ROOM: The room itself was clean and apart from the blocked toliet was generally nice, We never got told we wouldnt have a balcony and only when we arrived at the hotel were we told his, Not very good at all! The maid was exellent, our room was kept tidy and the fridge was stocked up everyday. POOL: Nice sized... more

First off... overall our trip was good, but there were some annoyances through out the whole trip, just not with the hotel. They expect you to tip for everything. It’s ridiculous. Then, they get mad if you don’t or don’t give them enough. Or if you don’t want their help at all. This is not with the staff at the... more

We stayed at the Barcelo Costa Cancun for one night before requesting a transfer to another property. The property is well maintained, the rooms are comfortable, and the food perhaps a bit better than mediocre. But if you are visiting Cancun for beach/sun, do not stay at the Barcelo Costa Cancun. Aside from the seaweed which washes up daily, swimming... more

Pro's: wait staff was always excellent and helpful. Con's: We traveled in a group of four and requested rooms close together. When we arrived we were told they were full so two of us ended up on the fourth floor room overlooking a roof and two of us ended up on the first floor looking with the front door looking... more

My wife and I just returned from our honeymoon at the Barceló Costa Cancun. We have traveled before, but this was our first trip to Mexico. Here are some things that I hope anyone considering this hotel will find helpful: The building/rooms: Our room was always very clean and nice. The mini-fridge was restocked every day, which was great because... more

My husband and I took my sister to cancun for the first time and stayed at the Barcelo. It was the worst hotel to stay at. We paid for a oceanview and didn't get it. The first room we got was extremely small. They did change our rooms which was on the first floor facing the gazebo. When we checked... more

Hi guys! It's easy to fall in love with this resort. I stayed here in Aug/Sept 2006 when it was still under the Real Resort banner and had an excellent time. This resort is great if you're looking for a lively atmosphere, nice beach/pool area, good rooms and food. I stayed here with a friend of mine and for us... more

The Hotel/Room: The Barcelo Costa was a very neat place. The architecture of the hotel makes you feel like a high roller. Since my wife and I went for our honeymoon, we had a room with a king bed. The bathroom was very nice and had a huge shower with a bench. We were very impressed with the room's cleanliness.... more
