    Come with extra USD Cash to check in!

    The Front desk held us up from taking our room to which we checked in online prior to our arrival, this took and additional 1.5 hours as they told us without hesitation they do not have our room and we MUST upgrade and PAY extra in USD with their $$$ exchange rate. This upgrade was a cash grab and their rooms are not very nice! Best of Luck!

    Definitely Not the Vibe

    The rooms are dirty and rundown, with lots of broken things. We booked two queen beds but were given one bed and a fold-out couch with dried urine stains, so three of us ended up sharing one bed all week. The ground-floor patio door wouldn’t lock and neither would the phone or hair dryer - eventually fixed, but the bed situation never was despite asking at front desk a kiss if times. The vibe is loud and chaotic, with people lacking basic manners—pushing ahead of others (even kids just trying to get water) and waving big thermal mugs they brought from home, to be filled with rum. Definitely not chic or relaxing. Very disappointing.

    Amazing week in Bahia Grand El Portillo

    Amazing beach, a lot of sunbeds in a shade. No problem to find a space on a beach. Very clean and good maintained pools. Garden are really beautiful. Rooms need some renovation, but very clean, quiet, service is really good! Food in Buffet is very tasty , a lot of varieties. Only one small disappointment - evening shows were very average. Local girls and boys tried their best, but they are not professional... I just compare with shows in other Bahia resorts. But overall it was amazing week!

    Dirty bed sheets

    2/4 nights so far my bed sheets had stains on them. Kind of weird since they change them for clean ones. Every time I called and asked them to change they acted confused and surprised the stain is there. This is unacceptable. For $10k a week during Christmas week my bed sheets SHOULD NOT HAVE STAINS ON THEM AFTER BEING CLEANED.
