When it comes to Caribbean vacations, everyone seems to want the same things: beautiful blue water, a white sandy beach, and a great island vibe. But some would rather do without a bunch of kids running around. That's where Gran Bahia Principe Ambar in Punta Cana excels. This adults-only hotel offers tantalizing, all inclusive deals on tropical getaways for the 18 and older crowd.

Great Resort
Overall, everything was wonderful at this resort. You have the option to use all the amenities of all the other Grand Bahia Principe adjoining properties, only if you stay at the Don Pablo resort. This is great for people who want to vacation with kids or as adult only because the adults can go over to the family side at all times.
Beautiful beach, large selection of wonderful resturants and great entertainment each night..
My boyfriend and I visited the Gran Bahia Don Ambar in August 2009. We were there for 5 days and loved every minute of it. The grounds were beautiful and so was the room. We had our own personal butler she was great she made sure we had everything we needed and on our last day there prepared the jacuzzi with bubbles and candles for us....what a surprise for us! The beach was amazing and so was the pool. The food at all the restaurants was great. Absolutely no complaints. I would recommend this resort to anyone.
we are from windsor ontario and flew out of detroit to atlanta november 15 to 24th 2009. this was our fourth trip to punta cana we have also stayed at the riu palace macao, grand palladium bavaro,and iberostar bavaro. I have asked my wife of the 4 resorts we have been to which one would she consider returning to and she said hands down without hesitason the ambar! she really enjoyed the speciality restaurants,the pillow menu, the beach! and the rooms were very well laid out! it is part of a HUGE RESORT but from the ambar there is not a lot of walking to get to the beach. if you decide to take in a show at the bavaro side of the complex there are constant shuttle mini buses going back and forth all the time. we have also been to jamaica,st lucia and varedero cuba! the other resorts in punta cana were also satisfying and worth the money spent but the AMBAR showed really well in all aspects, room cleanlines,pool, and the restaurants! WE WOULD HAVE NO TROUBLE RECOMMENDING THIS RESORT! ALSO THIS IS ADULTS ONLY NOOOO KIDDDS!

Hotel Description
Adults-Only Caribbean Fun at Gran Bahia Principe in Punta Cana
When it comes to Caribbean vacations, everyone seems to want the same things: beautiful blue water, a white sandy beach, and a great island vibe. But some would rather do without a bunch of kids running around. That's where Gran Bahia Principe Ambar in Punta Cana excels. This adults-only hotel offers tantalizing, all inclusive deals on tropical getaways for the 18 and older crowd.
Whether you want an awesome wedding venue, a romantic honeymoon destination or time away from kids, this place offers grown-up fun in the sun. Once you enter the resort's luxurious marble lobby, responsibilities fade away as you take the first sip of your welcome cocktail; then it's time to hit the beach.
Guests of the Ambar hotel enjoy direct access to the resort's exclusive beach. Coconut palm trees sway in the breeze, as you and your sweetie go snorkeling and kayaking. And don't miss out on the free hour-long catamaran ride, also part of the all inclusive package. Then take a dip in the lake-style pool, head to the swim-up bar for a frosty coco loco and prepare to work on your tan.
Surprise her with reservations for a romantic dinner for two at Don Pablo to indulge in the heavenly French cuisine, or dine on Italian delicacies at Portofino. If you're in the mood for something else, just remember that not only can you choose from Ambar's four bars and restaurants, but you also have full access to all bars and restaurants in the entire Gran Bahia Principe Punta Cana and Bavaro complexes.
Wondering how to fend off those vacation pounds? There's aerobics, merenge classes and yoga. Or you can spend a leisurely day on the greens: Punta Blanca Golf Club, designed by Nick Price, is just five minutes from the resort. If you'd rather relax, book a steamy couple's massage at the spa. Then serenade your partner at the Karaoke Piano Bar before retiring to the Junior Deluxe Suite so you can both rest up for another day in this tropical paradise.
