The beach is great. They keep the beach clean if there’s sargazo. The food is very good. The facilities and rooms are clean. The entertainment is fun. The wild life around the green areas of the hotel is magical. We enjoyed our family vacation in this place. It has something to offer for people of all ages.

We spent 6 days and 5 nights at the Iberostar Tucan and it was great. Food and drinks were fantastic. The atmosphere of the beach and the employees were great and always energetic. We visited different restaurant every day for lunch and dinner. The Mediterranean had a very long line for food so we went to one of the dinner buffets.

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.

The location of resort and beach is perfect but sadly the rooms, restaurants need an upgrade - very old and dirty looking.
We were extremely disappointed with dining options. Not enough, many closed so limited options unless you do buffet which in all honesty is one of the worst we have been too. We have been to many resorts over 15yrs in playa and this resort was dissapointing.

The happiness start when we upgrade our room to oceanfront, wonderful view in the morning with amazing sunrise. Friendly front desk . You can feel short staff everywhere in restaurant, bars, walking areas . Deficient of variety food, Restaurants starts at 8 AM. Jungle garden with animals wonderful for kids. This resort only for families, not for Single people.

I loved the jungle environment maintained on the property! Gives you that tropical feel! Property could use music at swim up bar area as it is somewhat removed from main pool entertainment area.
