    The amazing Barceló Maya Grand Resort is all inclusive and located in Riviera Maya. It is just 45 minutes away from the Cancun airport. The grounds are miles long and it is very safe. I attended a wedding here and we decided to take a weeks vacation as well. The resort has six different sections including the Adults Only Barcelo Maya Riviera, Barcelo Maya Palace, Barcelo Maya Caribe, Barcelo Maya Colonial, Barcelo Maya Beach, and Barcelo Maya Tropical. During our stay in October 2020, the Caribe, Beach and Tropical section were closed. It is rumored that the Colonial section will re close until after the winter slow season but beach activities will resume. The staff did a great job with traveling during COVID and I felt safe the entire trip. More videos to come including room tours of ocean view and garden view, food information of buffets and restaurants, destination wedding, my thoughts on traveling during covid and what to expect, as well as a Q&A so if you have any questions please comment and subscribe!

    I heard about fees to use the water slide sections, also about people getting sick from drinking the water. Can you tell me about the quality of the food and extra costs for certain sections?

      Hi! The waterpark I show in this video is free but is for kids. They do have another one adults can do that has slightly larger slides and a flow rider and that is $20 per person each day you what to do that. Currently that is closed however. The free one in the palace section is open right now. As far as the water, you can get sick from Mexico water but Barcelo resort has filtered water through the entire resort and the restaurants use completely purified water for cooking. But they give you unlimited amounts of bottled water so that is what I drink my entire stay. :)

      @@claudetteallen5309 I think if I had teens I’d stay near the water activities which is at the Colonial or at the Caribe which has the mall with the arcade and bowling. Luckily those two are right next to each other as well and you can get to them very easy and fast from both sections.

    Looking at booking for April 3rd for a 10 day stay with my wife. Glad this was an honest look at the grounds and scenery and know what to expect. Honestly from experience Barcelo, Iberostar and Grand Palladium resorts always have the best spots in terms of variety and how big the resorts are!

    • @BrittsGoodGetaways
      @BrittsGoodGetaways  3 роки тому

      I love big resorts! I see a lot of popular resorts but then they only have one or two small pools. I stayed at the Grand Palladium in Jamaica two years ago and loved it as well. I did find that Barcelo had a much better beach and up keeping but that could also just be their location they got in the different countries. 10 nights is what we did on our honeymoon at Barcelo 5 years ago. Its the best to be able to stay that long! Have fun!

    • @BrittsGoodGetaways
      @BrittsGoodGetaways  Рік тому +1

      Depending how long you are staying it could be another $400-600 for two. If you think you would eat room service that much and benefit from eating out every night instead of 3-4 then yes. For me it wasn’t. Hydrotherapy and upgraded booze is included as well. We did it the first time and it has its perks for check in too but I only like to book premium if I can book a premium room at a good rate instead of a regular room with a premium band.

      Hi! I have to reupload the one about the different sections and edit a few things. I just got back from a different trip yesterday so I am planning to have that up this week again before I start those videos! I would recommend the Adults only section if you are looking for more updates and then you have access to all the sections. The night life at that section was best when I went. :)

    • @BrittsGoodGetaways
      @BrittsGoodGetaways  2 роки тому

      Technically just restaurants. I don’t think they would turn you away if you wanted to explore it and see if you liked it but they do have different wristbands so getting a drink would be the issue

    Hi there! Thank you for the video! We are wanting to take our daughter and friend as a college grad gift and wondering what the mask policy is. We thought about Maui and they are saying you have to pretty much wear masks everywhere. Is that true for this resort or no? TIA!

    • @BrittsGoodGetaways
      @BrittsGoodGetaways  3 роки тому

      Hi! They do have a mask policy in the lobby, buffets, inside bars and restaurants until eating. Most of the resort is outside so you do not have to wear them walking around by the pool or beach. Even the theaters are open air. There’s tons of space to not be on top of people as well. And all staff wears them at all times, even outside 👍🏻

      Normally the hours are 8-10 but I did hear that it is now 8-8 because of extra covid measures. I feel that I was in the pool around 8 in October (I know it was dark) and nobody was rushing us out :)

      It is not included. They did lower it to $18 dollars per person for USA antigen testing. If going to a country that needs PCR it is $90.
