The food is mediocre at best! No/cheap alcohol in the drinks. Absolutely impossible to get chairs at the pool even though there are signs holding chairs with towels is not tolerated. BS! The rooms need to be updated. I would not go back to this resort. It is not worth the price for what you get! They are better places in the area.

Loved the close proximity to the shops & restaurants. Wait staff, bartenders and beach staff were great. Cocktails were good. Breakfast buffet was good. The rest of the time it was ok. Hard to get reservations for the restaurants. Booked 2 rooms with Double beds. When we checked in got 2 rooms with a King bed and a twin roll away bed. This did not work for us. Went to front desk and got some ridiculous reasoning on how it’s “2” beds . They did have this fixed by the next day and we got the rooms we booked. Key cards to our rooms would just stop working. Many wasted trips to the front desk to fix.

The beach is beautiful. The simple request to have a king bed three times prior to checking in failed twice. Both rooms they provided for us to check in that did not have a king bed or extremely filthy. We took the cleaner of the rooms and waited for a king bed room the following day. The staff seems friendly but they do not communicate well and have no knowledge of what is going on

Dear Jodi, Please accept our sincerest apologies for the imperfections you describe in your review, all rooms reserved for new arrivals are per standard double checked by our head of housekeeping to ensure that everything is functional and spotless for our guests, clearly we were not performing to our usual standard on this occasion and we regret not being immediately informed at reception so as to be able to intervene in no time for you to fully enjoy your stay in our hotel, for a future occasion, please do not hesitate to contact the reception desk for anything you may need, the team will do its utmost to find an immediate solution for you. We appreciate the time you took to share your concerns, and it is our hope that you will give us the opportunity to better serve you in the future.Kind regards,

Prior to arrival I filled out and sent online check-in forms. Got confirmation back. However, upon arrival the hotel could not find any of my information. I had to find and resend the check in information and pull up and send the Travelocity information. It took almost 45 minutes for them to check us in. Everything else was good after check in.

Room door not sealed-you hear everything. Tiny balcony-you sit sideways. Property is clean & a friendly staff. They charge a fee for keeping the sliding door open (musty), but they keep the emergency exits ajar which makes the hallway musty. Vegan menus at reservation dinners had at least one option in each category (app-salad/soup-main-dessert) I had dessert once. It was the only restaurant that had it avail all week and it was altered to be vegan. Sometimes they were out of the appetizer. The 2 buffets mislabeled vegan items every day. There was one main-ish vegan dish for breakfast on the day I left (veg empanadas). They have a delivered bread and pastry section, but staff doesn’t know if they’re vegan. Both buffets use tongs on plates in front. They mix in vegan dishes with non vegan dishes and tongs were used in both. My husband (not vegan) tried several dishes from each place & said the food is ok at best. Slow service except the Japanese restaurant. Great service, he said the food was pretty decent. The rooms need to be updated/redesigned, the staff needs to be educated about different diets, how to wait tables & change the buffet that “specializes in international cuisine” it’s buffet style Mexican everyday. The other buffet is a burgers and dogs joint. Barcelo isn’t anything special nor did it make me feel like I was valued. The wristbands are annoying! Lanyards would be great!

Dear Dana Sheree, We greatly appreciate the time you spent to review your recent experience in our hotel, at Barceló we always strive to exceed guests' expectations and your comments will help our teams reaching that goal. We do our best to ensure that the noise levels always stay within the sensible limits so our guests are not disturbed by exterior traffic noise. Sometimes it is impossible to guarantee this as there are going to be moments during the early hours for instance where some traffic noise may be heard from the local municipality services, especially on our lowest road facing floors. We are sorry that we had no availability and were not able to provide you with alternative accommodation. We have taken notice of your comments regarding the emergency doors and regarding the food in the buffet and have shared this very valuable information with the concerning departments for improvements. 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,

Location, room comfort, cleanliness, and staff were good. Food at the buffet was not always good. However, the buffet at the beach location was much better. Pool bar service sometimes was a long wait and disorderly, trying to serve both swim-up and walk-up guests. An alternate outdoor beach bar for drinks and fast food service should be considered.
