Jr. Suite Swim-Up at the New Barcelo Maya Riviera–A Suite Review

I recently returned from a stay at the new adults-only section of the Barcelo Maya Grand resort.  It’s called the Barcelo Maya Riviera, and it is a complete reversal in appearance from the rest of this megaresort.  While a vacationer is more likely to feel as if one is in Mexico at the other resorts in this complex, the new adults-only section is very contemporary looking with modern decor, sleek lines, updated technology, huge screens in the lobby areas, and a much more spartan look throughout.  Guests at the new adults-only section have full access to all amenities at the other resorts at this complex including being able to eat at Palace restaurants without any extra charges.

Found another great video of the new adults-only Barcelo Maya Riviera.  The public spaces look great–the lobby looks very huge and impressive!  I also liked the large entertainment stage, hopefully they won’t have a Michael Jackson tribute show which almost every Mexican all-inclusive resort puts on. Ughh.  The spa video, however, looks like the main spa over at the Colonial, I will have to see whether this resort has a smaller version.

Barcelo Maya Riviera–New Video

There’s a new video out highlighting various aspects and amenities of the new adults-only resort, Barcelo Maya Riviera.  I’ve been tracking this one because it is the first resort at which I will be staying the end of February 2020.  The video shows room amenities and views, some food displays (think crab and other seafood for lunch buffet), as well as the pool and beach areas.  Some reports of recent guests say there still is no dinner buffet here which is surprising, but it may change once spring break arrives. I’ve heard this resort is extremely disabled-friendly with large ramps to be able to access the beach which is always a good thing.

Jr. Suite Oceanfront Video at the New Barcelo Maya Riviera

Interior resort videos are starting to come out at the new adults-only Barcelo Maya Riviera.  The resort just opened several days ago and it is slowly being filled by guests; right now it is pretty much a ghost town, but with Christmas and New Years coming up I’m sure the resort will be pretty much at capacity.  This new resort has 850 suites; 110 of them are swim-ups.  It will have the largest conference facilities in the Riviera Maya, so the resort has yet to experience what this will be like for the entire mega-resort (the entire resort property offers over 1.5 miles of beachfront with five additional resorts–the Barcelo Maya Beach which is right next door, the Maya Caribe, Maya Colonial, Maya Tropical, and the Palace which is at the far north end).

For those readers curious about the brand new adults-only Barcelo resort, a new drone video has been posted on YouTube.  Just thought I’d post it here in case you don’t visit YouTube with any regularity.   This resort is actually ahead of its construction schedule and will be opening on time this December 2019.

Here’s a new map of the Barceló Maya Grand Resort with the addition of the new adults-only section (Barceló Maya Riviera) which is scheduled to open Dec. 2019.  850 rooms, four pools, five restaurants, five bars, a new convention center, plus access to the rest of the entire resort. I’m going late Feb. 2020 and staying in a swim-up suite–can’t wait to see it and the rest of this great resort.  I have my favorite hangouts which I discovered on my trip here July 2018, and looking forward to adding more favorites to my list!
