Beautiful property, well kept. We could not make key room cards work. We’d have to walk to the reception several times a day to remagnatize them. I even changed the room because it was too much and it was the same problem.
Lots of food but lots of it wasn’t good. If you’re a picky eater you may not like it but if food is down your priority list, then you’ll be fine, no way you’ll be hungry.
Beautiful beach. I would recommend if you’re not expecting anything hosh-posh.

The place was beautiful but small. The activities were plentiful and the staff super enthusiastic - they would even see you later in the day and come chat with you. The food was not the 5 star food that I expected. The snack bar food was just eh and not often replenished. The buffets lacked cleanliness - people stuck their hand in to take things, used spoons from other dishes, etc.

Staff was not as friendly as at other Iberostars. Good was not good quality or big variety. There was no way to access food during certain times of the day, especially after 10pm.

This is advertised as a 5 star resort and it definitely does not meet 5 start standards. The food is mediocre, some of the staff are plain rude, not nearly as much "poolside fun" as other resorts we have visited. The coffee maker never worked in our room, and we requested a new one on the app and in person, but never got one. There were many times we could not get into restaurants and you could not make reservations in advance. The gym was nice and we didn't get to try out the spa because no reservations were available. They want you to use the app, but it does not work well.

Was ill twice in a 7 night stay, both with different symptoms and illness not sure what the reasoning was.. Food that needed to be hot was cold and food that needed to cold was hot. Seemed to get poorer service after not agreeing to purchase travel packages.

Everything was clean and well maintained. Only issue would be their app and restaurant reservations. All restaurants are consistently 3/4 empty but you still can’t make reservations yourself. Only the concierge seem to be able to make reservations.

Very confusing on the property lay out. The app often doesn't load and the layout maps do not work. Food is amazing if you love buffets and the sit down service is hard to get reservations for. The language barrier is of course expected however those in guest services and front deak operations should be better prepared to be bi lingual. The check in process was 45 mins once arriving at the counter. Our room was not available and we were offered a different option. The air-conditioning did not work from the first day and initially complaining i was told the whole building was out. Multiple trips to request service went unanswered. The day before leaving the front desk person said the answer i was givin was not correct and he would send someone. Needless to say that didnt happen and it remained broken and we had to leave the door open and the patio door open to get any cooling from the breeze. The entertainment was sub par and the only thing that made it entertaining was the included liquor. Spring breakers obviously just 18 and there drinking, pool volleyball was better entertainment. The weather was amazing and it made thr trip worth it over all. I was attempting for days before leaving to get details on thr resort for activities, menus, layout and found very little except the web sites trying to book you for a stay. Just expected more
