Iberostar Waves Costa Dorada: great resort

The grounds were well kept, the food was amazing with lots of variety. The staff was very friendly. We had a issue in our room first thing but was fixed within 15 min...We do wish there was some music playing on the beach. We didn't get too much time at the pool as towels were always put on chairs before 7 am, but we preferred the beach anyways ..The resort was very nice and would go again..

Iberostar Origin Laguna Azul: Wonderful time

We enjoyed a wonderful vacation at Iberostar Laguna Azul. The food was delicious. The pools and grounds were clean the beach was fantastic The staff were helpful and pleasant. The rooms were tired and I feel need a little upgrading and maintenance for sure but they were clean. The price was a deal. My first time to Cuba and I will definitely be going back.

Iberostar Selection Paraiso Lindo: Absolutely Gorgeous

This resort was one of the nicest places that my wife and I have been to. The grounds were impeccable. The service and the people delivering the service were a 10 out of 10. We have travelled all over the world, and finally found a place that we will be returning to at least once a year. The food was great and just as it should be for a place of this caliber. The weather was just what we had ordered, sun and blue skies every day. WE WILL BE BACK.

Hotel Mojito: Amazon resort

One of the most beautiful beach in the world, well kept grounds, Food is fair, staff is very helpfully and happy to be there. The night shows are exceptionally talented.I also enjoyed the kids show, this lady realy does a tremendous job with kids!

Iberostar Waves Costa Dorada: amazing resort

Everything is in walking distance. Staff very nice and helping. Live singer each night, and disco until 2 AM. Was there from 18 to 25 Feb 2019. would go back anytime!! Clean room, and well maintained. food awesome. Missing a bit of entertaining during the day, not always the same time each day.

Iberostar Selection Ensenachos: 2nd Time.....No Regrets

This resort is all on its own with 2 huge beaches....you're not tripping over other people walking on the beach. Megano beach is quite something when low tide....A whole other beach appears and has to be walked to appreciate the beauty of it. Lobby entertainment was a bit boring....very little while we were there. The piano was not used once in the lobby bar. We didn't take part in any of the shows in the auditorium. Food was plentiful....we are not fussy eaters.....the Cubans have been [... read more] hit with disasters so they try hard to please spoiled first world people which is not easy! You cannot match the genuine friendliness of the Cuban people to other countries! Rooms are clean and we had very good sleeps. I wouldn't hesitate to book another holiday there.

Iberostar Origin Daiquiri: Great resort with fun staff!

Nice beach, clean pool, friendly staff, good food, lots of activities available! Lots of excursions available as well. A la carte restaurants are not as good as buffet meals. Room did not have hot water and staff couldn't fix it during our stay. Public washrooms smelled badly. It was sunny and warm every day, but it's windy all the time. Difficult for snorkelling or activities on the beach (volleyball, frisbee, etc.). A kiteboarding school is a 2 min walk down the beach. Most areas in the wate [... read more]r the bottom was covered in seaweed. Would definitely stay again if returning to Cuba!

Iberostar Waves Costa Dorada: Became very ill at this resort

We had a horrible vacation. Both my girlfriend and I became very ill due to bacteria consumed in the food or the water at your resort. This caused us to spend half of our vacation very ill and we spent several days in the hospital at Peurto Plata and the illness affected my kidneys, causing inflammation and a great deal of pain. We continued to remain sick when we finally returned home causing me to spend more time in the hospital here, and miss work. I can’t begin to explain how disappointed  [... read more]we both are. We got a few days out of an 8 day vacation. What a giant waste of money and time, not to mention the horrible feeling of being so sick for several days. We will never return to the Dominican Republic because of this. I think Iberostar should take some responsibility here and provide us with some sort of compensation here for our wasted time and money and our horrible experience at this resort hotel. Give it a go if you maybe feel like spending half your trip in a foreign hospital, maybe you're into that but I am not. You should not be dying to just make it home from a vacation. We paid a lot of money and took time off work to get a stress release and to relax. What we got was quite the opposite. Very, very disappointed and this leaves us with a bad taste in our mouths for Iberostar and the Dominican Republic. All of this aside, speaking strictly to the service received; the caliber of service was not as high as I expected when compared to what I have received at other resorts in other countries like Mexico, and for how much money we paid. Making dinner reservations at the a la carte restaurants was a gong show. We were told to use the Iberostar app by front desk staff, so we did. Then just about every dinner the restaurant would not have our reservation and we had to argue with difficult restaurant staff who would begrudgingly accommodate you after finding their manager. This is not something I feel like I should have to do at a paid resort vacation.

Iberostar Waves Costa Dorada: Great food

The resort was pretty much as we expected based on the reviews. The food was the best part, and the rooms were also very clean, although dated. The staff was all friendly and the resort did not seem overly crowded. Beach was not the best, but we knew that. Overall, a very good value.

Iberostar Selection Varadero: Overall Fantastic!

