Nov 11, 2025Very disappointing 😞
Very disappointing experience — and even worse, Barceló seems to hide negative reviews. I posted my honest feedback several times, but it’s visible only from my account — not to others. The bus for our tour left without us, the reception supervisor ignored us, and the tour agent showed up 40 minutes late. We lost our day and got zero help. If you care about service and transparency, think twice before booking here.

Nov 10, 2025Beautiful Beach
Good overall. Excellent beach, beautiful grounds. Lots of chairs. Very large, lots of people. Cons - rooms dated, but clean. Shower pressure non existant. Lunch Buffet, no where to just grab something to eat pool side. Buffet at lunch, disengaged staff and multiple empty containers. It was not great. A La Cartes excellent - if you can get in. Make you book and limit. No nightlife. NO coffee, need a cafe or coffee 24hr in lobby. Nothing worse then having to go to a buffet machine. They have in room, but as a tea drinker I wont use.

Meh
Just leaving the resort so I want to share while its fresh in my mind. Its been a nice week but wanted to share somethings here. I picked this hotel for my teen daughters as it said it had a teen disco, well it does, it is never promoted and always closed due to not being busy. There were so many teens here and no promotion for the kids to go, the were walking aimlessly at night. It seems they really don’t want to run the club at all. If you don’t get chairs in the shade by the pool or beach by 7am, you will likely not find any. The food was ok, a la carte were meh! They provided you a wine list and it is not included, its an upcharge. We had a good time but there were things that I had booked for that we did not have access to. Many hidden costs

Nov 02, 2025Awesome experience
I had such a great time at Barcelo Maya Tropical! The poolside activities were one of the highlights of my trip, Estefania brought so much energy and made sure everyone was having a great time. She really made the experience that much better! Would definitely love to come back and visit.
