
1. stand in line at the order table
2. Offer the latest and most inconvenient time
3. You will look for this restaurant, because the territory is huge, and the map cannot be trusted.
4.
There is only one menu in the restaurant: you choose 2 appetizers and 1 main course, 1 dessert. All. No choice.
5. In the end, you will return running from this nightmare to the Central Head Restaurant.

Territory:
to say big is to say nothing! Just huge! They rode trams. The card that is issued at the reception is even more confusing and uninformative for the philistine perception. Hotel for adults, no children. Every evening we went and went for a walk to neighboring hotels of a single network, to shows and just like that.

Ocean:
the most wonderful memories, very warm 29 degrees, relatively calm, always rumbling, green. On the beach, sunbeds with umbrellas made of palm leaves. Often couples with children from nearby hotels came (there are practically no umbrellas on their beaches), but no one drove them, and the kids behaved very worthily.

Excursions: took 2:
1. Santo Domingo. 85 USD/person Lighthouse Columbus, external infrastructure of the Dominican Republic. Nothing special.
2.
Island of Saona - 125 USD/person I recommend this one. Beautiful nature.
In general, all guides are very, very weak, they can’t speak 2 words, they don’t tell logically. All from the Russian Federation, but live 2-3 years already in the Dominican Republic. The level of training is very low. And the price does not match the impressions received.
Now it's important: our tour operator Biblioglobus (Marina) said that the tourist gathering place "Three palm trees" is a monument in the center of the Punta Cana hotel from 3 palm trees. And the highlight is that exactly on the other side is exactly the same one-on-one Bavaro hotel with exactly the same reception and the monument "Three Trees with Leaves". These are 2 copies of the halls, differing only in monuments, and then they are similar, like 2 drops of water. We had a lot of fun before the tour! ! ! And not only us. There were many such tourists. The tour operator needs to be told about this that there are 2 identical halls of 2 different hotels nearby, which practically stand back to back. So keep this in mind too.

Experienced Tips:
one.
Be sure to bring shampoo and conditioner with you. the water is very hard and the hotel does not provide anything good.
2. Take a first aid kit with you. Medical care at exorbitant prices.
3. All the charm of excursions in the Dominican Republic is in the beauty of places, islands, and not in the stories of guides. Excursions are expensive, take the money.
4. Do not go outside the hotel, there is a lot of robbery.
5. On excursions, visit local shops. What can be bought?
- rum Barcelo for 17.5 dollars
- cigars, coffee, cocoa
- excellent natural shampoos and hair masks from cocoa.
- coconut oil for the body. SUPER! ! ! Only 5 dollars.
- Natural creams from turtle fat. $12.38 Liked it very much. Cocoa butter for the face - 14 dollars.
6. Don't expect super service from Dominicans, because that's exactly what they are.

In general, all the negative impressions were associated with the arrival (the fault of the tour operator), but in general the Dominican Republic is a paradise country!
Rest and impressions - SUPER! For couples without children, I strongly recommend this hotel!

We returned from vacation a week ago, I am writing a review in hot pursuit, while the impressions are still fresh in my memory. The hotel is wonderful, beyond praise!

The hotel is wonderful, beyond praise! Everything that you dreamed of getting from a vacation, you got it! We prepared for the trip for a long time and thoroughly, because we bought a ticket on credit from the travel company Unitours and we really did not want to pay off the loan for a vacation that we would not be satisfied with. Fortunately, the managers also took the selection of the tour seriously and helped us choose this hotel.
I'll start with the beach. The beach, sand, palm trees, clear water - everything matches the pictures in the brochures. There were plenty of sun loungers, so there was no need to book a seat in advance.
The food is excellent. Breakfast is very satisfying, a large selection, everything is piping hot, fresh and hot. Freshly squeezed juices of several types, with pulp. For lunch and dinner, the Swedish table is simply bursting with the number of dishes, and most importantly, everything is delicious, for 10 days of rest we didn’t even have time to try everything, but we really wanted to!
The territory is beautiful and very green, everywhere palm trees, cacti, flowers.
The room was in very good condition and kept that way by the staff throughout the stay. They cleaned, replenished shampoos, soap, changed bedding and towels every day.
You can write a lot about the hotel, but in fact everything corresponds to the description on the Internet and magazines. Very high quality 5 stars.

