Great staff and great facilities all the staff was very friendly and helpful, the sports bar with Carlos the manager, Viena, Alta Gracia, Adriana, Robert and Franklyn they were all great, the buffet and the a la carte restaurants were great both the food and staff. Check in was quick, check out was a breeze, the after check out facilities are super convenient. The only issue is that guests at the Esmeralda don't have access to the Fantasia.

I did not like that all of the restaurants were booked prior to getting there. Did not get the dining options we wanted. Service at some of the restaurants was very slow. Grounds are immaculate and very clean. Very big resort.

Property was dirty. Staff rude. Dress code not enforced at restaurants. Smoking was permitted everywhere even in areas where it indicated no smoking. Getting a chair at beach or pool was impossible unless you get up at 5am to reserve chairs! Horrible experience!

This property is next to the beach. Less than 3 minute walk from any room. Food is amazing and pools are clean, fun and beautiful. There is nightly entertainment and lots of areas for walking and shopping if you need anything. We love Bahia Príncipe in Punta Cana. This was our 5th family trip and we plan to return every year as long as we can. There is something for everyone - even teenagers.
