Feb 01, 2026Ocean view worth the cost. Whales!
What a wonderful stay. This was truly the perfect getaway. We upgraded to an ocean view and it was incredible to sit and watch the whales from our balcony every day. Shout out to Ale, our server by the pool. She was awesome. Also to the folks up at the Sunset bar. Also to the ladies in the cafe. Finally the staff in the buffet were great. All of them friendly and wonderful to chat with. The Japanese restaurant was so much fun and our chef Yarret (forgive me if I got her name wrong!) was so funny and the food was so good! We felt like our section was having the best time in there. We were not able to get pesos into smaller bills at the front desk. Other reviews we'd read here and suggested we could. Other people mentioned the same thing. So I do recommend doing that before you arrive. We figured it out. The room was great. There is a Chromecast attached to the tv so that was handy. Housekeeping was a bit off. Forgetting fresh towels, refilling toilet paper. It was just weird. Finally if you walk along the beach recommend going right. Less people selling things. We look forward to coming back in the future.

Great hotel
Fantastic hotel, quality food and drinks, extremely clean, great service and nightly entertainment was top notch! The only surprise was beach with huge waves, good fro walking along the beach but no swimming at all.

Jan 31, 2026Service excellent room needs improvement
Staff and service was amazing beach beautiful and pools are fantastic Food was ok but not great The downside of the resort was our room. Only 1 outlet worked and the TV had a line down the screen How ever that wasnt a big inconvenience as we were not in the room very much The most disappointing aspect to the room was the walls were very thin you could hear the people in the next room talking like they were in our room. We stayed at the resort last year and didn’t have this issue so it was probably the room itself This didn’t ruin the trip but made it not as relaxing

It's OK
We probably should have looked into this resort a bit more before booking, as it’s quite a distance from Puerto Vallarta. The property itself is beautiful, and the staff truly works hard to make guests feel welcome. That said, the rooms are somewhat dated, the nightly entertainment is limited, and the buffet food is often on the cold side. It also seems to be a very popular spot for families—there were children everywhere, which suggests they offer great deals for kids. I personally don’t mind that at all, but if you prefer a quieter, adults‑focused environment, this may not be the best fit.

Ibero "5" Star playa Mita WOW !
Iberostar Playa Mita was an incredible vacation for us . We have been to many resorts over the years but never one that so completely was always on target to provide complete satisfaction during our day The rooms were great at any level or type The buffet will amaze you and the selection of food and other restaurants keep your meal options fresh and new each day The highlight of our service provided was Mayra in the lobby Bar who made a point of getting to know us and never stopped keeping us well taken care of every time we came in . Pedro at the bar was fantastic and made some mean ol drinks !! Juan in guest services and Emily at the front desk made our check in and resort access a top notch experience. We will definitely be back next year ! Jeff and Pam Williams
