Keep your eyes on your things at all times!!!! My Ipod, cell phone, camera, video camera, and cash were stolen within the first hour at the hotel. I left my bag on the golf cart that drove us to our room for no more than 2 minutes by the time i ran out the room to look for the guy... more

My wife and I got married the week before in Antigua and wanted to do something after our honeymoon with a couple of our best friends so we took off to the DR for another week. The flights in were fine and the trip to the resort was easy. As most of you know the Ambar is the adult section... more

This is what I liked; Nice grounds, nicely appointed lobby, peaceful. Room for improvement; Transport - The resort is an add on to the other two Grand Bahia so is quite spread out, necessitating the transport trolley to move you about to areas like the entrance of Grand Bahia. The trolleys are infrequent and often don't have enough seats for... more

Although the trip was not terrible, I would not recommend this resort or island. There are many other beautiful places in the world to visit. The resort is large - seperated in 3 sections: 1) punta cana, 2) bavaro, 3) ambar (adults only). We booked the bavaro but were placed in the ambar section. Apaprently according to the mangement, it... more

We returned yesterday from the Gran Bahia Principe Ambar. We had a great time and we thought we would share our feedback. We were in Villa 67 which overlooked the Ambar pool. It was right beside the pool, steps from the beach and beside 3 restaurants which made it very convenient. We rarely had to go anywhere else. It was... more

The surroundings are stunning. The beach is amazing. The weather was so hot. We had a marvellous time all in all. However, I can relate to some of the negative reviews here. Some staff were rather rude and unhelpful, but we made the effort to be cheerful with them and the next day the same staff could be smiling and... more

If you enjoy being in a tropical setting with diarrhia,stomach cramps,nausea and vomitting this place is for you. Although the resort is beautiful and the breach is very nice it's a poor tradeoff for the abdominal torture you will experience. Beware of the food you eat!!! It's day three of my return and still have the runs!!! I have travelled... more

We were booked to stay 7 nights at Ambar, but requested to be moved after two nights. This resort is not at all what we expected and we were overall disappointed. The experiences we had while there definately didn'tt fit in with the image that is given of the resort in their website or brochures. This is an add on... more

I just returned from Gran Bahia Principe in Punta Cana (literally yesturday). Before I went on this trip with my boyfriend I, like i'm sure many of you read the reviews posted (especially the bad ones) and to be honest after reading them I did not want to go. HOWEVER I AM SO GLAD I DID. We booked the trip... more
