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.

Clean rooms, but rooms are small and dated. Good quality food, but very limited reservation availability for the nice restaurants. Pool was well kept and very large size. Great drinks at the bar, very healthy pours :) Kid friendly. Very safe community, guarded gate entry. Walking distance from 5th ave or $10 taxi drive. Great staff service all around at restaurants/bar/cleaning/maintenance. Though, the biggest disappointment for us was on we booked a king bed premium near pool room for my husband and I since this was a trip for our 10th year anniversary, but we got stuck with two double beds, no remediation/refund/add on services was offered, so not a great customer service coverage on that part. Also management posted fliers/signs/advertisements for a big Friday night show but whenever we showed up there was a $60/person entry fee, this fee was not posted on any advertisement around the property. Overall the stay was okay, the place was well kept and food/drinks were good. Not rushing to return to resort.

We really liked this resort! The staff is friendly and helpful, the whole place is beautiful, the food is good, and the beach and pool are great. Housekeeping does a great job keeping the room clean from day to day. We had our 9 month old with us and he loved all the fun animals around the property— flamingos, parrots, monkeys, tortoises, peacocks… basically a whole zoo! It’s very cool! A monkey even came within a couple feet of us which he found very exciting. The water was calm enough to take him into the ocean most days. The beach was beautiful without much seaweed. The food was pretty good as well. I found the buffet above average in my experience of resort buffets, and we enjoyed the Japanese hibachi restaurant as well as the smokehouse. I really can’t come up with any complaints about this place!

The property was really nice and clean. The pool was huge, it was beautiful but, its really deep... theres only 2 shallow areas with no shade and with young kids that cant swim it was always panic mode if we saw them walking towards the deep end. Other than the breakfast buffet, the buffets at this resort weren't the best. The only place we found where the food was ok was the Smoke house, the Italian restaurant and the kids would enjoy the burgers and fries by the beach. Definitely not a five star for food or hotel rooms. The rooms are really outdated. Being from Canada, alot of other South American guests would stare at us when we would talk to each other in english. They were not friendly at all. Also, beware that when you check in they are so friendly because they want you to join the Iberostar premium club. They waste 2 hours of your time the following day with presentations and then when you say no your not interested in joining .... there not the friendliest after that. We were dealing with Luis... and the next evening when I saw him in the lobby he turned his face and ignored me.

I truly, enjoyed staying at the Iberostar Tucán. I have stayed at multiple all inclusive hotels throughout the years. But this hotel has to be one of the Best, The buffet is so fresh and so much to choose from. The daily live entertainment is as good as Vegas. There is grilled food prepared daily on the beach, the Eco hotel is beautiful, with variety of animals, monkeys, peacocks, etc. I will definitely return.

First of all, visit the place and form your own opinion. Quite a few reviews were not favorable. But I decided to give this place a try, and boy, am I glad I did. The place was immaculate , and considering how enormous this resort is, that is no mean feat. From the moment we entered the lobby( there are 2 by the way), I fell in love with the place. Staff were so polite and friendly. Dining options were plenty. Some reviews said the rooms were dated, but the rooms we were put up in were pretty good. And clean. The beach was clean. A few weeds here and there which were not much of a problem. A shout out to Aarti who went above and beyond and welcomed us. The only con would be the limited parking spots. We had to drive around a few times before we found 2 spots. Other than that, no complaints whatsoever. Would definitely return as well as recommend to friends and family.

Beautiful property with kind, attentive staff. Our rooms were spotless each day and the grounds are gorgeous. We enjoyed every meal and had top notch service at each restaurant. Beach had some sargassum but the resort seemed to be constantly working to remove it. Only suggestion- our rooms were far from breakfast locations and it would’ve been nice to at least have coffee available closer to beach area.
