  Mobility reduced handicapped accessible girl review

  Accessible handicapped disabled mobility girl review Punta Cana Bahia Principe Ambar Luxury resort was hands down the most accessible mobility reduced friendly place I have ever stayed at. I use a cane and a mobility scooter all the time, and this resort was accessible literally everywhere with my scooter. Be it using the handicapped bathroom at the pool or any of the numerous ramps to get to the buffets, room, or restaurants, the Ambar has it all. The entire staff was exceptional all the time. The handicapped room was large and well laid out. It was very close to the beach and pool, but was very quiet at the same time. This resort also has a wooden promenade that you can scoot or wheelchair down almost to the ocean shore. the beach also has 2 designated handicapped platforms, completely accessible with the scooter. I was very impressed with this thoughtful addition as well. I would like to extend a huge thank you to the entire staff at the Ambar as well as to the resort owners who designed the resort with these amazing features. I had a fantastic experience because of all of this. Highly recommend !!

  Great, except for the hamburgers

  The overall experience was good, however the hamburgers (I assume soy burgers) were awful-dry and tasteless. They ruined an otherwise great pool and beach experience. The other issue was the quality (or lack of) of the wireless WiFi signal at the poolside restaurant(Las Brisas). Nothing ruins a nice and relaxing breakfast like an intermittent WiFi signal as you try to catch up on the news of the day.

  Vegetarian second class guest

  All perfectly ok, what let it down for us was a lack of vegetarian food options in the a la cart restaurants. We went to the Akumal in a Mexico and there was always a vegetarian starter and main. That isn’t the case here, which is surprising. For example at Yurta there is one choice of starter and it contains beef. If you’re vegetarian there is no alternative. We asked Guest Services about the Dominican restaurant but due to there not being anything suitable we had to cancel our reservation. It was very hit and miss! At Meat, yes I know the clue is in the title, my husband’s steak was good, I was offered a plate of vegetables. It surely can’t be hard to provide a source of protein for non-meat eaters. There was plenty of choice at the buffet but we don’t like to eat at the buffet in the evening. As a vegetarian I felt my experience was below par. Overall we had a good time but food wasn’t great across the board.

  Honest review

  Hotel, itself, is lovely. We booked with TUI. If it wasn’t for Facebook groups I joined, we’d have been incredibly clueless. TUI reps none existant in the hotel. Did we have a great time, yes. Would we go back … absolutely not. Positives - sun, beach (sand is soft and beach is miles long), sea (gorgeous and warm), staff in general around the resort. Buffet restaurant fabulous, and some al a cartes the same Negatives - one pool. Yes, we have access to the other hotels, but they are full of kids. I left mine at home 😂 found the pool scene a bit hit and miss. Quite loud and aggressive to a point where I felt uncomfortable several times in the two weeks we were there. For reference, I’m loud myself, love a laugh, love a dance and a drink. But meh … bit grim. Beach is stunning but you get hounded constantly. Not enough info on what you have access to in other hotels. IMO this is a massive bonus, yet told nothing. Bed is a shocker. So uncomfortable. What made our holiday … the beautiful friendly and polite Canadian guests, the amazing people we met on our plane from Manchester, Maria the butler, all the staff in the buffet restaurant, and all the golf cart (train) drivers.

  Just returned from luxury ambar and what a holiday, this place is huge with all the other hotels combined. Food was fantastic and the beach is fabulous, the staff were all so polite and couldn't do enough for you. I strongly recommend this hotel for a holiday of a lifetime and fantastic memories. Thank you luxury ambar.
