Opal Holidays from AU$2,668

Loved Divi! The only thing was, the room smelled like mildew and it was very very strong for the entire trip. Everything else was amazing. Perfect location. Food is good. Safe.

My room was so nice! Very clean the staff was so nice and courteous and friendly! The grounds were beautiful the beach omg the water so was breath taking never seen nothing like it!! The food was delicious!! The drinks were so good!! And the parties was so much fun!! I want to give a shout to all the staff especially Mary, Louise and Juan!!

Overall I like the property

There was so much beach space and pool options. It never felt crowded nor did I have to fight for a space to myself. Everything was very walkable and dinner options were a great variety and equally delicious!

I’m going to review the whole resort industry as Barcelo is a typical example. Barcelo as many others is driven by the greed of its shareholders: Minimizing costs and maximizing profits. This “philosophy” is the major cause of why your vacation is getting more expensive while the service is getting worse. Those companies rob native people of all those beautiful islands and force them to “dance” in front of tourists for a couple of bucks. No tipping policy should be an official rule in every all inclusive hotel combined with decent wages for the staff because this is just disrespectful to the tourists who paid already and also unsanitary. These islands are natural resources like oil and locals should have more control over profits made on their lands. Look at how some people of oil nations in the Middle East live now for example. I think more money should stay in those islands for locals and not go overseas to feed fat rats aka shareholders. And finally the tourists themselves! Why do some people behave like pigs? Why are they destroying the rooms? Why are they littering? Why do they just not clean up after themselves a bit?
