Overview

The Barceló Maya Palace is a stunning resort situated in Riviera Maya, Mexico. With an incredible backdrop of white sandy beaches and crystal clear water, the hotel offers visitors unrivaled views of the gorgeous Caribbean.

This five-star luxury hotel has six different room variations for vacationers to choose from. The base rooms are the Junior Suite, which offers visitors breathtaking views of the on-site tropical gardens. The Junior Suites host up to five guests and come with amenities like a rain shower, minibar, and coffee maker. The top, premier rooms are the Premium Level Seafront Presidential Suites. These suites measure almost 2,000 square feet and have the best views in the resort thanks to their third-floor location. These rooms come with additional amenities like a hydromassage tub, a pillow menu, and a complimentary bottle of tequila for guests staying over four days,

Those staying at The Barceló will feel like they never have to leave. The resort has six different restaurants for diners to choose from. Visitors can enjoy the food here through vouchers they receive upon check-in base based on how long they will be staying. Each voucher is worth a meal at one of the restaurants. Many of the items available are shared across all six restaurants, so it is more a matter of location. Some of the more popular offerings here are the tiger prawns over jasmine rice, seafood stew, escargot, and even sushi platters.

Because of its location, The Barceló is extremely popular for both honeymoons and weddings. Those looking to say their vows on the sandy beaches of the Caribbean can work with the resort to handle everything from decorating to catering. If newlyweds just want to spend their honeymoon here, there are many options for that as well.
