I’m going to review the whole resort industry as Barcelo is a typical example. Barcelo as many others is driven by the greed of its shareholders: Minimizing costs and maximizing profits. This “philosophy” is the major cause of why your vacation is getting more expensive while the service is getting worse. Those companies rob native people of all those beautiful islands and force them to “dance” in front of tourists for a couple of bucks. No tipping policy should be an official rule in every all inclusive hotel combined with decent wages for the staff because this is just disrespectful to the tourists who paid already and also unsanitary. These islands are natural resources like oil and locals should have more control over profits made on their lands. Look at how some people of oil nations in the Middle East live now for example. I think more money should stay in those islands for locals and not go overseas to feed fat rats aka shareholders. And finally the tourists themselves! Why do some people behave like pigs? Why are they destroying the rooms? Why are they littering? Why do they just not clean up after themselves a bit?

3 star resort!!
The hotel is on the older side. The grounds, the pool and beach were the best aspect of the resort. The entertainment was not great. The roulette table worker had no idea how to calculate the payouts and someone was helping her the whole time. My wife has some eating restrictions and the hotel assured us ahead of time this would not be a problem. This was not true as she had very limited options and this was very concerning noting she is 6 months pregnant. The concierge tried her best to ensure we had some meals for my wife and gave us speciality dining every night which was a little better but lunches were still very limited. Bathroom access from the beach was a decent walk. The staff and service were great, and cannot fault the food options on them. Overall, this was a very average resort, 3 star max.

The staff was great, aside for the less than friendly towel staff. The food for the most part was good.My family liked the salad bar and the chorizo. Hallways were very loud at night and the doors slamming woke us multiple times.The staff on the beach helping with the chairs were also fantastic. The biggest negatives: not enough chairs at the pool and the front desk staff at times were clueless and not very friendly. We love the island and will be coming back! Fix the chairs and remind the employees to smile and you will have perfection!

Check in was slow, We didn’t receive any of our vip access perks, there was a serious leak from the air conditioner ceiling vent that damaged two pairs of shoes, service was slow at buffet meals, refills for drinks were not offered, you had to ask, and plates were not taken away until the end. Any requests called down to front desk ( extra hangers and pillows) took hours to receive . Housekeeping was efficient and friendly and did a good job cleaning the rooms. The property overall is dated and needs some maintenance. We had an delux ocean view room that looked over a parking lot with the smell of garage from the hotel next door, often quite strong when we sat on our balcony, when we called down to inquire, we were told i” if you can see the ocean from your room it is considered ocean view.” A la cart meals were good and service was much better. Pool bar staff very friendly and attentive but service on the beach very slow. Staff in general very friendly but service overall is slow. Location on beach is prime and access to amenities is central but would not recommend this property or return to this hotel compared to other stays on this island.

They have some really great staff. They really do try. Rooms were a good size and mostly clean though there was a lot of noise from the hall or floor above. Hotel is dated decor-wise. Hot tub was actually hot which isn't always guaranteed. Buffet restaurant food was just awful, even for buffet food. You have to check in with the hostess to get a table. Beach proximity is great and a nice beach though guests "reserve" chairs first thing in the morning by placing towels or personal items in them though they may spend an hour or two all day in the pool or beach, which leads to unnecessary chair scarcity. Swim up pool bar drinks are served in tiny paper cups; bring a refillable bottle. Two dive/watersports shops are a short walk and the main shopping drag is close.

The fire alarms had gone off all hours of the night/morning for 2 nights. Staff could only tell us it was a false alarm. Many of the guests waited 45 minutes outside before any staff members updated them. We had to exit every time due to not knowing if it was a false alarm or real. We spoke with the facilities manager who was very unsympathetic (and almost rude). He supposedly requested a 2 night refund 1 week ago but has not reached out to us and has not responded to my email

We upgraded to the Royal level. Not worth it in my opinion. You basically get to check in at a private room opposed to the front desk. Everything else is same. The “premium drinks” still come in a tiny paper cup. Staff is not very friendly. The Marriott seems much nicer.
