Just got back from spending 7 days at Bercelo Beach. Beautiful resort! Rooms so clean; bed was so spacious and comfortable.;temperature of the bath/shower was perfect Buffet food was plenty and delicious. Service was excellent (Maria) made sure we had everything we needed and more Gourmet restaurants food was very tasty. Beaches were beautiful . Seaweed was well maintained. A little patience needed for communication with some of the.employees. Very friendly atmosphere with staff, and other Travellers. All in all a great vacation would definently go again!

DO NOT CHOOSE THIS HOTEL! Most of the good comments you’ll see are pushed by the entertainment team, who constantly ask guests to leave 5-star reviews. Just read them yourself and you’ll notice the pattern. The waiter service leaves a lot to be desired. They show very little attention or motivation when serving guests. In general, the staff clearly needs serious training. The casino staff was some of the worst I’ve ever seen. Whenever you were winning, it felt like they did everything possible to make you lose, which creates a very uncomfortable and unprofessional atmosphere. The rooms are quite old for a hotel in this category, which is disappointing. The food selection is also very limited and could definitely be improved. Another issue is their “mafia-style” approach to transportation. They tell guests that Uber is not allowed so they can push you to use their taxis at inflated prices. This is simply not true—you can provide the driver’s information—but the staff will do everything possible to prevent it. The paid restaurants are just “okay,” nothing special. The only real positive is that the beach is simply beautiful, and the outdoor facilities are at the level expected for a hotel in this category. Overall, I would definitely choose other hotels on my next trip.

My friends and I had a really nice and relaxing time at this resort. Mayi and her coworkers do a great job making sure guests are comfortable and have a fun time. Dance lessons, aerobics in the pool, stretching on the beach, but we never felt pressured into taking part in anything. We stayed in the adults-only section of the resort and enjoyed the peace and quiet. I’d definitely come back! Oh and I recommend a half-day boat trip with snorkeling and views of crazy turquoise waters.
