Iberostar Playa Mita (Riviera Nayarit)

Stayed at the Iberostar in Sept.2018. Grounds: excellent Service: excellent Food: buffet was great A la carte restaurants: Japanese was so so, French was great, Mexican was so so, did not try the steakhouse. Room: clean, spacious, good storage, good view of the ocean in the prestige section.

Beyond expectations and more

Beyond expectations and more The resort grounds were in immaculate condition. The rooms were clean and furnished with modern furnishings. All staff at the resort were extremely friendly and helpful. Food and alcoholic beverages lived up to high expectations

Very enjoyable ResortThe

The resort was very clean. The grounds were kept very tidy, all bathrooms were very nice and clean. The rooms were nice and spacious. A big resort. The nightly shows were okay but basically the same every night.

Unforgettable family vacation

We had an awesome time at our recent stay at Iberostar Playa Mita. It was recommended to us by friends with kids and they were right! We brought our 3 year old and 5 month old and they had a blast! Friendly staff, immaculately clean, good food and drink, fun entertainment and beautiful beach/view. We will definitely come again and will bring more friends and family.

Amazing resort

The rooms are big enough and clean. The Staff are nice. The are many pools, for kids and adults. It’s little bit far from Puerto Vallarta( around 40min). You can play golf. It’s very secure resort. We had a good time.

Great getaway

This resort had a lot to offer to all types of visitors. I joined my daughter, son-in-law and two grandsons, ages 10 and 7, who were on their school break, and we all enjoyed our stay. The staff, amenities, programmes, food, drinks, and of course, the beautiful Pacific, made for a wonderful time for all of us.

Beautiful resort but both kids were extremely sick from something they ate/drank

The property was beautiful. The rooms were clean and well maintained. Bathrooms were small and bathroom fans - while present - did not work. Pools and beach were clean. No issues finding chairs. 6 out of our party of 8 were violently ill (throwing up for 12-15 hours straight) during our 7 day stay. We travel frequently so nothing but bottled water was consumed - even teeth were brushed using bottled water. The sickness came from the food/drink served on site.

Fantastic Resort!

The friendliness and cleanliness was above par. The food was outstanding and options were many. The drive to the resort was about an hour from the airport but well worth it for that location. The beach was primarily Iberostars and was kept very clean. There was evening entertainment if you were looking for something to do or you could listen to a band at one of the lounge bars. There was a beautiful scent pumped across the foyer of the resort that was tropical and appealing to all.

A relaxing resort

We just spent 2 weeks at this resort, and found it quiet and relaxing. Despite the fact it is family friendly, the resort is amazingly quiet due to the child activity centre location and services for those with young families. The food was amazing. Chef Aldo was the customer service king. At every meal when he was working he took the time to come out and visit almost every table to check on the satisfaction of the guests, and made every effort to accommodate special requests. New chef Jose, was  [... read more]following by Aldo's example even though he was not as fluent in English, great effort. The poo, waitress Claudia was unbelievable with her beautiful smile and great memory of what we drinking. Marco Polo and Marcelo from the entertainment staff, made the games fun, and they were both very engaging. We never ran into one staff member that was rude, sullen or offered poor service right from the cleaning staff to the front desk people. The number of pool and beach recliners made it totally unnecessary to do the early morning grab and save. The guys on the beach were great in moving the recliners where you wanted them and putting the umbrella well into the sand. The beach is great for walking, but not so great for swimming due to the waves that come in with differing velocity, great for board surfing though. The resort was absolutely spotless, and every day we had fresh flowers on our beds, and we admired the beautiful arrangements that decorated the resort. We would recommend this resort to anyone who wanted a relaxing vacation, but you need to realize that to go anywhere involves a taxi.

Looks just like the pictures!

