Stayed here for 10 days on all inclusive.Our suite was very big with a separate bedroom and a sofa bed with a pull out second bed. We had the bedroom and the kids had the sofa beds which worked out well. Food was good plenty of choice and of a good standard.Not all the food by the pool bar is on all inclusive though.Staff work really hard trying to serve everyone. You can choose half board, full board or all inclusive. All inclusive drinks finish at 11pm at night.Entertainment at night was quite good have seen worse.Pools were very cold which didn't seem to bother the kids. Also very windy but this is normal for the canaries. Not much around the hotel and the Occidental hotel is across the road. There is a free bus into costa teguise every 20 mins. We paid a good price and had a good holiday.Relaxabroad organised private transfers for us which was perfect out of the airport and at the hotel within 30 mins of landing.

When we arrived at the Barcelo our room was not ready, we left our cases in a secure luggage room and went for a walk.
On arriving back to the hotel our room was ready, there is no porters to help you with your luggage so you have to find your own way.
I had emailed the hotel before travel asking for a high floor, which we got and a free upgrade to a junior suite, separate bedroom and lounge area with tv and a very good safe which you have to pay for.
our view was overlooking the see and the port where the cruise ships dock into, there was also a view of a waste ground which i think another hotel is being built, no noise and it didnt bother us.
air con is free by the way

The hotel food is nice i am quite fussy but always found something, we were on a half board option but in the end we swapped our dinner to lunch everyday so we could eat out.

At breakfast you get served coffee and milk then its buffet style with fresh fruit, hames, cheese, sauage, eggs, beans, fresh bread etc, breakfast was from 7 until 10.30

Lunch was served in the dinning area they served alot of fish, but there was also chicken, beef, veg, potatoes, bread,chips, pizza, lots of desserts and ice cream.

Also you can eat in the snack bar (you have to pay if half board or all inclusive its included) this mainly considered of pizza, toasties and burgers, but to be honest it took that long to be served its probably best to have lunch in the dinning hall.

We only had dinner twice and it was very simalar to lunch.

The only problem was you had to que alot , for drinks at the pool bar or to get into the dinning hall, so dont go as soon as it opens!!

We didnt watch any of the entertainment but it seemed it went on from morning until night which is great for kids, theres one pool where all this takes place and looked abit busy, we opted for the adults pool, small pool but very quiet, but children where round the pool!!

The hotel is very clean and well presented so are all the staff, you can have your room clean daily if you wish or just put your do not disurb sign up and they will not cean!

You can hire towels from the hotel which we didnt do but i think it was abiut 12euros.

The location of the hotel is abit far out which we knew anyway to get costa teguise town it was 3 to 4 euros in a taxi, their is a free bus as well.

Costa teguise is quite small and quiets but some lovely restaurants, i would recommend the tex mex and that chinese! There is also a few bars as well.

Puerto del carmen we were told was a 15euro each way taxi.

There are lots of things to do on the island, we only did the aquirum, costin 12euros each and is in costa teguise very good morning out!

All in all i probably would go back to this hotel if it was self catering or i would stay in puerto del carmen as costa teg is quiet, great for couple and familys wanted a quite relaxing holiday!!!

All inclusive was good value with plenty of choice including premium brands. Full table service in the entertainment area at night and often drinks were automatically brought when glasses were empty.

The Hotel including the rooms are well presented and spotless. We were upgraded to a sea view suite for no extra cost.

The selection of food was excellent but it was never quite hot. The food choice in the restaurant would not suit people who live on burgers and chips for anyone else it was food heaven with a good selection of international food.

The hotel is located on the far outskirts of Costa Teguise but is easily accessible by the hotel or service bus.

My sister and I found the entertainment OK in the evenings and better than we had expected. The entertainment staff work hard day and night to keep everyone happy.

I would visit the hotel again but would not recommend it for more than a week.

This was our second holiday in Lanzorote but our first time in costa tiguise.

The hotel was very clean and the maid was quite thorough,bins empties,floors sweeped and mopped, bathroom and bedroom cleaned everyday, also the hotel surrounds and gardens were kept clean, always a maid busy with something somewhere.

The main "street" was shaped round our hotel and the 1 next door, down buy our hotel was the best restaraunt in the resort "the cutty sark" you must go their for brekfast and evening meal- really nice!!!

The hotel staff were really friendly ideal for the 14 year old in our party as he is learning spanish at school and the maids and the reception staff would spair some time and have a full spanish conversation with him!

We didnt really use the entertainment, however the guy who took care of the activities during the day would always try to keep us active and get us up to do different activities.



My only concern is that in our room their was a strong drainage smell coming up through the kitchen sink. However this was resolved by buying a bottle of bleach and putting some everytime we finished washing up.

