calgal729 Posted June 30, 2023 #1 Share Posted June 30, 2023 (edited) Has anyone done the all inclusive day pass at this beach resort? It looks beautiful and tropical online, but not finding much in the way of reviews. We're looking for a really nice beach that's all-inclusive, with good food and drinks, good friendly service, and no loud music (no Mr. Sancho's!) Not looking for kids activities like water slides and day camp, and hopefully, a place that's not too crowded and not more than 20 minutes from the port. If anyone's been to this resort, I'd be interested to hear your experience. Thanks! Edited June 30, 2023 by calgal729 left off a word Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blue_water Posted June 30, 2023 #2 Share Posted June 30, 2023 We stay at the Ibero Tucan near PDC and have visited the Ibero Coz property. We wouldn’t go there for the beach, or for the food and drinks, actually. What are your port times? Have you looked at Buccanos? Not technically AI but the same nonetheless… https://www.buccanos.com/en/activities Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am actually headed to Buccanos tomorrow as well as a couple of other spots and will answer any questions. We also have reservations in January at the Cabanas at Chankanaab which may be an idea as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c-leg5 Posted July 2, 2023 #4 Share Posted July 2, 2023 Lots of good recent reviews on TA to read with the ceveat some are from the usual one-post wonders and mostly from people staying at the resort. Occidental lost a lot of their beach in storms last year and I don’t know if this affected Iberostar too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was it the beach, pool area not up to par, or were you not happy with the food or service? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Open 10 - 6 only… Bucanos is the first choice for many coming from PDC to spend the day on Coz. Edited July 3, 2023 by blue_water Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
