Three Bahia Principe resorts in Samana available for agents booking through MLT's Delta Vacations and United Vacations brands include the two adults-only Grand Bahia Principe Cayo Levantado Don Pablo Collection and Grand Bahia Principe Cayacoa resorts.

The Grand Bahia Principe El Portillo welcomes all age groups.
