Iberostar Waves Paraiso del Mar

Excellent Hotel with an Outstanding Entertainment Crew I had the pleasure of spending 10 days at this fantastic hotel, and I can confidently say it was one of the best vacation experiences I’ve ever had. Everything, from the accommodation to the service and entertainment, was simply perfect. A special shout-out goes to the entertainment crew – they are the heart of the hotel! The team brought energy, creativity, and professionalism, making every day a unique experience. The evening shows were top-notch – from captivating dance and musical performances to humorous skits, there was something for everyone. The crew also provided fantastic daytime entertainment, whether through sports activities or other games. They struck the perfect balance between animation and relaxation, ensuring that every guest felt comfortable and catered to. What impressed me the most was how personally the team engaged with the guests – you immediately felt welcome and included.

In all this is not a 4 or 5 star resort. 3 tops. Staff were friendly and helpful. The food was average at best. There is only one single cafe for the entirety of 4 resorts in a shared “market” area, which, if you “upgrade” to beach access, you are over a kilometre away from those kinds of “amenities”. The room itself was alright, nothing spectacular… here is the huge issue, the mattress was awful. Now I am not expecting some high end mattress, but this was brutal… so bad that I could barely sleep, woke up multiple times and every morning I was stiff. I ended my vacation more tired than when I began… the same would be said for my wife. One plus, as this was not the “high end” or step up resort, it was not incredibly busy… With that being said, the “restaurants” needed reservations and we could only get into one of them, the night before we left… there were a few that did not need reservations and were on a first-come first-serve, but if you were not in line before 6, you would be waiting until after 8 to get in. Beach itself was below expectations with only a small portion of beach truly being something you would be comfortable wading in… and that portion was in front of the high end hotel… leaving the rest of the beach for the “peasants” covered in rocks… To be honest, I would save your money and check out another one… we won’t be coming back to another Iberostar…

I came here with a group of friends and we had a fun time overall. The resort is beautiful and the food was pretty good. However, do not come here if you have a moderate to severe food allergy. Someone in our group had a nut allergy and, theoretically, it should have been fine. The resort had a practice in place where you go over your allergies with a concierge and they create an allergy card for you that you present to the staff before you eat at any of the restaurants and they will assist you. In spite of this, my friend was served food she was allergic to on several occasions and spent a lot of the trip dealing with the fallout of reactions. When she spoke to management about this on our final morning, they were very rude and unsympathetic to her.

The Iberostar resort is an excellent experience for all. We always had so many amazing activities to take part in! One of our favourites each morning was Rifle shooting. It was a fun way to have a bit of competition. Gabriel was our activity leader for this and he was amazing, very encouraging and kind. Overall great experience!
