Loved by Bahia Principe Explore Esmeralda (Adults Only) guests
"Both of the pools are extremely nice and well taken care of."
"We got a swimup room and we loved it."
"The beach is beautiful, yes at times there's a lot of sea weed this is due to global warming, not caused by the Caribbean area and I would recommend people have a little bit more sympathy with regards to this, it's sad to see."
