This place was absolute paradise. I have been all over Mexico, several times, and this was one of my finest resort experiences. There is no question this resort is deserving of its 4.5 star rating. The rooms were fabulous. Large rooms, large balconies and large bathrooms. The resort is very lush with beautifully manicured grounds with palm trees, grassy areas... more

This hotel was AMAZING! There is no way anyone could fault it. ROOMS- the rooms are huge. they each have a sleeping area and and a sitting area, with a T.V. in each of the areas. the bathrooms are massive as well and have large showers and 2 sinks with counters. the rooms were cleaned until they were spotless daily... more

We loved the Karmina! Staff was wonderful. It is a beautiful resort. When we went in April, 2009 the weather was great. Food is good, nothing exceptional but not bad also. Did not have any problems checking in and our room was very spacious and clean. Would definately go again!!! more

This resort is very well taken care of. The food was good for an all-inclusive. The staff is very friendly and hospitable. The specialty restaurants were good and worth a visit. Take a chance and leave the property for a meal or two. Our best restaurant visit came from a referral from the front desk. It was a small restaurant... more

This beautiful hotel,taking over by Barcelo a few years ago,is a modern,spacious hotel in large grounds along the Pacific ocean. It bills itself as a 5 star all-inclusive hotel.Indeed many aspects of the hotel merit this claim;however,the meals ware served buffet style and during the days we were there were very poor.For instance,a billed seafood buffet contained hardly any seafood... more

The hotel was O-kay, looked older than other resorts nearby. I was VERY disappointed with the TINY private beach, SERIOUSLY its swimming pool size. I expected it to be a little more plush for the money I was paying. However, the room was nice, very large and comfortable. Shower had great water pressure, a must. The shampoo and conditioner combo... more

This is an honest and truthful review of our recent stay at the barcelo karmina palace. We arrived on thursday 11th of june for 4 nights. We received a top floor junior suite with ocean view and sunny balcony. The grounds of the hotel are very well kept and clean with lovely flowers. There are a number of pools around... more

Grounds are beautiful with 8 pools. All staff was helpful and friendly and polite. The food was abundant and good. Drinks also. Rooms are spacious with private balconies. I have stayed at top hotels and paid exhorbitant rates and found plenty to complain about. At $139.00 (priceline) for two persons this felt like a steal. Really enjoyed four day stay. more

Our family travelled with Transat Holidays to the Barcel Karmina Palace April 17-27/09. There were 8 of us in the group, my husband, myself, our two boys (6 & 3), my Mom, my Aunt and my mother & father in-law. This being our first trip woth the kids, I didn't know what to expect. The flight from Toronto was good... more
