We just got back from a fantastic vacation at the Bahia and I can't say enough about it. That place is so beautiful, well organized, clean, hard working people, gorgeous beaches, good food, great fun and respectful staff. We upgraded to the Golden Club on the Punta Cana side (They have two resorts next to each other-Mirror images,yet all in one). The Punta Cana side and the Bavaro side. The Golden Club villas are the closet to the beach and gives you upgraded amenities. It is a large resort with a little tram that runs front to back almost 24/7 daily( you can also walk on the beautiful walkway)There was never any one place that was too crowded with people. Many pools and they are kept immaculate. We are heading back next summer and would not stay any other place than the Gran Bahia. Mail me if you have any other questions.
