Oct 03, 2026Excellent Hotel!
I have stayed at other Barcelo hotels and I can say that they didn't disappoint, room was pristine, great AC, excellent bed, great furnitures, excellent lightning control. Service room is fast and great. Breakfast buffet had good selections and omelet station. Natural Juice, Yogurt, Milk, Cereal, Fresh Fruit. Great sitting under AC with pool view and an amazing backyard! Staff is fast and attentive.

Very positive stay
I stayed at hotel for a business trip where I delivered training at the venue as well. The hotel was great and the staff were very friendly and polite, a special mention to Roberto de Oleo who was very helpful during my stay with setting up the room. The hotel is spotlessly clean and the food was great. I would definitely recommend
