Great Good and Meh

My 2 oldest boys and I stayed here for 4 nights. We travel into Mexico frequently and had been to PV before and wanted to stay in a different area. We have stayed in the main part of PV as well as in Nuevo V. By far the best location. Great rooms, the staff was amazing, the drinks kept flowing, and the pool was a ton of fun. Great almost private beach and really couldn't be happier with the entire stay... except for the food. I want to make sure to be clear. Very happy and would stay there again. Food was not horrible but there was only one "wow" dinner and everything else was just above edible. I am not a chef, but I cook for my family of 9 a ton and it blows my mind that the selection of mexican food was so weak. Portions were very small and selection was limited. A pool snack bar needs wings, guac, chicken tenders, shrimp or gobenador tacos, nachos with some options, ect... They need to go stay at the Pueblo Bonito Sunset in Cabo or Hacienda Encantada in Cabo and take note. 3rd all inclusive I have stayed at in PV and none had above average food. Shout out to Raul in Los Arcos, Erica, Jesus, and Claudia in Premium.... Thank you!!!

The resort is super beautiful. I found everything was very clean and the staff was great! Alfredo behind the swim up bar was very friendly and always made the best drinks! The guy at the front desk was very welcoming and very sweet to us, I wish I could remember his name! Our room was decorated with balloons, champagne and chocolate cover strawberries for our anniversary. Thanks Barceló family for a wonderful week!

We love this place! It’s our second time and will definitely be coming back soon. Many thanks to the staff—especially Alfredo the pool bar tender—for making us feel right at home!!! Looking forward to another great visit in the near future!

The rooms at this resort are very very nice, the beach is lovely. The water is clear. The staff are very friendly. Especially Alfredo at the pool bar. He took great care of us and was very professional and friendly. Good, the restaurants are nice, some of the spaces are a bit echo and loud, but Que sera sera.

Contrary to some of the reviews I read, this resort was excellent with good food options at the buffet. Service was great, rooms were clean and I would definitely stay at Barcelo Puerto Vallarta. Juan was our server some of the nights and he was excellent. Juan provided superb service.
