EVERYTHING WAS PERFECT
the beach in front has a lot of waves maybe due to the windy period
4.0
Sehr ruhig und angenehm
Es ist kein 5 Stern, bestenfalls ein 3,5 Stern. Eco bedeutet nicht nur keine Strohhalme zu den Drinks sondern auch das Abstellen des Motors des Fahrzeuges, das mit offenen Türen und eingeschalteter Klimaanlage vor dem Hotel steht.

location relaxing
service at the Maine buffet was not great most of the time
5.0
Hotel location is separated as it seems and thus very quiet.
Beach is super clean and beautiful. No sales people in the whole hotel area (besides the travel guides in the hotel lobby that guests can approach if needed).
At the beach you can enjoy the sound of the sea, while the pool area offers a great animation program and music.
The hotel offers an outstanding view to the sea. Chance to see some whales if you are lucky (bring binoculars).
Free shuttle to the close by Baccardi Island.
Food is delicious but not suitable if you have any food allergies. Allergens are not labeled at all. Also, no guidance from the kitchen staff. Lobby staff and guest relation promised help, but nothing happened even after multiple approaches.
Only one shop in the hotel area, which is pretty small and expensive (bring enough sun screen, snorcheling equip, etc.)

Too bad for the excellent location and hotel complex, and the partially nice staff - because it lacks the basics, hospitality.
What a shame that the hotel lacks the basics - a hotel management to make you feel welcome, respected and safe. The hotel policy and some of the staff behave unprofessional and respectless. Socially highly respected persons of my family could not enter and were told to stay out, even that their short visit was communicated by us at the reception quite some time ahead. My two family members had to wait in their car halfway in the street till i arrived, still being refused to pass to solve the matter. Awkward, even dangerous. I checked out of the hotel immediately after this unfriendly and offensive treatment, among other, I started to be also worried for my safety and comfort. Asking for a reimbursement for the 2 additional nights already payed - booking come supporting my complaint - I am still waiting for any answer/excuse of the hotel more than 2 months later. A Bahia Principe Hotel in the DR had already some heavy problems 2019 (tourists dying suddenly, see published newspaper articles in internet) and the matter seems not be clarified till now. I recommend presently not to go in any of the Bahia Principe hotels till their unprofessional, respectless and intransparent policies are changed.

Absolutely amazing experience. Attentive and friendly staff made our stay enjoyable. The location of the hotel is unbeatable with view on Samana bay. It has a private beach and a free of charge transport to the nearby cayo levantado island. The rooms are clean and well maintained. We fell in love with the hotel and its location so much that we decided to prolong our stay for a few more days. The food was great and diverse and the service was impeccable. there are plenty of different cocktails and local premium drinks included in the all inclusive offer. The hotel threw a wonderful dinner and experience for new year’s eve. everything was magical. We are already looking forward to repeating our stay next year.
I’m very happy with the overall experience, I must mentioned that before my stay I read a couple of worrying reviews about food intoxication, this has nothing to do with hotel food, if you have a sensitive stomach just avoid drinking tap water and ice and you’ll be fine.

All of the food was well prepared. I did NOT like the fact that the snack area by the pool had food uncovered and a TON of flies helping themselves to the food. That was the first day. I did not see too many flies at the regular buffet area but still saw some. The hotel is very beutiful and the staff maintain the cleanliness which is not easy when it rains.
I think there needs to be plastic covers on the food that you can open and help yourself when its in the open area. I think when you check in someone should tell you what there is to do and how the restaurants work-the fact that there is only ONE open per night, NOT 3. Did not like having to ask for ice for the room instead of getting it ourselves-one time it took ½ hour to receive it. Did not like having to wait for my room when I did the online check-in days before and stated that we would arrive between 2-3; we arrived at 3p and it still was not ready. We had to ask if we could go eat because we had not had lunch. We are property owners of the chain Bahia Principe but when we presented our ID it meant nothing to the staff. We were supposed to received a steady check-in as its part of our benefits. Not even sure if we received the other benefit which was a discount on the room. When I asked they said my room was already paid for- I assumed because we used Booking.com. The hotel is not good for those who can not handle stairs. The amount of stairs to do anything was relentless. This hotel is basically only good for a romantic get-a-way as it very small. We usually stay at a 5 star rated hotel and are made to feel special. We did not feel the 5 start experience here.

The Sea View. Very friendly. The employees who worked at the front desk very polite and professional, all waitress are very friendly and welcoming.
Having travelled for the last 2 years throughout the Caribbean mostly at The Ritz- Carlton Hotel and The Excellence hotel chains we decided to take a chance with the Bahia Principe Luxury Samana. Two days at the hotel I was sick with severe diarrhea and cramping, so much so we had to seek treatment from the on site doctor which we had to pay for as the hotel would not accept any responsibility. Now five days in I am getting the same symptoms. Others at the resort have complained with similar but not as severe issues. This resort does not take the preparation and handling of the food seriously enough. Also I have informed the resort of several occasions noticed by not only myself but several other guests that glasses were being reused at the pool bar that were not cleaned after someone else had used them. They did not address the issue at all. I have never written a bad review on any other vacation but felt compelled to warn people about this hotel. There are several issues with management, staff, and service. Please be careful if visiting this resort. This resort does not warrant the risk.

I love the location. There was an amazing view.
Staff was very careless and never gave straight answers to our concerns. Health and safety concerns like open buffet with flies flying over the food and worms in sink. Me and my husband actually got sick. Also there was no reassurance of safety measures before hurricane Fiona so with all that we checked out early before the hurricane hit the country.

The location, the staff made sure we were happy, the food was great. Only thing... since I was there in June, I wish there was partial air conditioning in the dining areas. Besides that, I really enjoyed my stay and will be back!
Enclose part of the dining areas and add A.C.
