The views from the balcony of our room were very nice. We could hear the waves from the ocean when we woke up. That’s the positive. The negative: It says parking is available, but that’s a stretch of the truth. There are a few spots available—maybe 10–but it’s first come, first served. No reservations accepted. We stayed three nights and were never able to park there. Where can you park? On the street if you can find a spot. We looked and looked, without success. You can park at the mall for 35€ a day. Next—breakfasts and dinner are included and the dinner was bad enough that we only ate there once out of three nights. Next—the cleaning service knocks on the door and opens it at the same time. They saw me in my bra a few times, as I had no warning. Maintenance came to fix the tub (that wasn’t broken and I didn’t call them) and just keyed in at the same time he knocked. He saw me naked. Should also note that this is a place that caters to small children. It’s full of kids having fun, crying, screaming, etc. I would not stay here again.

Great value clean and friendly stay
Excellent stay. Great value. Food was great staff friendly. Loved it when staff showed you to a table rather than the usual all inclusive scrum to get seated together. Food refreshed frequently and wide variety to suit picky kids. Hardly any queues to bar. Ok the lifts are a bit slow but if that’s the negative …. Definitely visit again

Food was good, pool area well taken care off and staff in the pool bar area well helpful and very friendly. The lounge bar often had queues in the evening thought the staff worked very hard to keep things moving. Didn’t like the fact that only local spirits on offer for all inclusive and full price charged for branded spirits. Other hotel I have visited charged a supplement not full price.

Big and uninspiring
It’s a huge complex which was catering mainly for older and mainly German people. The staff were friendly. The lifts: only two out of three worked. In a full board or half board hotel like this the food was of poor quality. I suppose if you want lots of cheap food, this is the place. It’s a little out of the old town but is set near some fine coast with surfers enjoying the great waves.

Very good food, great service and friendly staff. Room very big and comfortable with great views. Clientele older so entertainment was focused on the older generation but still pleasant. Entertainment staff very friendly and really gave us great attention. Hotel location is fantastic, close to everything you could need.

All the staff were brilliant. Nice to see so many smiling faces. They all worked extremely hard to make our stay special. The spa is wonderful and should be compulsory on the first day as it prepares you for a relaxing holiday. I can't praise the team highly enough. Thank you so much.

The staff are very friendly and helpful, there was some building work going on at the hotel, and it we could hear drilling in the morning. There was also building work in the neighbourhood. Great location, the hotel is on the seafront and you only need to cross the road to get to the beach. It is at the end of the promenade and easy to get into town. The only other draw back was the air conditioning which was not having much effect, so we had to sleep on top of the bed as we were too warm.

1. At the time of the hotel reservation, free parking was guaranteed, in practice 10 Euro per parking day. 2. We ordered half board, actually at dinner demanded payment on all types of drinking including water. These two issues spoiled our stay at the hotel.

No lifeguard on duty - dangerous!
I was watching my 2 kids in the pool since the lifeguard was not there when another kid running next to the pool slipped over the wet floor. His mom came to the rescue, but nobody else from the hotel came. When I went to look for the lifeguard, she was at the towel booth giving out pool towels to hotel guests. I asked her in Spanish what she was doing there since she had the lifeguard t-shirt on, and she said the front desk manager told her to be at the towel booth and watching the pool at the same time. 2 jobs at the same time?. She was annoyed that she was told to be at the booth when children were at the pool. She also told me she was the youngest employee in the hotel. She was sorry for not being at the pool when the child fell. Amazing that they have someone that young doing 2 jobs: lifeguard and serving pool towels. I wonder if that falls within the safety pool regulations in Bahia Principe hotel.

All-inclusive rip-off and irresponsible front desk
I purchased all-inclusive (breakfast, lunch, dinner and other meals/perks). When I arrived at the hotel and wanted to place a reservation for a theme restaurant dinner included in all-inclusive, the front desk told me that I needed to reserve at least a week in advance. A week? we were going to be there for 4 days only. So we missed it even though we paid for it. In addition to that, I was charged 20 Euros for parking outside (10 E fee and 10 E deposit). The deposit was refunded but not the 10 Euros fee even though parking was included in the all-inclusive. When I told the front desk, they actually denied that I paid for parking and they never returned me the parking fee. Amazing! I felt powerless because the front desk did not even listen to me, he kept cutting me off and saying that the payment was not in his computer system. In summary, a bad experience my family and I had at this Bahia Principe hotel. I would not recommend this hotel to my worst enemy. I also put a sad face for cleanliness because of the constant sewer bathroom smell. Totally disgusting. And of course, the front desk would not change our room because it was all full, even though I could find rooms available online. Where does Bahia Principe find these front desk people to hire? Do they train them to be polite with their customers?
