We traveled with 4 couples and signed up for the extra golden package. For the little extra $ it was well worth it.. Private check-in ,internet,private bar. All of our rooms were over looking the carribean sea.The rooms were perfect other than beds and pillows were like sleeping on plywood. I was told by guest services Apple vacations get best... More

We arrived to the resort at approximately 3am and they were efficient at checking our whole bus in. It did however take an hour or so for the bell boy to bring us our bags to our room. We had booked a room with a king bed which they in turn provided us a room with 2 double beds pushed... More

My husband and I just got back from our vacation at the GBP Akumel where we spent two wonderful weeks hanging out with his sister and boyfriend. After a 1 1/2 hour van ride we were checked in very quickly and taken to our room which was close to the lobby. Our room attendant kept our room very clean and... More

My husband and I got back last week after spending 2 glorious and fun filled weeks at the GBP Akumal. (January 16- 30th) While there, I celebrated my 50th birthday. I can’t think of a more beautiful place to celebrate one’s birthday or wedding or any kind of milestone. Upon returning to our room on my birthday a beautiful 2... More

we travelled to Bahia Principe with very low price (1100€ for 2 persons in august 2010) so we can´t really complain. The hotel services work ok, the rooms were fine, nothing too fancy, the beach is nice and the pools as well. It ´s just important to understand that is´s a huge hotel, food is nothing special, neither the cocktails.... More

Just got back from Gran Bahia Principe Akumal, Riviera Maya. All I can say, is WOW!!!! What an amazing place. The location, facilities, food, service, hospitality and everything was way beyond out expectations. We upgraded to Royal Golden, and I would do it again in a heartbeat. Don't let the size of the property stop you from booking here. There... More

Stayed here for two weeks in May 2011. This place was amazing for value. There was so much to do, I could have stayed here a month. The restaurants were all outstanding especially the Japanese Mikado. The beach here is absolutely stunning and the sea is a perfect temperature. I would recommend this hotel to couples,family and wedding parties. There... More

I did a fairly extensive review, but it somehow got lost in the upload, so I am going to try and be short and sweet with this attempt. What did I like? 1) The resort buildings and grounds are beautiful and well maintained. Everything is very clean and the main building is large and interesting. 2) The room was spacious,... More
