I was very worried about staying at this resort but in the end I decided to stay and was very pleased. I wasn't sure about the food since my husband is very picky with his food but all was well. The room that we were assigned was great. Much more than I expected. I especially liked the safe in the... more

This hotel was perfect for our weeklong getaway. If you're looking for relaxation with peace and quiet this is the place for you. The hotel has everything on site that you might want. The staff was very accomodating and quick to respond to our requests. The food was good but the variety stayed more or less the same throughout the... more

This place is great. We have traveled to a lot of places, but I just love Mexico for its festive atmosphere. Toni at the pool bar is wonderful. Nice guy and very friendly.

Let me preface this by saying my parents, fiance and I booked the hotel and flight through Continental Vacations. Normally Continental does a good job, however, the Banderas Bay third party that Continental worked through on this deal was HORRIBLE!!! Seriously, NEVER, book any type of activity through the Banderas Bay group that Continental works with in Puerto Vallarta...not even... more

My husband and I chose Puerto Vallarta for our honeymoon location because of the amount of activities but we were thoroughly surprised at the wonderful service and accomodations at Barcelo. It is an easy 30 minute taxi ride from the airport and downtown but there are plenty of taxis at the hotel waiting to take you where you want to... more
