Iberostar Selection Paraiso Maya Suites: Awesome Resort

The resort in general is in immaculate condition, from the rooms, the always clean and manicured grounds and surroundings to the very entertaining shows and other resort services. The golf course is championship caliber. But most of all it is the service of the people that works on the frontline that made me fall in love with the place. They make you feel important and like royalty .

Iberostar Origin Laguna Azul: Stunning View

I really enjoyed my time at the resort, the service was outstanding. The restaurants available had a wonderful selection of food however the buffet was lacking. The 24 hour snack bar was very convenient. I would definitely recommend this place for the amazing amenities and service but be careful what you eat.

Iberostar Origin Laguna Azul: Very Nice Resport... However

Staff was very friendly. Drinks were cold. Water was beautiful and beach well maintained. Food was ok. I ended up getting stomach sickness on my 3rd day and did not eat much afterwards. Beds were hard which is not a bad thing but my fridge was super loud and would make a huge noise every 45 min all night long. I would suggest unplugging it during the night. A few friends were eaten alive by sand fleas or no seeums when on the beach. Bug spray would have been a good idea. Nice place a [... read more]nd I would return to give it another shot. Keep in mind they are still dealing with the aftermath of the hurricane that hit the area a few months before so bugs could have been an additional environmental hazard that they were dealing with.

Iberostar Waves Rose Hall Beach: Decent, but would not return

The hotel itself wasn't horrible, however it should have been updated probably 10+ years ago.The rooms are extremely outdated, and there was excessive mold over the entire ceiling on the shower, likely due to the fact that there was zero ventilation within the bathroom or the room itself. The tub also got just over half full while showering before starting to drain, which I found quite gross. Despite this, the room was clean and the housekeeping was great. The staff were great and friendly, howe [... read more]ver the entertainment was nothing spectacular. While the shows at night were okay, there was really nothing done throughout the day to get guests involved. The food however was by far the worst we have ever had. The buffet was never replenished, everything seemed to be a day or two old, never "fresh". We had a decent dinner at the steak house, and great dinner at the Japanese but that was it. By the second day we figured it was just once of those "oh it's just today it will get better" but no, it was all week. Once we finished eating in the airport before heading home, we agreed that was probably the best meal that we had had all week. At the end of the day, we did have a great time but with what we spent on our vacation, we certainly expected more out of the resort. While we had a great time, we will not be returning.

Iberostar Selection Playa Mita: Good place to recharge your batteries

This was our second time at Iberostar playa mita. From the beginning the hotel stuff made us feel special, VIP even! The room was clean, the fridge was stocked daily with plenty of water, pops and beers. The food in the restaurants was well prepared but a bit salty to our taste. However, with plenty of choices we always found something to enjoy. Our special thanks to chef Aldo who personally cooked my steak for our 38th anniversary! At the pool area, never a problem to find lounge chairs [... read more]. It was somewhat disappointing to see dirty ( birds poop) mattresses in the morning. Would be great if the stuff cleaned then early in the morning. Other then that no complaints! We had awesome time and would definitely come back!

Iberostar Waves Rose Hall Beach: Good Resort

This was a fun resort. The grounds were pretty and rooms were nice. The beach resort has an older feel. It was nice that it was smaller with easy access to all areas and directly on the beach. Staff were mostly nice, however some felt a bit pushy and there was a lot of pressure to tip constantly. Not a lot of shopping opportunities for local goods.

Iberostar Waves Rose Hall Beach: Iberostar Beach Jamaica

We enjoyed our stay at the Iberostar Beach in Jamaica. The staff were delightful and the rooms very comfortable and clean. We enjoyed the food at the steak house the best. The buffet was okay but did not have enough variety for us.

Iberostar Waves Rose Hall Beach: Most courteous staff!

The hotel is very nice, immaculate grounds, very clean, great service and the food was so good! Most impressed with the friendly and happy staff everyone was so wonderful except for the guys that loaded the luggage onto the bus they were very rude, I asked one very politely if he could please put my small white carry-on luggage on top because it gets damaged and dirty, he very rudely responded “well you are just going to have to go home and clean it, and next time you come buy black luggage” [... read more] he then proceeded to put my luggage at the bottom and placed 3 of the larger ones on top and smiled! Was truly disappointed with the attitude, there was no need for that!

