Barceló Hotels & Resorts Breaks Ground for New Lodging in Mexico’s Mayan Riviera

Barceló Hotels & Resorts has announced that construction is underway on a fifth luxury property at its expansive all- inclusive resort complex: the Barceló Maya Beach Resort in Mexico.

The newest hotel at the resort is oceanfront, will include 756 all-suite luxury guestrooms and it is scheduled to welcome guests in December of 2007. Recently, the Resort announced the addition of a new European style Spa complex which will open next month for the 2006-2007 winter season.

The newest hotel is located Oceanside along the resort’s mile long beach. It offers ocean or garden views from all guest suites.

The architectural theme continues with a Mayan influence, but expands to provide a modern twist on Mayan style. The hotel’s Lobby is three stories and opens to the sea with a spectacular view.

The property is accented with wrought iron trim and cobblestone walkways creating a warm and welcoming Mediterranean influence. Each spacious guest suite includes a comfortable sitting area with two couches for lounging, as well as a desk, and sleeping area.

The guest suites have two telephone lines and high speed internet access, cable TV and large resort bathrooms with walk-in showers and tubs. The new hotel will also add five new restaurants.

There will be two international buffet restaurants open for breakfast, lunch and dinner serving an array of Continental, American and Mexican favorites.

There will also be three specialty restaurants: a French Brassiere, a Brazilian Rodizio and a Caribbean Seafood Grill. The new hotel will also have its own expansive pool and beach area, as well as access to the resort’s additional restaurants, amenities and conference facilities.
