The staff is very friendly and helpful, they keep the rooms clean, the water in one of the pools looks dirty and the buffet doesn't have many options, they never serve mangu for breakfast, which for me is basic for breakfast, and almost never fried chicken, which is what children eat the most.

Loved our stay & the property. Only downfall to our trip was the seaweed on the beach. Apparently August is when mass amounts of seaweed wash up to shore, so we didn't enjoy the ocean water as I had imagined. This is obviously not the resorts fault, just mother nature & a lack of knowledge on my part. The resort did their best to clean it up every morning running tractors to discard as much as they could. Not all resorts along the beach were doing this & we were very grateful for their efforts! Definitely looking forward to returning at a different time of year when the seaweed isn't taking over the shoreline. The pool, the views, the staff & the excursions were all amazing!

The property entrance is shared by several other hotels, Iberostar group has like 4 different hotels in the same location. Some of the restaurants are accessible to guests from different hotels. The variety of food is great (asian, latin, french, italian, american/bar food) however; they love to nickel and dime you for things like steak and lobster (even as an all -inclusive these cost $25-$65 extra. The staff are very attentive and super friendly. One thing that I was hoping is for the waiters to come around the pool and serve us there. There is no service by the pool or by the beach, you have to walk to the nearest bar and get your drinks. They only have presidente beer as an offering in most of the bars. I called it Dictator beer. The rooms are showing their age, there is mold around the A/C vents in my room. Also the TV service is horrible at best. They offer over 100 channels of which only 30 or so are watchable. The rest are either no signal, or too pixelated. The best two restaurants La Sibila (French) and the Italian option are only with reservation, you can only do one reservation in each restaurant per each stay. Meaning you are not allowed to repeat any of the restaurants unless you are staying for more than 2 weeks. The service hours for the restaurants is also not the best. There're 30-45min gaps where there is no food around in any of the major buffets/restaurants. The food service also ends at 10:30pm on all restaurants. I wouldn't recommend this place

Cons first then Pros. Cons: We felt that majority of the staff did not smile and was a little condescending. We noticed that in the morning the property felt like it was dirty in some areas. Food plates were left around the property from the night before. The tongs/utensiles to get food from the Buffett were very difficult to use. We did not get coffee and water service during the Buffett in a timely manner after asking for it several times. No US dollar ATM on property. Our concierge said they were only able to make one reservation per restaurant during our 7 day trip. We wanted to have Italian twice and we could not. They could use a swim up bar or another pool side bar. TV did not work. Third bed leg was broken. They fixed it but not really because it fell off again. There is no exception for kids club ages. Our 13 and 11 year old could not be together. The best part of the 11 year old club is as the trampoline in which it was broken. We got dropped off at the hotel 2 doors over after and excursion and the driver of one of the golf carts seemed irritated to drive us back to our location. Pros: check in/check out was easy. Our concierge was always smiling and great! Cudos to Rosa! The woman that handled our excursions did a great job. Food was excellent. Pools were clean and nice. Activity’s and entertainment was good.

"Our stay was underwhelming due to several operational issues and inconsistent service. Upon check-in, our room keys were not working, requiring multiple trips to the front desk to resolve. Each time, only partial success was achieved, leading to repeated inconvenience. Crucially, no introductory information about the hotel's facilities (e.g., buffet hours, amenity locations) was provided. We had to call the front desk for all basic details. Many advertised facilities, including restaurants and the kids' play zone, consistently opened 15-20 minutes late. We recommend arriving 30 minutes after the stated opening time to avoid waiting. While most staff were pleasant, some were unhelpful. A front desk employee named Reina (white shirt) notably became uncooperative and unhelpful after we declined her offer to attend a 'Star Member' conference."

The resort was lovely and beautiful! The food is Great (I only ate at the buffet). Beach was great. You have to get out there 8am to get a good sit, by 10am they are mostly all taken. There was seaweed on the beach and in the ocean, but it was not bad. It was just that time of year. Ones that work at the resort are friendly. After you get past the front registration lobby area, 85-90 percent of the staff speak 5-10 percent English. Just know the basics bc you are visiting a Spanish-speaking country. Don’t assume that people/everyone speak English. Learn the language, just the basics or use your translation app. I even thought about coming back but after water seeping through the walls in my room, near the bathroom. I asked the front desk woman that wore glasses (she was very nonchalant/noncompliant) for help with this issue. I reported it the following day (after I asked for help one time) and I wasn’t even offered another room, even though I didn’t ask (bc I thought someone was coming to fix it) ,I should have been offered another room and I had to spend the rest of my vacation with the walls leaking and the water on the floor. She assume the water was coming from my shower and it was not. I took pictures bc I slipped and almost fell. I hope they will listen to the next guest bc someone can/will hurt themselves.

The property was nice, some things needed attention like the bathrooms/shower our bathroom had a tub and it was dangerously getting in and out and the tub looked dirty all the time. I had booked transport services from the airport to the resort and back through Expedia. Unfortunately Expedia let us down on the return to the airport and we had to be out more money and book another company. Expedia knew our departure time and what time we were supposed to be at the airport and they were unable to provide the service that has been booked. That was very disappointing.
