Exquisite Culinary Experience

“During my stay, I had the pleasure of dining at the various a la carte restaurants available at the resort. Each meal was a delight, and I appreciated the really good service at places like Don Pablo and Picasso. The offerings were diverse and delicious, especially the jerk chicken from Los Olas, which I craved every day. Dining was truly a highlight of my vacation!” view full review

I had a lovely time at the hotel, where the pool area was well-maintained and the beach was inviting for a relaxing day under the sun. The rooms were spacious and clean with nice views, but I found the dining options somewhat repetitive and lacking in quality. It’s a great option for a value stay, although some aspects like service and food quality could be improved.

I had a fantastic stay at Luxury Bahia Principe in Jamaica. The hotel offers great service and delicious food, plus the entertainment by the pool was enjoyable. However, the beach on the luxury side is a bit small, and I did hear of some customer service issues that could be improved. Overall, I would definitely return for the incredible experience!

I had a mostly wonderful stay at this resort! We enjoyed the beautiful ocean views after switching our room and the food was definitely a highlight. However, the beach bar's cleanliness was concerning, and noise from the party pool could be disruptive at times. Overall, it felt like a good value for the price considering the amenities.
