We found there was a definite lack of communication from the resort. A prime example was the day they upgraded the room locks, the resort dropped off a notice 4 hours after the fact which stated you would be able to exchange your keys the next day. Another example demonstrating the lack of communication there was no posting of the nightly activities in a easily accessible area, the only sign we found posted was by the far end of the pool, which we stumbled upon only because the towel exchange we normally used happened to be closed early. Even then it only had that day’s activity not a weekly schedule. It appears though Iberostar is putting efforts into the lands and building maintenance to extend the life of the facilities and sell their Star Prestige program there was little in the way of customer appreciation.

The front desk staff is not well trained. Also difficult to get chairs by the beach. Although we were told that we could use all the facilities when we sat at the Iberostar next door only place we could find chairs they treated us like criminals. They borough securiTy and the youn woman working at the beach was very rude to us that we were not allowed to use those chair because it a different class hotel and we were not paying for that. My husband was talking with her and I was in my phone, so she said that if I was taking pictures of her she is calling the police!! It's too bad this happened as we had been there before but with this experience never again. I've never felt so insulted . We tried and asked for a manager but they could not get someone and did not care.

We stayed Jan2-Jan 9. The resort was beautiful clean and for the most part staff was great. Until we got to the membership pitch. Since we weren’t interested we were dismissed treated with less importance because we didnt want the membership. we didnt get checked on after we turned down the membership. Kind of rude but sure we can over look that. But unfortunately we won’t be returning to this resort because of the infestation of “cuatis” or nasua animals. These animals are over populated on the property and walk up take your food and drinks with no fear of being shoed off or anything. I sat down at a picnic table that is right next to the restaurant and these animals came out from the trees and shrubs jumped on my table and took my food. Didn’t even flinch after I tried to shoe them off. Instantly I had over 15 of these animals on my table taking my food. There are garbage cans on the side walk next to the bleach but are locked. So patrons just put there garbage on top of the cans anyways because the staff told them to leave it there. And then they get these animals all over the cans. We even went golfing and were warned to not leave our wallets or phone in the golf cart because they will get on the carts. Sure enough during our round of golf they invaded our cart took our drinks and searched for food. This is very unsafe and not clean at all. They’re just over sized rats. Resort needs to control the population of these animals and keep them from invading eating areas.

The staff and facilities were fantastic. Rooms were clean and comfortable. The beach was wonderful with easy access to the water. Waves and water temperature were perfect. Unfortunately the "mini" bar in the room was only stocked with 2 beer- no other alcohol was supplied in the room. It was difficult to get a lounge chair at the beach unless you went down at 7:30 am to settle in for the day. Leaving your things on the lounges to reserve for later in the day was frowned upon.

We had a great vacation at the Iberostar Waves Paraiso del Mar. The hotel grounds is lovely with lots of wildlife including beautiful peacocks. The beach was picturesque and very clean as well as safe although the waves were a bit rough. But it was fun. There were many different options of places to eat and the most of the food was great.

Overall, it had similar qualities as you would see in most big resorts, particularly cleanliness, and service. However, I felt the food was just mediocre at the buffets, and the food was usually not hot. It was also very difficult to make reservations for the two à la carts that required it, indicating they were full a car first day of arrival all through the week. After being tenacious, I was able to get one for my family.. Also, I found it really frustrating in our ability to find chairs and lounges at the beach and in the pool area, unless you woke up very early, like around 7 AM.
