8.2/10 Very Good! (2,923 reviews)
This is our second time staying at a Barcelo resort. The first time we stayed at Barcelo in DR and were impressed so we decided to book Barcelo in PV. Let me tell you, both resorts were completely different and the Barcelo in PV did not meet our expectations, we thought we were getting the same amenities as in the DR keep in mind it was about the same price.
To begin with, the staff was AMAZING, that resort would not be what it is without its staff and truly if it wasn’t for them I would never return to this Barcelo.
The room was great, definitely bigger with a nice view. The cleaning service however wasn’t that great, they would simply just make the beds, they wouldn’t wipe down counters or mirrors so I doubt they did anything other than that.
The food was a huge disappointment, unlike the other resort where you could make a dinner reservation for each day stayed, here it would depend on days stayed max was 3. This wouldn’t have been a problem if they had anything other than 1 buffet and a snack bar with LIMITED hours. You’re literally paying for one buffet and a snack bar that serves terrible food. By day 3 we were tired we had to seek food outside. This defeats the all inclusive purpose. I think this out of all was the biggest disappointment. Also, the beach at this resort isn’t that nice, you have to leave the resort to find a better beach. This hotel is also far from the village. I honestly say go somewhere else if you want to spend less.
