This is not a five star resort, but a five star value. We have stayed at Iberostar properties more than 10 times and they never disappoint. Very good food,.good drinks, great service, friendly atmosphere and at this property an amazing landscape. Plus the best beach anywhere. We will return. One caveat. BD Experience, our shutt service from the airport to the resort had no record of our reservation. Staff claimed this was a recurring issue with Expedia. We waited 45 minutes for them to sort this. Not tragic, but a nuisance.

This is my favorite resort ! I have been here twice already and definitely will be back again . I enjoyed beautiful sandy beach , the ocean , wonderful walking area with beautiful plants and trees ; as well interesting animals that live peacefully on the property. We also enjoyed many food options every day in the buffet . My favorite were different pastries every day ! Iberostar is the best !

Beautiful location, you get a mix of jungle and beach. The beach is amazing and great for swimming - the jungle provided tons of different animals to look at. The food is decent at the restaurants and “ok” at the buffet. 5 of the 14 of us got very ill. I don’t necessarily blame the resort because this sort of thing can be expected with buffets and I heard lots of people coughing at the buffet. Norovirus cases are extremely high right now, so that could be the case. Our friends did also get sick at this resort last year. The rooms are dated, but clean. I don’t know if we would return just based off the amount of illness everyone endured.

The property and beach is lovely. It would not be a place I could stay when it is very hot outside due to the open-air buffet areas. The food was fresh and clean. As a vegetarian, I found that the offerings were not marked well enough for me to be sure I could eat a specific dish. There is a lot of cross contamination possible and happens due to the self-serve nature of a buffet. My suggestion would be to have a specific area where vegetarian items are offered. That would prevent the cross-contamination and make it easier for a strict vegetarian to understand what they can eat.

Rooms are clean but need major updates and arnt that big in size. The property is beautiful minus the rooms. It feels like your in a peaceful jungle with tons of waterfalls. The staff was amazing and super friendly. Another bumper is that there is no room service and no service in or around pool area. You have to walk to the bar or food stand if want anything. The pool with a swim up bar is for adults only. Food was just ok not alot of variety.

The resort and the service was very good. The animals in a natural environment were a pleasure to watch. Always somewhere to sit around the pool. The only downside was the loud music from the resort itself and the neighbouring resort until 11:00 pm most nights was a turnoff!

We made our reservations through Expedia and paid in advance. When we got to the Iberostar Waves Tucan, they said we were in the worst location in the resort, but could “upgrade” to a better location (just happens to be the location we’ve been at in three previous stays at Iberostars in Mexico, including this one). We believe we were charged $240 more for the same two rooms we had already paid for. We are supposed to believe that they just happened to have two rooms next to each other for the entire week of U.S. Thanksgiving when the resort was very, very full. Looks very dishonest to us. We won’t stay there again. It's a nice property, but we can't take dishonesty. Too many other options.

This hotel was nice. The staff was very helpful. However, the rooms are very outdated. Bed is very uncomfortable everything looks old .. concrete stucco walls. I have stayed at other Iberostar’s in the Cancun area and this one was my least favorite. Try Grand Pariso .

Beautiful resort is well maintained by friendly and helpful staff. Food options are very broad and food is mostly quite good. Beds are full size and quite firm. I understand there will be some renovation soon and hope the beds will be upsized to queen. Wonderful beach and pool areas. Nice global assortment of guests. Plenty of day and evening activities.