Rested in this hotel from August 26 to September 8.2012. Gran Bahia Principe Ambar 5* I'll tell you briefly about the hotel all the pros and cons. I’ll start with the carrier Transaero, the company gets worse and worse every year, launching such a plane is a mockery of people, you can put your feet behind your ears, since there are places only for short men, and the food is slop, well, we suffered for 11 hours because it’s a trifle, small retreat. … More ▾ Rested in this hotel from August 26 to September 8.2012.

I'll tell you briefly about the hotel all the pros and cons. I’ll start with the carrier Transaero, the company gets worse and worse every year, launching such a plane is a mockery of people, you can put your feet behind your ears, since there are places only for short men, and the food is slop, well, we suffered for 11 hours because it’s a trifle, small retreat. Now about the hotel, the hotel itself consists of hotel complexes of the same chain - Amabar, Esmiralda, Punta Cana and Bavaro. We rested in the Barn, we got a chic Delux room, there are no complaints about it, this hotel is super for newlyweds, they are greeted with rum, fruit and small presents, it was very nice. The territory is huge, green and well-groomed. The food in the restaurant of our hotel was varied, every day was themed, I really liked what they cooked with me, the pasta was super, there were also seafood, but somehow it was not right, although lobsters were served and shrimp and crabs everything was, that is breakfast, lunch and dinner were chic, there was always something to eat, by the end of the vacation we got a little fed up, and so we were satisfied with the food. I’ll tell you about the advantages of the Barn, those who choose this particular hotel, with this bracelet you can eat almost everywhere, they wanted to go to Punta Cana, Bavaro or Esmeralda, we went a couple of times, we wanted to go to the beaches of these hotels again, don’t want to eat in the bar on the beach of our hotel, we went to the Punta Cana snack bar, with our bracelets everything was possible. About the beach, again, a plus of our beach, we had umbrellas at almost every sunbed, Bavar and Punta Cana didn’t have this, they were all in the open air, and I’ll tell you that even cream won’t help you, the sun is very aggressive. Esmiralda had umbrellas, but there were a lot of children there and there was no silence there, it was quiet and calm, even from other complexes they came to us. Another plus is that only persons after 18 are allowed into our hotel, you will appreciate it later, that is, it weeded out American youth who came to drink and eat drugs, such freaks then settled in with us, but I was even surprised, a call to the reception that the neighbors are noisy, and security immediately appeared, explaining that in this hotel there SHOULD BE SILENCE and everything became quiet and calm (it was pleasing, you are waiting for this year - silence and tranquility). Let's go back to the beach, everywhere the entrance to the ocean was good, though all this was replaced by waves, then quietly, then there were no algae. But still swam enough and the ocean was warm and gentle)))
Like everyone else, well, almost all the newlyweds, we decided to arrange a second wedding, or rather a wedding photo shoot and I will briefly tell and warn those who decide to spend it there. We have been preparing for this for 3 months. We agreed with the organizers about everything we want, discussed everything with the photographer and waited for this day. I’ll tell you right away how you want it to fail, one factor is how not to discuss and don’t bring pictures of what you want at the exit, everything will turn out through one place, the Dominicans are lazy and our Russians simply cannot get results from them, that’s all we got. If you decide to book a salon, it’s not worth it, everything floats from such heat and it’s better to just tint the cilia and highlight the corners of the eyes, that’s EVERYTHING!! ! Take a light dress, because in half an hour everything flows and floats and you want to URGENTLY take it off and plunge into the ocean. Flowers brought us such squalor, we were in shock for a long time, the words to tint the flowers in this country are not like in Moscow, they stupidly fill them with paint from a spray can and everything is ready, and they didn’t give a damn that the flowers were starting to wither. Discuss EVERYTHING to the smallest detail and demand a contract if you decide to do everything yourself. If you want to entrust this to your tour operators, then I can also warn them that everything is banal and simple, but here you need to take a guarantee for the photographer, our friends from the Tez tour then spat before leaving, received a disk from the wedding and laughed and cried for a long time - 5 photos out of 450 is all what happened is normal, the rest is what it was and filled in without editing and did not even bother. So, before you want to do all this a hundred times, cock everything and think over and shake everything from the photographer, since they generally throw it in a terrible way, we were generally shocked by ours, not professionalism and per, even our own pictures when they arrived home, they knocked out another 2 weeks, although they say that 3 days and the work is handed over, although they gave the money right away (DO NOT give the money right away, no matter how good the photographer seems, leave half for the sake of which he will come and give you the work). Well, again, these are trifles, it would be better if they didn’t arrange anything and rested without nerves, but in fact everything didn’t turn out the way you want and sometimes it doesn’t depend on you, but depends on unscrupulous photographers whose sea is there and organizers who really can’t satisfy a whim and what they are paid for, too. Well, in general, that’s all, though it didn’t work out in a nutshell))))

