We spent the second week of December,2024 at the Iberostar waves Costa Dorada. This was our third vacation at this resort. It was great pre-Covid, needed improvement post-Covid and currently still needs to improve on many features that did not meet expectations. We waited over two hours to get a recently remodelled suite. It was disappointing to say the least. The first day the shower drain in one room plugged and repeated it the second day after being repaired. As we were in a two bedroom family suite we required both showers. The refrigerator in the main suite leaked each day despite also”being repaired.” The safe would not open on the second day and required security to come open it and reset it. The rooms both looked tired other than the bathrooms which were somewhat updated with new tile, fixtures and paint over old trim. Day two required a repair on the patio door which emitted the most excruciating squeal when opening that it was not being used. It was repaired that day. Food was great and even a hit with our three grandchildren. Despite an obvious lack of wait staff, we did get through the week with plenty of good food. Beach palapa were being renewed throughout the week which should be great for the future. Beach loungers are still a critical issue in my view. Many are reserved with a towel all day and some never used, yes, never used throughout the day. Monitoring of this issue is a problem at every DR resort. This was not an issue in One resort we visited in Cozumel as security simply removed the towels after a period of time. Weekends and locals is still one issue we have in the Dominican Republic. Although the resort does its best, behaviour and attitude makes for unpleasant meals and relaxation on the beach and around the pool. Hopefully, management will read this review and respond to my comments specifically and not in their usual “canned” comments.

Nice Day Visit

hbhakh (Roanoke, Virginia) on Dec 16, 2024

We visited this property after purchasing a day room/pass from Resort Pass. When we arrived, there was a short registration process and we were given a key to a room near the pool. The room was fine.....clean and comfortable. I'm sure it was a low level room for the resort so I would want something a little larger if we were staying. The grounds of the resort are very nice. There's a large pool with lots of lounge chairs. There are quite a few more chairs/palapas between the pool and the beach. The beach is nice but the water is not the typical "Caribbean blue." We chose to stay at the pool. There were several bars so getting drinks was easy. There wasn't any pool service. There was a small buffet/snack bar near the pool that had a good variety of items. The larger buffet is closer to the lobby. It didn't open for lunch until 1 pm, which seemed a little late. There was larger variety at this venue. The food was good, not great. It was plenty for our short visit. There are some sit down restaurants available for dinner. All of the staff were very helpful. We would visit again.
