Superior Room FAQs
What does the Superior Room at Barceló Tambor look out onto, and is the view worth it?
Every Superior Room opens onto a private balcony or patio with garden views, looking over the resort’s landscaped grounds rather than the pool or ocean. It’s a peaceful outlook for morning coffee before heading down to the beach or pools, and a good value pick if the sea view isn’t a priority.
How are the beds set up, and how many people can comfortably stay in the room?
The room is configured with 1 King or 2 Double Beds, and it comfortably sleeps up to four guests. The two-double setup works well for families, while the king bed suits couples wanting a bit more space in the 398 sq. ft. footprint.
Does the Superior Room have a balcony, and how is it typically used?
Yes, each Superior Room includes a private balcony or patio, furnished for relaxing rather than dining. Since rooms are reached via exterior corridors, the balcony also offers a bit of fresh-air access right outside your door, overlooking Barceló Tambor’s tropical gardens.
What can guests expect from the bathroom in this room category?
The bathroom is a partially open design with a shower/tub combination, bidet, and hair dryer, plus bathrobes and complimentary toiletries. It’s a practical, well-equipped setup suited to both quick turnarounds and longer soaks after a day at the beach.
How does the Superior Room compare to other room categories at the resort?
The Superior Room is Barceló Tambor’s classic entry-level category, giving guests all the essentials — air conditioning, minibar, safe, satellite TV — in a compact, garden-view setting. Higher categories at the resort typically add features like upgraded views or additional living space, so the Superior Room suits travelers who want comfort without extra frills.
What's included for guests staying in a Superior Room?
Booking a Superior Room includes full access to Barceló Tambor’s all-inclusive program, covering three buffet meals daily from arrival lunch through departure breakfast, plus food and drinks at the resort’s restaurants and bars, including Italian, Japanese, and steakhouse dining options. Daily housekeeping and free Wi-Fi are also part of the stay.
Is the Superior Room a good fit for families, couples, or longer stays?
It works well for families, since it sleeps four and the resort offers free cribs and paid in-room childcare, along with a children’s club and children’s pool elsewhere on property. Couples also find it comfortable for shorter breaks, and the desk and ample storage make it practical for longer visits too.
How far is the Superior Room from the beach, pools, and restaurants?
Barceló Tambor’s rooms are arranged in low-rise blocks connected by exterior walkways, so Superior Rooms are typically just a short stroll from the resort’s two connected outdoor pools, the on-site restaurants, and the Blue Flag-certified Tambor Beach just beyond the gardens.
Is there a quieter side of the resort worth requesting for a Superior Room?
Because Superior Rooms face the gardens rather than the pool deck, they tend to sit further from the daytime pool activity and evening entertainment area, making them a naturally quieter choice than pool-view or beachfront categories.
What should guests know about the Superior Room before booking?
Rooms are accessed via exterior corridors and can be booked in smoking or non-smoking configurations, so it’s worth specifying a preference. The minibar is restocked for a fee, and while Wi-Fi is complimentary, guests planning heavy streaming should expect standard resort-speed connectivity.
