We booked through West Jet Holidays and they have since rebated us for the flights. To date Bahia Principe Samana has been unavailable. The holiday was for ten days and I wanted to go home on the 3rd day. We went so we could see the Humpback whales and that was great but everything else was terrible. The language barrier... More

We travelled to this resort in 2010; it was the first trip we had ever taken south. After having travelled to other countries and resorts since then, we are really pleased that we chose this one as our first location. The hotel and grounds are beautiful, the drinks and food were great. I enjoyed the buffet far more than the... More

This was a wonderfully relaxing holiday. We travelled Feb 3-10th, 2013 and the weather was wonderful!! Samana is not a large place but there was plenty to do. The beaches are not huge but they are lovely and protected bay. There were whales to see, zip lining and tours to be had and the staff were amazing. The entertainment staff... More

We went in December, travelled with other friends for a total of 4. We had a blast, great staff, beautiful location and the food was great. Our room overlooked the ocean, bay & cliffside. The drive from the airport was about an hour but great bus ride with a very personable host. We also go to Punta Cana Riu's but... More

Stayed there for three nights. Had an excellent room with great view. Food was ok, just ok, nothing special. Employees are pleasant,nice and try to do their best. But do not expect anything spactacular, especially from the evening program/entertainment

The animators in the hotel were a pleasure to be with... Full of activities & kept those of us active people on vacation. I would never forget Danny boy, such a comedian and great personality!! Hope to visit Samana again soon. Doris
