Iberostar Waves Costa Dorada: Iberostar Costa Dorada Hotel Dominican Republic

Food was good lots of choices to choose from, Hotel was clean and nice view. Lots of entertainment and sports which I enjoyed for example tennis and volleyball and variety of drinks at the bars. Evening shows were nice especially Dominican shows and live music near the theatre.

Iberostar Origin Bella Vista Varadero: Nice Resort

The resort was beautiful, the rooms were kept clean, but I found the rooms damp. I must say for Cuba the food was good, very tasty not bland. The beach is beautiful, the only problem I had with the beach is the size, it’s not big enough for the capacity of people this resort accommodates. Overall we had a good stay at the Iberostar Bella Vista.

Iberostar Origin Daiquiri: Mixture of good and bad ....

I have mixed feelings about this resort. The rooms are pretty decent. Not too fancy but a/c worked great. Although the latches on the patio doors were missing so you couldn't lock those doors at all. ( I was in the rooms near the main lobby) It costs extra to use the room safes. The food was pretty good. Not everything was labelled, so had to guess on a few things. The buffet kitchen is supposed to be air conditioned but they weren't working when I was there. One pet peave I had was the fac [... read more]t the snack bar was only open from noon til 6 pm. All because they use the snack bar as the Italian Al a Carte. Then if you want snacks you have to go to the Mexican Al a Carte from 11 pm to 7 am. The beach is pretty good. But you don't have to go very far in the water to end up in a lot of seaweed. Lots of beach chairs and shadey umbrellas and pergulas. The pool is ok. Not the biggest. Not enough umbrellas around the pool for shade. If you want shade you have to get up at 4 am to save yourself a seat under an umbrella. It would be nice if there was a 2nd row of umbrellas around the pool. The staff was great, really nice, really hard workers. The entertainment was great, but because it was held in the main lobby, there just wasn't enough tables and chairs for everyone. Even though my review shows I wouldn't recommend this hotel, I still believe it's a personal choice. It's an OK place to go but it isn't top notch.

Iberostar Origin Laguna Azul: Very nice resort!

This resort is very big! The beach is beautiful and well maintained. We had to change rooms the first night as our room had no safe and our shower head was not mounted to the wall. We spoke with Kensy at guest services and he was quick to act and get us a nice new room for the following day! Kensy was great and all of the staff were very friendly. The food was typical food for resorts in Cuba so it was just okay. We found that this resort didn't staff the bars properly and only ever [... read more] had one bartender in the lobby bar. Even when there were 20+ people waiting for a drink. The pool bar was better with two bartenders on each side. Overall we enjoyed our stay at this hotel. The staff were excellent and the grounds were well maintained!

Iberostar Waves Quetzal: Good Resort

When we arrived at the hotel our room was not ready yet....this was at 2:30pm. They asked us to come back at 3pm to check in as our room would be ready. We went back to check into our room and it wasn't ready until 3:45. While we were waiting for our room to be ready we booked our 3 a la carte dinners. They said they would squeeze us in as they were booked solid. Upon arriving at each of our a la carte meals the restaurants were 3/4 empty. I don't understand why they made a big deal about bo [... read more]oking these a la cartes when there was lots of room to fit us in. The Mexican and Steakhouse were very disappointing. The Mexican restaurant didn't have many selections and the Steakhouse overcooked the steak. The entertainment was good but way too late for kids. The entertainment started at 9:30pm and ended between 10:30pm and 11pm. It was pouring rain out and all rooms were suppose to have an umbrella in the closet. We did not have one and we requested one from the front desk and never received one. We scheduled a pick up the night before we were to leave with the bell boy for 8:45am the next morning. No one showed to pick us up and nobody answered the phone when we called. We ended up having to walk our luggage to the front. On a positive note the buffets were fantastic. The waiters were very friendly and made sure we had everything we needed. The bartenders were great with our kids who loved ordering different drinks. The entertainment staff was fantastic as well. We enjoyed the shows and events that they put on throughout the day. The resort was very clean. Our room was cleaned daily and the fridge was always refilled. There was lots of wildlife which was a big hit with our kids. The wifi was good as well.

Iberostar Origin Playa Pilar: Okay Resort

People where friendly, Food could be better. Housekeeping great. The mini bar never stocked. ie. No water as well had to consistently ask for more toliet paper. Not a great experience. One great experience was at the beach playa pilar. Amazing. Definitely would not rate this hotel as a 4 star.

Iberostar Origin Daiquiri: Fabulous beach side resort!!

