I have just returned from our family tip to Barcelo punta cana. I have to b honest i have mixed emotions about this resort. Our first room was a disaster on 5th floor balcony railing not attached, doors to balcony wouldn't lock, toilet not working racks in bathroom falling off wall. It was basically severely run down. Manager moved us... More

My husband and I had a great time at Barcelo! The food was delicious esp. the desserts and there was alot of variety. The drinks were good esp. the Mojitos and not watered down. The grounds were well maintained and inviting. The beach was beautiful. The nightly entertainment was fun esp. the Michael Jackson show. Although we adjusted easily, the... More

I am really baffled by the negative reviews of this resort. We were there from March 27th to April 3rd with my Son, his wife and two children (ages 2 and 4) and my Daughter, her husband and 6 month old baby. We have previously stayed at the Riu complex and the Grand Palladium complex in Punta Cana and found... More

March 24th to April 1st, 2012 had a great time. This resort is a 4 star for the Punta Cana Area, it should update the older rooms.

I waited a little while to let the experience of this vacation soak in for a while before writing a review. Personally it was very difficult to choose a hotel in Punta Cana because no matter what hotel you read a review of they are very 50/50 on good versus bad experiences. I now understand why which I will detail.... More
