We just returned yesterday from a week at the Colonial. First off, we reserved a king deluxe suite and got a room with 2 double beds on the ground floor. We had booked through a travel agent and paid higher rates to ensure a good room. They would not accommodate any changes. I suspect they had given our room away... More

Never wrote a review before but felt obligated to do so this time. This is our second trip to the Mayan Riviera, stayed at the Bahia Principa last time. This resort is great for families. We always had something to do. Our family has two teenaged girls and a toddler, and we had everyone covered. The teenagers went minigolfing, played... More

Where to start... 1. Reception/staff helpfulness and consistency First lets begin at the check in, I was traveling with a wedding party. Upon check in, we asked to be moved to a non ground floor room based on reviews that I had read (we were the first to check in) and told that we could not change rooms, HOWEVER friends... More

I think that a healthy attitude about a vacation is very important and worrying about the small things can ultimately affect enjoying the rest of the trip. We were at the... More

What a wonderful, relaxing, perfect week! I would go back in a flash, we all loved the resort. 9 of us just returned from Barcelo ranging from 70 to 8 years old. One of our favorite things about the resort was the size- it was easy to navigate and you weren't exhausted from your hike to dinner or the beach,... More

I love this hotel. We will be back in April 13. The beach and food are excellent. More

Ok, this resort is great. I'm not a very picky reviewer so yeah. I traveled with my husband and 10 year old daughter. We had the best time of our lives. Drive from airport is super long. Although they were training a new driver so it took longer. When we first arrived they offered us free drinks. We went in... More
