We have been to The Barcelo Maya resort multiple times. We keep going back to the same resort because the beach is beautiful and always clean and the snorkeling is good as well. The staff are always nice even when they can’t fix a problem they still try to be nice. The resort itself is huge. The pools are beautiful. The swim up bars have great service. The rooms are always clean. We have also had one of the rooms with the hot tub on the balcony and that was kind of fun, but I’m not sure that’s worth the money. The reservation style dining is good. The show at Tokyo is fun and enjoyable. The buffet food is decent. I wouldn’t say it is outstanding, but it’s definitely edible. The upside of the buffet is the servers are always attentive. The resort itself is always clean and you get to see iguanas all over the place well except in your room. If I had to say the only downfall of this resort seems to be, they have an issue getting you checked in on time. If you’re ready for the fact that you are not going to get your room at 3 o’clock when they say check is you don’t get mad about it, but it is definitely an issue they need to work on. Make sure that unlike my wife at the little stands, you don’t pay full price. There is always room to haggle!! The shops at the mall and all the little shops in the courtyard will all haggle price with you. Do not pay their original asking price. Also for transportation to the hotel from the airport, it is cheaper and easier to book it through Barcelo while you are booking your room. On previous trips, we felt that the drinks have been watered down but on this trip for sure they were not. If you plan on going in the ocean, I recommend water shoes because you can walk forever in the water and be able to see and touch the bottom but there are rocks and stuff that hurt your feet. If you don’t have the water shoes. Overall, we absolutely love this resort and plan on going again. I also recommend watching some videos about the resort so you have an idea of what to expect. Try to find videos that are non-biased and kind of a Karen base approach. If you are a laid-back non-uptight person you’re gonna love this place just don’t expect it to be the four seasons because you’re not paying for the four seasons. Believe me from my experience this is one of the nicest resorts for the money you spend, and I believe it is a great deal.
