This resort was amazing..From the minute we entered the resort it kept getting better and better. Check in was fast, my ocean view room was like a dream, the food was so tasty we are more than we should lol, we both came back 3lbs heavier. The ocean was a beautiful colour and the sand was like powder. The staff acomedated us with all are needs. It's was my bday on Oct 1 and my boyfriend got lots of help making it a perfect day with champagne, flowers and a birthday cake. The games during the day[... read more] and the night shows kept us entertained all week. We will defenetly book with Ibrostar again. And thank you so much to Julia Tollis for recommending it.

Iberostar Selection Paraiso Maya Suites: We LOVE Iberostar Paraiso Maya !!!
My wife and I have just returned from our 42nd trip to this Resort. We used to travel around trying different places but this one has everything we truly enjoy. First of all, it is not too far from the airport and cool, comfortable minivans are used as shuttles instead of large, smelly buses. I'm sure nobody enjoys riding a bus immediately after a 4 hour flight.
*For your peace of mind, the Resort is secure and gated and security personnel regularly patrol the entire compound morning, noon and [... read more]night.
Our arrival and check-in always goes smoothly. The bellboys take the bags from the minivan and place them under watchful eyes while guests proceed to the front desk. As there are never more than 2 or 3 couples checking-in, the process happens quickly without waiting or lineups. New identification wristbands are made from a very comfortable cloth instead of that old-style sticky plastic. Once a room number is assigned (the rooms are always ready), that number is given to the bellboys and you are taken by them in golf carts to your room.
The property is "manicured" daily by an army of groundskeepers. In other words, the Resort is clean and beautiful. No matter how many times we visit, we always notice something new and interesting. If you ever grow tired of sitting on the beach or at the pool, you will be fascinated by a walk around the grounds.
Of course the rooms are also cool, clean and very comfortable. However, if you do find something that is not to your liking, for example a wobbly toilet seat, just let your Concierge know and the concern will be addressed and/or fixed right away. Each building has it's own Concierge who will be happy to help you with ANYTHING at all.
This brings us to the Resort staff. From the management to the janitors, to say they are pleasant, polite and extremely concerned with your every comfort would be an understatement. Take some time to meet them. What an incredible group of people! Would you like dinner reservations at a particular restaurant? Done! Did you forget something at home? Let them surprise you with a new one by delivering it, free of charge, to your room. Would you like to learn some Spanish? Ask anyone! Is there a particular brand of alcohol which you prefer but is not stocked on the premises? Don’t be shocked if they send somebody to the liquor store for you! These people are unbelievable! They do everything they can to EXCEED your expectations.
One thing which we most enjoy is meeting and getting to know the employees. One thing we least enjoy is finding out, upon a return trip, that one of our many friends is not there anymore because they have moved on to new employment. It is sad but there are always new people to meet. Believe me, the Resort would not be the same without these GREAT people.
The food is fantastic. In fact, the food in the buffets is so good and daily so diverse, that there really is no need for the specialty restaurants located around the Resort.
Iberostar Paraiso Maya has it’s own golf course. A beautiful layout which is also maintained to perfection. In fact, Big Break Mexico was filmed there a few years ago and I was thrilled to watch the World Team Golf Championships which were held there. Green fees for guests are just $59 and that includes the cart. One really nice feature is that the “all-inclusive†aspect of the Hotel extends to the on-course beverage cart!
*My only words of caution will be advise you all to avoid spring break. Anywhere! Teenagers are (and YES, I used to be one) insane, loud and inconsiderate.
Finally, and also for your peace of mind, please be confident that the water served in restaurants and buffets IS bottled and clean. Drink all you want without fear of Montezuma’s Revenge. Just don’t do anything stupid, like trying to impress your friends by power-drinking in the hot sun, and I promise you will have a fabulous vacation.

