    “Southwest Airlines' Choice”

    Our recent vacation in Cabo had a rough ending. Our Sunday 12:30 flight was cancelled by Southwest Airlines. They rescheduled us for mid-afternoon the following day. After 7 hours of waiting at the airport and standing in multiple lines, Southwest finally agreed to send a bunch of us weary and frustrated passengers to this hotel. Entering the property, we could see that everything looked 5-stars. Immaculate grounds and a lovely beach. If that all this grade was for, they'd get a 5 star rating. The first disappointment was that we had to fight to get free WiFi. What hotel these days still CHARGES their guests for internet access? As angry guests approached the office, they agreed to give us a free pass for a day. Back to the room everyone went. Surprise, it didn't work. We all had to return to the office to get new information. After all that, to the bar to chill. Excellent margaritas at the bar across from the office! It was about 6:45 PM and few people were around so we thought we'd try the Italian restaurant. Literally NO ONE was in the restaurant so we thought it would be an easy walk-in. Nooooope. Reservations are required. OK, when is the earlies I can make a reservation? "9:30". 9:30? After a lengthy discussion, she magically found a 7:30 opening. Fine. Came back at 7:28. "Ohhhh, I'm sorry sir, we require shirts with collars." Hmmmm, only 1 or 2 other parties in the restaurant, I have a nice un-collared shirt. Can't we just get an exception? Nope. I ran back to the room, put on a collared shirt and returned. I once again approached the receptionist. "Ohhhhh, I'm so sorry sir, you must have long pants". Oh my God! I had dress shorts on with nice shoes. At this point, I was looking for a camera because I was sure I must have been starring on some candid-camera show. As I stood there in disbelief, she said she has a solution. Great, I will be allowed in! Then she pulls out a giant pair of pants from under her counter and says if I wear these (size 58) pants, my size 32 waist would be allowed in. I stood there in complete disbelief. We left and went to the buffet. Food was marginal. The bed room was sub-par. Shower had only luke warm water.....not hot at all. The shower curtain was insufficient to give you privacy. The curtain in the main room did not cover the entire sun-soaked window. The grounds are beautiful, but beware of everything else!

    “WORST EXPERIENCE EVER!!!!!!”

    Go somewhere else DON'T STAY HERE!! Cockroaches in our room everywhere when we requested another room they wouldn't accommodate us they stated they had no rooms available but yet resort was empty due to hurricane warning. Bartenders claimed to be out tequila all the time. Buffet seemed to be out of mostly everything by 8pm every night. They don't enforce the dress code to everyone they pick and choose. Hotel bathrooms out in pool area and in hotel lobbies are disgusting. Rudest people at the check in reception desk especially the manager they gave our rooms to other people. We ended up getting our room at 830pm no apology at all they just didn't care and then we get the room infested with cockroaches we literally slept in our balcony every night and kept our clothing in suitcases out there since the room was full of cockroaches everywhere. Most of the staff at Barcelos just simply don't care & treat their guest with no respect & simply don't put any effort to make their guests feel welcome. Seems one must be white to get treated with respect at this resort. Puddles of water everywhere due to the storm & the staff didn't nothing to clean or put caution signs to alert guest of puddles. Pools were extremely dirty ,full of bugs and looked green at times. Never Never returning to this resort in Cabo they need to improve their customer service & making guest feel comfortable and get rid of the cockroaches & dress code because they don't seem to be following it as they say if your white you probably would even be allowed to eat dinner in a thong and it be ok. Run down hotel & didn't feel safe .

    “Our favourite all-inclusive hotel”

    We were impressed by the kindness of the staff overall. Usually, we do not chose all-inclusive hotels for our vacations, but Barcelo is outstanding. We enjoyed the freshness, the large choice and variety of the food offer. Hence, we would recommend an extra effort to improve the cleanliness of the rooms.
