Barceló Maya Colonial

This hotel is a big and fantastic great resort. It is managed very well. They even have an own app to download to find your way through the resort and get an idea about the service they offer. A A double-decker bus is available to transport the guest within the resort-jungle. All food you get is well prepared and a pleasure to the eye. The staff takes care about you. >12 special restaurants: good, but also here time counts and they feed you up fast to get the next guests in.

Disadvantage of the resort: everything which is not part of the package is twice as expensive as outside. That refers to cloths, wine and food The advantages tours offered are too expensive - book with external agencies- TripAdvisor is a good platform here. Major negative point: I hate to see people walking around with animals selling photos. We all no the sad stories behind the gate of the grownup animals then. And I do not understand why they have to keep Dolphins in a basin to show them to the stupid people watching this terrible show while 100 m besides the basin is the Caribbean Sea. And finally: at this price level it is a shame to charge USD 45 extra per week to get free WLAN - and even this is limited to two devices for a family.
