Magical Jungle Narnia with great people!

997saskiam on Feb 02, 2025

The beach is smooth sand, pristine, and great for swimming. The two sides of the resort surround a jungle park with walkways, filled with birds and animals - peacocks, Coatis, agoutis, and howler monkeys. Our rooms overlooked the park, and the monkeys occasionally swung in for a visit on our balcony!! The food at the resort is solid - the best choices are the 100% sustainably sourced fish ( really excellent) while the beef was less so - You are at an all inclusive resort, so know the buffets will be plentiful but not exciting, as they need to meet a wide range of tastes, ages, - they cover vegan options at every meal and restaurant - which is super impressive, and part of why we chose them. The grounds are well kept, and always immaculate. The rooms are straightforward - not crazy fancy, but again, immaculate. There is filtered water and ice and refillable water bottles - no single use plastics! And here is the REAL winner - the staff - I want to mention Abi, who organized restaurant reservations for us, and gave us our intro to what restaurants and events; Leo, who was a star when I suffered a sting from something and looked after us, and Israel -entertainer, instructor, - super charming and friendly and helpful - but every person, in the restaurants, front desk, at the bar, at the pool, cleaners was friendly, helpful - and made our stay pleasant, and made us want to come back. Here's one more important factor - we've been hearing horror stories from our friends that they are badgered with sales pitches throughout their stay to join ' clubs' or 'memberships". We were pitched when we came in, and we made it clear that we are not interested, and that was it, no-one bothered us again, and my message to Iberostar and others is NOT pushing the hard sell is the best way to be sure that we want to come back!! Bravo to Iberostar, and I hope other resort lines pay attention!

Beautiful Resort. Boring at Night.

Logan R (Boston, Massachusetts) on Jan 27, 2025

Overall I really enjoy the resort. Sister to Quetzal. The only difference between the two is decor, with Tucan being more “Mexican.” I stayed at the Quetzal two years. Food I think got better overall (though the salsas seemed to be less spicy (sad for me)). I did an up charge steak at the Mediterranean restaurant and honestly was shocked how well it came out. Beach is beautiful. Stayed in building 16 facing interior. Liked being close to the lobby but if you are a light sleeper and go to bed before 11 you’ll hear the theatre pretty clearly. Outlets were an odd issue too. None by the bed and had to unplug a light for both of us to be able to charge our phones. Major drawback to this resort is the entertainment (mainly at night). It’s improved from 2 yrs ago but overall just strange choices. During the day, they would turn off the music at the main pool and do bingo at like 3pm. Staff had to practically beg people to play. Should add the staff was great, it’s more the scheduling decisions. At night, the lobby bars were usually dead. Doesn’t help that entertainment was light and if there wasn’t any, the lobby music was usually elevator music. The few times it was more lively they did karaoke or had Latin music playing and all the fun Argentinans would get a dance party going. Probably fine if you’re with a group or a family with young kids. Playacar neighborhood is safe and great to walk around, nice little taco shop about 10 minutes down the road. I would come back bc it is beautiful but after dinner, it’s pretty boring.
