Beautiful, great food, poor sun bed availability

Food was amazing, the choice of restaurants is fantastic, such variety. Resort with the jungle in the middle was great, we had peacocks walking around us on the beach and at the pool! It’s a beautiful place. Rooms are nice, balconies shaded but slightly dated. Staff are cleaning, painting and gardening all the time keeping the resort at its best. Only let downs were the sun beds are all reserved very early and the staff accept money to reserve them for you. The people next to us one day paid $100 to reserve for 2 weeks. It’s poor. Also, the resort ‘credit’ you receive is actually 25% discount when you spend $100! No kids entertainment in the nights and some things are payable. We would recommend but wouldn’t return due to the sun beds.

We had a room that was with an ac not working properly. It was reported multiple times, with us actually walking into the room with maintenance checking it and told us it was working fine. To our surprise it was actually hotter that night. The day before we left the manager came to our room and it was indeed not working. Out of our entire stay we had one night of ac. When checking out we were then greeted with a manager and promised we would receive an email with upgrades and ways to try and rectify our stay. Here we are almost a week later with no email. Even after me emailing them as a follow up. This was our 3rd time to stay at an Iberostar property. Unfortunately, possibly our last. Outside of this we had another issue - a worker found my son’s yeti cup and was using it. Sons fault for loosing it but that shows your staff do not turn things into lost and found. We made the most of our stay and enjoyed the people we came with as well as the beach, pool, food and drinks. We had 5 rooms at the resort. 1 other had ac problems as well. They were disappointed as well.

Overall, we enjoyed our stay at Iberostar Tucan, but there are a few things to be aware of. The rooms are quite outdated — some of the light fixtures didn’t work, and there were very few power outlets, which was a bit inconvenient. Other than that, everything was great: the territory is well-maintained, and the overall experience was positive.

This is a beautiful resort. Absolutely gorgeous. And the food is great! However, the service factor that is usually included in all inclusive resorts does not exist at this resort. There are zero pool and beach waiters. You have to flag the staff down at restaurants for service. We were also stood up by the bellboy that we made an appointment with on our departure day. There are no elevators so it was a little annoying. Not the most relaxing experience. The pool is warm.. uncomfortably so by lunch. The swim up bar is great, but adult only. The housekeeping crew was great and quick. All in all, we are glad to have visited this resort, but probably won’t revisit.
