Barceló Santiago - Adults Only

Spent 10 days here with my partner mid september. Beautiful hotel with spectacular views throughout. Layout of the hotel is great with different levels and bars throughout. Towels for the pool are provided. Go all inclusive; you wont regret it ! So well worth it. Food & drinks are amazing. They have themed food each night of the week (Italian, Spanish, American etc) and music acts from 9:30 - 10:30 - 7 days a week. We really feel the atmosphere falls dead on its feet after 10:30 with not much else around and everywhere closing at 12:00pm. Would be nice to have the bar extended till later as 12pm is quite early. The animations team really make this experience. Hotel is super quiet and to be honest borderline boring without them ! There's no music/bar music throughout the day, which i feel is lacking. The animations team (Manuel, chenzi, leo & manu) are fantastic at involving all in activities if they wish to participate - games such as, water polo, yoga, aqua aerobics, darts etc - they are there 1st thing in the morning til the end of the night - they all have such individuality and are a credit to Barcelo. Bar staff are lovely and very accommodating also. Cleaners are AMAZING - spotlessly clean every day and very friendly. There is a spa / wellness area. The teams english isnt great and there were a couple of booking issues, but resolved in due course. We didn't have much interaction with the reception team, other than checking in. We did ask if one of the football matches could be put on the tv in the bar which there was issues with as they didn't have the channel. We noticed a similar issue the following day with another guest, this would be ideal for the future as it would be an option for some guests to sit at the bar watching a game and take a break away from the sun.

What a fantastic hotel. I am currently staying here on an all-inclusive package with Jet2. The food and entertainment is excellent. Staff couldn't be more helpful. The hotel is situated on a small headland that overlooks the ocean and the Los Gigantes cliffs. Lovely views especially in the evening; the island of La Gomera is visible on clear days. I would recommend this hotel to anyone. You will have a wonderful holiday.

Such a thoughtfully designed, beautiful hotel with friendly staff and INCREDIBLE food. We did an all inclusive and were so impressed that all the drinks were included (we’ve been on some like Club Med where only pretty poor quality drinks were included). The cocktails can vary, depending on who makes them. The food is some of the best I’ve ever had in my life! A different theme every night keeps things fresh and we looked forward to seeing the unique options each night. I had a couple of restaurant reservations - I cancelled them all because the buffet was so good The staff are so friendly and happy, from the cleaning ladies to reception to the barmen and waiters to the hype men. So lovely! The rooms are immaculate and the sea views just beautiful. Plus, those cliffs 😍😍😍 Did not stop looking at them from the moment I arrived til the moment I left. There’s never a scramble to grab a lounger by the pool, there are always plenty available. It’s really quiet and peaceful. Great entertainment throughout the day and night. Perfect location - lots to do nearby, if you want to leave this beautiful resort!

In general it is a Perfect hotel for relaxing after a difficult year. Very good food. Clean pools. Amazing stunning ocean views. First line. Good massage in Spa. Comfortable small gym. Very helpful and professional staff. But the checkout is like staying in a long line like 50 years ago. It would be great if the checkout procedure becomes modern and fast like in all other hotels in any city or country.

A stay that couldn’t have been better! Huge thanks to all the hotel staff from kitchen to housekeeping for making sure everything was super comfortable for us. And an extra big shout-out to the amazing entertainment team: Manu, Chensie, Manuel, and Leonardo – for all the fun, the games, and the awesome energy that made our trip so much more enjoyable!
