"The cleanest place I have ever stayed. The best customer service I have experienced. The layout is amazing, so easy to navigate. We will be returning!"

"Great pool area. Staff were great."

"Yes"

"Perfect place to spend 2 weeks in the sun! Close to plenty of walkable places if you want to get out of the resort. "

"Our room was amazing and spacious and the view was SO beautiful!! Your housekeeping staff was so friendly and helpful and kept our room fresh and clean every day!! Your repair maintenance man carried a new TV to our room when it didn't work and replaced it. Your bartenders and food staff go above and beyond to make sure that we eat well and stay hydrated!! The food is amazing and the selection is delicious, from the fish tacos, hamburgers, and cheesy fries, to the amazing breakfast buffet, and Asian and Italian night options!! The coffee shop made waking up just that much better!! The Altitude special service area was an extra perk!! It made us feel very special!! The infinity pool and entertainment staff truly made special memories for us!! Water aerobics, foam party, bingo, pool volleyball, aqua Zumba, the dancers, karaoke, and the view of the ocean was amazing!! I want to tell you that your staff is truly your greatest strength!! When the events that happened on Sunday took place, your staff had to deal with so much more chaos, but they came through it with grace and understanding and I have never felt more safe!! They worked through it all on a skeleton crew but they did it together and it really showed!! They pivoted and provided their best with who and what they had to work with and we were able to continue with our vacation without too much disruption. Thank you for helping make our vacation so memorable and special!!"

"The room was great! The pools were great! Staff was excellent! We had so much fun here for the little time we had. We booked again and can’t wait to enjoy more the amenities - since there is so much to do we are going to stay for longer. I would love to not the 24/7 pantry. It’s such a nice touch that not many (if any) resorts do. Staff was super attentive and always offering food and drinks. We had the opportunity going to the Japanese Restaurant (book ASAP since they are always booked) which was delicious and so fun. The chef was hilarious! I will say that since the resort is in the mountains it can be a lot of walking for some BUT staff is super accommodating and there is carts always circulating offering rides around the resort. "

"Food was very good, staff very good,friendly room very clean "

"Rooms were clean. Staff was helpful and fantastic. Always willing to help! Lots of activities. Food was really good for an all inclusive hotel. We were there during the El Mencho cartel crisis and while the hotel was a bit short staffed, we always felt safe."

"We spent 6 wonderful days at Barceló and were so sad to leave. We will definitely be back. The staff was incredibly kind and welcoming. We especially appreciated the waiter Moises for his great service, and the entire entertainment team with Anahi (we loved the guacamole making class) and Fernando, who brought great energy with his dancing and poolside fun. Our biggest standout was Carlos at the Kids Club, with his infinite energy! He and his team made our kids comfortable and excited every day. We did not expect to use the kids club, but our kids loved it so much they kept asking to go back. Our 5 year old enjoyed crafts, painting, musical chairs, and face painting. Both kids loved piñata making, the Mario Kart tournament, and evening activities like the Mexican party with candy. The beach was beautiful, and one day we even saw a humpback whale breach five times in the bay. We went whale watching with the Jack Sparrow tour company at the hotel and the crew was fantastic. It was also fun recognizing the exterior, hallways, and pool from Apple TV’s Acapulco. Our favorite day was Mexican Day. The buffet was excellent with fresh fruit, juices, and Mexican food, and the show was great. Weekends felt bigger than weekdays. A few minor downsides: limited non alcoholic drinks, basic coffee options, language barriers at specialty restaurants, an extremely cold room with no HVAC fix, no do-not-disturb signs, very thick pillows, and slow disappointing food at the Kyoto restaurant."
