Disclaimer: Generally I am not one to complain about hotels because mistakes happen to everyone. That being said this is by far the worst hotel I have ever stayed at and would recommend anyone considering staying here to look elsewhere before what happened to me, happens to you.

My husband and I just returned from Tamarindo - stayed at the Barcelo. We really enjoyed it and we'd stay there again. We stayed in 4508 which was a newer section and you take elevator to 4th floor and walk up a flight. Gorgeous view! At night, green parrots land in the the trees, two, three, four at a time,... more

This is a great hotel if you plan to go there, sit on a beach chair and relax. The hotel has a nice huge pool with a jacuzzi. There's plenty of beach chairs and room to move around and it's very close to the bar. I agree with most people the drinks are week, but after my first day here... more

If you are reading this, you want to know the real deal. Here it is. Costa Rica, awesome!! Rent scooters, or something and get out and see the other beaches!! People were all very nice around and the ocean/beaches (playas) were beautiful! Now to the "all inclusive" resort.. The buffet was pretty good. I'm country, but I know good food.... more

The service was excellent, the grounds very pretty, the food very good, the pool area beautiful & the cost inexpensive. There were four of us & we all had a great & relaxing time. Most of the guests were Ticos and Americans. The only critique is that the jacuzzi was not heated. more

My friend and I were travelling around Costa Rica for 2 weeks and wanted to try out a few different resorts. On a friend recommendation that had stayed at the Barcelo in April, we decided that would be our first resort of the trip, and it didn't disappoint! The food was great There were different theme nights (our favorite was... more
