Due to the surrounding area and the number of steps around the hotel, it may not be suitable for those with mobility difficulties.
As soon as I arrived I was impressed with the size of the location just not the construction going around the family pool. The hotel lobby bar was awesome and very cool I enjoyed watching Real Madrid win 4-0. I also loved Alexa’s service at the front desk and Jorge’s service at the Adult only Pool.
If you stay at Barcelo Maya Palace, the rooms are huge and clean with lots of storage space and nice bathroom with big shower. Mini bar is refilled daily. You can access the four middle resorts and the mall as well if you stay at the palace which means you have a lot of options for a la carte restaurants. At the palace, you can chose an a la carte every night you're there. The Rodizio, Brasserie and Caribe restaurants are all wonderful if you choose to just eat at the palace restaurant although you can choose the other restaurants as well. If you like meat, the Rodizio has a huge ribeye.
The beach is very good but rocky in a few places so you may want water shoes. You will see fish in the water beside you. If you are at the palace beach and go from the lifeguard stand straight out into the ocean about 50 metres, you will likely have a sea turtle come and swim right by you at some point. I've been here twice (for 7 days or more) and usually go to the beach daily and saw turtles everytime in that area even just standing in the water without having to snorkel.
The resort is clean, attractive, and well-maintained; the staff are very friendly and helpful; and the food is excellent—with a wide selection, there is something for everyone. Most importantly, we felt safe there, even when taking late-evening walks. There are also free activities for children.
It’s a wonderful place to stay in family. Everything is there. Safe, clean, beautiful It’s the best!!!
From staff, to clean rooms and excellent restaurants, this hotel is the best! I surely will go back very soon!
