Occidental Caribe: Amazing vacation!

The pool was amazing, beach was breathtaking. Bartenders were super friendly, nightlife was great! Ocean view from our room was beautiful. Can't wait to go back again next year! I will recommend to all

Occidental Costa Cancun: Fabulous 2 week at Barcelo Costa Cancun

Warm welcome- room upgraded on arrival! Concierge -Ivett Munguia-most accomodating! Facilities immaculate.Al la carte restaurant Clare Boya- manager fabulous! Waitresses-Juani and Sandra -the most loving ladies!. Bartenders, activity directors were so inclusive and friendly to all!. Resort accomodated a Super Bowl party- game day food and all! Food better than any previous resorts we have been at. Beach a bit small, but away many days to the nearby excursions. Would absolutely stay here again!!

Barcelo Maya Colonial: Beautiful resort

My husband and I stayed here from Jan 28 - Feb4/15. We've been at this location several times in the past, the last time approximately 6 years ago. Many new additions, very beautiful mall. One thing we noted now is there are a lot of young kids at this resort, never bothered us but seems to be geared more to families. The grounds spotless, food great, especially the Seafood and Japanese restaurants. Rooms cleaned daily, staff great, pools spotless, beach kept clean, lots of chairs. Overall no co [... read more]mplaints.

Occidental Caribe: Beautiful amenities

We stayed from From February 8-12, 2015. We travelled as a couple with our 6 year old daughter. We didn't participate in the resort events, didn't eat at the restaurants and did not attend night shows or casino. We did indulge in the wonderful pools and beach and loved it. We were not a fan of getting up early to save loungers with our towels - but whatever. Breakfast buffets were busy but good and evening buffets were not busy at all. Always found something yummy to eat. The pool buffett suited [... read more] us just fine for midday meals. Our room was 7202 and we had great access to the pool. Just wish our room had been more up to date and modern. We would stay again, but we would get a better room...

Occidental Caribe: Punta Cana Paradise!

Location, weather, staff, food and excursions were amazing. Unfortunately upon arrival, 2 hours after check in, our room was not ready. Every day we had to make a complaint and search down room service staff for wash clothes and towels. The rooms were cleaned well but not stocked well. We loved the location but would try another resort.

Barcelo Ixtapa: Good resort

Overall clean resort with friendly staff. They do need to work on the sushi bar. It was not a good experience. I liked that they would exchange dollars (either US or Canadian) into pesos at a competitive rate.

Barcelo Huatulco: Good resort!

Pros: good hotel, great location, good rooms, good food, good facilities. Cons: kids club not active when supposed to, not good entertainment for kids in the evening, kids pool slides close 6 pm. Sometimes only one of the two buffet restaurants is open for dinner. Waiters are not really taking care of clients so they deserve a tip.

Occidental Costa Cancun: Excellent resort for 4 Star

Hotel has good service and very good food, special reservation dinner like spanish dinner was excellent, only no Internet WI-FI service include package, you need buy daily pass. Overall really good hotel.

Barcelo Bavaro Beach: Fabulous Resort!!

Barcelo Bavaro Beach (adults Only) was a beautiful resort with stunning views. The staff were exceptionally friendly and professional. The resort itself was very clean, new, and beautiful. The food was great and the restaurants were diverse. If you are not one to lay in the sun all day long, the activities available were great (yoga on the beach, volleyball, aerobics, games) and the staff that ran these activities were so friendly and fun. It was nice to be in the adults only section because it  [... read more]was quieter, more private and we had our own entertainment at night (circus show, magic shows, dancing shows, etc). We found the only cons being the WIFI ($, poor service) and smoking (allowed in many areas). Otherwise, it was such a fabulous experience and I would highly recommend it and I would return!

Occidental Caribe: barcelo punta cana dominica

The resort was the perfect size everything close by. Pools beautiful with entertainment going on most of day. If you want a quiet pool theres one of them too. Also this resort is right on the beautiful ocean. There was some seaweed which was cleaned up. Food in buffet ok but in a la cartes very good. Snack bars around pool good also. One day no hot water for shower but was promply fixed

Barcelo Maya Beach Resort: Fantastico!!!! Loved it.

The Barcelona has tons to offer, amazing beaches, plenty to do, the a la carts were great and the buffets were excellent. The only warning it's a long drive from airport but when you get there it's worth it

Sunscape Dominican Beach: Punta Cana -Good Times.

Resort is above average. Staff is great! Rooms...clean but low water pressure. Grounds very well kept and maintained. Food was better than expected. Buffets were good buffets. (lots of selection) Ala Carts...some were very good/some very bad. No Canadian Whiskey on site. (bummer but not a deal breaker). Beach issues with seaweed rolling in. Out of the resort's control but they worked hard daily to clean it up. Pools were a great alternative. Felt safe and comfortable to whole time.

Barcelo Maya Colonial: Second visit

This was our second visit to Barcelo Resort, we will likely go there again next year as it has everything we require. Food choices, service and entertainment . The new mall and new restaurants were exellent. A great addition to what they already had.

Occidental Costa Cancun: Best ever

Nice clean modern rooms. All the staff were friendly and beyond curtious. The food was the best. Unbelievable variety. Will be back next year. We had taxi and buses right outside resort. Lots of thinks to do and a nearby river lagoon walkway park. Also nightly entertainment was fun yet things got quiet at 11th so made for a good nights sleep.

