General Comments

My wife and I had our honeymoon at the Bahia Principe, we found this to be a fantastic resort, that we didn't want to leave, even when forced to by our tour operator. I should explain, we stayed here for a week with fantastic service, great food, a lively nightlife and a great beach too. However 8 days into our holiday, we received a letter through the door warning us that hurricane Jean would pass over the Dominican Republic in less than 10 hours. Unfortunately, the hurricane had changed track and neither the hotel or tour operator could have foreseen this. After a rather exiting 2 days we were offered an emergency flight home with a full refund, however as it was our honeymoon, neither of us relished the thought of a return home, so after an argument with our rep who advised us otherwise we stayed.
After the clean up, which the staff took about a day to complete, we found that we were in an almost deserted resort and had the best time ever! I would recommend this hotel to anyone wanting to savour the Caribbean on a budget.
Look out for del boy on the beach, he sells para-sailing, waterskiing, banana boat rides and will make your dread-lock holiday come true!
