    Consistently great year over year

    I have stayed at this hotel many times but hadnt been for a few years before my recent trip. I was not disappointed when I returned, it is like coming home. Staff are great, supervisors (captains) are involved in daily activities and available for assistance if needed. Food is good and drinks are flowing. Rooms and grounds are well kept. Lots of activities and entertainment on the grounds if you want. Very close to a local mexican market.

    Canadian seniors in Barcelo Ixtapa

    We had a great time in the 9 days we stayed. The beach was excellent. It is long enough to have long walks. Loved the huge waves during High tide.
