Average stay. Check in staff and customer service training could be better. Language barrier seems to be a predominant issue. kitchen serving staff is great, relatively more options for vegetarians. It looks like the property has given a great platform for Indian food for the buffet although it’s executed poorly. Probably one of the worst Indian food we have had in a resort like this. Nans are as brittle as crackers and Bhatura are thicker than pizza crust. Curries were served cold on the buffet table, most curries tasted the same. I don’t believe the chef is trained properly. Another setback was to find out dining in restaurants aren’t included for each day of your stay, it’s half the number of days. In our case we stayed 5 nights and got to pick the restaurant 2 days- that’s included. Any more reservations will cost you money.

The dinning areas were very hot, even the a la cartes with closed doors there seemed to very little air conditioning. Eric and Dominico from the activities were so much fun and they did an amazing job of engaging everyone. I love the big bottles of shampoo, conditioner and body wash. An amazing thing to add would be body moisturizer in the same format.

Overall a great resort. Lots of options for food and Al la carte restaurants. The buffet also had lots of options including vegan and gluten free food. The staff was really friendly and there were lots of activities on the resort. The entertainment was also very good. The beach was nice but a little rocky and we were there during the time when there was a lot of seaweed which they did a good job removing as best they could each day. There was also a great little market but it was a bit expensive. We had a great stay!

Other than that hotel was very nice people nice. The food was good. I wish I had known you can go to the other restaurants in the other properties before the end of my trip.

If you are looking to be secluded, then this is the place for you. It is a very nice, large property and I love the fact that you can move between their sister resorts. But honestly, if it wasn’t for that, I am not sure if I would have enjoyed it here as much.

Bahia Principe Grand Tulum was a beautiful resort to stay, we upgraded our room and the only issue was we couldnt use the jet tub since the drain plug wasnt working and a door issue which they fixed promptly. It is a very large resort so any room requests such as towels, water typically didnt happen when requested. Besides that the resort itself was fantastic, the kids club must have been great since our kids didnt want to leave. A few people that stood out to make our experience that much better was Yoda part of the entertainment team and Hugo from the Tequila Mexican restaurant.

Overall very satisfied with the property. Many different areas to spend the day at depending on what mood and vibe you are looking for. Lots of activities during the day and night around the pool and in the theater. Buffet was very good. Lots of options for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. A la carte dinners lacked a bit. Expected more from the Mediterranean restaurant. Japanese and the Grande Tortuga were average. Definitely felt safe walking around and staff always made us feel welcomed. Would definitely recommend this property.

The property itself was stunning. Housekeeping and wait service were fantastic (particularly Emanuel at the buffet). However, when we first arrived, the check-in clerks were unfriendly and unhelpful. Certain things I'd like to clarify for others so they may make an informed decision before booking in Bahia. It's a massive complex with three properties, each with a levels. The lowest level is Coba (which has a terrific water park and several decent restaurants), the middle is Tulum, and the highest is Akumal. The water parks for kids are incredible and are definitely the resort's highlight. On a side note, the beach isn't particularly swimming-friendly. Sand area is small, with a rocky entrance. We went with my mother-in-law, who is in her 70s, and my three-year-old kid, and they put us on the third floor. Normally, I would not have thought to request that my room be floor accessible, but the resort does not have elevators. So after the first night, she was unable to get up and down the stairs. The air conditioner in our room also broke the first night we were there, making for a tough first night. So, after dealing with the front desk, saying they can't assist me with either of my complaints. The supervisor, Rodolfo, was helpful and was able to convert our 2 reserved rooms into floor level. The hotel only allows 1 meal reservation for every 2 days of stay. This information is significant because the hotel's rooms and amenities are not clearly described.

Thank you for asking. My experience with Bahía Príncipe Grand Tulúm was absolutely great. I can’t say the same about my booking with Expedia. The problem was my transportation from Cancun Airport to the resort and back. It was not clear on the Expedia website during a booking process that I need to book my transportation separately. During my previous all-inclusive trips to Mexico with other companies, I never encountered into that kind of problems. The transportation always was included. That problem has caused me a significant emotional distress at the Cancun Airport and additional cost for a private taxi. I also didn’t feel safe giving the recent warning about American and Canadian tourists kidnapped in Cancun area. Also, there was no Expedia representative at the Bahía Príncipe Grand Tulúm or other Bahía Príncipe resorts. Thanks one of tour agents of the resort who helped me with transportation back to the Cancun Airport on my way back home.

This was a terrible experience. They provide the most basic rooms. The rooms are tiny and dirty. They were not honoring any of the VIP benefits including room upgrades, not premium services. I am very disappointed and I will rethink booking using Expedia going forward as hotels are not honoring VIP benefits.

This was a great all inclusive resort for our family, with many food options/bars everywhere, mulitple pools, and entertainment. The room was spacious and kept very clean daily. It was easy to get extra blankets or whatever we needed (e.g., more drinks for fridge delivered when we asked at front desk). We were on the main floor in building 8 (room 0804) so it was easy to walk anywhere or catch a trolly. The beach was easily accessible and both pool and beach had lounge chairs but be sure to secure it early as finding one mid day is near impossible. They also could have more umbrella options as it was quite hot the days we didn't have shade. Staff were very friendly and helpful (most of them anyway!). Good location for getting to Xel-ha park and Tulum ruins.
