Dec 19, 2025Service is excellent but rooms need refurbishing
It’s the third year in a row that me and my husband return to Barcelo Karmina in Manzanillo. It’s a nice place and employees go above and beyond to make you feel at home. I would say that their staff is one of the main reasons why I keep coming back.

We've gone to different Barcelo locations but we always make our way back to Karmina. We love the atmosphere, environment, staff engagement and attention to detail. 8 years coming here and plan to continue for generations to come. Thank you!

Dec 05, 2025Will never return
Came here for a wedding. The advertised restaurants were never available. I tried to book at one prior to arrival, and was told I had to book when I arrived. Once I arrived, they were either closed or booked. Now there is a giant event with a huge band that is going all night. We were given no warning that this was happening but ear plugs were left in our room. Lights are flashing through the curtains and sleep is impossible. Would never stay here again. There were other issues but it's pointless to keep listing.
