All spruced up and ready to greet guests again,
Barcelo Hotels & Resorts will reopen the Barcelo Tucancun Beach
Hotel in Cancun on April 22. Closed since Hurricane Wilma, the
property has undergone a multimillion dollar renovation and
remodeling that includes a new reception area and lobby bar, new
restaurants, new swimming pool with deck area and new lounge area
with hammocks for guests to enjoy the Caribbean view.
In addition, the property’s 315 guest rooms and
villas have been refurbished to add to guest comfort. The
government sponsored beach rejuvenation program is also underway,
with expectations that the beach will be restored to its pre-Wilma
state or possibly even nicer by the time the Barcelo Tucancun is
ready to reopen.
“When the Tucancun reopens in April, it will be a
brilliant new hotel delivering state of the art guest services and
amenities,” said Fiona Taylor, director of marketing for Barcelo
Hotels & Resorts. “With the help of our dedicated employees, we
have used these past few months to update and improve the hotel’s
facilities and we will reopen as a first class property.”
The property is situated 25 minutes from Cancun
International Airport and 20 minutes from downtown Cancun. From its
seaside location, guests can enjoy views and activities along both
the Caribbean and the Nichupte Lagoon.
In addition to its beachfront location, the hotel
has a new pool area with an extended deck, and freshwater pools
including both a jetted pool and a children’s fenced water play
area. New to the hotel and available as a premium Barcelo guest
service, expanded spa treatments include aromatherapy, hydro
massage and sports massages.
For dining, guests can enjoy two new restaurants
Don Quijote, a Spanish cuisine dinner buffet restaurant, and La
Claraboya, a contemporary seafood a la carte restaurant. The
international buffet restaurant, El Caffe, has been remodeled and
expanded, and the hotel’s popular Mexico Lindo has also been
totally remodeled.
“We look forward to welcoming our first guests back
to the Barcelo Tucancun,” added Taylor. “We know that they will
find the new face of Cancun and the Barcelo Tucancun beautiful, but
what remains unchanged is the warm heartfelt welcome that makes
Cancun famous.”
