3 star All-inclusive hotels in Riviera Maya, Quintana Roo

Stayed @ Barcelo Maya Caribe 3-26 to 4-9. 7th time to this property and when we mentioned this, we were upgraded to a Club Premium room, which are the rooms that face the carribean sea. Was another great trip! "Beach" section was remodeled since last year to include new lobby, lobby bar, pool area and dolphinarium added. "Caribe" section to be renovated this year and work has already begun in area just off the lobby between "Caribe" and "Colonial" sections. Hope they let the jungle areas between hotel buldings at the sections grow back in post renovations, as this provides privacy as well as nice views of greenery and wildlife. Everything was wonderful and staff were great and worked hard to make sure everyone had a good time and always said "hola" as you passed them going to and fro. The beaches, pools and grounds were kept well maintained. Lots of room to relax o the beach and never felt we were crowded. Only negative is the S.B. kids being allowed needs to be corrected immediately! They took over the top end "Tropical" section's pool and there were 200 to 250, (I counted) + climbing all over the bar area and packed near it. Got so out of hand that hotel security had to intervene and cut off wrist bands of rowdy S.B. kids several times, which cost $50.00 to replace. We ended up avoiding this pool, as we didn't want to deal with it. It's sad really because we love this resort and don't want the experience ruined and end up going somewhere else because of rowdy drunk kids.

Sunshine, surf, and relaxation abounded, exactly what we went for. Pool area is noisy but easy to avoid if you prefer the serenity of a quiet beach. We loved it!

Wonderful small facility in great location. Not the place to go if you are looking for a luxury experience. The staff is welcoming and helpful.

We are a family of five, kids are 13,15 and 18. We had a great time. Hotel has an awesome staff who are very friendly. Hotel is kept very clean and has great facilites, like the trapeze. We are a family of picky eaters, but we all loved the food. Lots of choices and all very good. The beach is beautiful and the water super clean. We would go back again and recommend it to our friends and family. Loved the location in Playacar. Mexican market located right across the street.

We have stayed at this resort several times and always have a great time!

There is nothing bad to say about this resort. It's absolutely beautiful! Stuff is super polite and everyone tries to help you with everything. They speak both English and Spanish. Rooms were always cleaned. No reservations are needed at the specialty restaurants. Blue Moon restaurant is EXCELLENT! Leave a small tip at the restaurants, even buffets, and the waiters will love you! After all they are working for absolutely minimum wage with no tips. The beach is not as beautiful as Maroma and there is some sea grass in the water from time to time, but you can walk past Secrets resort, there is great beach that way. I had an amazing week there. Highly recommend this resort.

I had a very pleasant stay - my room was quiet, clean and the AC worked great. The staff was helpful and friendly. I didn't go for the all-inclusive option, and thought this is very good value for the money for a no-frills stay!

I enjoyed Tucan hotel so much that if I am ever in that area again I will book my stay. I have never been to Mexico and I booked this through Expedia. The place was super, super clean. They seem to wash everything from top to bottom everyday. They are hard working and they do a wonderful job. The only thing that I would want to see change is the bed, it was a little stiff. Other than that the people, food and safety were awesome! Book this hotel if there is room you will not be disappointed.
