We have been to many resorts across the Dreams, Iberostar and Barcelo chains. You will not regret selecting this destination. The rooms are amazing and the food in the restaurants was fantastic. The only complaint is that the management needs to get a handle on the "towel game". At one point during our stay, half of the chairs had been... More

Just returned from Barcelo Puerto Vallarta. The place was a bit smaller than we are used to (compared to Moon Palace) but it was very well run. The buffet food got old very quickly, but the 'dining' restaurants were wonderful. We upgraded to the Premium package. Worth every penny! You can dine ala 'Carte unlimited. It also includes wireless internet... More

3 generations of our family came to stay at this beautiful resort in mid-May. We fully enjoyed the accommodations that included painting, swimming, beach activities, spa services and although we did not use these; the tennis courts, gym and game room. We saw a "Tropicana" show that was very entertaining and we were provided with a free city and tequila... More

I took my 80 year old parents for a six night stay at the Barcelo. This was our second stay the first was three years ago. We like the spacious rooms and enjoyed the pools. The food was average but found the specialty restraurants to have a better assortment and more flavorfull food. The staff is extremely friendly and we... More

My wife and I and two of her girlfriends stayed at the Barcelo May 12 - 19. This is the 21st Mexico All Inclusive beach vacation for my wife and I. We have previously stayed in Cancun, Puerto Morelos, Playa del Carmen, Cozumel, and Puerto Vallarta. We found there to be many positives at the Barcelo along with one major... More

I was shocked to learn that this hotel intertwined our resort experience with local guests that paid a measly $40 a day for a family pass. This says it all! More

We were at the Barcelo in May 2012. The weather was terrific - 60's at night, 80's during the day and not a cloud in the sky! The hotel is in a perfect setting nestled in Mismaloya Bay. It's breathtaking, with the view of the bay and the hillsides. We got a Grand Master Suite, which had a balcony on... More

-I travelled to the Barcelo with my husband and another couple. The hotel was very accommodating providing us rooms right next to each other. THE RESORT: -friendly and helpful staff -beautiful landscaped grounds -big clean and modern rooms -A la carte restaurants good-Don Quijote was our favorite. Would recommend eating your lunch at Los Arcos. The food is fresher than... More

We were at the Barcelo from April 15 - 22. Mismaloya beach is gorgeous and the atmosphere calming and relaxing. Our biggest complaint was the front desk service. Jamie was bordering on rude. His answers were curt, and he was not really interested in helping with our problem. Once the manager Roberto became involved, our problem with our lack of... More

Nice pool and nice activites as well, the bar at the pool rocks, it was clean and heated enough to have a good time when we went, January without feeling the water cold. Great drinks selections in the bar as well as the buffets and snack bar, A really great experience overall. More
