Overall, this resort was lovely. The staff were friendly and helpful with good English. Everything was clean. The a la carte experiences were absolutely worth it as the buffet can get repetitive (but still tasty). The staff at the restaurants are incredible and knowledgeable about the menu and the food is good. Specifically Abraham and Isac at the Mexico Linda restaurant! The pools are huge, the beach is nice, and there’s very good snorkelling in the beach area. The resort is huge with lots to do, however some things require additional payment. Would absolutely come back!

Very disappointing experience. I’ve been to several resorts and this has been the worse. The rooms are super outdated and are in need for a serious renovation. The bathrooms have broken titles.
The service is the worst. If you ask the staff for something their first response is no. Getting reservations at the a la carte restaurants is nearly impossible. Although we were allowed only 2 for a 4 night stay, we managed to get reservations for 1 restaurant only. We didn’t get any service at the beach. The only way to get any service is if you tip the servers before asking for something. The bell boy didn’t show up when we asked for one.
All the amenities are spread out across all the 5 -6 resorts and it is a hike to get from one resort to another. It’s more of a 3 star resort.

The Barcelo complex is located near Playa Del Carmen. There are four resorts in the same complex an hour south of the Cancun airport. The Barcelo Maya Beach is an amazing Beach resort. Great service. A lot of hard working employees. The food is very good. They have excellent nightly entertainment. Barceló Maya Beach is also kid friendly. I definitely recommend vacationing here.

A great experience overall. The beach here is beautiful. Plenty of seating at pools. Staff was lovely. Gluten free girlies listen up! I had breakfast each morning at the Beach Buffet, and Selene was always our server. She got me made to order gluten free pancakes and waffles each morning. She was SO nice and fun to be around. We found all of the staff to be wonderful here and had a great time.

The room is OK but bathroom kinda gross, its really old and you can see mold on the ceiling. Staff is sometimes really friendly (buffet or grill) but really seem to not care at the front desk or even at the pool bars. One of the a la carte restaurant was full all week so we couldn’t try it and all the restaurants were full the first two days of our trip so we only had 3 restaurants instead of 4. Also all the restaurants want you to order really quickly, even the desert. Best restaurant is tokio, the food was really good. Buffet is big you can easily find something you like. The beach was beautiful but not enough chairs, there is place to have a lot more and people all get up early to reserve them. Resort is big and was almost full when we were there but it was really calm. It’s a little far from the Cancún airport (1h30). The gym is big and really clean!
