"It was such a wonderful experience I kept my expectations low coming and it was a wonderful stay . The buffets were amazing staff was helpful and kind . I have absolutely no complaints."

"staff was amazing and very helpful the entire time. Clean property, good variety of food, and entertainment was great! definitely would recommend."

"The resort is beautiful, and staff is AWESOME. Alberto Gonzalez at the Seaside Grill was so attentive and effcient we ate their every dinner! Valdovina (beach staff) was fast and super friendly! I was disappointed to see the lack of tipping from East coast and Canadian guests "shame" on you. Beach was filled w/ sargasso seaweed unfortunately, and we received a few calls from TIME SHARE SHARKS even though we let them know upon arrival we were NOT interested. All TSs are good for is locking you into a specific date and place each year you pay for regardless if you go. Shows need to be revamped we saw same show as 4 years ago. Overall I recommend minus the seaweed and Timeshare sharks. :)"

"We had a good time but won't be back. They claim there are multiple restaurants, but one of them is for platinum members only and the other three restaurants are reservation only, and we're pretty much sold out all week. This pushes you to the buffet for every meal, which in fairness was really good, but nobody pays $500/night to eat at a buffet nightly. They have some cabs that stay on site and jack the prices way up, but you are forced to use them. After a prearranged cab driver changed the price on us, we asked for a different cab driver and they said it wasn't possible. The massive amounts of seaweed makes the beach very unswimmable, which I know isn't their fault, but the price of the resort reflects a "beachfront resort". We are definitely not coming back."

"Everyone was pleasant and friendly. The food and the people are great. The resort is beautiful and well maintained. One of the most relaxing weeks of my life! I will be back!!"

"Absolutely everything was wonderful from the minute we checked in until the moment we checked out! The pool was awesome! The staff was amazing! The food was very good and we never went hungry! The drinks were plentiful! The staff always went above and beyond! The entire grounds were beautiful! If I had to make a complaint, it would be with the Coatis! They are absolutely obnoxious and I wish you could get rid of them, or quarantine them off. You offer food on the beach with picnic tables for people to sit, but most can't sit there because these obnoxious animals will actually jump on the table and steal people's food. It scary and dangerous. I have actually seen them grab food right out of people's hands! I really detest these animals. I think maybe fencing in the food eating area may help. That would actually be my only complaint. Our first trip here was 21 years ago, and we absolutely love the Iberostars. Lots has changed, but we still keep coming back. Thank you for another wonderful vacation!"

"Overall great place, a little too many kids for my liking and was designed around families for sure. Zero to do really after dinners, couple lame “shows” (again kid designed) place is huge (when combining all resorts) One club!!! That’s it!! bars are weird, all set up like an open lunch room setting. No dimmed lights, lounge atmosphere, a place to have a drink and listen to music with the Mrs. And enjoy… staff was 100% awesome, over the top (Except for the lady at the 24hr coffee shop, 7ish am )she was angry about something in life! Went with 2 daughters 18/24 and we felt they were safe and could do their thing with no worry. Clean, mostly convenient, golf cart ride if not, perfect for the family needing a break. Wildlife galore, neat to watch, plenty of walking routes in the early am, room was ok, A/C cold, we got reservations at the better dining, no issues. Hibachi is the hit! If you like a high end drink, it’s not happening, cheap syrups or canned beer it is. Would I recommend? Sure, would I go again? No, it’s just not for me. I like to spend my rare time off at a more upscale resort. Price was right, place is nice, if you have younger kids, sign up! Just not for me…"

"Staff was amazing! Overall cleanliness was good. The pools were amazing. Could have used more trashcan areas, more places to get napkins and this kind of supplies and a few more benches along the path."

"Double charged. "
