Disappointing honeymoon stay. Many amenities weren’t available, staff seemed disengaged, and our room wasn’t clean. We later learned the hotel was recently sold and will close in 2026 for renovations—explains the lack of care. Not as advertised! Felt bait and switched. Will not be returning or recommending.

Overall I rate it a 4/10. Food is okay. They cook the same thing everyday so that gets old. The property is very old so our shower broke off the wall, the outlets stopped working so we didn’t have a way to charge our devices in the room, and the tv stopped working multiple times so we have to make many request to have the maintenance man come reset it. The worse part was the housekeepers had the worse attitude I ever experienced. I guess they just hated their jobs because they often rolled their eyes or ignored us when we asked questions! The entertainment crew was lit! They were very friendly! Definitely wouldn’t recommend and will not be back!

Avoid at all costs. Our stay at Bahia Principe Jamaica was a disaster from start to finish. Check-in was chaotic and painfully slow, even after a long travel day with a toddler. Our upgraded room was filthy—torn sheets, stained bedding, unstable furniture, and totally unsafe for a child. The resort is not stroller- or wheelchair-friendly, making it extremely difficult to get around. Despite being "all-inclusive," we were limited to two dinner reservations in six days. The buffets were unsanitary, with flies everywhere and poor food handling. We even saw a waiter hide wine in a flower pot. Staff were rude, unhelpful, and couldn’t answer basic questions. Complaints went nowhere. The resort also sells day passes, leading to overcrowding, trashed pool areas, and constant marijuana smoke. By Day 3, we left early and paid out of pocket to stay elsewhere for the sake of our child’s birthday. Don’t waste your money or your time here. I have so much more to say, but not enough room to share our full disappointment.

The Bahia Principe Grand Jamaica was wonderful. We stayed in a standard room, the room was clean and spacious.The staff were very attentive in the restaurants, and provided recommendations on drinks and food. The food was great, and there were many options. I would recommend booking a la carte restaurants before you arrive, as the reservations fill up. We tried the restaurants Picasso and Takara and both were amazing. The pool and facilities were always clean. There is something to do for everyone.

This hotel is lovely if you get the area where it has been renovated. Unfortunately we were not in this area and the hotel room was fairly average. We did also have some problems with the room including no conditioner in the bathroom, missing half a curtain, being in an adjoining room which meant we heard our noisy neighbours come back late at night, waking us up. It took several attempts at asking to finally get some conditioner and a curtain (into the 3rd day of our stay). After not receiving it on the 4th time of asking, we did do a review on their website which seemed to work as within an hour we had a follow up call regarding it. Unfortunately this follow up call also continued for the next two morning at 7.34am (we hadn't slept late the previous days due to the missing curtain!). It was extremely frustrating. Overall the staff are lovely in the restaurants and bars etc. The food was nice however quickly became very boring as it was the same every day - with a hotel this size it would be nice to change up the food and offer different things each day. The other themed restaurants were lovely, however it was frustrating that we were only allowed to go to three in the course of our 1 week stay as most evenings they didn't even appear half full. The pool and view itself was great, however the renovation of the hotel just lets it done and in my opinion does not match up to the 5* rating. I certainly wouldn't be prepared to pay full price to stay here again.

Hello my recent stay at Bahia Principe Grand Jamaica, was not what I expected. The customer service, cleanliness, and food options all declined significantly. I saw roaches at the Jerk Shack (behind the wall of the grill), our suite had hair in the bathroom, cups, plates, food left in the hallways. This was not the Bahia I experienced just last year during my stay. As always there was some staff that stood out and were very pleasant and helpful Marcell (pool bar) Diana(pool waitress, Remi life guard and David the yoga instructor.
