Barcelo Maya Master Suite or Rooms 1 or 12?

Can someone explain to me the difference? I have read that the rooms ending in 1 or 12 are on the corners with hammocks, what is different from the master suite?

I have tried to sign up for that site 3 different times, using 3 different email addresses. NOT once has the confirmation been sent to me. I tried to personally contact the moderators to no avail. I have gotten the run around each time. I refuse to look to that board for advice!

Try posting this over in the AI section of this message board. Shammy is a moderator on this board and on the Barcelo Board, I am sure she can give you the info.
Or maybe James will just move this thread since it does have to do with an AI resort.

I dont think there is alot of differences in the rooms at the Barcelo except the master suites are just a little big bigger, have a sitting area and a hammock on the porch.

I guess it depends on how much time you spend in the room and how many people are staying in it - if a master suite would be worth it.

Sheryl,

I am a moderator over on the Barcelo board and I for one, have not been contacted by someone who I couldn't grant access to. Not sure where you sent your e mails regarding any problems that you were having but if you tell me what name(s) you registered under, I can go in and check to see if they actually went through and get you set up immediately. Send me an e mail....annalynne at lonepalmtravel dot com (but put it all together like it should be...trying to ward off spammers! )
And if you'd rather not try to register, that's fine too...I can answer you here as well.

Rooms 1 and 12 are regular, standard rooms but have bigger balconies because they are next to junior suites, which are rooms 2 and 11.
Master suites are something completely different. They are much larger, have a jacuzzi, dining table and chairs and a living area that is seperate from the rest of the room. There are only 5 of them at the hotel and they are extremely difficult to book. I have never been able to book them for anyone with any of my suppliers, that room category is just not usually availabe but I have booked a standard room and then contacted the hotel to ask for an upgrade. Once folks hear the price it usually costs TO upgrade to a Master suite, they usually downgrade again!

Again, I'm sorry that you had difficulty registering on the Barcelo board. Just contact me if you'd like me to help you out.
(p.s. I'll be away from 8/18-8/24 so do it before if possible)

Nevermind all that above...well, except for the room information part....

Sheryl, I found you under the name "Sheryl" (imagine that!) and activated your account. You're free to post now.
