Barceló La Jolla de Mismaloya

$$$ | Carretera a Barra de Navidad, Km 11.5, 48300, Mexico

Guests consistently give this hotel high marks for the classy suites, each with a brown-and-taupe color scheme and an ample terrace. Separate sitting rooms have a second flat-screen TV, and there's even a pillow menu. The pools are surrounded by spacious patios, so there's plenty of room to find the perfect spot in the sun or the shade. Given the elegance of the place, it's a shame to have to wear the usual wristbands.

Pros

  • Recently redecorated and remodeled
  • Concierge service
  • Lots of on-site dining and activity options

Cons

  • Least expensive rooms don't have ocean views
  • No bathtubs
  • Crowded beach with lots of vendors