The Resort was pristine, the staff helpful and the atmosphere relaxing. This was our first time here and stayed for one week. We stayed in an oceanfront room, and relished waking up to the view and sounds of the waves each morning. We ordered room service a couple of times because we couldn't believe it was included in the cost - and was delicious! The buffet was pretty decent, and we really liked the steakhouse restaurant - drinks were the best there! We took advantage of the spa faciliti [... read more]es (guests have free access to the spa facilities for 1 hour each day) and it was wonderful, especially the delightful pool. We also were regulars at the coffee shop for our morning caffeine jolts, and took turns with various specialty coffees and teas. We spent one day in the star club rooftop complete with massages, hot tub and drinks - a beautiful vantage point for sunset watching :) Overall this place was fantastic and we are planning to return next year!

Great Resort

This was a great resort with lots of fun activities. The activity staff around the pool were so much fun. The pool was very nice. Lounge chairs were situated in between a flowering bush hedge. Beautiful. The room was nice but the bathroom was small. All staff were excellent. We had a ocean front room which we really enjoyed. All rooms were very nice as my family each had the other two room categories. The negative to this resort in my opinion and my husbands, was the food was only average.

Great resort!

Food, beach, pool area, entertainment and bars were fabulous. French restaurant has the best food while the steak house provided very simple steaks. Staff weee very courteous and very friendly. Overall, I would highly recommend this resort

Great Resort

This was a good resort for all. There were children here and a good play area for them with activities. There were also babies present. There were mainly adults. The food was good in the buffet breakfast lunch and dinner. there are 4 stand alone restaurants. We ate at 2 of them. The French was not really very good as the beef tenderloin was not tender...in fact tough. The BBQ was great we had the rib eye and it was large and more tender that the tenderloin. We also had the ribs on our second vi [... read more]sit and they were plentiful and delicious. There is a lot of walking to this resort so if you have some mobility issues you can ask I suppose for a room closer to the lobby where most of the action takes place. The walk to the pool was not far from our room so that was OK. There is no reserving of places at the pool before 9.00am ...they take away anything put there. There really was no need as the resort was only 50% full. We did notice that the waiters in the buffet seemed sparse ..service was sometimes tardy in getting that second cup of coffee in the morning. You can get your own juice if you cannot wait and most people did that . The room we had was overlooking the beach and was larger than most with a sitting are that we did not really use at all. Desk and 2 chairs to check emails at ...the WIFI was good. The balcony was nice to sit out on and enjoy the sunset and watch the waves, people on the beach and occasional whale...out far but there.

Excellent resort

Everything was spotless, workers were always helpful from staff in buffet, bars, to the beach staff and sundeck staff. Entertainment was really enjoyable. Spa was easily accessible. Zumba and yoga classes good, just wish I'd gotten out biking.

Another Great Iberostar!

Just returned from a week in Playa Mita. The Iberostar is simply wonderful. Beautiful grounds, nice beach, great service, excellent food, fun entertainment, modern and comfortable rooms. Very nice resort for chilling out and relaxing.

The best resort we stayed at

Very well maintained and clean resort. Staff is very friendly and service oriented. Food had great selection and was excellent. Many fun activities to choose from on the grounds - surrounded by a really good golf course where we could go for a walk/run every day. We brought 2 couples with us and they loved it too - we will return for sure.

Amazing resort!

This resort was so wonderful and so well kept. Everyone was so happy and pleasant. Food was incredible for an all inclusive and never a shortage of anything. Our room was really great, nice sized and beds are sooo comfy which is not the norm in Mexico.

Nice resort

We stayed at Iberostar Play Mita for 10 days in December. The resort was all decorated for Christmas which was nice because you kind of forget it is that time of year when you are enjoying the sun and sand. We found the resort to be very easy to get around it is not a big resort at all. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Rooms were clean and nice. I would rate this resort as a 4 star. This resort is great for families and the kids that were in the day camp certainly seemed to enjoy themse [... read more]lves.

Beautiful resort

Nice location. Staff from check in to check out go out of their way to make your stay enjoyable. Lots of selection for dining and always lots to eat and drink. The ocean is sometimes very rough but the waves are awesome.

Iberostar

We travel 2 times a year to hot destinations. This hotel I would rate as a 4 star. Considering what we paid I could not justify the cost for what we got. We have been to so many Mexican resorts and sadly this one I would not visit again. We had a great time however the cost on this one, I truly was expecting more.