The highlights were the beach and water that stayed shallow quite far, as well as the catamaran trip to snorkeling right off the beach. The grounds were very well kept, although not quite as fancy as 5 stars elsewhere, which goes for the lobby area as well. Our room in building 17 was probably one of the best, with an ocean view. Nighttime entertainment was excellent. Some so-so aspects were the food, which was great for variety, but lacking in flavour. The exception was the Cuba Day lunch  [... read more]buffet which served authentic Cuban food and was absolutely delicious. Anything beef was not a forte, but chicken dishes were excellent. Needing improvement, in our view, was the service at buffet restaurants and lobby and nighttime bars. Service was slow, and there did not seem to be very many servers working given the number of people to be served. Another area needing improvement is the courtesy room one can use once checked out. An exhaust fan in the room is badly needed because it quickly turns into a steamy sauna if you shower in it. The airport at departure was a crowded chaotic disorganized mess, but nothing can be done about that! The transat rep who was present did not seem to know any more than us about which lines to wait in etc...

Iberostar Selection Playa Mita: Very chill resort

The lobby, grounds, facilities and room were all wonderful! The buffet had a full selection to satisfy the fussiest of eaters and the ala carte restaurants were a welcome treat. If there was any complaint it would be that it was almost impossible to book an ala carte before 8:30pm.

Iberostar Origin Tainos: Nice resort

Iberostar Tainos is a small resort. It is is a bit tired, but clean. Staff was very nice and spoke English very well. It had a nice pool area, but I didn’t try the pool. The best part of this resort is the beach, beautiful and wide white sandy beach with crystal clear, shallow, warm water. It was always easy to find chairs and there was lots of shade umbrellas. Food was average, kind of bland, but there was always something to eat.

Iberostar Origin Daiquiri: Ok Resort

Beach and Pools were amazing. Bartenders and wait staff were great and very friendly. Lobby area was large and relaxing. Evening shows were amazing each night. Exceptional souvenir shops/carts. Rooms were fair to poor: stained sheets, terribly smelly throw pillows. Water and towels poorly restocked each day. After asking for refills we were told they would be delivered to our room - often were not. AC worked great. 'Public' washrooms were a disaster all the time. Would recommend to those lookin [... read more]g for a cheap get away - mostly because the beach was absolutely gorgeous and staff was friendly.

Iberostar Origin Playa Alameda: Mediocre Experience

Single beds only available in all of the resort apparently, ice cream parlour was never opened, drinks weren’t the best. Staff would serve others regardless of the order you lined up in if you tipped well enough. Ocean and beach were beautiful. The transfer bus drivers were very unhelpful.

Iberostar Origin Daiquiri: Great Resort

I like the resort, it was small. The beach was very nice, rooms were clean, staff was very friendly and very helpful. Always found something I liked to eat. I would go back. You will need a converter at this resort.

Iberostar Origin Daiquiri: Beautiful Beach

Beach was beautiful, staff we very friendly and service was great. Food was ok, I always found something I liked to eat. Breakfast for me was made to order omelettes and there was a pasta bar and pizza bar for supper, again it was made to order. It is an older resort and there are some needed repairs. For the price of the trip it was worth it!

Hotel Mojito: Enjoyed it!

We were there in February for Valentines Day. The grounds are well kept and friendly staff. The food was good. We had a chance to experience their Cuban Day where they serve lunch close to the pool. There was music and dancing and the food was amazing. The rooms were clean and again the staff was great. The entertainment is where improvement is needed. In the past we had a variety of singers on different nights but this year we had the same ones . They are ok but more variety would be appre [... read more]ciated. The beach is amazing with lots of places for shade if needed. Chairs were always available. Overall we had a great time and we will be returning for sure.

Iberostar Origin Laguna Azul: Amazing Resort

The beach is awesome and is just a short walk a bar in the beach the pool is very nice as well. Food is good a few places where you can get food in the resort 24 hours did not use the spa or the fitness room to comment about it. Overall a had a wonderful time

Iberostar Selection Ensenachos: Wonderful resort!

The grounds are beautifully kept as always. The rooms and common areas are very clean. Services personnel were very pleasant and hard working as usual. The food was tastier then previous years with better selections. The beaches are lovely and the pools are clean and well kept. This was our ninth trip to the Iberostar Ensenachos and we will definitely be back!

Iberostar Selection Ensenachos: Needs improvement

The rooms, the pool areas, the lobby, the beaches, were all beautiful . Except for all the public washrooms which need upgrading and repair. The issues were with not enough staff, not well trained staff, staff that did not focus enough on the client of the hotel. The food needs some improvement, the entertainment in public areas was non-existent. There were Iberostar public relations staff on sight interviewing people and we all completed questionnaires given us by the Pr staff. They w [... read more]ant to improve and were working on have issues resolved. Restaurant staff were great and attentive. Need staff at pool areas to take orders for bar service, need more golf cart shuttles available . Need entertainment or at least music at pool areas. Things were improving as we were ending our stay. Would not recommend currently.
