Bahia del Sol Porto Cesareo — Restaurant in Porto Cesareo

If you're on the hunt for the ultimate beach club experience in Porto Caesareo, look no further than Bahia. This is a hidden gem and we can't wait to return next year!

We visited in August 2023 with my husband, father in law (both Italian) and my son and will go back again!!!

Food: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (5/5)

Bahia has set a new standard for beach club cuisine. Their culinary offerings deserve nothing less than a perfect five-star rating. The flavors, presentation, and variety of dishes are simply outstanding. From fresh seafood delicacies to delectable Mediterranean treats, every bite was a journey of taste and satisfaction.

Service: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (5/5)

Impeccable service is what sets Bahia apart from the rest. The staff is not just attentive; they are friendly & warm. Whether you're lounging in the "maldives" like sea or dining at the restaurant, every detail was simply perfect. The attention to detail and eagerness to meet your needs make your visit truly unforgettable.

Comfort: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (5/5)

Bahia offers the utmost in relaxation and luxury. From plush sunbeds to shaded cabanas and private beachfront areas, there's no shortage of comfortable spots to soak up the sun or enjoy a cool breeze. You'll find yourself losing track of time as you drift into pure bliss.

Crowd: Cool mix of 25's/35's and young families

Bahia's clientele is a fantastic blend of a cool trendy crowd and young families, creating a vibrant and inviting atmosphere. Whether you're looking to unwind with friends or create beautiful memories with your loved ones, it caters for both. I liked that they also look care to place families close to each other and the more young/cool crowd in a different section which keeps both parties happy. I think an important detail to create a comfortable balance for all guests.

Music: Perfect DJ Each Day

The music at Bahia is more than just background noise; it's a carefully curated experience that complements the beach club's ambiance flawlessly. With a perfect DJ at the helm each day, you can expect the tunes to match your mood, whether you're looking to groove to the beat or simply relax by the shore.

In terms of value for money, Bahia excels in providing a fair balance. The food credits for lunch that come with certain areas in the club add extra value to your visit, making the overall experience worth every penny. The exceptional service and top-notch comfort you enjoy at Bahia make it an investment in pure relaxation and indulgence.

In conclusion, Bahia is a paradise on Porto Caesareo's shores that truly lives up to its five-star rating. From the delectable cuisine to the attentive service, luxurious comfort, and the perfect blend of guests, this beach club has it all. We can't wait to return next year and create more memories in this beachfront haven. Bahia you have created the perfect cool beach-club for those you like some luxury.

Caroline, Simone, Roberto...

We arrived at Bahia resort at 10.30 am yesterday. The man that was managing the entrance to the easy accessible parking lot was so kind and friendly and guided me to the disability parking as I am registered disabled (uk) as have a problem with my right leg and use an aid to walk . The disability friendliness stopped at the entrance to the resort !! We were met by two young Italian girls who gave us the initial friendly lip service but when we asked to book two sun beds and an umbrella they said the location was not accessible for me to get to the toilets . I asked if I could pay for the 2 beds and take my little upright chair in that easily tucked between the two loungers . They refused me entrance with my small and compact walking frame and chair as well to manage my balance on the sand. My friend the. Asked if they had an upright beach chsor to use if they were denying my little chair. We were flatly refused entrance and they clearly showed disdain on our requests and flatly blanked us. They did not even. Try to call a manager to accommodate us and they clearly have no demarcated areas near the car and toilets to accommodate any firm of disability. If you have a disability Bahia will not accept you!!! One must be fully able to access the resort perhaps the kind of image they want for this shallow resort. The entrance reception staff need to learn some compassion for others as their attitudes were very snotty ! What a disappointment ! We made our way to orange sun next door where they made us so welcome with so much kindness and accommodated us with a n allocated parking , it was much cheaper than the inflated snobbiness and it’s right next door with a huge range of foods, drinks and a lovely manager ! When I return to the uk I will be writing up on Bahia resort as I’m a uk journalist !...

From the moment we arrived we were greeted with a list of things we are not allowed to do. One example I could not use my inflatable swimming aid but could only rent their floating bed. Showers and toilets are at the entrance which means you have to walk through the dining area. Of course you are turend around to dress you can not pass wearing swimsuit. Apart from the wrong placement of the showers if this is one of the rules this wannabe posh place has a lot to learn about hospitality. Our beds were not made and the plastic wrapping the towels was left to us. There is plenty of choice with nice and welcoming staff allover Salento. Much to be learned here.

EDIT 2022: things have gotten worse. The service is non existent. We rang the bell 5 times no waiter showed up. I called on the phone and got the answering machine. You don't get towels on sunbeds anymore for premium. Either you rent or buy them.Premium was supposed to be in first row but now they put 15 eur sunbeds infront so bascically you're in the second row. For a concierge service it's just way to expensive. When you pay premium you need to be served. I will come back just to let people know...