Occidental Caribe: Excellent Resort

This is my fourth times at this hotel and still satisfy overall, food still very good, rooms needs a bit of update but very clean, entertainment is ok but could be updated. In general was excellent...

Occidental Caribe: OK trip!

The exterior of the hotel is really nice! The rooms look like they are very well used! We had several issues with the room e.g. our safe didn't lock; the toilet seat was broken; the trash can in the bathroom was broken; the lock on the sliding veranda doors was broken; the water in the rooms wasn't potable; and the air conditioner leaked in the ceiling making the dropped ceiling stringers all rusty and leaking on the floor every day; Staff did come to fix most of the issues soon after they were  [... read more]reported (sometimes it took several tries). Many of the front desk staff hardly speak a word of English (or French) and had attitude issues when dealing with the clientele. Most of the other hotel workers were very nice and although they didn't speak much English at least tried to help. We both had stomach issues almost the whole 9 days we were there. We stopped drinking the water in the restaurants after a few days and stopped eating salads for the last three. We've been home for 4 days now and we're still suffering from queasy stomachs. Unfortunately while we were there, we had rain (sometimes a lot!) for 6 days and it was mostly cloudy on the other days (just bad luck I guess, not a hotel problem). Oh yes and then there was the wind that brought up tons of seaweed onto the beaches for the last 4 days. So much that they couldn't be kept clean!

Occidental Tucancun: Nice Resort

The hotel is small and easy to navigate and the staff are friendly. There are people always cleaning and doing maintenance.Buffets are not that exciting but adequate. The beach is nice and hotel is right on the hotel zone. Rooms were clean and beds wee comfortable.

Sunscape Dominican Beach: Nice vacation at Barcelo Dominican Beach

Hi to every one! My wife and I just returned from Barceló Dominican Beach, Punta Cana D.R. It’s a nice resort. Thanks to the management. Apparently they hire good people and train them well. First of all we really appreciate the security – no intruders on the property. No beggars, no beach vendors, more over – even no Vacation Club agents. Thank you gentlemen again. That was a nice stay. Our room was Honey Moon Ocean Front suite – no comments. Just a few things: clean, the beach and the [... read more] beach bar just under our balcony, Jacuzzi with the ocean view indeed and a nice maid service. Dominga Brito was one of them. She was and I believe still is very good. The garden crew is good. The beach and swimming pool are nice and carefully groomed. Even though a night storm once left the garden crew a lot of work to remove the sea weeds washed up on the beach that night. But the guys did it. The bar crew is amazing and very friendly. Santa, Claudio, Brilon, Enso Luis are very good and apparently the youngest of them Alexander is a really hard working boy probably he will become a manager at some time in the future ‘cause as his colleges he knows already how to work properly. There is another guy and a very good one but unfortunately I can’t tell his name. Sorry. Speaking about the bars we’ll never forget Ricardo from the Lobby bar. He is a professional. But Ricardo please tell your co-worker (don’t know his name) when one asks for a glass of Napoleon the bartender should not offer any ice. Now a few words about Barle Café that my wife and I highly recommend. To our eyes we used to get there the best dessert after our dinners. Ask Anibelis and Bethania for Carribiano coffee it is not only tasty but the way they cook it is a little and exciting entertainment! Food in general is very good to our eyes. The only remark in our opinion deserves perhaps only the egg station. For example my breakfast consists only from eggs, some cheese and a bit of cooked ham nothing else. That’s why I am especially anxious to the way my eggs cooked. If I ask for three eggs sunny side up the egg specialist may not piled them onto my plate anyhow as the yolks must not be ruined this way by his negligence. If it easy over the yolks must not be tremendously overcooked! It is important! A real professional (and a consumer) may cry seeing that. Though it’s a trifle the rest is perfect. The staff is very friendly. Our special thanks to Anna Maria – main buffet, to senior Daniel Barga from the grill bar at the beach that gentleman perfectly took care of us even late after the midnight. There are some a la carte restaurants. We regret not visiting a Spanish one that was our own fault. But we enjoyed Mexican and Brazilian a lot. The snack bar at the beach completely satisfied our lunch needs. What not to like? The night’s entertainment are beautiful. The animation crew are hardworking guys even though we didn’t take part in it but yet it is always fun to watch other people dancing on the beach or doing some other activities. We had a nice socializing with many people from the States, Canada, Switzerland, France, Germany and some East European countries (my wife and I we do speak languages). That was a pleasure as well. It was a nice stay (our fourth time in D.R. and number 11 on Caribbean in total) my wife and I will recommend this resort to our friends and our fellow tourist in general. Thank you ladies and gentlemen.

Barcelo Gran Faro Los Cabos: Great Resort Hotel

After the hurricane ravaged the towns of Cabo SanLucas and San Jose del Cabo....we were hesitant to book a trip there. However, we did and were quite surprised by the condition of the Barceló Resort. They had done a remarkable job in the repairs of the building itself. The grounds were in excellent shape . The beach had changed shape somewhat , but was still a pleasure to relax on. The food , the staff the whole big picture was fantastic. . Don't hesitate to book there.

Barcelo Solymar: very nice resort

I have been to this Hotel many times but this time it was no good. oh the service was very good and clean but the maintenance was very poor. every second Day there was no hot Water, the Pool bar the Boards were full of holes you had to watch were you walked there was many more. I was there 2 years ago and it was not like that. But we had a good time.
