The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Delicious Diverse Dining

The meal selection at Barcelo was very good, with something for everyone. I particularly enjoyed the array of options available, including hamburgers and hot dogs for those unsure about trying local cuisine. There was always hot food available, and the specialty restaurants were a good experience too.

Relaxing Beach Time

The beach at the hotel was fantastic, with perfectly clean, smooth sand. I loved being able to walk for miles along the shore. The pools were amazing too, never overcrowded and offering a refreshing escape from the sun. It truly made my vacation enjoyable!

I had a wonderful experience at this hotel with stunning views and lots of activities right by the beach, making it an ideal spot for families. The room was well-kept and comfortable, complete with a king-sized bed, but the dining options could use some improvement, especially in variety. I enjoyed the outdoor amenities and the proximity to the fishing spots and enticing beach. However, some premium services felt inconsistent, and I encountered a bit of attitude from some staff at the front desk, which dampened the otherwise lovely stay.
