TripAdvisor Traveler Rating

Loved our stay, we are beach people and the sun and sand were wonderful. The resort is smaller and comfortable and clean. We were Premium guests and enjoyed the extra perks would recommend the upgrade. This is the place for rest and relaxation it does not have the Cancún party vibe. We will be back thank you Barcelo!

Our stay at Barceló Huatulco in 2015 was one of our best travel experiences. Unfortunately, upon returning after a decade, we were disappointed to find that the overall hotel atmosphere has significantly declined.

We were here for Christmas and New Year’s, and the NYE event was interesting…… The entertainment was good but it was so hot & hard to walk around as there was tree roots everywhere & very humid out we ended up watching the fireworks from our balcony… plus when we arrived the food was cold. The premium level is not that good to be honest. Yes you get a sea view & mini fridge but the lounge could be better with better cell service, and no blender for blended drinks & service can be very slow or no service at all. The à la carte restaurants are a hit or miss…… the only really excellent one was the Italian. Seafood was very odd. Buffets don’t change very much and we got so sick of the same food almost every single day. Bring your own pillow from home as the hotel ones are flat as cakes….. & have bug bite relief as I got bites galore from sand fleas on the beach. We did do the spa one day and found the employees were extremely friendly & amazing especially on our massages except the gym was right underneath OPENLY so you could easily hear that music during your services and sauna use…… pools are okay with an adult separated area from the children’s except the kids area is too small….. One elevator has been out of service the entire time we’re here and it’s been annoying and no stairwell close to us. We ended up doing a couple tours with a fellow named Oscar Velásquez (Huatulco) and he is the best tour guide in the area and always has water in the back!

I was there with my family for new years celebration. I hired a private taxi for arriving. But the hotel has also some public taxis with affordable price. Barcelo all inclusive is a great experience, with some minors improvements (food). - Rooms, very good, clean and with all the necessary accesories (iron, hair dryer, frigo bar, etc). - Restaurants, very good, all day buffet, varieaty of dishes, but sometimes certain dishes were extremely salty - Amenities, very good, there is a lot of activities in the pool, kids club, every night in the theather there are different activities, like casino, mexican show, fantasy show, acuatic sport, we were able to use the kayaks and sailboats. Also the gym and the spa. - Staff in general excelent and very good.

We love this resort. This is our 3rd time here. Lovely location, food and friendly staff. Anabel with reservations is amazing and ensured that all of our requests were considered. Very efficient and courteous. We are coming back again next year and she has already helped us with our booking! Pavel was awesome organizing our transportation to and from the airport! The location is amazing, but the staff make this vacation a special experience.
