The facility was not even ready to be open, half of the pools and the volleyball beach court were in repair, the people who entertain did not know how to do it the schedules were posted with some activities and at the last minute were changed. Bad vacation for our family

Hotel Description
Barcelo Karmina Palace Deluxe: All Inclusive, Family-Friendly on Mexico's West Coast
Inspired by Mayan temples, Barcelo Karmina Palace Deluxe, an all inclusive resort on Mexico's western coast welcomes guests with unique architecture and service fit for royalty. Golden-vaulted ceilings in the lobby and flower-filled gardens enhance the feeling that you're in for a treat from the moment you step out of the taxi. With eight cascading pools, Barcy Club for kids and the Mayan Theater for nightly entertainment, guests keep that feeling throughout their stay.
Start the day with a romantic stroll on Karmina Beach, where cream-colored sands are speckled with silver grains courtesy of this volcanic region's high mineral content. Traveling with the kids? The beach's gentle waves are perfect for even the littlest swimmers. For incredible water-time variety, the resort also features eight interconnected swimming pools with waterfalls and a slide, perfect for entertaining both young and old.
Lunch and dinner are a breeze when you enjoy the extensive buffet dining and ? la carte fare at the hotel's popular Japanese and Mexican restaurants. We love Kyoto, both for the sushi and the service, but Restaurant Agave really shouldn't be missed. Traditional Mexican specialties are accompanied by stunning beach views we never get tired of seeing. Snack and drink service keep even the hungriest guests going throughout the day with five bars that serve frosty concoctions and cold cervezas. After dinner, kick back with live music every night in the lobby bar, or head to the Mayan Theater for nightly entertainment that's a favorite with return guests.
Ready for more than snoozing? Work out your muscles with a steam-room session or your favorite gym routine. Hit the water for a bit of windsurfing, snorkeling or kayaking. And then visit the resort's spa to enjoy a session of bliss with a massage.
Ready to wind down? Barcelo Karmina Palace Deluxe is known for its attention to detail and immaculate rooms. For families, the Jr. Suite is just about perfect with its spacious layout, two TVs, fully stocked mini bar and either a balcony or a patio. It's a bit of heaven!
