    Fantastic resort!

    Ahhh! This place was amazing! My sweetheart and I stayed here for a week at the end of April 2025 and have already made plans to return. The resort grounds are immaculate and just beautiful (I loved all the interesting plants!). Our room, inside a 4-room bungalow, was perfect. It was small, but very cozy and we loved that it wasn't inside one of those massive hotels with hundreds of rooms in one building. The bungalows really add to the magic of this place. The food was always good and always PLENTY to eat. We favored the smoke house but loved all of the restaurants. The drinks were flowing and while they were a little watered down, they were delicious!! I think the most important thing to point out is the STAFF. Wow. Where did you find such kind and helpful people to work at your resort? Every single person we came into contact with was very kind, helpful, friendly, funny (at times!) and really took interest in the guests and making sure everyone had a great experience. We cannot say enough good things about the staff and appreciate everything they did for us while we were at the resort. Thank you! We will be back in 2026!!

    I was skeptical of resorts, but I have been converted. Highly recommend Iberostar in Cozumel.

    When my father suggested we do our family trip at a resort, I was skeptical. I didn't want to miss out on having the full travel experience. But after staying at Iberostar in Cozumel, I am sold. It was the perfect combination of relaxation with exciting activities and excursions to take advantage of. The resort has all the amenities you might need, and the pool is gorgeous. The best part of our stay however was definitely the staff; they made us feel so welcome. Huge thanks to Elihut and the Entertainment Team who made our stay so special. I was a big fan of the inflatable obstacle course, karaoke, and Boogie Night! Also, the food was amazing, with tons of variety. Shout out to Yoania for treating us like royalty every night. The entire resort was very clean and the rooms were perfect. Thanks to all the cleaning and maintenance staff. I would highly recommend staying here for anyone who is thinking about having their first resort experience like me.

    Superb food, activities, and resort

    Hands down the best vacation I’ve been on! They have literally everything here. The food (all you can eat food and alcohol) is impeccable. Incredible gourmet dishes with different themes each night and multiple beach and poolside bars. They also have water activities all included like snorkeling, wind surfing, catamarans, kayaks, paddle boarding. And there is an amazing entertainment team that plans games and activities (all organized and displayed in the app) for people of all ages and interests. Some of my favorite activities included the fire show, pool aerial acrobat performance, volleyball tournament, and ceramic painting. Pretty much all activities are included in the price (except for scuba diving and ceramics painting which was extra). There is amazing wildlife here, like coati, iguanas, macaws, flamingos. And the sea life is INCREDIBLE. Just snorkeling I saw thousands of gorgeous tropical fish, multiple barracudas, many starfish and conch, and a sting ray. The water is pristine crystal clear blue. Scuba diving we also saw beautiful coral and sea turtles (Riki-our scuba tour guide- and Tanya-our instructor- were absolutely wonderful. They were knowledgeable, patient, fun, and helped ease any nerves we had). Everyone was so friendly and fun and I was able to practice my Spanish a lot! The sleeping rooms were also so cute with AC and ours was right by the beach and pool. For the price you’re not going to find a better place!

    Great all-inclusive in Cozumel!

    Lovely resort with something for everyone! We loved the buffet meals, the pool is inviting and the service is outstanding. We want to send a special shout out to the restaurant manager Yoania for her kindness and impeccable customer service. My younger son loved the kid's camp and we want to say thank you to Ismael, Sol and Rosa for making his time there the best. The lunch buffett was okay but the snack shack near the pool was a great alternative with burgers, hot dogs, fries, fruit, desserts and soft serve. Pool service was great although sometimes it was hard to find someone but overall we were pleased. Thank you to Ruby, Ana and Irene for bringing us drinks. Overall a great resort for families. We will be back!
