I’ve never had an experience this bad at any resort, let alone one that costs this much. Where do I even start? The food was completely inedible. Multiple meals came out with hair in them, the buffet had bugs crawling on the tables, and somehow the food was still undercooked. Two people in my room got so sick they couldn’t leave the bathroom. We literally went three full days without being able to eat a proper meal because everything felt unsafe. Trying to get a reservation at any restaurant? Impossible. Everything was booked out the entire stay. We were denied at the other resorts too, so we were basically trapped with terrible food options we couldn’t even eat. Our room? No A/C. Just a hot, humid oven we were stuck sleeping in while already sick. We called the front desk multiple times and absolutely nothing was done. Zero urgency, zero solutions. And to top it off, we paid thousands to attend a show here and could barely even make it. Between the miles of walking required and being violently sick from the food, we missed most of what we paid for. This place was unsafe, unsanitary, and totally unprepared. For the price we paid, this was a complete joke. I wouldn’t recommend this resort to anyone — not even as a prank. Spend your money somewhere that actually cares about basic cleanliness, functional rooms, and, you know… food you can eat without getting sick.

I have to give a huge thank-you to Gabriela Dominguez and Miguel Itza at Palapa Mariachi in the Barcelo Colonial. Their service was truly outstanding! 🌴✨ They were friendly, attentive, and made us feel incredibly welcome. Every detail was taken care of with a smile, and they went above and beyond to make our dining experience special. You can really feel the pride they take in their work — it makes all the difference. Gracias Gabriela and Miguel — you made our visit unforgettable. 💛 We can’t wait to come back!

Beautiful Resort, amazing staff and great food A little late writing this review lets just say life got a bit busy once we got back. We visited this resort for the first time on the week of Nov. 1-8 2025. All we can say is this is fantastic resort we have no complaints. We booked the upgrade to premier and it was worth it. Right from the check in to everything else that goes with it. We had our separate check in area and we did not have to book any a la carts as it was already done for us, and if there was any we wanted to change we could do that after.Check in was quick and our room was ready for us when we got there. The room is fantastic and large and the view over the pool and the ocean was beautiful. Do bring water shoes as the ocean has rocky areas in it but where the rocks were we saw lots of different fish. The grounds are beautiful and well maintained do be prepared to walk as it is a large resort. As for the food there is no complaints, the buffet was good and had great variety each day and the a la carts were fantastic especially the Japanese one. As for staff and service they were all fantastic. We had an issue with the A/C on the second day, we called down to our concierge desk and within half hour maintenance arrived and had the issue resolved. One employee in particular really stood out and was fun to deal with his name is Jesus Puc, he made our stay a lot more fun. He was at the pool/beach bar during the day and than at the piano bar in the evening. The only bad experience was at the Strikers bar lets just say the food there was not that good as well as the service. We will definitely put this resort on our high list and will visit it again. We have been to a number of different resorts over the years and this is one in our top 3. We highly recommend you give it a try you won't regret it

We booked this for a family vacation. It was our second time at the Barcelo Maya. We loved it there the first time but I’ll never go back. It is a beautiful resort but the customer service is absolutely horrible. When we arrived, they had our room wrong and literally said that they did not care if we were upset. We had to fight to get the room we booked and that just made them more unpleasant to deal with. We paid for the premium account and the check in process and check out process was absolutely horrible. The only excellent service was at the Captain Morgan Bar and Grill and pool bar, at the Caribe next door to the Colonial, and the entertainment crew there was so fun. It is the last time I will go to Barcelo Maya and have already told some friends of ours, who booked to go there in February, to cancel their reservations and go somewhere else. Also, I have to mention that the food buffet was not good. If going to Cancun, stay somewhere else. Very sad because when we went years ago, we loved it there.
Melissa Magee
I cannot say one negative thing about this resort. The staff are amazing and super friendly, the food was great and their beaches and pools were beautiful. We have stayed at several resorts in this area before and this resort was perfect. I recommend 10/10. There's something for everyone here - party pools for those who like to party and quiet areas for the others.
