Just returned from a week at Barcelo Punta Cana and now understand all these seemingly contrary high and low reviews. So much depends on when you go and where your room is located. We arrived late- midnight- so no long wait for check in. Weekends have a special for locals who know the routines, so it was packed: no reservations... More

Room was not what I expected, too smal bedroom and poor decoration, No hot water, very old TV with no cable, poor ilumination and the shower push botton did not worked, In the other hand, excellent food and personnel service, beautiful and confortable pool areas, night show was very good and the disco was ok. Play ground for children is... More

If you are going to want to relax and fell comfprtable on your honeymoon, as all newly weds should want, I do not reccommend this place. Your honeymoon is one vacation you can't redo and ours was ruined by picking this hotel. It is loud with music (rap) pumping all over. The hotel allows vendors to swarm their pool area... More

Our holiday started a rough when the front desk couldn't find our reservation. And yes believe the the reviews, there is an issue with the front desk. Very disorganized, not very helpful. But by the next day we had everything straightened out by the girls up in the Club Premium. If you plan on going to this resort pay the... More

We got here at night, it is a beautiful hotel, but do not judge a book by its cover! It was dirty! Our room had bugs, and our toilet did not flush!!! No one came to look at it either! We only stayed one night and never again!

I am a travel agent and travel all over the Caribbean and check out many hotels. If this hotel was rated a 5 star, I would not give it the best reviews, but it is EXACLTY and more of what you would expect a 3 1/2 star to be, which is exactly what it is rated. For the people that... More

We just returned to Dublin after spending the most fantastic two weeks at the Barcelo hotel. We can honestly say it was the best holiday we ever had from the time we checked in until the time we left. Sandy (manager) and all her lovely staff were so welcoming and the treatment we got was very high standard. This was... More

My wife stayed at the Barcelo for our honeymoon. We had a tough time finding a place that we wanted to stay. The main reason that we chose the Barcelo was that they had a package that included airfare and so we were sold. The resort is quite a drive from the Punta Cana airport. When we arrived we were...

I stayed at the Barceló Punta Cana beginning of April 2013. Looked great when we pulled up but it went downhill from there. Check in line was terrible. Two people working behind the desk, no specific line, people cutting each other, took over an hour to check in and our room wasn't even ready. Restaurants/Bars -- Food was ok, not... More
