A Truly Fabulous Week at Barcelo in Teguise Beach.
We recently returned from a fabulous week-long holiday at this hotel, and our experience truly exceeded expectations. It was a stay defined by exceptional service, fantastic dining, and wonderful amenities.
The entire team deserves recognition; the staff were universally attentive and accommodating, making us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. As half-board guests, we were constantly impressed by the dining. The food choice was amazing and everything was great tasting. The accompanying drink selection was more than adequate, featuring some excellent wines, all of which were very reasonably priced.
The pools and amenities were great, offering plenty of space to relax and enjoy the sunshine. Although we did notice some people reserving sunbeds quite early, we personally didn’t encounter any issues securing a comfortable spot by the pool throughout the week.
Our room was perfectly adequate and spacious, providing a comfortable sanctuary. We must admit to having a slight chuckle over the slightly quirky design choice of having a hot tub situated right next to the bed, but it certainly added a unique element to the space!
Overall, we had a fantastic stay and would certainly love to frequent a Barceló hotel again based on this experience. Highly recommended!

Overall, we had a fantastic stay at the resort, largely thanks to the wonderfully friendly staff and some great amenities. The quality of the service was top-notch.
The absolute highlight of our room was the bed – it was incredibly comfortable and a welcome retreat after a long day of exploring. The food service for the all-inclusive breakfast and dinner was also a high point, with a great variety of options available.
However, there are a few things future guests might want to consider:
Hot Tub Rooms: We booked a room with a private hot tub but found it wasn't quite for us. At 6'2" (188cm), I could barely fit, and it was not large enough for my partner and me to use together comfortably.
Ground Floor Privacy: Our ground floor room had two privacy screens on the patio, but a noticeable gap between them left the space feeling a bit exposed to the main path.
Dining: While the food quality was excellent, the menu catered heavily to a British palate. We would have loved to see more authentic Spanish dishes offered. Also, be aware that the buffet is first-come, first-served, so we'd recommend arriving early. A small note: drinks are included with breakfast, but are an extra charge at dinner.
Despite these minor points, we had a great experience. We would happily book again, though we would likely choose a standard room and perhaps explore local restaurants for dinner. Thank you for a lovely stay!

Overall another wonderful stay. Staff are amazing, friendly and helpful. Especially considering this time it was clear they where short staffed. Sadly this time it seems the sunbed warriors where in residence, so finding spare sunbeds in the afternoon following excursions was tricky. Balcony with whirlpool was lovely with sea view, but I found the smoke from both neighbours, as its windy, stunk out our room forcing us to close Balcony door while the smoked. I don't normally take part in poolside activities, Antonia was fantastic, and I took part if we where poolside t the time. Aqua aerobic, aqua boxing, pool volleyball, mojo sauce making demonstration, and much more. One or two glitches with room, shower did not have pressure first night on late arrival, informed reception first thing in the morning, plumber was straight out before we evwn went to breakfast and fixed it. Day three, change of linen, noticed hole in pillow case+ bath towel and hand towel. Informed reception (not complaining) as know its not their usual standard, next day everything in room was extra perfect for rest of stay. Buffet dinner for me lacked diversity and had become a bit repetitive, so slightly disappointed, but still plenty to choose from. Would definitely book again, but do need to explore other countries. We now look where there are other Barcelo hotels, and book there.

Incredible hotel. Been several times and always find it amazing. Very helpful staff and the rooms are large and clean. Had one with a hotub in the room which was fantastic
Restaurant offers a wide range of food every evening and was always something different to choose from the buffet. Excellent service from those running it.
Easy to get too from airport and good location if going out for a few drinks without having to walk far

This was my 3rd time visiting this hotel, and as always it was exceptional. The food is outstanding, nothing is too much of an ask with the staff going out of their way to help my mam and I with anything we needed.
I couldn’t fault it at all, it is my favourite hotel I have ever been to and I am already looking forward to visiting next year.
I would especially like to mention Yaslem, Christina and Jean who especially looked after us throughout our time at the Barceló. They made our stay so much more enjoyable.
