An incredible 10 day stay with family and friends.

Tracy M on Mar 07, 2026

We were a group of 13 family and friends from Canada and we had an incredible time. Beautiful grounds, very friendly staff and very accommodating for our group size. We enjoyed meals at all three specialty restaurants and the buffet. We celebrated two birthdays here and the staff brought cakes, sang happy birthday and made the celebrations more special. At the buffet they quickly set up a large table to accommodate our group and let us know to come the next night and they would have a table for us! Shout out to Eduardo, Victor and Ricardo at the buffet and a big thank you to Ximena at guest services! We enjoyed the tennis courts, basketball court and we had a birthday mini putt golf tournament, and played a couple of games of pool in the games room. So much fun. The beach is lovely, and you can snorkel in the bay. We had premium level and we felt is was worth the extra cost. We were welcomed by Adelfa at the premium lounge nightly, she took good care of us. My husband had his first pedicure ever and now I believe he will have more. Mariana at the spa did a fabulous job on his feet (thank you Mariana!). And then there is Fernando bringing us our daily refreshments poolside. Fernando works hard, always a smile on his face and remembers your drink preference day after day, simply the best!! We met many people here that come here again and again, we can understand why. This is our first trip to Huatulco and most likely not our last. One more day here, we will be back, thank you Barcelo for everything!

Nice resort to visit

jaynie22 (Edmonton, Canada) on Mar 06, 2026

Beach - water is rough so we didn't go in. However we enjoyed the palapa and the pools. The food was very good variety but most food in the 2 main restaurants was cold (lukewarm). The a la cart restaurants were excellent. We had an excellent room and everything on the resort is easy to access which was a bonus as we have mobility issues.

Very nice place to stay, just needs more casual dining options

Judi G on Mar 04, 2026

Need more variety of casual dining places to eat dinner, only casual dining place was buffet, only other choice was specialty restaurants with formal wear - men long pants, closed shoes which is super hot to wear.
