In general, a good resort with a beautiful view, a good place for family vacations. However, the restaurants are bad and the service is not very good, they forget to bring the order and you will not be asked to refill the drink. You can eat at the buffet and not go to restaurants, the food is the same.

As a first timer in Mexico, staying at Barcelo Maya Colonial was a great first time experience. We did not go out of the resort but we were not bored as there are a lot of things to do and see at the resort as well. It was indeed relaxing and enjoyable as we did nit have to worry about anything because everything was already in the resort. The food was great and had a lot of selections from kids to adults

Very old and outdated rooms with mold around the shower area in the bathroom at Beach Barceló. Careful, Barceló switches resort without telling you. We initially booked Colonial and were switched to Barceló beach instead. In my opinion the worst resort out of the group. Most people we met went to eat to colonial resort because of limited options at the Barceló Beach.

Barceló Maya was AHMAZING! Huge, so much to do! The room was clean. A little on the small Side but we literally slept, dressed for the beach and breakfast, and showered in there-so no need for it to be bigger. The pools are awe inspiringly huge. The beach has sugary soft sand, the ocean is stunning! The food was good, always find something you’ll like. The a la cartes were great! Especially loved the Italian Trattoria and Kyoto! So well laid out! The bus was a great option if your legs are feeling tired! We lived it!

Lots for kids to do, and easy to walk from room to pool to beach to restaurants. We were only able to do one a la carte, which was a bit disappointing. We enjoyed the wave runner at the water park, and we did swim with the dolphins, which was a great experience! The drink service at pool bars was not as good as other resorts we’ve been to. Our kids enjoyed water polo, table tennis, beach volleyball, and the water basketball (lane) pool. Overall a 9/10 experience and we will return 👌

We booked for Barcelo Colonial for 7 days and 6 nights but when we arrived we’ve been moved to Barcelo Beach which all the way on the end side. I didn't like that because I booked Colonial for a reason because of kids loving the waterpark in there. Anyway we have to walk almost everyday to go to Colonial to enjoy the waterpark which is not very convenient. The food was not bad but also not great. It's alright, the staff are great very helpful except the front desk not helpful at all and rude. The property is very outdated but I mean it's decent. The beach is the most beautiful in that resort I loved the beach I loved that we were able to do snorkelling with my kids it was amazing. But would will I come back? Maybe but I would book under palace or premium this time.

Expect the best, be prepared for worst. We just came back from a vacation with 9 people. This review is based on the resort/building we stayed in, don't know how the other ones are. We stayed in the Colonial/Jalisco building. Let me start with pros as there are only a few. Like most of the reviews state, the grounds are immaculate and beautiful. The staff is nice and accommodating (although my baseball cap got jacked from the room). The pools are clean and in good condition. The beach is sandy, however, there are rocks on the beach and in the water so either wear water shoes or be careful where you step. The AC in the room was adequate. The food in the buffet was good, no issues with intestinal problems. We also did enjoy the shows in the theater especially the kids on the Fantasia night. Now the cons, where do I start? It seems like the room wasn't updated in ages, as there was mold all over the bathroom (and i'm allergic to it), on the door, shower, floor, you name it (see pictures). The water in both the sink and tub had a very slow drain and the tub plug was broken off. There is no fan in the bathroom so when you take a shower, it steams up like in a sauna (hence the mold, do they not clean it?) Forget getting a pool chair if you're not out there at 6am reserving it by throwing a towel or flip flops and then not showing up till 11 or so. You don't pay to reserve the chair, so a towel on it does not mean it's yours to use. Who does that? It should be firs

The territory is enormous! Easy to get lost! Not enough bar tenders for such huge amount of guests

I stayed with my grandson in this resort 2d time. It’s perfect for kids: there are 2 water parks, playground, dolphins pool. Beach clean and big, but I had to reserve chairs at 6am to stay in shadow. Food was good and diverse. I don’t eat any meat or chicken, but I could find a lot of food that I like and can use. Only one bed thing: staff don’t speak English and never rush.

Great all inclusive pool-based resort. We had a blast. Played tennis and went sailing, too. Great shows every night. For food, we only did buffets, as getting a reservation at the higher-end option is virtally impossible. But not a problem as there is lots of choice. We did not enjoy the ocean due to bad weather.
