"We had a fabulous time the entire week! From the food to the entertainment, Bahia Principe did not disappoint. We absolutely loved our trip and accommodations."

"This hotel was good and clean. It had multiple pools but most importantly for me it was located on one of the best beaches I’ve ever been too and I been to many other beaches in the Caribbean and Mexico. The food was good although I wish they had more options on a daily basis. The key was to be there"

"Staff doesn’t seem happy to be serve anyone. Money seems to help if you tip heavily. Limited selection on buffet if you have to eat multiple meals. "

"This resort stands out as the premier budget-friendly option in the Cibao zone, particularly for families. While it offers high-end dining and exceptional staff service, the aging accommodations are a notable contrast to the high quality of the amenities. Key Highlights: Family & Kids: The resort excels with a dedicated kids' club featuring GPS safety trackers and a passionate staff. The water park and pool "bubble parties" are major highlights, though management should consider adding safety barriers on curved slides and a snack station near the gym area. Dining: Food quality is impressive for the price point. The buffet is well-organized, and the à la carte options—specifically the Greek and Rodizio restaurants—provide a high-end culinary experience. Amenities & Staff: The staff across all departments (drivers, servers, and entertainment) are supportive and professional. The beach at Portillo remains a top-tier feature for its calm, pristine waters. Areas for Improvement: The rooms are the primary drawback; they are functional (hot water and comfortable beds) but look dated and are prone to maintenance issues like AC leaks. Additionally, guests should be aware that on-site convenience stores carry high markups. Verdict: Highly recommended for families or groups seeking a cost-effective, high-service escape in Samaná, provided you prioritize amenities and location over modern room decor."