We stayed at Iberostar Daiquiri for 7 days in early April 2019. Our room was clean and comfortable but best of all was the awesome ocean view from our patio, it was stunning! The resort was just the right size for us with everything within a few minutes walk. Pool was clean and clear with 3 sections, one was very active with lots of activities and music with a swim up bar, in the middle was the kids pool and one the other side was the more quieter side for relaxation. The pool had lots of umbre [... read more]llas and very comfortable chairs. The food and restaurants were all very good with lots of options and different food daily. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. I felt very safe on this resort. The gem of this resort though is the beach! It had white clean sand with lots of umbrellas and chairs with a beach bar very close by. I’m hoping to visit this resort in the near future for another great vacation.

Iberostar Origin Laguna Azul: Loved resort ...amazing

We loved this resort...the people were great,food was good, hotel clean only problem with hotel 220 not 110 for sleep apnea machine...would go again...flight was terrible .stewardess nice..seats tight

Iberostar Origin Laguna Azul: GREAT SATISFACTION

This was my second time at the Iberostar Laguna Azul and I must say that they did a really great job in showing that I was a repeat customer. Our room had an amazing view so I thank them very much for that! I was disappointed however that they did not serve fresh mangos nor did they have coconut icecream this time. We also missed the band they get to play outside on the veranda. I would have loved to see the band as the last time I was there I was able to catch a bit of it before we left la [... read more]te that evening.

JOIA Rose Hall by Iberostar: Our favourite resort

We love this hotel. All of the staff are very helpful and courteous. We have now been here five times. We would definitely return. The rooms are kept very clean. The food was excellent. The beach is fantastic.

Iberostar Waves Quetzal: Stupendous Time!

The resort is absolutely beautiful, the beach is amazing. The food was great & the drinks as well. What most impressed me tho was the service; everyone was so fun & kind. Will return for sure & recommend it to friends & family.

Iberostar Waves Rose Hall Beach: Awesome vacation

Me and my husband recently came from a 5* vacation. Iberostar Rose Hall Beach in Jamaica has a 5* services. Room cleaning every single day, everyone is helpful if you get lost (yes, it happened to me), food is awesome and lots and lots of options to choose from. Cajun Jambalaya restaurant has the best salmon I've ever had. I don't recomand paying for photos taken there, it can be quite pricey. The ladies from the beach bar and buffet are like Speedy Gonzales, always taking orders and cleaning ta [... read more]bles very fast. Overall a 5* experience that I'll never forget.

Iberostar Selection Rose Hall Suites: Increable Resort..Amazing Views!!!

Overall a top resort!! The grounds, facilities beaches and rooms were well maintained. The staff were amazing! the L la carts are not so good except the steak house it was really good. The Buffet was perfect breakfast, Lunch and dinner.. some stuff the same but a lot of different things each day. really enjoyed their jerk chicken and taco night. we were treated like royalty. Looking forward to go back with the kids next time!!! One last thing that we dislike was the pool area closed at [... read more] 7pm it was so pretty at night that we would of loves some night swims. also the beach if it had lights would of enjoy a night swim. so that's our only disappointment. oh and beware the young people like to party loud till 4am. we didn't mind it. but some people with young kids might. Thx for a beautiful first trip to Jamaica!!

Iberostar Waves Costa Dorada: Resort

At first glance I thought it was nice landed on a cloudy day but still warm . I thought the shows weren’t very good the beaches were kind of dirty the staff were not very nice . And on top of everything I got salomonia poisoning

Iberostar Selection Ensenachos: Good Resort

We stayed for two weeks and were fairly pleased with the resort overall. The rooms were nice and spacious and clean, the hotel staff were friendly, the beaches were beautiful and the food was pretty good by Cuba standards. Most of the a la cartes were good. The only one we didn't really care for was the Italian one. The Mediterranean and Asian ones were very good. There were only two things that we found disappointing. Firstly, beach chairs were being reserved by placing towels on the chairs  [... read more] by people very early in the day (like at dawn) and then people would only show up hours later to actually use the chairs which made it extremely difficult to find a chair. There were not enough chairs for all of the guests. Secondly, over a two week period we were only able to get a clean beach towel TWICE as laundry services have been moved off site and the towels need to be trucked out and in every day and were scooped up pretty fast. There were not enough beach towels for the amount of guests. Having said all that, I wouldn't hesitate to go again.

Iberostar Waves Rose Hall Beach: Great food and Jamaican hospitality!

