Hotels near Playa Esmerelda

"We had a great 7 night stay at Barcelo in November 2025. Our group of 10 were split into both towers. The standard rooms were larger than we expected and the family suite had two rooms and two bathrooms. We enjoyed the restaurants, but almost preferred the buffet as the options changed daily. The beach was small but beautiful and welcoming. There was so much shade covering the pool which was great for our group as none of us burnt! The staff was probably the best part of the trip! Cesar in the Premium lounge was so welcoming and helpful in whatever we needed (including our daily Spanish lessons), the entire entertainment staff at the pool and evening shows (especially Fernando) kept our group busy, and Gerardo at the pool bar made sure we had a good time! We met some friends from places near and far. The resort is small enough that you feel safe and recognize people throughout your stay. We will be back and can’t wait to see the staff again! <3"
