The experience at Barcelo La Nuncia Palms was a big disappointment and borderline scam. Standards reflect a 3 star Motel, not a 5 star ‘luxury resort’, which is also reflected in the service level and compassion towards guests. One can accept a certain level of flaws with a newly opened hotel, but this was completely unacceptable and anyone considering to visit the hotel should be prepared to take a deep breath and monitor their pulse closely.
Despite filling in all the information in their “pre check-in form”, we still had to queue and provide the same information again, then to be told that the room would not be ready until later (4 hours after check-in opens). Once arriving in the room, they had forgot towels, amenities, robes, water, etc. which was then blamed on Corona when questioning in the reception… unacceptable. After raising my voice, we received towels and the following day, we received two bottles of water (without bottle opener, not included).
The pool area has one shallow pool for kids and one for adults. Despite this, one has to put up with screaming children in the adult pool with jumping and splashing, without the staff saying anything. The level of irritation amongst adults around the pool was high and nobody could relax. The pictures don’t give a fair view of the premises, and the surroundings are depressive with big supermarkets and car dealerships.
Again, massive disappointment and I’ll be seeking compensation for these 4 days of misery.
