Chacalal Hotels

"Large resort with lovely covered walkways throughout the resort. Very serene and family friendly. Several pools to enjoy and great snorkelling right off of the beach! Remember to bring beach shoes as the beach has some rocky areas. There is a doubled decker bus that runs every 15 minutes or so, that stops at the lobbies of each of the 6 sister resorts. You can also walk from one end of the sister resorts to the other end in about 20 minutes. Lots of choice at the food buffets and beach side snack bars. You must be dried off and wearing a shirt or other cover up clothing to eat at the beach side snack bars. You cannot take food back to the beach. The a la carte restaurants were all very good as well, lots of choice on the menus. Book your a la carte reservations at guest services immediately upon arrival. There is a mall in the middle of the resort with a Mexican Plaza next door for all souvenir shopping needs. Strikers is a sports bar (all ages welcomed) that is opened 24 hours a day with food and beverages available, located in the mall just off of the Caribe lobby. The only thing missing at this resort, in my opinion, is a coffee bar but there are different types of coffees available at the buffets and beach side snack bars. If you are looking for a relaxing place to unwind, this is the perfect resort!"

"This is my favorite place to go, highly recomend to anyone!"

"We never made it to Mexico because of my husband severe PTSD episode. We contact the hotel to ask if we could change the dates we never heard something back from them. Very disappointed we never would book that hotel again."

"We had a wonderful trip to Barcelo Maya Caribe. We loved how big and beautiful our resort was and loved being able to walk to and explore the sister resorts- each one had beautiful details and places to see and it was fun to discover new things every day. During our stay we had two dinners that we had to reserve at the ale crate restaurants, other than that we could eat at any of the buffets. The buffets were great - food was always fresh and cooked to perfection. Fruit and fruit juices were incredible. There were “snack bars” buffet style restaurants by the beach and pools which we went to for lunch and those were great too! We did get turned away from Tokyo (one of the ale cadre restaurants) because my husband was wearing flip flops (even though most people wore flip flops or sandals walking out of there ) so next time we will bring sneakers. The staff worked incredibly hard to keep the place clean inside and outside. It was the perfect vacation without our kids but we are strongly considering planning a family trip in the future as it is a great place for kids as well!"

"The rooms were cleaned daily and done well. Staff were helpful with any questions. Pools were great."

"Great place! "

"Spa experience was really nice. The vip pool was nice and quiet. Food was ok, a little more variety would be nice at the buffet. The resteraunts were very good. The staff was incredible."

"Overall great experience, plenty of restaurant options, bar options and activities! We greatly enjoyed our Honeymoon!"

"The only concern for us was the seaweed on the beach but not much they can do about that. We have an amazing trip. People were fantastic!"
