Bahia Principe Ambar was okay, but I wouldnât go back.
The resort itself is beautiful and very clean, and a few staff members were friendly. However, the overall experience left a lot to be desired. For starters, there was no tour or orientation when we arrived, so we were completely lost at first trying to find restaurants, pools, and other amenities. It took a lot of asking around and wandering to get the hang of it.
The biggest issue was the food. The buffets were extremely lacklusterâmost dishes lacked flavor or had a weird taste, and some seemed questionable in terms of food safety. I witnessed cross-contamination when ordering chicken (raw and cooked items on the same grill), and some burgers were barely cooked, then just tossed back on the grill to finish. Breakfast was disappointing too, with limited variety and virtually no Dominican food at allâno yuca, no mangu, nothing local. Yurta was the only restaurant we actually enjoyed. The rest were just average at best (5/10).
Service at the restaurants was hit-or-miss. Some servers were attentive, but others completely disappeared. We often waited 15â20 minutes just to get a drink refill. On the bright side, the bartenders were greatâfriendly and fast. Honestly, bartending seemed to be the one area they truly excelled in.
One of the most annoying parts of the stay was constantly being approached and pitched somethingâspa treat
