Thanks so much for watching 😁

Awww thank you so much!!

Thanks for watching!! The adults only section is new!!! Def try it!!!

Thanks for watching. You can always upgrade when you get there too. If you wanted the hydrotherapy I would say then that would be a reason but that was closed when I was there.

De Nada!! Thanks for watching!

Thanks for watching!! Wow it definitely sounds like a different experience! I am glad yours was better! Enjoy your visit back! Would love hear any updates that we can give everyone.

I thought room service was free with premium level

I thought it was but maybe because they ordered after hours?

I love it!!!! Such great points. Thank you!!!

Thanks for watching! Yes the other Barcelo resorts were very kid friendly. One had a dolphin pool on site. I’m going back in January with my family. No I have never been to Hyatt Ziva

Hi thanks for watching! We loved the food. Everything we had was great. The entertainment was a little limited bc of COVID but they always had something until 11PM in the open air lobby. Your sister will love it there! I would love to hear how your stay was and how the snorkeling was since we didnt do that. Give us some updates when you return :)

Yes too far!!

Thank you so much for watching! So this resort actually sells out a lot so there may not be rooms there when you get there. But yes! Sometimes they will upgrade you for free. Happened to us a few times but I think it was because of the channel. Def call the front desk and ask for concierge and tell them your celebrating something like an anniversary or birthday and sometimes they decorate the room. Also you could schedule a romantic dinner near the beach. It’s extra but she’s worth it right? Lol. Just being there together will be special. Can’t wait to go back here now that everything is open!! Can’t wait to hear what you’d think. Call our friend Nacho if you need a ride from the airport!!

Thank you! They actually did not have either. They did have beach service though. There were a ton of palm trees that added shade if you needed it. But great question.

Actually I’m not sure! But I’m pretty sure Premium got priority. I think if you stay at Barcelo Maya Riviera it gives you automatic access to the other resorts even if you are not premium level. But don’t quote me

Hi! Thanks for watching. Honestly I don’t remember this being an issue BUT I’m also the one who hates AC and usually turns it off lol

Yes pack water shoes. Parts of it is Rocky

Just make sure you are booking Barceló Maya Riviera. They actually have a separate site

Thanks for watching!!! And I can’t believe I forgot that part. The hydrotherapy was closed when we were there! That’s another reason I decided to downgrade bc I wanted to use it!! Thank you so much for the reminder!!!

I would not go premium again until everything is up and running

Yes I agree!!

I’m pretty sure WiFi is included with regular package

I think you get a free excursion and massage

I think a jr suite

So no need to do premium for first time visitors?? Never been to an all inclusive either. 😩

Thanks for watching!!! I absolutely loved it. It over looked the pool and the ocean!! Plus you can always upgrade when you get there! But the video shows you both of the views!

@@3Days3Noches I can’t tell u how nervous I am over this whole thing but i am going with you on this and praying we get a wonderful view w/o doing premium. I don’t like the location. I like being in the middle of the resort. Thanks again for your videos. So so so helpful!!!

This will be your first all inclusive??? Very exciting!! Don’t be nervous! You are going to love it! If you need transportation from the airport check out our video on that! Nacho is great!!

I have not!!! But have wanted to take my teenagers there!! If you like to drink premium alcohol and want to spend anytime at the adults only section then yes it’s probably worth it. Also I think you get access to all of the other properties

Hope you found it helpful!!!

@@3Days3Noches Thank you very much for your video ... and it helps me make the decision about which room to select at the Barceló Maya Riviera ... I didn't know the differences in the Premium level; with my wife we are planning the trip for next year, (end of March 2022). Could you recommend another complex? all the rooms facing the pools have a Jacuzzi on the balcony? Again thank you very much!

Thanks for watching! So here is what you get when you decide to upgrade to Premium at The Barcelo Riviera Maya. 1. Location of Room - the room is in a separate building - so more privacy but further walk from the lobby 2. Separate check in area with lounge 3. Free 24 hour room service 4. Access to Premium Lounge when it’s open. Honestly those are the only differences at this property. At the other Barcelo properties it makes sense to upgrade because you get Premium Liquors and access to all of the other properties. You already get that at the Barcelo Riviera Maya on a basic level. I’ve been to Haven, Iberostar, Blue Bay and The Grand Moon Palace and still Barcelo was my favorite. At those other properties the beaches were not good and I’m a beach person! The Moon Palace has amazing food and pools but not good beach! I know there’s so many to choose from! Keep following us and subscribe! We try a new resort every 3 months!

@@3Days3Noches Hello! I appreciate the detail of your experience .. Excellent! We are also looking for good beaches! our experience at the Barceló chain was in Punta Cana and we sincerely fell in love with the place; Both the Covid and the economic situation have us very alert and it is difficult to plan a year in advance. Query: do you recommend booking through the Barceló website? Thank you very much and we will keep in touch

@@albertotroche1842 I know very difficult times! We usually book through United Vacations because we live in New Jersey and it’s the best airline to choose from. Hotels.com just for the room can have great prices too. We went for 3 nights and it was around $850 per person with flight hotel food drinks everything. But it was during January and COVID! I would sign up for their email list and have them send you promotions. They are always doing deals. And then get an app to stalk the flight prices of when the go down etc. it all depends where you are coming from! That’s what I love about Mexico. You can go away for a week for just over $1000 per person!!!

This was Barcelo Maya Riviera the adults only. You can’t have kids here.

They had Don Julio when I was there! I hear ya - They also used a brand called Emisario which they only sell in Mexico I think and we bought some and brought it back. Not as good as DJ

Hi! It’s usually about $100-$125 per day for two. But it can change etc. it can be less depending on the time of year!

@@3Days3Noches I’m guessing that cost is for adults only and kids get to tag along? We’re going with my two, 11 and 9 year old, daughters.

Yes I think so! Because the upgrade is for premium liquors and adult items.

C est en dollars amercicain ou en pesos?

American dollars!

Thank you for watching! It gets pretty pricey. Like a massage is around $200 usd and romantic dinner the same etc. if you contact them they will give you an actual price list 😄

@@3Days3Noches wow ok that’s enough to have an idea and work harder so we can afford that 😂😂 thanks a lot

Honestly the place is amazing even without it 😍

Hi thanks for watching. It means you don’t pay extra at restaurants etc

Actually none at all! But lots that was promised to us wasn’t available. Like the spa and better liquor. So it was easy. You could say that it’s too far of a walk from the lobby and that you want a regular room

Thanks for watching! We already had the junior suite jUst over in the premium level. And yes it had an amazing balcony. Both rooms did!

Did the resort provide airport transportation or did you have to pay?

@@loyaltyfamilyfirst we always use Nacho Tours for all of our transportation! The resort might provide transportation but it’s prob an extra charge :)

@@blancheandcompany thanks again!!! Is there anything else I need to know? Like are the excursions far away from the resort?

Sorry responded with the wrong channel lol. Here’s my travel KZfaq to subscribe to! kzfaq.info/love/JM3y31vZnRUudPw5kUAkIQ. Depending on what excursion you take some are 30 minutes but some can be more!

Yes it is!

Cancun. It’s about an hour and 20 minutes from the airport

Okay, thank you so much and great video!

Thank you so much for watching it!!!

I guess your right!! Good point. I guess if your paying for a Premium Level however you do expect the extra cost to come with some extra stuff. But I see where you’re coming from and I don’t want to be like that so thanks for pointing it out!!
