    DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY – COMPLETE DISAPPOINTMENT AT A “5-STAR” RESORT

    I recently stayed at Barceló Maya Beach Resort for a 3-day trip, and it was an absolute disaster from the moment we checked in. I booked this resort based on the glowing 4.7-star reviews and the fact that it’s listed as a 5-star hotel on Google. That rating is completely misleading – I now believe many of those reviews must be fake. This trip was meant to be a special celebration for my friend’s birthday. Instead, it turned into a frustrating, poorly managed experience. Here’s why: • Terrible Transportation: No buggies available anywhere. The only shuttle bus between lobbies runs every 25 minutes, making it extremely inconvenient just to move around the resort. • Faulty Air Conditioning: Our room was hot and uncomfortable. Even after multiple complaints, nothing was done. • Staff Don’t Act on Issues: While the staff were polite, they consistently failed to take action. It felt like we were just being pacified and ignored. • The Food is a Joke: For a resort in Mexico, there was no authentic Mexican food. No tacos. No spice. No flavor. Just bland, low-quality buffet food. The “all-inclusive” option is misleading — it covers only buffet and snack bars. Most à la carte restaurants are paid, and even the paid ones were awful. • Birthday Ruined: I had arranged a birthday cake and wine through guest services, and they assured us the cake would be delivered to our room at 7 PM. We waited. No one came. At 8 PM we called to check, and they casually said the request wasn’t valid because it wasn’t made 24 hours in advance — even though they confirmed it themselves earlier! Totally unacceptable. • Beach Was Dirty: The beach was a huge letdown. It looked beautiful in the photos, but in reality, it was not clean. There were strange red deposits all along the shore – not sure what it was, but it made the water look uninviting and the experience unpleasant. • Pool Bar Chaos: The pool bar had only two staff members serving a huge crowd. We had to wait over 15 minutes just to get a drink. On a hot vacation day, that’s the last thing anyone wants. • The Only Good Thing – Spa: The spa was the only part of this resort that met expectations. Clean, professional, relaxing. Everything else was below 2-star quality. This place does not deserve a 4.7-star rating. If you’re considering it for a special occasion, please look elsewhere. I wouldn’t go back here even for free.

    Great place!

    Came here for a girls trip. The report was very well maintained and the service was very good. Irene at the pool side bar was the best server I have ever had at an all inclusive. She was very friendly and always came to say hi every morning. She brought water throughout the day and drinks. Overall, very good experience.
