"We fell through the cracks at check-in. We were not given information about the services, property, restaurants, etc. We traveled with another couple and in the process of finding a joint "concierge" we were left for almost an hour with no information. Once we were given our rooms, we also did not receive information about the large property until we asked for it. It took us a while to figure out the amenities and activities (into the next day). We were given some perks by the management (a cabana for the day) to make up for the faulty start, but it colored our stay and the four of us ended up feeling that we would not return."

"Great property with lots to explore. Multitude of restaurant and dining options across the various parts of the resort - buffets were a little hit or miss but some of the restaurants have some really nice dishes. We booked a Family Selection option and found the check in / check out process quite cumbersome as typically had one person dealing with a queue of families checking in or out. Quick communication with the butler service isn't WhatsApp was a handy option as allowed for quick access to room service and shuttles for moving around the expansive property. We travelled in April so beaches had a lot of seaweed and while the property cleared occasionally it's definitely a factor to consider if you're looking for ocean swimming / beachfront dining (the smell!!)"

"Catalonia Riviera Maya can be a good option if you’re visiting Quintana Roo on a budget, but there are a few things to keep in mind before booking. First, there isn’t a traditional beach—just a small bay where you can swim. It’s still enjoyable, but it may not meet expectations if you’re looking for long sandy stretches. Restaurant reservations are quite limited. For example, during our 9-night stay, we were only able to book 4 dinners. You can try going to the restaurants around 6 PM to check for last-minute availability (often around 9 PM), but it’s not guaranteed. Also, meals are restricted to one appetizer, one main course, and one dessert per person. Rooms are decent if you book a deluxe option, though they could definitely use some renovations. The resort grounds are well-maintained, and most of the staff are friendly, though we did encounter a few less welcoming interactions. Food overall is average—definitely edible, but not a highlight of the stay. On the positive side, the spa and gym facilities are excellent. The Italian restaurant stood out with great service, especially from Alejandra and Lucas. Overall: A decent budget-friendly resort with some trade-offs, especially in dining and beach quality."

"Perfect property for peace and tranquility."

"This was our second stay at Barcelo Maya Palace. We love having so many options and being able to play at each of the resort's pools, water slide parks, and beaches. The resort's location is also so nice and close to the Xplor and Xel-ha parks. One disappointment this visit was we weren't able to get a reservation at the teppanyaki restaurant, even thought we inquired when we were checking in."

"Despite a frequent problem in all the resorts with Seaweed issues this time of year… the staff did a good job removing as much and often as possible. The food is excellent, The property is lovely. We have been to Barcelo Riviera Maya Palace numerous times. This was our first time to stay at the adults only location. We will definitely come again and again. Very safe and relaxing."
