Always a great time at the Barcelo. Special thanks to the Strikers team, Miriam, Emily and Gerett for going out of their way to help celebrate our friends birthdays!

Dec 01, 2025Love it, second time here!
I have been to this location twice with family (dif. hotels Maya Caribe and Maya Tropical), we go for a 6-7 nights every time. Its a large resort so lots of space, walking and things to do (several pools, private beach, Mall & shopping area for handicrafts, gym, spa, multiple restaurants & bars, at extra costs: water park for kids, surfing lessons, mini golf, bowling, pool game, escape room on site, etc.). Lots of variety on the food choices for all (fruit, salad, pasta, dessert bar, vegetarian and non vegetarian choices, omelet station, soups, plenty of drinks/juices, coffee, tea, bread, etc.), also several specialty restaurants that need reservation (incl. Mexican, Italian, Spanish, Japanese, Sea Food..). Shows every night, entertainment by the pool (aquafit, zumba & games). Rooms are well kept, clean, beds are comfortable. Overall the place is well maintained. Service is great, staff is friendly and helpful - please tip them. Location - about 1hr drive South from Cancun airport (so it will cost you abt USD 80 one way) but then you are ~15mins to Xcaret parks. Some potential improvement needed: no protection from sun at the beach but plenty of areas by the pool. Towel areas are a bit far away depending on where you are placed. Check in process takes a long time - need to speed up the process or add staff at check-in times. They have some low quality shampoo, conditioner and soap in the showers, so if you are picky like me bring your own. Overall I love this place, its pretty decent and likely better than other resorts, so you get good value for the price you pay and a great experience guaranteed.

Water Park Animation
We booked the Surf n Ride for an hour and we had a lot of fun. It was our first time my girlfriend and I. Andres was our instructor. He helped us a lot, gave us many tips and made sure we progress and had fun. I highly recommend, they are doing an amazing job!

Really fun time with the family!
Andres was very helpful in helping us learn how to surf! Might be a little harder for some who are inexperienced with board sports. Andres was right there with us the entire time, slowly holding our hand and pushing us on every run. Would definitely do it again!

Great stay
Incredibly helpful staff and great ambiance. Beach is great — people ignore that many hotels in Riviera Maya don’t have nice beaches.
