Iberostar Waves Paraiso del Mar

I have been to Mexico many times and this hotel is the best so far. A beautiful large resort and you can also use the side resorts where they take you by golf carts. The food is great, which many times I can't believe is so fantastic prepared in buffet restaurants. There are plenty of restaurants and bars everywhere so you don't wait in line or for tables at all. There are also plenty of sun loungers by the pools and on the beach, so even if you come in the afternoon you still have a place to sit. What in other hotels so far in the morning was always all occupied. The staff at the hotel are very experienced and willing to help with everything. If I go to Mexico again I will definitely go to this hotel which I would never do twice to the same hotel.

I had a fantastic stay at Iberostar Waves Paraiso del Mar. The hotel is beautifully maintained, with lovely surroundings, great facilities, and a calm, relaxing atmosphere, exactly what you hope for on a holiday. Over the years, I’ve visited many hotels and holiday destinations across Europe, so I have a clear sense of quality when it comes to hospitality. As a graduate of a Hotel Management program at a Higher Hotel School, I can say with confidence that this hotel delivers an excellent guest experience. The food was absolutely perfect, fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented at every meal. Compliments to the chefs and the entire kitchen team! What stood out the most was the service, especially from Alex. He understands how to approach guests with genuine warmth, professionalism, and respect. His natural ability to make people feel welcome is exactly what we value in the hospitality industry. The hotel is truly lucky to have someone like him on the team. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a relaxing, well-organized vacation with top-quality food and outstanding service. Love from Anneke

🫤Meh. We loved the animals and jungles location of the buildings which is great for kids and we like to walk. Unfortunately the food choice is not great - we were missing sea products which should not be an issue in Caribbean. Unfortunately there is a lot of sargassum on the beach and crew does not seem to rush to clean it. The tractor was just making rounds on beach and the weed was untouched. The pools are big which is good with sargassum, but they are not being cleaned regularly from leaves and has been full of leaves particles and the pool bottom is slippery which means hotel does not use pool cleaners Also the place being advertised as 5 stars hotel - turned out this to be 4 which we were told when checking in. Also, it was surprise to know there is no access to lazy river. Turned out Lindo and Maya to be higher rate which does not worth the upgrade as the place overcrowded. To add on cuisine- the dinner is the best food choice you can have . Do not waste time in restaurants- they just do not worth visiting in evening. Breakfast and lunches are very simple. Open concept is fine but this place should add UV fly traps to avoid flies getting to the food.

We had a wonderful week of family time and relaxation. The food was awesome and service was top notch. We loved the variety of activities near the pools, as well as time spent in quiet relaxation away from all the activities. There are many golf carts available for shuttles to various activities or from your room to the lobby. The hotel staff were all very friendly and worked hard to meet our every request. Javier from the Club was a bright shining face every day and helped navigate us to activities we wanted to do. The entertainment team was friendly and fun providing fun gatherings each evening. We had daily visits from Carlos and Jesus (Star Prestige) during our stay to be sure our stay was going OK We’re sad to leave and already looking forward to our return trip.

This Paradiso Del Mar Resort is stunning as you enter the grounds. It was our first time staying at an all inclusive resort. The most amazing experience and highlight of our trip would be a young, charismatic, professional, named Alex Mendoza who went beyond the call of duty to provide us with a 5 Star stay. He was an excellent listener who accommodated us with all our issues. We arrived at check in where we were not going to be given the rooms we paid for. After not accepting the receptionist’s rooms, they gave in and gave us what we paid for. It was a challenge getting dinner reservations as they were always booked. We couldn’t make any dinner reservations a few days in advance. It was always on the day of and they were usually booked. We were only able to get in with last minute cancellations. The showers in the rooms really need some improvements. They’re designed very poorly. Alex was always able to listen to us and provide solutions. He fulfilled everything he promised us and more! We only wish the Resort would have more Alex’s! If you vacation here, ask for Alex Mendoza!
