Located on the luscious Samana peninsula in the north of the Dominican Republic, the Gran Bahia Principe El Portillo takes relaxation to the next level. Surrounded by thriving green landscapes and flawless, alabaster beaches, the resort exudes the kind of calm atmosphere you can sink your toes into.

For your taste buds only

The main restaurant, Las Dalias, is an international buffet offering breakfast, lunch and dinner. There are also themed restaurants to check out as well, offering a wide variety of fare including traditional Italian, experimental cuisine, seafood, and Asian. There are also bars throughout the resort so you are never too far from enjoying your favourite cocktail.

For active pursuits

There are loads of activities and places to visit at the resort, including a spa, the beautiful beach, pool, outdoor Jacuzzi, and a myriad of sports and activities. There are also several area outings available to book at the resort for additional costs. When night falls, take in a dynamic and colourful display on stage at the theatre incorporating thrilling dance performances and a vibrant Caribbean sound. Shake and shimmy over to the discotheque for an evening of rhythmic bachata beats.

Relaxation is the game

In the bright festive decor of your Standard Room, spend a calm evening watching the sun duck beneath the line of the coconut trees from your private balcony or terrace. Take a languid soak in your hydo massage tub and curl up in a fresh bathrobe while you catch a show on your satellite TV.
