The entertainment of this resort is a plus. The food was good, but it can be better. The Mexican restaurant can be improved to make it more authentic even though the air conditioner was not working when I stay there. I would still revisit hotel again. The rooms were very clean. The people were very nice. I would recommend this hotel to anyone..

Iberostar has lost its reputation. This was my fourth — and definitely last — stay at an Iberostar. The quality and service have declined terribly. Our room had a clogged toilet when we arrived, and dining was a mess — staff would see you walking around with plates looking for seating but didn’t help guests find a table or stay organized. On top of that, I spent much of my trip trying to resolve an issue with my reservation and funds. The staff were unhelpful and dismissive, and the manager was never available despite multiple requests. They even told me my money would be held securely until it was resolved — but it wasn’t. Several employees admitted this happens often to guests who book through Expedia, yet Iberostar does nothing to prevent it and simply adds extra fees. It’s clear they don’t care about their guests anymore. This was by far my worst resort experience, and I’ll never return. I strongly recommend others stay elsewhere and do not book with Expedia.

The reception service didn't acomodate my family, part of my children were up to the 3ee floor and me ,my husband,and.my little one son 2nd F, far from us , the girl was very nice and friendly , but she didn't fix the issue, at the room was one bed in each room, one of the carriers guy help me about reporting the issue of the bed , they just send 1 bed and never sent the other bed for we claimed to our room, we have to sleep with our son unconftible , some of the staff help me to reported. After 3 day I figure out that in my mom's room which she had been with 2 of my children was whater leaked in the bathroom then we reported it at the front desk and the staff just said sorry for the inconvenience, I've got an awesome memories at the Iberostar resort since my first child born, as now the it was some issue that wasn't that good as it was before. In the others hand the room was perfect cleaned, the staff friendly, respectful and the show was soso , my children had a great time there, the food soso.

They will get mad if they offer you something and you don’t take it. Plus I requested chocolate and flowers to surprises my wife and when we got to the room We didn’t see nothing when my Wife noticed that I’m mad I had to tell her what I requested. Than we went to complaint about it that’s when they decided to bring it back I’m like it’s too late now. The room had no soap in the bathroom and no washcloth. The drinks are not natural drinks

I stayed here about 10 years ago and it was one of the best places I ever stayed. I came back in hopes of my family having the same experience. Upon arrival I noticed some changes but stayed positive. I immediately requested an upgrade-I didn’t care if I had to pay more I wanted the best experience. The response was the upgrade would be pool view but nothing else (the room size would remain the same). I didn’t bother, we got to our room and it felt like a large walk in closet with bad lighting. Two full sized beds for 2 adults and 2 grown girls felt claustrophobic. We changed to go to the pool, forgot our glasses and the key card stopped working-we were locked out (this happened about 5x within the first 2 days). When we showered the water splashed out of the bathroom making the floor wet and slippery-I’m sure people fall all the time! None of the USB ports worked, half of the outlets worked, the fan squeaked like an horror movie and both the ac and fan stopped working the last night of our stay. We called the front desk and the said they would send someone but never did. The staff does their best to clean, smile, offer assistance, and entertain. The food is good, though one night we had a reservation at the Italian restaurant, waited 20 minutes just to get water after another 20 with no one taking our order we got up and went to the buffet. The beach is close but you constantly get guys trying to sell you their excursions. Over all we made the best of it…
