We just came back from here and I have to say I was very disappointed! I saw soooo many amazing reviews that’s why we booked it ! The entertainment staff was AMAZING ! The food was blah. I do have to say our say our room had a moldy smell and the ac was not working but they came right away and fixed it ! The staff is very helpful and nice ! They really need to work on the situation with putting towels by the pool at 4 in the morning ! My mother n law got up around 6:30 and put her stuff on chairs and someone moved it. If towels are left for more than 2 hours they should be moved . The beach water was disgusting with seaweed and garbage. We made the best out of it but the would not be returning

I have been to five Iberostar properties across the Caribbean and Latin America. All of them, including this one, are part of a great chain of resorts. Unfortunately, this one seemed to lack compared to the others. It’s not really their fault. The beach area is not great. It is small and not very welcoming in appearance. The interior amenities are fine, just basic compared to other Iberostar. I’m still a big Iberostar fan. I just wouldn’t be quick to come back to this particular area.

This property is infested with mold, the hotel hasnt been updated since 1980 probably, the ceiling in bathroom is covered with some painted plywood and you can see black mold thru the cracks- the moment you turn off ac you can smell the toxicicity of it. My kids coughed the whole time while we were there. Plus we had a leak in the bathroom- and they gave me hard time about wanting to switch room!!! Besides- i booked 2 rooms for my family to stay- but somehow its not a common sense that i need to have rooms next to each other so my toddler kids can sleep in a room near me?! Staff tried to make it fun, but its not consistent- some have sour faces, others a bit more cheerful. Customer service is definitely below 5 stars; food for most part was mediocre- except for occasional local specialty and Italian restaurant. This is barely a 3.5 stars unfortunately.. i really tried to like it, but it was just not worth the $ paid and the unfilled expectations. Go to Mexico if you want to have quality accomodations, or at least pick the hotel where higher management plans ahead and foes necessary updates instead of just waiting for it to just fall apart.

They need to invest in maintaining this property which is 20 years old. My friend had to have her room changed twice because the toilet was not working. In my own room water was leaking. Staff was friendly. If you’re on a budget it’s an ok place to stay but no mas.

10/10 experience! I will definitely be back. I loved everything especially the food!!!! Such great food. The service from the staff was also great. Very accommodating and helpful. On my last day my original car service cancelled on me last minute and I was able to book a taxi through the hotel right away no issues. He was there at the designated time and I got to the airport right on time. The pools were great. The bartenders at the swim up bar and all of the other ones were great. I took my 6 year old son and he had a BLAST he’s still talking about it 4 weeks later lol Truly a Great experience overall. If you’re looking for somewhere to stay in puerto plata highly recommend Iberostar!!
