I spent 2 weeks at this hotel with my mum at the beginning of August. Upon arrival we were shocked at how vast the hotel was and for the first week we didn’t get very involved and found it quite hard to get to know people.

Overall the hotel was clean and comfortable and the staff were helpful (apart from some down by the pool side bar).

I just stayed one week in this four stars hotel, traveling alone. I am a 36 single male and was looking for a place to spend a nice week. The hotel is very nice and the service is good. There is a nice pool and a smaller pool for kids only.

My boyfriend and I stayed at the Barcelo for two weeks and while we were there, we really did enjoy it.



The only thing that let this hotel down was the food in the restaurant. I have to say it was pretty awful. At the... read more

A little too far from the beach but the free bus is a help but we mostly used the taxis as not too expensive. The local 'yumbo' shopping centre is very near and there is an excellent eating place in next street next to Harry’s bar.
