La Barbacoa Hotels with Swimming Pool

"We had food poisoning "

"Overall I will not be coming back to this resort, also not sure if I would recommend it. The staff was friendly for the most part. The food was probably my favorite part about it. The decor was nice, the beach was beautiful. But it was very small, not much to do, no swim up bar, only one pool for everyone, very little liquor choice, especially if you’re not a VIP. In our room, the floor felt dirty, and the swim up pool in the back was dirty, I had asked for them to clean it and it was not cleaned, so we never used it. My fiancé had also paid for the room to be decorated for my birthday, along with a beachside dinner. We had to tell them to decorate the room and we were never told about the beachside dinner at all, never mentioned it once. We ended up paying for an excursion and during the excursion, which was horse ride to the Salto de Limon, we knew the locals who helped out with the horses were plotting to rob my fiance. They were talking in Spanish not knowing we were very well aware of that Spanish dialect. Luckily by the grace of God we ended up avoiding it, stayed close to the Tour Guide. But when riding the horses the tour guide doesn’t join, so we were in the middle of the trail alone with these people who are only volunteers. Multiple of them were involved in the plotting. I hope this excursion is more aware of who they let volunteer We addressed this with the resort, but I don’t feel like they did enough to help us out with the scares and the inconveniences."

"my husband and I went for a parent only trip and we absolutely loved the resort, it was very clean and everyone was super helpful and attentive to our needs. we stayed for 4 days and we wished we could have stayed longer. Wish there was more bar tenders by the pool as at times you waited a bit for your drinks but with the amazing views of the beach from the bar I don't thik anyone really noticed! we would definitely choose to stay here again it forced you to stop and just take in the beauty of this beautiful country!"

"It’s a great basic hotel for the money. It’s not a bad deal but know that it’s basic. And for me it was expected in a small beach town of a Third World country. So there was nothing disappointing except for the Internet. I was completely lied to, and they tried to deceive me by telling me that I typed in the wrong Internet and finally when I told her why don’t you come to my room and show me because she said I can only access it from the room and not in the lobby. Then she finally admitted that there’s no Wi-Fi and they will fix it tomorrow. There was also the largest cockroach I’ve ever seen But again I imagine that’s something that is in a surprise in a town of a Third World country."

"Stayed 5 nights. No problems. Staff always accessible. Close to everything. Will come back. "

"Clean room, Good breakfast. Excellent beach view"

"It was amazing the place...Great staff, great entertainment group and overall a great place.....the place is not to big, not to small..Just right...the vibes were good for all.parties.. The Buffet was good One thing possible to fix, were the la carte restaurants..Although the cuts of meats were ok, I feel they can do better. But the Italian restaurant was great."

"I had an amazing time here at hotel bannister. The view was amazing, the hotel was clean, and the staff was extremely friendly, welcoming and helpful. The breakfast on site was great as were the restaurants. Overall I had an amazing time and would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone."

"The room was clean and well maintained. The staff was very attentive and hospitable. We enjoyed our stay even though it rained the first two days. I loved getting up early and walking around the island listening to the doves every morning. "