Iberostar Waves Rose Hall Beach: Amazing resort

This hotel is very friendly clean and the stuff is Awsome I would recommend this hotel can't wait to go back. They are children friendly my daughter said she can't wait till she goes back. I LOVE THIS PLaCE

Iberostar Selection Playa Mita: Beautiful Resort

The resort was stunning and clean and gorgeous! The selection at the buffets was perfect! The weather was perfect. My husband rented a jet ski and went kayaking and on a bicycle tour. Very relaxing.

Iberostar Origin Laguna Azul: It is not good

I have a Cuban girlfriend and they checked us in and was fine. The next day they called the police and they came right in to the hotel and arrested here. She had to stay in a shitty Cuban jail till the next day. Ruined our whole holiday. Normally we stay in Havana but I thought we could try Veradero. What a mistake. I went to customer service about what they did and got to talk to Yuleisy Elfonso and she did not care in the least and the manager would not come and explain. Apart from this fias [... read more]co which ruined the week for both of us the food was awful. Basically I would certainly not advise anyone to go to the Laguna Azul.

Iberostar Waves Rose Hall Beach: Iberostar Rose Hall

We were upgraded to The Suites so this review is on the SUITES and not the BEACH. Top notch hotel and resort with outstanding staff and service. Food quality and selection above average. Pool excellent and beach good. The only thing to be aware of is The Club offering. Please read reviews before you commit to attend a presentation.

Iberostar Selection Paraiso Lindo: Home Away From Home!!!

12th trip to the Iberostar property. I am never disappointed!! It's great to see familiar faces and enjoy all that these properties have to offer. If I had anything negative to say it's that it's very hard not to gain a few pounds with so many wonderful option of places to eat!!

Iberostar Waves Costa Dorada: Good place for vacation

Overall, I liked vacation at Iberostar Costa Dorada. To itemize: - food is great, huge variety, in the buffet every evening there is something new, like sushi, Mexican food, etc. - service is good, especially when you give tips; because of a lot of European vacationers who usually don't give tips, servers usually don't expect them; but if you give $1US or 50DOP the service becomes even better, - room was clean; bedsheets were changed every day; - entertainment was good, there were a lot o [... read more]f daily activities, including shooting and archery; - swimming pool was good, I also liked the whirlpool which is in the middle of it between the columns; - beach was decent; the only thing is it was cleaned of weeds every second day; therefore, some days it's not perfect; at the same time, sand was fine and allowed long walking; - the ocean goes deep quickly and always wavy; it may not be suitable for small kids. There is a golf course near of the hotel. It will cost around $110US to play 9 holes + $15 for taxi. Although it's a Spanish country, almost everybody speaks English well; exception is the taxi drivers who usually don't speak English at all. Overall, it's a good place for vacation. The only bad experience I had this trip was not related to the hotel but to the Air Canada as number of their employees' failures were quite annoying. We came to the airport close to 1hr deadline due to traffic delays on 401; we still could be in time on the flight, but Air Canada employee directed as to the wrong and very long line; then, when there was "Last call to Puerto Plata" we were moved to the separate line, but nobody served as for the next 25 minutes. Then, at check-in, obviously we were late for sending luggage, and the only options was given is whole family should fly without luggage. I wonder why they didn't provide the option that part of the family could still go to the plane without luggage, and part of family take care of suitcases? This would save us cost of 2 tickets (~$800) on the next day flight. I understand that this happened because we came close to deadline. However, I even though we would have come half of an hour earlier, we had directed to the same long line, stayed there for 30 minutes, moved to the separate line with no service, and the result would be the same. Perhaps, coming to the airport for Air Canada flight in 2 hours before the flight is not a recommendation, it's a "must". There is no such problem with other carriers; same check-in procedure next day with WestJet took only 10 minutes without any lines. But it's not the end. On the way back from Puerto Plata it was a shower rain and two flights were expected from/to Toronto, namely Air Canada and Air Transat with less than an hour between them. The Air Canada plane "due to bad weather condition" went to other place and came back later causing 2 hours delay; however, few minutes after the delay announcement the Air Transat plane successfully landed to Puerto Plata and went back to Toronto in time. And that was sort of a last drop for me. It's been my 10th vacation in Caribbean for the last 9 years and the first with Air Canada; perhaps, and it's the last one with Air Canada as well. Anyways, other than that, vacation went well, a lot of food, swimming, great photos and fun. I will definitely recommend this hotel to my friends. :)

