Iberostar Waves Dominicana

The resort has met all our expectations, well equipped for several different activities, an amazing beach, pools and restaurants. The food is various, great for any kind of taste, different themes per night which allow you to experience different flavours and cuisines. The entertainment team is the best part of the resort, always up for a game or a dance lession or a fitness activity, never pushy and always smiley! The dancing classes were my fav! The room met our expectations, clean and spacious, just a small down side, it was a bit humid and the clothes felt a bit wet. A special thanks is for our super amazing concierge, Bella. She has been just perfect, smiley, lovely, always ready to help and give advices, address us to the right people and answer to any of our questions, plus for my birthday she managed to sort out special treats for me and i couldn't be happier! A definitely positive experience very recommended to all.

Horrible experience with incredibly unhelpful staff. We booked for 3 children. We accurately listed their ages and birthdates. We received confirmation for three children. Upon arrival we were told we were mistakenly charged for 3 infants and that we'd be forced to pay the difference-nearly $900! We had two adults in our party that were unable to make the trip. We were told they could not offer any refund or credits; they were only authorized to charge more for the kids. Horrible. With 150+ resorts in the area, we will be going elsewhere next time. TLDR: Refused to honor our booking. Charged us nearly $900 extra once we were already there. Will never go to an iberostar hotel in any country..stay away..

We had a room in building 5 on the top floor. The room itself had a huge vaulted ceiling and the bathroom was fantastic! A couple of problems - we had two rooms for my party of 7 (my wife, kids and I). The room with the ocean view was tied to the older kids while my wife and I had the garden view. The first night, the air conditioner was dripping water and we woke up with a wet bed ☹️ The beach was beautiful, but very packed! Lots of guys that want you to go parasailing and do other water activities. This was nice as there isn't much to do on the resort outside of swim, drink, eat, or play ping pong. The resort offers some in site shopping. The buffets were ok...nothing to write home about. Buffet foods were bland and didn't really have any Dominican flavor like you would find once you got off of the resort. The Japanese and Mexican restaurants were great, while the American restaurant fell flat. It was extremely tough to get refills unless you went to a bar or got them yourself. Even getting drinks during your meal can be tough. Not a lot of English spoken on the resort and those that do speak decent English want you to go to the "timeshare" breakfast so they get their points. My wife and I decided not to go to the breakfast and we were hounded daily by the front desk staff about going. We didn't not see any travel agents on the resort (Amstar or any other travel service). The resort is really close to the free shopping - a nearby store called Worldmart. This place doesn't offer a local shopping experience like you may find further away. Zero negotiating and you are clearly not supporting locals. Overall, this was a super clean and beautiful resort, but service and food were mediocre at best. The staff was very friendly, but really pushed timeshares.

Beautiful perfectly located on Bavaro Beach. Very clever canopy design, you'd have to pay attention to know that everything except the bedrooms are not enclosed. Bathrooms and food could be updated. Everything else just lovely..

I had such a great time at Iberostar dominicana! Fourteen, Baby Black, Little Sexy, Chris Brown, Chocolate, Ray, Heime, and all the staff were amazing, super friendly, and made the experience even more enjoyable. There were always many fun activities and crazy games to play and the shows were very entertaining. The food and drinks were good, rooms were clean, and the pool and beach were beautiful. Would recommend and come back!