Iberostar Beaches Exceeded our expectations of our Group of 6 who travelled there on April 1. My wife I were looking for the sun, sand, relaxation and that special vibe that Jamaica is known for. Cleanliness was evident everywhere , excellent friendly staff that were very pleasant. Rooms - were more than adequate but some things were a little dated. Food - Buffet was very good. lots of variety and a great steak restaurant. Managers are often present to ensure things run smoothly. Lots of chairs [... read more] at pool and beach and lots of shady areas. Vendors are certainly visible but all you have to do is be respectful- say is no thanks - they are approachable, very friendly and just trying to make a buck. We normally vacation in Negril and missed the sunsets over the water, the endless beach walks of long bay and the restaurants and local bars and entertainment in the Negril area. But this is ideal location for your Jamaican holiday If good food, clean everything; friendly staff and close to the airport are your objectives for a good holiday - this place should satisfy your vacation needs. Grilled lobster tails and the longest buffet table I ever saw, complete with lighting and tables and chairs that was all cover with linens was set up for their Friday Beach Party night. Complete with Fire eater- breather- all on the beach. Also had a great snorkelling trip with Dressel - again staff on boat were great. Reef was not in the best shape but lots to look at and the first time I have ever snorkelled where the crew were satisfied to let the 8 of us that day to snorkel as long as we wanted.

Iberostar Selection Ensenachos: Relaxing vacation

The grounds of the hotel are still lovely despite what they went through almost 2 years ago. We were here 3 years ago and We noticed a lot of the trees were gone from around the spa side pool. There is a definite need for palapa, pergolas for people who want shade which is pretty much everyone. It was next to impossible to find shaded areas. There was apparently a problem with laundry and the towels in our room were never changed and we had the same bath towels the whole week. No hand towels [... read more] either they were taken away on our first day and didn’t get any new ones. The food is definitely not the same as it was 3 years ago, that was a bit of a disappointment. Plus they need to be consistent with labelling the food. I have a seafood allergy and I never knew what was in some of the dishes that were offered. Other than those minor issues we still had a great time and we love Cuba! Warning: WATCH FOR FALLING COCONUTS!!!

Iberostar Origin Laguna Azul: Not a family friendly resort

Just got back from this resort. It’s really nice! The resort was lovely, pools and beaches were so nice, cleaning staff were sweet and bartenders were quick and friendly. But this wasn’t a family friendly resort. We went with a 19mth old and there were so many issues we ran into. The food options were limited and there were no labels to show you what you are eating. Lack of high chairs. No straws. Wading pool seemed unattended and we found cigarette butts in it. No water slides. Kids Care se [... read more]emed empty everyday for such a big real estate it took up. Wifi is only in the lobby so couldn’t use iPads in the room. Drain plug in our tub was broken.... it may have been okay if it were just my husband and I. But when you string along a toddler and run into these issues, it gets frustrating and makes our experience a bad one at this resort. This resort needs to make some updates.

Iberostar Waves Paraiso Beach: Amazing experience

We stayed at the Iberostar pariso beach which was on the lower end of the 5 resorts (Del mar being our equal we could use their facilities too) while we were given the option to upgrade once we got there I found we really didn't need to. Since we didn't have kids with us this time I found the pariso beach had a lot less kids on this side and made our trip even better. We only got the option of 3 a la cart reservations we could make but only used 1 because the buffet was amazing at every meal. Th [... read more]ey had a great variety every night and didnt dissapoint. The sushi and mexican cuisine was my favorite and the coffee was so good every morning. A little strong but I loved it. The staff are all so kind and pleasent. The bus boys were the best and are always willing to drive you around in their little carts as the grounds are huge. I found the concierge not very helpful but always wanting to get you to buy extras or go to their 'presentation'. They do offer some compensation in iberostar bucks for going to this presentation for an hour, but I wasn't totally clear on how they can actually be spent so I declined. The grounds are very clean and well kept. The pools are as well. The drinks are either very sweet or salty but once you find one that works for you its easy to just stick with that. I thought cranberry and vodka might be ok but it was full of syrop so I ended up getting pineapple vodka and it tasted pretty good ( no syrop) the rooms were ok , not perfect as we were told we were getting a king sized bed and they just pushed 2 double beds together. Overall this resort was a really great experience and so beautiful I would stay there again.

Iberostar Waves Rose Hall Beach: LOVIN JAMAICA

Great resort, run by staff that work extremely hard from top to bottom.. The food is top notch.( fresh and hot) .Rooms are well equipped for a comfortable stay. Lots of chairs at the beach and pool without playing the chair saving game. Beautiful grounds and very clean' Pool is very well laid out and clean. Fast service at bars but some of the beach bartenders need more training . Everything on this resort I would rate 5 stars except the beach. I am a beach lover and give this beac [... read more]h 3.5 stars. (coarse sand ). I would recommend this resort for couples or family vacations. Fourth trip to Jamaica , twice to Negril, twice to Mo Bay. and nine other trips to vacation islands of the south.