JOIA Rose Hall by Iberostar: Best Adults Only Resort
We just came back from the Ibersostar Grand last week, we went for our anniversary and can safely say this is the best adults only resort we have ever been to (we have travelled extensively to the Caribbean and Central America).
I know our stay was going to be excellent when Felicia at the front desk upgraded us to an ocean view room upon request, thank you so much again. The room was big and spacious with and enclosed bathroom area and separate sitting area, a large balcony with seats and a s[... read more]wing. The room also came with butler service which we never experienced before, Romaine and Ronaldo made sure we were well looked after.
Everyone on staff was always smiling and offering to help with any request we had any where on the resort we were. Thanks to Jodian for the cold drinks at the pool.
This was totally a top notch resort, the buffet was the best selection we have ever seen and the a la carte restaurants was superb, top shelf liquor at all the bars, again best selection I have ever seen, Henessey, Grey Goose, high end brandy, you name it and it's there. They even provide free shuttles to duty free shopping in Rose Hall.
The grounds was clean and well manicured, every day you could see the staff taking care of even the minor details. There was activities and sports every day around the pool beach area as well as live music and nightly entertainment.
This is really a high end resort, I would say a bit higher that a 5 star, any one looking for a high end vacation, this is the place. We stayed Sept. 21st to 28th in room 6408.
Thanks

Iberostar Selection Paraiso Maya Suites: Worth every penny!! Highly recommend!!
Beautiful resort!! Once you enter the resort, it's clean, smells good, inviting and the staff is friendly and helpful!! Love the lemonade cucumber water they greet you with at the check-in desk!! Even my husband liked it!! We appreciated the golf carts servicing to rooms, throughout the grounds and other resorts!! Our elevators was not working but managed even if we were on the 3rd floor. I know they would have accommodated us, if we couldn't manage!! They are there to help the best they can, as[... read more] they care!! We have no complaints on our room!! It was nice and served its purpose!! Food was great and the à la carte dining was amazing!! The beach is WOW!! Loved it!! It's the nicest and clearest of all the resorts you're able to visit during your stay!! The pools are great, well maintained.. My only concern was the actual guests not respecting and keeping clean.. but staff worked really hard to keep up and always kept it clean!! I wish people would be more considerate while enjoying the beauty and service offered even on vacation!! SO much to do and see but lots of walking between resorts which wasn't bad.. It kept us in shape with all the food and drinks intake :D !! The kids club was absolutely incredible!! Top notch staff and program was awesome!! My oldest loved it and highly recommend!! My youngest didn't get the chance to enjoy but always had a place.. He was accepted and he got to be on stage during some of the performance with the kids club kids!! My children were loved and treated like gold and so were we!! I We liked the entertainment offered for adults after the kids show. The staff at this resort, works hard and long hours!! Well worth tipping to help them out.. Keep in mind, tips are shared among the staff servicing the area you're at (so tip a little more, if you're able too)!! Never forget to say thank you and show your appreciation!! We never got bothered at the beach to buy things.. Only when you're going towards the Lindo.. The market on the crossing (I think 2x a week) and rare occasions would want you to buy something. If you don't want anything, just say no thank you!! Johny (I hope I'm not spelling his name wrong), the main pool bartender is the best!! He is so knowledgeable, kind and respectful! He cares, works hard and treats you very well!! For our first experience, we have been blessed with good weather, a great resort and great people to remember!! I give the staff and everything about this experience/resorts an A+ in my books!! It gave us more than just a special vacation to remember by!! We were sad to go!! Thank you for the much-needed family time.

Iberostar Waves Quetzal: Great Resort
No complaints, really.
Property, rooms, grounds, staff at all levels & food are great.
However, 2 points:
A. Food was a bit salty--keeping in mind that salt can always be added by the person eating.
B. 9 PM shows: The first 30 to 45 minutes were always in Spanish--extremely boring for someone who doesn't speak the language.

Iberostar Selection Varadero: My expectations were exceeded
Room 1721-Great junior suite, spacious and well kept. The housekeeper was excellent and made animals and birds daily. Overall the staff was friendly and very helpful. Our stay was curt short by Irma but we will be back for sure because everyday was wonderful. We went to Havana and saw the fantastic Tropicana show and shopped at both the hotel and Varadero.This is truly a 5 star hotel.

Iberostar Origin Daiquiri: Worst vacation
I stayed during the week of August 22 to September 2. My possessions were stolen by by a Cuban 85031016342.
You need to be very careful these days. They are poor and have no principles or integrity.
Other than that the hotel was great.

Iberostar Selection Ensenachos: Family section
The hotel was clean. The food was good, and the pool was great. The staff were friendly and helpful. I would return to this hotel for sure. We stayed in the family section of the resort and the children's pool was really cool. My son had a blast there.
The only real complaint I have about this resort is the restaurant at the pool. Service was very slow.
The waitresses and waiters we had in the buffet were really great. We sat in their section all the time.
We had a great time here.
