The property needs a complete upgrade, everything is circa 1990. The pool area has multiple spots with missing tiles that are sharp all over the pool and jacuzzi. The lobby area reeks of urine and is dark and dreary. The food options are scarce. They have 2 buffets and 4 diff restaurants that you have to basically beg for a table at an accommodating time. The food at the buffet is limited. There is nothing for kids here the “kids club” is small and no activities are being offered for them. Good luck getting a chair poolside if you’re not up at 6.

Dear Nicole M, Thank you for your insights following your recent visit. We always look for ways to improve and your comments are crucial to our future success We want to thank you for the advice on the safety around the swimming pool and passed your comments to our technical service so that they can revise the situation in order to study how this can be improved. We actually have two buffets and 5 themed restaurants on the property. We sincerely lament reading that none of them was available as we always suggest going to the restaurant and see if you can be accommodated. It is a pity that sometimes guests make reservation and fail to show up so in a future visit we hope to better accommodate you. We are very sorry to read that your kids didn't take full advantage of the wide array of activities organized by our professional mini club staff and sincerely hope they will join the activities on a future occasion. Thank you once again for making us your choice hotel and for your constructive critics, we certainly look forward to serving you again and to have the opportunity to exceed you expectations in a not too distant future. Kind regards,

We had a great time for 5 days at Barcelo!! The pool and the beach were fantastic. The only frustrating thing is that people would reserve beach/pool chairs the night before so even if you were out by 7am, there was no space anywhere. Otherwise lovely. The dinner restaurants were incredible. The buffet food was good, just got old after a while. Not many breakfast and lunch options. The reservations process was weird too. They would say they only had 8:30pm available, but walking by earlier the restaurants were empty? Confusing. But the staff were soooooo nice. Everyone was so friendly overall excellent trip!

We really enjoyed this hotel. The staff was friendly and helpful. The food was delicious…I’m not sure what the problem is of the other reviewers! We literally loved all the food. Excellent service in all the restaurants. The bar was great..I got mixed drinks everyday..my husband did get sick of the local beer, the only beer they offered, by the end of our trip. (They did have corona at the Mexican restaurant) My only complaint about the room itself was the bathroom layout. It was awful. The towels are mounted over the toilet…out of arms reach from the shower. The shower was another issue..was tall and hard to step in and out of. The floor is SO slick, I was afraid I was going to fall… I’m pretty short and when I stepped out of the shower, it was up to my crotch area. I was a little irritated with our “view” as we paid for the ocean view and it was obstructed by the restaurant in the front. (We we’re on the 3rd floor) All in all, we would come here again. We didn’t leave the hotel much because we just wanted relaxation. I wouldn’t bring my kids here though…people were belligerent everyday at the pool bar, cussing and such..I just wouldn’t want my kids around that. But if we come back by ourselves, we will stay here again!

Great location. Staff were wonderful. Room was nice. The themed restaurants were okay but the dinner buffet is terrible. Most of the evening entertainment wasn't very good. Pool is very small for a hotel of this size and not enough loungers/palapas. The adjacent Aruba Watersports center on the beach was fantastic. There are so many great places to eat in Palm Beach so we wouldn't go all inclusive again.

I liked the all-inclusive aspect. The meals, selection and service were great. However, an EXTRA person NEXT to the grill cook is needed. Doris and the other staff did a fantastic job of keeping the bar area clean and prepped. I DIDN'T like the fact that there was no OUTSIDE bar to enjoy at night for us cigarettes/cigar smokers. Cleaning staff was top notch and very attentive...as we're the front desk staff.