We rested with my husband in September in the Dominican Republic, since this amazing country is famous for the same weather all year round, unlike, say, Asian countries.

Thanks to the tour operator "Sanmar" for help, we quickly found the right tour and booked tours. It turned out to be easy enough. A rather convenient tour search system appeared on the tour operator's website. We stayed at the GRAN BAHIA PRINCIPE BAVARO hotel. We were given a villa on the third floor not far from the main restaurant and a stop to the sea. Very convenient in my opinion. Everything is at hand. The number itself is impressive. Shower cabin and Jacuzzi bath. Hairdryer, iron and even a coffee machine in the room. The minibar is free, water and beer replenished every day. There are two Russian channels on TV, First and STS. Sometimes we watched the news. The air conditioning was always on, even when we left. At night, it was switched on to the so-called Easy mode. If you want to lose weight or on a diet. You are not here))) Joke! When you enter the restaurant, you are greeted by girls with dazzling smiles in national dresses, with a glass of cold Sangria or Champagne. With regards to food, the cuisine will not disappoint even the most capricious gourmet. 15 kinds of meat, 10 fish. Sushi was every day, seafood. I really liked squid carcasses, overeating. Tiger prawns, oysters, octopuses. Throughout the territory of palm trees, bananas, coconuts, shrubs, flowers, and a smooth, even lawn like on a golf course. BEAUTY!! ! The road on foot to the beach takes about 10 minutes slowly, who does not want to go, can sit on a car and it will bring you straight to the ocean. You can talk and write a lot. To say that you just liked it is an insult to the country. This is an earthly paradise, with sincerely kind, smiling, incendiary residents. By visiting this country, you will give your loved ones a wonderful emerald fairy tale that you will remember for many, many years. You will forget about the fuss, about all the problems. As if through a portal, you will plunge into a parallel world, where the sun is all year round, where there is white sand with palm trees, a gentle turquoise ocean. Sanmar met our expectations - everything was great!

The best choice of the entire complex for those traveling without children! Children are not allowed to live in the Barn, choose Esmeralda. These two hotels are on the first line, the rest are further from the sea. In addition, they are distinguished by a higher level, including food with drinks.

The food is delicious and quite varied, poured in general everything that your heart desires. Sweets just didn’t catch on, but the fruits saved the situation))
Room cleaning is regular, I would even say, a little intrusive) Replenishment of the mini-bar every day, after the tip, more chocolates were left with the wish "Good night. "
The territory is huge, green, there is where to walk.
The beach is gorgeous, a lot of sunbeds and umbrellas, under which you can hide from the scorching sun entirely. It was necessary to take a sunbed right on the shore early in the morning, and a place could always be found a little further from the water. In the pool, this was more difficult, but not always.
The only thing we were not lucky - on the third day, algae rose and swam in the water until the end of the rest. But this, of course, is not a minus for the hotel, but our luck... The main leisure is walking along the endless beautiful beach. If you walk to the left side of the hotel for a long time, hotels and people end and desert beauty begins. Take pictures without people as much as you like)
The only minus of the Barn (minus for us, plus for someone) is its silence. During the day in the pool for 2 weeks, only a couple of times the animators tried to make noise. And so only drunken Americans and Spaniards were noisy) But in principle, if you wish, you can go to the neighboring hotels of the complex and take part in contests and games.
Beautiful evening shows. Songs, dances, circus and more.
Disco so-so. But if you're in a good mood, you can dance there until you drop)
In general, we are very satisfied with the hotel. Like the Dominican Republic. An informative and interesting excursion to Santo Domingo, but it's hard to walk in the heat. Be sure to go to Saona! Also a very interesting and beautiful tour.
