Beautiful property grounds. Main pool does not have a swim up bar and no service, had to get out to go get drinks. The resort credit is not a real credit should be advertised as coupons for the resort. You can only use a little bit of the credit at certain places. The property raises prices if you use the credit. We were offered a massage from one of the employees for $128 and when we mentioned what the cost would be with the credit was told she would have to raise the price to $150 and we could get $25 off.

The amount of noise that came in every morning at 6:00 am was ridiculous . Construction trucks, bags of dirt, ply wood and drilling felt more like a construction site then a resort. We also got food poising and lost a day due to being sick . We informed staff and both our concern just to be told they are sorry and just smiled at us. Not a good experience.

Had a wonderful time at the Iberostar Tucan! I traveled with a vegetarian who had plenty to eat, as well as a 12 year old picky eater, who was happy with the choices at the buffet at all meals. I was a bit disappointed by the Italian restaurant sit down option, honestly much rather preferred the variety in the buffet. Everything was always clean which can be hard to do at a large property, but all restrooms were in tip-top shape always. The beach access was amazing, and the water was a beautiful turquoise blue. You do have to get there early to save seats unfortunately, but an added perk is being able to see the sunrise while you do it, which is stunning. Overall would definitely go back to this property.

This is our third time in Iberostar Tucan, this time we spent 6 wonderful days at the resort. The food is clean and delicious. The staff is kind, knowledgeable and always helpful; they always wear their uniform but we were wondering whether they could use short sleeves as the weather is really really hot. Paco and their team at Star camp were all friendly and took good care of the kids. My daughter (11) quickly made friends there. The travel agency W2M was perfect for our vacation tour to ruins/turtles/cenote. **The only warning is that people should be careful with heat lamps at the buffet; wife had a small accident and burned hand with one of those lamps. However, the whole experience was wonderful and we can't wait to come back again.