Iberostar Waves Costa Dorada: Excellent Visit

Four of us visited the week of Nov. 12th to the 19th. Airport and resort check in went very smoothly as did the welcome cocktail. We arrived at the perfect time around 3pm and headed right to our rooms. Concierge led the way and explained some details about the resort and our room while our luggage was delivered. First impressions of the layout and grounds were wow, very nice, mountain in the back and ocean in the front. We requested two weeks prior for building #1 top floor with king beds in b [... read more]oth rooms, close together and received exactly that. Rooms 1214 and 1215 were well located with decent ocean views. The room was great. Everything worked well and super comfortable pillow top beds. The resort is very well laid out with only a two-three minute walk through lovely grounds to everything. The beach right in front of our building was perfect, always loungers available and a really nice entry into the sandy bottom ocean. To the right there was some rock but nice entries could easily be found. The guys on the beach trying to take you the market were annoying at first but a no thanks and they left us alone. The water was nice and warm and a little wavy, perfect for cooling off. The pool was also refreshing and clean. They repaired a part of the pool while we were there, took three days to complete. No problem because the other two sections remained opened. Always felt not crowed and again plenty of loungers. The food and drinks were of good quality and very good. Our new favorite was Bombay Gin/sprite and lime, also very refreshing. The buffet was great with a nice variety. Breakfast was amazing every morning with anything you could think of. Themed nights mixed things up nicely like Asian night and Dominican night featuring shrimp and lobster. We tried all three restaurants and enjoyed them all. The Japanese was our least favorite. The main stir fry was good, appetizers and the overall loud show not so good. Service was good everywhere. The shows were okay, but way too loud. The Circle of Life (The Lion King) was very good as well as the show where couples competed in these hilarious various games. The entertainment staff go over and above all day long to entertain the guest especially Justin Beiber who went out of his way to get to know and make us laugh. If you visit you’ll be sure to hear/see him. All in all it was a great week and a very nice/classy resort. The weather was a nice mix of sun/clouds/heat and a tropical storm that went on for hours one evening. Would highly recommend, you won’t be disappointed.

Iberostar Waves Quetzal: A must to discover!

We had a wonderful time at this resort which met all of our expectations. We were there for 7 nights in mid-November. The hotel grounds are very beautiful with paths in luxuriant forest - a sanctuary for several animals from monkeys to flamingos. The hotel and the rooms are well maintained and very clean. The food at the buffet was good with lots of choices. We ate at 4 of the 5 restaurants: We enjoyed the Japonese restaurant the most, but we're disappointed by the Mexicain one. There was entert [... read more]ainment for all ages all through the day and the evenings shows were excellent; the theater was always packed. The beach is beautiful and allows for long walks. The hotel is also very well located in a safe area at a 30 minute walk from the 5th avenue and 5 minutes from a strip mall. All the personnel at the resort was very friendly, helpful and always smiling despite their long working hours. I will return to this resort no hesitation.

Iberostar Selection Hacienda Dominicus: Outstanding service, great stay!

We really enjoyed our stay and Air Transat, they took care of us very well. Exceeded all of our expectations and more! Would strongly recommend the hotel, food and restaurants were superb! The week flew by, wished we could have stayed longer.

Iberostar Origin Laguna Azul: Laguna Azul Hotel in Cuba Varadero

Unfortunately very upset lots of deficiencies, patio door didn't lock jammed water stains in the bedroom, bugs crawling, the upkeep of the hotel was very neglected, from the 6 months we had already visited this year in April 2017 seems they are letting the facility run down, probably the storm didn't help requested 3 times on 3 different occasions, always had to fight to get a decent room, Mattresses need major change basically sleeping on a box spring, very hard and sore back, Entertainment w [... read more]as Awesome, food was Awesome, great choices, water was very choppy, lots of poor palm trees cut, I really think the Iberostar is letting this facility run down to the grounds, lots of things from our last visit haven't been fixed, handles missing Poor beds, needs major renovations, tables wabbling, paint missing, sad itws a great place, Awesome location, I really think in April 2017 going to visit another Island instead of Cuba
