Food & drink prices at Barefoot Eco Hotel
F&B pricing is a mixed value proposition: alcohol is completely unavailable, bar food is poor quality and overpriced, but full board packages may offer good value relative to à la carte costs.
No significant temporal pattern detected. The no-alcohol policy is consistent across reviews from 2018, 2026, and an undated 2018 review. Bar food complaints are from 2017. The recency of the 2026 complaint about alcohol availability suggests the policy remains in effect."
What the reviews tell us
No alcohol of any kind is served at the hotel, eliminating sunset drinks and evening beverage options entirely.
Bar food offerings are criticized for poor quality and low variety, with specific examples of overpriced industrialized dishes (USD 12 pasta box).
Juice bar drinks are not included in half or full board packages, requiring additional out-of-pocket spending.
Full board appears to offer reasonable value relative to à la carte bar snack pricing, suggesting meal packages mitigate high ancillary costs.
Barefoot Eco Hotel's food and beverage pricing presents significant trade-offs. The hotel operates as an alcohol-free establishment with no beer, wine, or spirits available, which is a critical constraint for guests seeking evening drinks. Bar food suffers from both quality and pricing concerns—reviewers report industrialized, low-variety options priced substantially above comparable European market rates (pasta box at USD 12 criticized as worth EUR 2 in Europe). Juice bar beverages are explicitly excluded from half and full board packages, creating additional costs beyond base meal plans. However, the high cost of à la carte bar snacks suggests that booking full board may provide genuine savings compared to paying per item. The evidence base is thin and drawn from reviews spanning 2017–2026, with limited specificity on breakfast inclusion terms or current pricing.
The evidence
Both sides shown — including dissenting reviewsthere is not a single drop of alcohol in the hotel, not even beer or prosecco to enjoy the sunset
Not included in the half board/ full board, though
shame the poor variety and low quality of food offered in the bar...offer an industrialised chicken pasta box for 12 USD!! It is awful and costs max 2 Euro in Europe!!
