Friendly, helpful staff. Exceptional location on the beach - lots of palm trees to sit under - and on the main strip (restaurants, shops etc.) Good food at the buffet and specialty restaurants, great cocktail selection at the lobby bar! The ONLY suggestion we have is to remove the big old broken universal weight machine that's in the fitness centre, to allow for more space.

Rooms were very clean. Staff at the Barcelo are exceptionally nice. The Royal restaurant on the 9th floor is definitely the best, especially their manger George. George is as professional as they come. Super nice, quick witted, and very particular in how he presents himself, and his dinner service is 2nd to NONE!….Nice job George. See you next year!

The room was very clean, could have used more towels. The staff at each restaurant was exceptional. I have a seafood allergy and they took extra care and I never felt at risk. The food was very good as well. The grounds were well kept and clean.Better management of beach chairs too many people saving chairs and not using them for hours while we didn’t have any. Overall great week and we will be back!

We had an amazing family holiday escape at the Barcelona. Immaculate attention to details, attentive and caring staff with pride displayed within every interaction. Restaurant reservations are needed but appreciated during peak Christmas/new year week as it’s virtually impossible to get a reservation or table offsite for 6! Bar staff is amazing —welcoming with wonderful entertainment and quality drinks! Only suggestion… a deli sandwich/salad bar during the day. Light fare, grab and go beach lunch boxes would be amazing upgrade! Otherwise wonderful stay and we look forward to staying again—- you can’t beat the location!

Desk staff was rude at check in. Was told the room would be ready at 4pm. Came back at 4:22pm, the room was not ready and I was asked to wait for an undetermined amount of time. All other people in our travel group proceeded to get their rooms. By 5:05 no one informed me of any update so I had to ask again. The room took another 10 minutes. After walking halfway across the hotel to what looked like a jail hallway of rooms, my key did not work. Once access to the room was sorted, there was hair all over the bathroom, sand on the floor and left over items in the garbage. The safe also did not work. The facilities generally speaking leave much to be desired and unless you’re trying to diet, the food is below edible standards. There are no chairs at the pool or beach left by 8am and drinks are sub par at best.
