On the positive side, the hotel has a beautiful and spacious territory, plenty of activities, great animation, and very good food at the buffet. The staff truly deserves special mention — they were friendly, attentive, and clearly doing their best to help guests and create a pleasant atmosphere. However, there were several significant issues that affected our stay. The navigation around the resort is very poor. Upon arrival, we were not given any maps, schedules, programs, or basic information about how the hotel works — no guidance on activities, restaurants, or transportation. Everything had to be figured out on our own. The room was another major concern. There was a strong smell of mold, and it felt like the room had not been renovated in decades. Some wall lights were partially detached with nearly exposed wiring. The air conditioner was very old and difficult to operate, and most of the power outlets in the room did not work. Electrical issues were noticeable throughout the property as well — many lights around the resort were not functioning, and the hotel experienced several power outages, which was surprising for such a large complex. We also had issues with the à la carte restaurants. Out of three promised options, we were only able to book two. We missed one reservation because we were not informed that transportation was required to get there, nor were we told about the shuttle schedule. Even at the Japanese restaurant we did attend, organization was poor — des

The room had holes in walls in bathroom.Ants all over the room. Staff were unfriendly. Food was horrible. Not enough bars for drinks so always long lines. Drinks were not consistent. The front desk people were very helpful which was the only good thing about the resort. We did get the upgrade on the bracelets thanks to expedia so we used the other resorts most of the time and they were much better. If it wasnt for the expedia upgrade our stay would of been 0 stars.

We booked Bahia Principe Grand Coba because it was marketed as a family-friendly resort. Unfortunately, it fell far short. After returning home, I became extremely ill and was hospitalized with salmonella. During our stay, I stopped eating a burger at the pool bar after realizing it was completely undercooked. I checked the buffet the next day hoping it was an isolated issue, but the burgers were again visibly undercooked and made with very low-quality meat. I checked a third time with the same result. This appears to be routine, not a one-off mistake. The resort is only slightly cheaper than nearby options, but the quality drop is significant. This is not budget — it is cheap. Food, rooms, and maintenance all reflect heavy cost-cutting. Staff were kind but clearly overwhelmed due to severe understaffing. Service slows noticeably if you don’t tip to unspoken expectations, and the resort refuses to provide change smaller than 50 pesos. Our room was outdated, and the exterior sliding door was off its hinge and did not lock properly at night, which was concerning with children. All three of our kids contracted impetigo, which we believe came from the poorly maintained splash park, which was frequently closed and partially shut down. We spent our final nights at an Iberostar, and the contrast was immediate. This was the worst all-inclusive we’ve experienced after 13 trips. Choose elsewhere.
