Bahia Principe Luxury Samana

Back for a second time.

Reviewed By Gorf

Celebrated our 46th, April 24th. Once again the food was varied, bountiful and tasty. The drinks were delish especially the caesars with Clamato. Resort was super clean and sanitized regularly. The staff are to be commended. Considerate, professional, funny and compassionate. Staff at all levels went out of their way to make this a very memorable and relaxing vacation. This was our second time and will not be our last. Please tip all staff as they work long hours always with a smile on their face.

Dissatisfied and disappointing

Reviewed By darlenec904

I was so excited to bring my husband here to experience for the first time a all inclusive 5 star resort. I was disappointed at the quality of the food. One morning My kids wanted pancakes....the pancakes where undercooked and hard. The white rice was oily. The fish salty. I was told the wine comes in a bag..which makes sense why it tastes horrible. To make it short the food is not great at all. I was also upset that they hosted one of their night shows but there was not enough chairs so we ended up sitting on the floor with our kids. When I asked front desk and Public relations if they could bring over plastic chairs from the other entertainment areas they said no. I told them it's very disappointing to know that my family and I paid for luxury 5 star service and they have us sitting on the floor when they can clearly make an exception to accommodate their guests. So overall friends I wouldn't see this resort as a 5 star resort I would come with the expectation of a esthetically appealing resort on the outside but in reality more of a 2 or 2.5 star resort. Most of the staff is very nice. Specially entertainment staff and house keeping. Restaurant staff not so friendly. Sincerely room 26211 Thanks

Fantastic Beach Front Hotel!!!

Reviewed By Debra100

I rented two three bedroom apartments for a family vacation in May. The hotel is beautiful, clean and well maintained. Everything was perfect from the bottled water provided, to the clear/clean pool and gorgeously landscaped grounds. The made to order breakfasts were outstanding! They also had plenty of fresh fruit, pastries, breads and freshly made juices. All of the staff were friendly, helpful and professional. I travel several times a year and frequently stay at high end hotels, this one is a gem, I highly recommend them!

Villa Serenity is where to go if you’re not into big resorts but you are into beautiful grounds by the sea, morning yoga, sipping fresh squeezed juice under the Caribbean sun, and want a break from whatever your daily grind is. The owners had a vision and the good taste to build the villa in traditional West Indies style. Rooms are airy and designed to catch sea breezes. Hammocks dangle on the balconies. It’s not hard to imagine yourself as well-to-do visitor the the Caribbean of the 17th or 18th century, albeit with a mini fridge and A/C. The small but lively town of Las Galeras is walking distance from the hotel. You can hire a boat to pick you up from the hotel and drop you off at Playa Rincon for a beach day.

We left Belgium and arived on may the 22th. After a 3 hour drive we checked in. We booked premium but the next morning I noticed we did not aquire the room we requested. We got a double deluxe seaview room. Time to call our travel agent, She arived the next day and got us a bungalow It was a little larger but a bit overcome. the people are friendly but not very accomadating. The premium rooms we booked were nort available Because it was low season. The premium bar at the premium pool was closed and all premium drinks were under the brand name Classico. The restaurants were only open on certain days and this was not announced. The sportbars was closed and rundown same as the restaurant at the beach. The animation is available when there are enough people. Sadly the animation team did not anounce this and did not warn people where and when it could happen. I booked especially for this, I cannot keep stil very long. The animation was short and uninspired. Mostly they were entertaining themselves Sometimes even arguing among themselves. There is a list behind the towelservice but just with the hours. Sadly he animation team barely showed up on time. The food is limited with the same food served day after day Be there as early as possible or you might find some food missing. The food in the restaurants are just a tad better but lack flavour or seasoning. If your late some food may be served tepid or cold. Don't expect fries we only saw them once. For some reason our electricity failed twice and the signal of our television was lost as well once. Getting info at the lobby can be tiresome for in the evening the persons are inexperienced. Keycards can be a hassle they loose their magnetism very fast. had to run to the lobby at least every other day to get them to work again. Complaining seems to make them surly. Now some good things about this place. Very nice and long beach, Beautifull garden, Relaxed atmosphere. Snorkeling is limited but you can see some fish if your patient. I saw barracudas ,seaturtles seaurchins, seaanemone and some starfish. There are some crabs as well.

Great vacation at Todo Blanco

Reviewed By CIR1960

If you are looking for a quiet place where to disconnect from the stress of urban life and to get immersed into an ebullient landscape of beautiful beaches surrounded by lush farmland and mountains, Todo Blanco is your destination. My wife and I spent a great week there. Making the stay more pleasurable was the proverbial Dominican hospitality of the team: Samely, Esterlin, Angelina, Cielo, Rafael, Kenny and the chef Ameury, led by the hotel's superb manager Emilio. Thank you all of you for your impeccable service. We look forward to visiting Todo blanco and Las Galeras next year! Claudio and Marcia, from New York City.
