Excellent resort!!! Right from the moment we (ourselves and three other couples) entered the resort! ....at check-in they accomodated our request for all four couples to be in building 21, twenty steps from the pool and the closest you can be to beach/ocean without hefty upgrade. The grounds are very well groomed but yet it still feels like you are... More

Beautiful grounds. So lush. The hotel pool was beautiful and fun to swim in. The food in the buffets was good but the restaurants was excellent. I loved the Coco-Loco drinks. We don't drink alcohol so they made all of the specialty drinks for us virgin. I didn't like the topless women on the beach. I have 6 boy and... More

Two hotels seperated by jungle - monkeys, peacocks, flamingos, Agouti , Iguanas-great if you like wildlife! Main buildings are single storey, tall & thatched & wall-less creating fantastic natural air-conditioning (netted to keep birds out of restaurants) Rooms bright & comfortable but views mainly of the jungle. Excellent choice of food including opportunity to try Mexican dishes & good a... More

We stayed at the Iberostar Tucan/Quetzal February 1-8/2012. We arrived in the mid afternoon and were greeted quickly and with a nice cold drink in the reception area. Check in was not until 3:00 but we were able to go for lunch while our bags were watched at the front lobby. I had requested some specific rooms before our arrival... More

We recently came back from our first trip to Iberostar Quetzal. We always stay at Iberostars, so we knew what to expect. We were positively surprised. Iberostar Quetzal was the best one we visited so far. We were a party of 5 or as we used to say 4 ½ as we traveled with a 20-month-old daughter. She was crazy... More

I want to second the comment about bar tender extraordinaire Hilario. My wife and friends all could not stop talking about Hilario for weeks after leaving, and still to this day. Here is a guy that makes 12 to 14 bloody marys, margaritas, etc. at a time for 10-12 hours a day and does it with a smile. We enjoyed... More
