Nov 03, 2026Great stay-Great staff
The only reason not 5 stars is because food seemed repetitive in buffet over the week. Good but repetitive. When announcing activities around pool, it was never repeated in English. Yes, I realize I'm in Mexico. We paid for Premium stay, just didn't seem as upscale as received in other Barcelo Resorts. Small touches like a novelty bottle of Tequila in room upon arrival, for example. Taking us straight to the Premium Lounge for check in. Went into lounge, brought out to lobby and started check in, then took to lounge for wrist bands. Great stay- Great staff, just some details that could have made it over the top like we have had at other Barcelo resorts

Weekend stay
Overall the short weekend trip was good. The room itself was a nice room with the necessary amenities. The beds were average but the pillows were nice. Every staff we encountered were respectful and nice. The entire hotel including the bathrooms by the pool were kept very clean.
