One of the best resort experience in Jamaica
This was our second time at the resort and we absolutely love it. The beach is the best way to spend a day with your family. The staff is great and we enjoyed all of the parties at the resort. I would recommend Bahia to all groups from singles to large family groups.

My experience at Bahia Principe, Runaway Bay
The resort is beautiful, courteous staff all around, the wide array of food and drinks, the pools are just right for every height person. The rooms are spacious and looks brand new. Overall a splendid place to vacation. I give it an 11 out of ten.

Not a choice for all inclusive
The hotel is sub par. Of all hotels I’ve stayed at, this is the first one where the key stops working 3 times since I’ve checked in. And I tried to open my door 3 times. The front desk staff attitude around the issue is that the phone is causing this. Again, I’ve stayed at a few other hotels before and not one like this. The cleanliness around the hotel could be better. Very little options for food and entertainment for all inclusive.

Decent Hotel
I stayed at the Grand Bahia Principe in December 2024 and I had a pleasant experience. Overall, I liked the food. It surpassed the quality of other hotels in the same class, such as RIU Ocho Rios. The variety and taste, particularly at the Jerk Centre and the Pasta Station in the main buffet lounge, stand out. The swim-up bar was another highlight. My room was spacious, and the staff were pleasant and accommodating. The view from the room’s balcony definitely adds points to this review. The beach, while nice, was slightly underwhelming compared to other hotel beaches in Jamaica. The entertainment started off a bit lackluster but did improve as the days went on. The hotel is enormous, so be prepared for a lot of walking. Fortunately, there’s a golf buggy service that helps guests move around the perimeter if needed. My overall experience was that this is a decent hotel. 7/10.

Bad staff and rude but amazing location with the best Brazilian restaurant
From the moment we get to the hotel amazing friendly welcome, we get to our room luxurious side , room very clean, good size large, bathroom large and amazing view balcony. Reception very nice people friendly, about bar in lobby busy but if you don’t tips people they totally ignored us, and very unfriendly, the same things happen on the on few of the restaurants, but the best restaurant was Brazilian where we meet amazing staff they done everything you to get the amazing experience. Thank you to Chrystal and her hospitality. Overall we been amazing experience in Jamaica but not the best , definitely I will think before to go again to Jamaica. I m part privileged club and I been in all Bahia and I get all the time amazing experience and make me to go back but in Jamaica but not the best experience and staff very rude. Most of the restaurants where we been the food was not so great and the staff very unprofessional, long waiting, or un tested food. Resort location amazing but staff need some help to know how to serve with the costumer’s and not just if they get tipsy.
