What our guests says about facilities

The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Delicious Food Variety

I was blown away by the food options available at this resort! The buffet offered numerous theme nights with a great selection of salads, grilled fish, and even a vegetarian section. Each day brought something new, and I particularly loved the additional seafood options. Additionally, I enjoyed the beach grill for lunch, which made it easy to snack without being formal. The dining experience was impressive throughout our stay.

Fun Kids Club

I loved how family-friendly the resort was! Although there were fewer kids during our visit, the Kids Club was well-run and allowed my children to engage in fun activities while I relaxed. The animation team, including Erika and Karla, did an excellent job ensuring the kids had a superb time. I appreciated having a dedicated space for the children, making it a hit for families!

Lovely Ocean View Room

Our ocean view room was absolutely wonderful! It had been recently remodeled, and I appreciated the extra storage space and improved beds. The housekeeping team kept everything sparkly clean and always had plenty of towels available. The shelf below the sink was a nice touch, making it easy for us to manage our toiletries. We truly felt at home in our room.

Relaxing Pool Area

The pools at the resort were perfect for relaxation! I loved how beautifully maintained they were, and it was nice to have both kid-friendly areas and adult spaces. I spent days lounging by the pool, enjoying some yoga sessions by the beach, and soaking up the sun. Whether you want to join activities or lounge with a good book, the leisure options were endless and good.

I had a wonderful time at this resort! The grounds are beautifully maintained, and I loved the unique rainforest vibe with all the exotic wildlife. The activities are plenty, making it a great place for families. However, the dining experience left a bit to be desired with some dishes being just average, and the air conditioning in the dining areas could really use an upgrade.

The location is fantastic for nature lovers, with lush grounds featuring a variety of trees and animals like iguanas and peacocks wandering around. The beach has some rocky areas, so water shoes are recommended, but it offers good snorkeling from the pier.

While the buffet had decent options, the food was generally standard and not overly impressive. Some items were enjoyable, like the local cheeses and coconut ice cream, but the overall dining experience could use some variety and flair.

Overall, I had a mix of experiences during my stay at the resort. While the wildlife and beach access for snorkeling were highlights, the dining options were hit or miss, and the room experience was less than ideal. The service was friendly, but the delays in room readiness and some confusion with amenities dampened the experience a bit.

Iberostar Cozumel offers a charming experience with well-maintained grounds and great service. The atmosphere is relaxed, and the food typically satisfies, although I found the dining options to be a bit variable. The rooms can be hit-or-miss regarding amenities, and a few more chairs on the balconies would be a nice touch. Overall, it represents good value for money, especially considering their eco-friendly initiatives.
