Let me start by saying we like to stay at nice places. We had reservations after all we had read on trip advisor about this place. The stay was fantastic and far exceeded our expectations. We travelled with our 2 children (6yr old girl and 13 yr old boy). We were scheduled to stay at the Lindo but the nice... more

My wife and I recently returned from a 2 week stay at the Iberostar Paraiso complex. We stayed at the Maya from 8/10 through 8/19 and then the Grand from 8/20 through 8/24. Perhaps my review can shed some light on the differences between the two resorts (in case you are considering booking one or the other). I’ll try to... more

A lovely friendly hotel. Drinks on arrival then suitcases taken to our room. The room was lovely and huge!. Full mini bar, free safe and all the trimmings coffee, tea, bath foam,shampoo, etc etc. Wow a lovely jacuzzi and a shower too.

We started traveling to the Mayan Riviera before we had children, almost 10 year ago, and we have stayed at the Royal Hideaway, Aventura Palace, Iberostar Paraiso Beach, and at the Royal Suites at the Palladium.

I read so many reviews of the resorts in this area that is nice to finally be able to contribute. Let me say that my wife and I just got back from getting married at the Maya and it was one of the best weeks of our lives. We had 24 other family members with us and all week we... more

We had a wonderful time at the Iberostar. Tons of activities, incredible pools and good entertainment. Watch out for the dive shop though! Yes, we had a great diving experience, but they practically charge you per breath you take! Most places charge around $9-15 for the second dive on a 2 tank dive whereas Dressell charges full setup again. Two... more
