This is an okay property. Ratings would have been different if Expedia mentioned the various categories of stay so as to align expectations. Food was ok, my favourite was the Mexican buffet, like the hibachi Japanese restaurant as well. Least favourite star rock cafe and the steakhouse. Property is safe, workers are friendly and willing to assist. Overall an ok place.

We had a fantastic vacation at this resort. The food was pretty good, with the exception of the Smoke House - that was fantastic! The bed was comfy, the pool was amazing. the beach was pretty rocky but that could have just been where we were sitting. We didn't wander down the beach to see if it got better. Highly recommend! There were so many wild animals living on the property it was a game of 'I Spy' every time we walked around the property.

Pro: Hard working staff. Con: Staff is overworked, especially at pool bars and the Mexican Restaurant. Pro: Family room was nice, great for my family and two teens. Con: Beach is very small, believe the reviews!! They do a great job of managing seaweed but its very small, and reserving seats IS NO JOKE! I had to get up at 7 to get 4 seats. Con: Pool is just as bad, reserve seating is SERIOUS here..I realize I visited in July but the water is warm, almost hot. Felt like a hot tub. Con: If you expect a waiter or waitress to stop by your pool or beach chair and take your drinks, LOOK elsewhere. I have been to other resorts and its a common thing, YOU GET UP AND GO TO THE BAR for your drinks here.. Con: Mexican restaurant was the biggest disappointment. short staffed, waited over an hour to be seated and over 35 minutes to receive food. Other: The buffets were average, nothing special here. The resort is BIG, with them using a major paved "sidewalk" for golf carts to pick up and drop you off. Lots of walking. Again, I am not a picky person and have visited many resorts, this Iberostar was a disappointment, and will not return. Did I mention how overworked the staff is? The women and the bar and restaurants should be applauded.

Check-in took about 20 minutes but that is normal, no complaints there. My biggest complaint was the food and reservation situation. You need an app to reserve (which everyone has everything reserved in advanced) or go early morning and try which by the time you go, everything is reserved. I couldn't eat at any of the places I wanted to eat at, and the walk-in places had long waits. Aside from that, it was a very nice stay.

Our stay was ok and we weren’t very satisfied. There was no poolside service of food or drinks. Pool was not clean. There were so many Coati’s. We first thought it was cute seeing them around but then it became too much. They were running all around, in the garage cans, stealing food and drinks. The staff was average compared to other places we have stayed. We won’t ever return to this hotel. We did spend a day at their other resort, Lindo and that was very nice. If we do return to the area, we will stay at Lindo.

Right when I checked in, I was met by Alejandro, the supervisor at the check-in desk. He informed me that since I booked through Expedia, I would have to pay an extra $560 for a child, since the child rate on Expedia and their website is different. After numerous attempts to explain that through Expeida, a child is from 2-17 years of age and that either way, a child and an adult were the same price, he did not want to check us in. Even went as far as saying that this issue wasn't his problem and that if we don't like it, we don't have to stay in the hotel. Rather than trying to understand the situation and assist, he made us stay in the lobby for THREE hours, which doesn't have AC, and didn't even allow us to get lunch till I had to solve the situation with Expeida, which took another hour on the phone. Let alone, he and the rest of the staff were very hard to understand, and they didn't have a friendly way of interacting with the guests.