Anyone looking to book this? Look no further
this is the place for everyone!

Hotel clean and staff great.

Food was always warm at dinner nothing was hot, good selection of food and quality good just never hot.

Location was too far out for us the entertainment while we were there was only on for about a hour and half, rest of the time its just music playing. There were a few bars about 20 min walk away but the roads were very dark so wouldn't like to walk too far.

When you book this hotel make sure you are not in the back as there is a busy main road and you can hear the traffic quite a bit.

The beds are very hard if you are used to a soft bed they are like sleeping on a table! Water in the bathroom is warm like the food never very hot.

This is a great hotel. The hotel and pool areas are very clean. Our room had a large living room, large separate bedroom and sizeable bathroom. The balcony was also large but the view was of wasteland and the main road. This didn't matter as the room was so comfortable. The 2 main pools are large.

The Barcelo has it spot on for food. It is well presented from various food bars, lots of choice and it's very tasty. They have about 4 fish dishes to choose from, but also 3 other meats each night. Lots of salad to choose from, and also a couple of pasta dishes. Breakfast also gives lots of choice.

The staff were helpful and friendly and sorted requests out quickly.

The only problem is the location of the hotel. There is a small parade of (expensive) shops in front of the hotel, and a cheap supermarket at the back. Apart from that, nothing else is around. It's a 10-15 minute walk to the nearest strip of bars and restaurants, and these are still on the outskirts of the main resort. The hotel does provide a free bus during the day to the resort, which runs every half an hour (stops at 5.30pm). There is also a bus service which runs every 20 minutes and costs

We stayed at the Barcelo Lanzarote for two weeks in June. We fond the hotel and all its grounds to be very clean and tidy, could not fault this at all. The food was good with alot of choice and as we were all inclusive took full advantage to try everything.

The hotel is situated out of the town but there is a free bus every half hour. To walk to the town takes about 45 minutes.All the hotel staff were very pleasant.

The entertainment was dire unless you like kids games and multi-lingual bingo every night.

Towards the end of our stay they opened the other bar (after alot of complaints from several guests) Iwould stay here again but there are too many nice places in the world to keep going back to the same place

Stayed for 1 week half board, reading previous reports expected decent holiday. Well standards must have really dropped since they visited. Undercooked meat at dinner times, salads with greenfly, and the rudest restaurant receptionist I have ever met.

On first night arrived at 10 pm and was told by reception a cold meal was waiting for us in the reception, when entered restaurant was promptly thrown out and told by the waiter that rest/ manager stated he was not staying after 10pm just to look after late arrivals.

Next day complained about greenfly in salad and was told dont eat it then. Hotel has the potential to be absolutely fantastic but needs to clean up its act a lot. Chambermaid was great, room was spotless every day, advise you to leave light on at night otherwise roaches come out to play !!! ( just about every where in lanzarote unfortunately)

Entertainment was not bad compared to other hotels and pretty much holiday fair.

I would not go back or advise others to go unless radical changes made.

In general we have had an enjoyable holiday, wishing we were there for two weeks instead of just one.

The staff were extremely friendly and helpful, and the animation team gave it their best - we have a two year old, and the mini club was excellent. Unfortunately, one of the bars is closed at the moment, so everything entertainment wise was in just the one area.

We were lucky to be allocated a suite, even though we didn't pay for it - the hotel was nowhere near full - we never saw anyone else on our floor in our block.

The only negative comment was that on a few occasions, chicken prepared in the show cooking are was under cooked - probably because a queue had formed and the chef was in a hurry. The rest of the food was nice enough, quite a good selection. Unfortunately, my daughter lived on bread, chips, donuts, yoghurt and ice cream - but she is only two. We had plenty, especially lovely cakes and deserts.

All in all, a good holiday, we enjoyed ourselves, weather good (a bit windy), nice and relaxing.

Stayed as family in Barcelo Lanzarote(Costa Teguise). Were allocated two adjacent suites of Large lounge with balcony, big bedroom, bathroom and w.c. There are six separate low rise blocks away from main reception area. Accommodation spotless as was hotel and all faclities. Plenty of sun beds. Staff efficient and polite. Large rather impersonal dining room but with good food and enormous choice both for breakfast and dinner- you just could not go hungry!

Only draw back possibly that hotel was on outskirts and you were tied to Hotel in evenings as no immediate cafes/bars unless took taxi to main Resort, but which were cheap about 3 euros. Hotel bar prices 3 euros for 40cl beer as opposed to 2 euos in bars elsewhere. Hotel ran half hourly min-bus to main beaches during day.

Overall found this an excllent hotel and can certainly recommend.
