Each review score is between 1-10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We use a weighted review system which means that the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate ‘subscores’ in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money and free Wi-Fi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an Accommodation that you booked through our Platform if you stayed there or if you arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise in detecting fake reviews submitted to our Platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include 'hate speech', discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, and the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

United StatesThe food was not that great at times. Some food ws under the heating lamp or selection at the Ala carte menu just was not up to the level of Vegas or Honolulu (or even European) resorts/hotels. Made me want to go into “town” to go to a restaurant. And coffee was light/not much flavor, even from the espresso machine. Would have liked to see a coffee bar or cafe option during the day.
It was nicer than we thought, after hearing about some of the properties at Barcelo being dated. We ended up at the Caribe, and it was fine.

United StatesThe beds showed signs of aging. It's about time to change them. There were 3 of us and one had to sleep on the sofa bed. We had a better mattress replaced after we talked to the front desk agents.
The swimming pools were amazing! So much space and we could use the swimming pools of the neighbor properties. The food was satisfying and we had a good variety. I only wish we had a grain/nuts option to add more nutritional value in my meals. The best beach for me is in front of the Tropical property, even though some rocks were there, there was a clearing where the most pristine and beautiful turquoise water was appealing to me. We took some photos and it shows the real Mexican Caribbean colors. The night shows were fun to watch just one added activity that made our stay memorable. The dancers were just amazing! The singers were so fantástic, they truly gave it all and deserved every ovation night after night. The themed restaurant were ok to be honest, the staff were super welcoming, with the exception of the Italian restaurant, the waiter always walked away whenever I had a question, he was just rude. Maybe he should have a talk, and I'm talking about the Italian restaurant next to the Japanese restaurant which we decided not to go and just enjoy the dinner buffet instead. No regrets there since they had 3-4 of fishes and grilled meats. The pork chops were amazing! So .. I guess it was way better than the Japanese option. We loved the iguanas around the property and all the green areas. If you wake up early enough you can hear them singing. There's a bus that runs every 15 minutes from property to property, it was a fun ride since it reminds me of the 2 floor buses from London. I took my mother for her 81 birthday and she was super happy to be there. Everyone was so welcoming and polite, we also talked to the employees since we also speak Spanish and they were happy to explain just about anything we asked. Truly grateful for the hospitality.

CanadaThe rooms had high humidity, which made the bedding wet and unpleasant to sleep on. The floor also accumulated wetness and dew as a result of the humidity level.
The breakfast was good and variety of to choose from. The resort has a great amount of attractions that family can enjoy without leaving the resort. Generally, it was a good experience for me and my family.

CanadaThere honestly wasn't much I can complain about besides the fact that our reservation said we got a balcony and two beds but our family suite did not have a balcony nor did it have two beds. We had 1 big bed and them 3 couches that folded into beds in the other room. Kids still slept fine in them though.
The resort was absolutely stunning, lots for the kids to do. Lots of options for kid friendly meals. Everyone was super nice.

United StatesI hated the humidity in the rooms, I spent the most uncomfortable nights trying to sleep on a wet bed plus the clothes took a weird humid smell.
I loved the place!! A lot things to do,(the gym is big, a lot of pools, a mall, dolphins, a big game place) the night shows at the theaters were a high level shows, the beach is gorgeous. We had got the premium level which I personally consider is not worth to pay extra because I didn’t find any difference unless you are gonna drink a lot.

United Stateswalls are thin and you can hear people in the rooms next door, We were in a Suite and could hear everything below us and next door.
Breakfast buffet was always a hit it was standard American food with other international options, made to order omelets, fresh squeezed juice and the timing was just right open early enough to grab and go and then start our day at the beach. If you want to dinner at any of the restaurants be sure to set your reservations when you first check in because they fill up pretty quick especially if you have a large group. We had dinner at the Italian and Seafood restudy during our stay and food was good. I felt like 5 days wasn't enough time to explore the whole compound it was so big with so much to do, very family friendly there is a bus that picks ups and drops off at each Barcelo Hotel and it was a double decker which ran about every 10-15 mins until 1 or 2AM daily. lots of activities for teens, there is a teen club, a 24hr sports bar with food (buffet), bowling, a haunted house, go karts, a "mall", water park, can swim with dolphins, some activities aren't included but the fee's weren't bad we did go carts. I was pleasantly pleased with everything during our 5 day 4 night stay.
