Guest reviews for Barceló Costa Ballena Golf & Spa

5 out of 5
Excellent hotel. The staff were very helpful. The room was very nice. Wonderful breakfast buffet was complimentary. The dinner buffet was good but over-priced. Pool was nice. I couldn't get into the fitness center, but we did go before the summer season really got under way. The surrounding shops were not yet open. Hours of operation for shops and restaurants took some getting used to for Americans, but that's the way Europe operates.
