Grand Bahia - Bad Management
ZHfromOttawa (Ottawa, Canada) on Jun 04, 2025
Bad management and faulty advertising led to a frustrating couple of days. The good: One of six adjacent Bahia resorts (the main one). Cater to families, with many pools and nice buffet options on the be...ach. Some of the à la Carte are Excellent. The upgraded version of this resort (Amber) is nice and much better. Location is a central beach in Punta Cana, surrounded by other resorts. 30 minutes' bus ride to the airport. For the WestJet Vacation package, the transfers were included. The electric ride between the Lobby and the beach (10 minutes walk) is great. Staff are mostly friendly but not always. The Bad: Rooms: 1,400+ rooms, about half of which are from the stone age (over 30 years old) with no workable Wi-Fi, questionable plumbing issues, no working fridge (barely working), and one working electrical plug (far away from the beds, as the location predates iPhones). The other half are (Premium rooms), modern and well-equipped, and meet expectations. This was not disclosed when Expedia advertised the hotel. Beach: Mountain of Seaweed. Bahia chose (do nothing), where Riu next door was actively cleaning. It was about a 1 KM walk. The beach width and sand are narrow and not the best for a walk Pools: Super nice pools everywhere. Grand Bahia has 3. Nicer pools are also available at sister resorts (Bahia Amber, ...); however, the memo for access to all pools (as advertised) was not distributed to staff. Staff of neighbouring Bahia resorts were not welcoming. Grand Bahia is the economy version, where everywhere else was an upgrade. Reminder: Expedia rated Grand Bahia as a 4.5-star hotel. Pools were sometimes overcrowded and not always clean. A member of the group developed an ear infection from the pool water. Food: Nothing super fancy (except some à la carte), but there is sufficient selection. Avoid The Truck (pool restaurant) at all costs. It serves uncooked meat, cold fries, and has a limited menu, with truly horrible service (the worst I have seen in a resort). This is again Poor management and not staff issues. Services: As you can guess from my review, I was not happy with the room, particularly with the WIFI issue when I have teenagers. Here is my experience: (Three days to change the room, although I was willing to pay for the upgrade, the reception desk called at 7:00 AM to tell me to come and see them at 10:45, the Staff were having a loud and heated argument at 3:00 AM if front of my room. When I was finally told ok to upgrade, I was told Go check the WIFI in the new room and tell us if oK). In brief: Bahia - NEVER AGAIN. Punta Cana Never again between April and OCT)
