Wonderful trip to the Iberostar joia bavaro. Even better than the last time we visited in 2023. We were a group of 14 family and friends here for 10 days and everyone had an amazing time. A few shoutouts to some amazing staff members that made our trip unforgettable. Our butlers Jose and Valentim were superb and on top of their game every day. We never wanted for anything. Augusta at the members beach area was amazing as always. Daliana and Rosa from the prestige lounge made sure the entire trio went smoothly. There are many many other staff members that made our trip memorable and I can’t list everyone here but they were all simply amazing. We had one small snafu during the trip but the Iberostar team made it right and we could not have been happier with our trip! Thank you to all the staff! Hope to see you all again next year!

excellent services, waiters were extra helpful. the hotels were excellent, as was the open buffet everyday. the hotel is only for adults--a fact they don't advertize. but next door resorts allow children and you can go visit (they can't come to this hotel). so grandparents can visit all day and have peace and quiet in the evening.

Our butlers, Houston and Armando, were exceptionally polite and helpful. Beautiful hotel and grounds, good size rooms and everything in good condition and working. We will return for another stay soon. Excellent massages in spa. Food very good also. Top shelf liquors included at the several bars.

Loved every bit of our vacation! Friendly staff and great food. Entertainment every night :) Enjoyed both Jr and Renoldo helping us with anything we wanted! Excellenta!! great ocean view from our fourth floor room and wonderful walks on the beach.

We had an amazing time. We love this resort for many reasons. We loved the service. We are IHG members so we had a basic room with a butler. Junior was amazing. Always on anything needed or wanted. We had a couple of issues and both were addressed immediately. The resort is small which makes everything close. Beach, pool and restaurants were played out and easy to access. My hubs hurt his back and walking is an issue for him. Everything was close. Food and service at all the restaurants is 10/10. I had grilled lobster every evening. We loved the Japanese restaurant to most. The grounds were beautiful and in tip top order every morning. You can get fresh coconuts near the pool. Amazing. I think you can get Chardonnay, Savion blanc and a red with the basic room and maybe a red. You can get sangria and so many different liqueur. We were able to get grey goose vodka which is amazing. We did not do star prestige so I don’t know much about it. Our friends got massages and more than basic wines as well as their own spit on the beach. We had breakfast delivered a few times and room service. Always great! Fruit and coffee every morning delivered. Just book it! Amazing vacation.
