    My stay at Bahia Principe was enjoyable and memorable. Every staff member I encountered was courteous and always had a smile. Drinks was plentiful and food was always coming. My choice of dining were the Buffet Bars. Mainly because I had a choice of whatever I wanted. My favorite Buffet of all was JAZMIN. It was quiet and welcoming. All servers at JAZMIN was awesome. One staff member stood out and made our dining experience always pleasant, her name is CHUDI ANN JOHNSON. She made us feel as if we were part of the Bahai Principe Family which we now are. We will miss each and every staff member, our room attendant, bell hop KHRIST FORRESTER, SHEVESHA NELSON, TAKHEKA BLACK, STACEY HAWTHRONE, SASHANA SPENCE, SOPHIA CLARKE. WE CANNOT FORGET THE LANDSCAPERS. BOY! THOSE LAWNS AND PLANTS ARE A SIGHT TO BEHOLD. THANK YOU GUYS ALL SO MUCH FOR A MEMORABLE VACATION.

    My Recent Visit to Bahia Principe, Runaway Bay

    We had a wonderful experience at the Bahia Principe Resort in Runaway Bay, St Ann. This property is quite large but that did not take away from the experience. The landscaping was beautiful. Rooms cleaned daily and refreshment and towels replenished. Our favourite restaurant was the Jazmin Buffet restaurant. We found the supervisor, Chudi Ann Johnson and the team there extremely cordial and they made sure we were always ok. On a whole I found the staff members at the resort very warm and very helpful with a desire to make each guest feel welcome. We will surely stay at this resort again.

    Great job of Refreshing and Renewing the Resort

    This review of Bahia Grand Jamaica (BGJ) is based on a trip my wife and I took from 1-FEB-25 thru 11-FEB-25. Also of note, we have stayed at the BGJ on several occasions and are basing our review comments on the resort over time. BGJ has done a great job of refreshing and renewing the resort. Several notable updates include: The main buffet restaurant Nyam, The Round Island Food Market, The Jerk Center, The Knife Restaurant and Updated room décor in parts of the resort. These updates show an effort by BGJ to keep the resort a top destination in the Caribbean. Like for any resort, there are some areas of improvement. 1 - With most BGJ trip reservations you have an opportunity to make dinner reservations at À la carte restaurants. There are a number of excellent restaurants to choose from so make sure to take advantage while there. However, the reservation system for the restaurants is an absolute disaster. You are pointed to (1) Kosk in the lobby or using the Bahia App, but good luck making a reservation. The only way to attempt making a reservation is with the Customer Service agents in the lobby. This process is slow and cumbersome. Bottom line Bahia you have to fix this! 2 – One of the absolute gems, of any resort in the Caribbean, is the BGJ Sunset Bar. Unfortunately, Bahia has failed to recognize this, and the bar has fallen into disrepair and is closed. If I was BGJ I would stop everything I was doing and get the Sunset Bar opened ASAP. Review Summary – My wife and I have been winter vacationing in the Caribbean for almost 15 years. The cost per value proposition with BGJ can’t be beat. The property, restaurants, food, entertainment, beach, accommodations are on par with the best resorts in the Caribbean. Awards – Now for my yearly awards to the staff at BGJ. The two categories are “Lobby Customer Agent” and “Restaurant Server”. Lobby Customer Agent – Treshana N. Restaurant Server - Yanesh

    Disappointed guest

    The hotel no doubt is huge and rooms are spacious but bathroom is down in the dumps. Shower heads do not work and despite complaining nothing is done about it. On check in day the lady who served us did not smile at us at all and had an attitude about her. She was being difficult when we requested 2 keys for the room door and did not give us the second key. She made us feel very unwelcome. We experienced same attitude with the staff who served during breakfast. We were made to wait a lot longer for our coffee compared to American guests. This has totally put us off this hotel. We will not recommend this hotel to our friends and family. Staff should not have an attitude and each and every guest should be made to feel welcome especially as the country heavily depends on tourism.

    Stay away from this resort!

    If I could have rated it lower,I would. Worst resort EVER.We contacted the resort by phone to arrange a semi private car from airport and paid $96 USD.The semi private bus made 7 stops (first red flag).Our check in with Tracy was a joke,minimum information given,so we had to figure out on our own (with A LOT OF WALKING!!!) towels,booking a la cart,and she was full of attitude.Our room had not a spec of literature to help us find our was around.Every day the cleaning got worse,we had to call every day for more towels and Kleenex.The second last day,didn’t clean toilets,no clean water glasses and I phoned 4 times for Kleenex (never did get it) The 2 a la cart we booked were pathetic,the Japanese was so bad,we had to go to buffet later to get cheese and crackers because we were still hungry (our server was Sophia),she was mediocre at best. Our second a la cart was the Italian restaurant,and it was worse! With reservations waited a long time to be seated,and probably waited 25 minutes before our drink order was taken,and then to be told they were out of beer🤷‍♀️🙄 The appetizers were served family style,but the y didn’t have all the courses available:( The food was not good. The buffet was where we decided to eat after that.Often running out of many different dishes.I could go on… I want to end on a high note,the pool area is very nice,but a VERY LONG WALK TO THE WASHROOMS(and the pool snack bar was disgusting,Best server in resort was Kevoy in the buffet,thank god for him,btw,anther staff member stealing his tips DISPICABLE!!WE WILL NEVER GO BACK AND TELL EVERYONE WE KNOW TO STAY AWAY!!!
