My husband and I stayed at the Ambar from July 7th to the 10th. Short stay, but it was a fun getaway with three other friends. We arrived and did not get a towel or welcome drink, but the front desk staff was friendly. We went straight to the lobby bar while our other friend checked in. I ordered a... more

My husband and I arrived in Punta Cana on 07/05/2008. Much to our surprise when entering the Punta Cana Airport we were required to pay a $10 charge per person to enter the country (not a large fee, but something you should know). We did not book transfers to the hotel on this trip, but we easily found a taxi... more

We visited the Bahia Ambar from June 22-29, 2008. This was our 12th visit to Punta Cana and our first stay at the Bahia chain. Most of the resorts we have stayed at in Punta Cana have been five stars, so we had certain expectations going in as far as service, food, etc. We enjoyed a lovely vacation and had... more

My boyfriend and I stayed at the Gran Bahia Principe Ambar from June 22nd-29th and we both agree that this is a fabulous resort. We booked the vacation after receiving a recommendation from our travel agent, as well as many reviews from Trip Advisor. Hopefully this review can help some of you make the decision to stay here as well,... more

The Bahia Principe Ambar is a wonderful, luxurious all inclusive resort if you like a nice, quiet, relaxing vacation with an excellent beach and great food. My boyfriend and I stayed here during the week of May 24th to 31st, 2008. The beach at this resort is beautiful with white powdery sand and clear turquiose waters. Like many resorts, you... more

Gran Bahia Principe Ambar Adults Only Resort in Punta Cana: Warning, very long review!!! Stayed: June 15-22/08 My boyfriend and I (both in our twenties) decided to take a last minute trip to the Ambar in Punta Cana. The price was great (only 1700 CDN for the both of us with tax included) and we could not pass up the... more

I'll start by saying that the people who complain about this resort were obviously looking for things to complain about (we actually met a few of these people when we were there...and avoided them). This was a fantastic resort. My boyfriend and I (in our late 30's) just returned from a weeks vacation and found it nothing short of spectacular.... more

We stayed at the Ambar from May25-June 1. We picked this hotel because it was new, adults only, and a 5 star. Well, we were extremely impressed. It is by far the best all inclusive we have been to. And we would go back in a heart beat. Food- The buffet was amazing. My husband is an incredibly picky eater... more

My wife and I stayed at the Ambar from June 01-08. First off I just want to state that this was an awesome vacation at a fantastic, clean, well serviced and beautiful resort. The more I hear people complain the more I wonder why people travel. Stay home, have pizza and relax. This is not North America and that should... more
