Overall Ratings & Reviews Barceló Huatulco - All Inclusive

Staff very friendly and nice. We like the Variety of food

The resort only had 1 pool for adults also the restaurant options not good, only gives you 1 specialty restaurants and f you want to go to another restaurant you have to see if they have RSVP from 3-5pm. No events in the open at nighttime.

Each and every staff member that we came in contact with was fantastic and we will be back. I hope management understands the hard work these great people do and the assets they are to the company and compensate them appropriately. My wife and I had a great holiday.

Cleanliness & Service The resort is spotless, and the staff go above and beyond—friendly, attentive, and always happy to help. We genuinely enjoyed our stay. Buffet Experience The on site grill staff primarily cater to Spanish speaking guests, so if you don’t speak any Spanish, have a translation app on hand. We noticed they often took orders from Spanish speakers first and you sometimes have to politely assert yourself to be served. Compared to other Barceló properties we’ve visited, this resort’s breakfast spread felt repetitive. Fresh fruit options were limited and the same each morning, and there were no freshly squeezed juices. They offer oat and almond milk, but no soy milk, which may disappoint if you’re plant milk dependent. Cuisine Variety If you love authentic Mexican fare—as we do—you’ll appreciate the menu. However, international or non Mexican options are few, and the selection doesn’t change much from day to day. Dining Experience (A la Carte Grill) The a la carte Mexican grill is fantastic—authentic flavor, generous portions, and beautifully presented. We noticed the Japanese a la carte offered little beyond a token selection—if you love Japanese cuisine, you might want to skip it. Overall: A very clean, service oriented resort that shines for lovers of Mexican cuisine but may feel narrow in beverage and fresh fruit choices—and could improve its English language service flow.

I enjoyed the location, the services, and the amenities.

Great hotel and area for swimming in Huatulco

Excellent staff. Beautiful facilities.

I have got everything I wanted on the budget. Thanks to hard working staff!

Me gusto todo del hotel!

Perfect

This property is wonderful. The staff were amazing and we never had to wait gor service. The beach and ocean were great. The buffet and restaurants were also good. The two towns were only a 100 peso ride with Santa Cruz having amazing ocean front restaurants. Huatulco is was by far our favorite location,

The food was not that great for price of premium stay

Food selection was not enough for what we paid

Was really nice and relaxing!

Great vacation!

Friendly staff, close to shops, nice beach, food overall rate a 7.5

Great resort, clean and decent food for a vegetarian. Low English, great customer service- Definitely found premium worth it.

The property had some deferred maintenance, over all it was fine. Most of the workers were attentive but some ignored us. The spa had great prices, Consepcion did a great job .

Barcelo Huatulco was great! Beautiful beach, sunny and hot every day. The staff were always friendly, smiling, and happy to help. Lots of great activities from the entertainment staff! Food was ok - lots of options at the buffets, some things were great and others bland (especially desserts). Appreciated the salad bar, fresh cut fruit, fresh omelettes, and guacamole every day. The Italian restaurant was great - fantastic live piano, great service, and good food. Gym, pickleball, and basketball courts were great. Things I would improve: reduce the heavy banging music at the pool area, add a no-music deeper pool (perhaps in the grass area near the children’s play centre?), reduce the amount of boat ride offers from the guys in the beach (maybe instead of soliciting they could have a sign with posted prices - sometimes we were asked over 5 times per day - always friendly, but still), add signs at the hot bars for what you can order there (in both Spanish & English), improve the flavours at the buffets (go for quality not quantity!). Overall we had a great time and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it to others!

Great location right by Tangolunda Bay, on the beachfront. Lots to see and do, included water activities (non-motorized) Nice medium sized resort with great access for everyone. Lots of ramps or elevators to all levels. Premium rooms were amazing with great ocean and pool views. The pools are all in the same area next to each other. One is a family pool with a kids waterpark section and slides etc. The other is a large adults pool and has a swim-up bar area. All pools were a great temperature and sparkling clean at all times. We had no complaints at all and would absolutely return here again. The food in the buffets was great but sometimes a little on the cool side for me, but always tasty. I like my food really hot but I realize that it's difficult to keep buffet food hot - cruise ships can do it though, so it disappoints me when it is on the cooler side in a hotel. The breakfast staff could be a bit more efficient in their attention to waiting customers. They chatted to each other whilst serving each customer individually, instead of asking the next customers in line, and multitasking their orders on the very large hotplate, which could have easily coped with several orders at one time. The 3 star hotel we go to in Puerto Vallarta does a better job at breakfast. Thoroughly recommend this hotel over all.
