We were at the iberostar quetzal for a week in September. Here is what I have to say about the resort.
We were very impressed with the resort and had such a great time, with a few things to note. The food was great for all inclusive, the beach was gorgeous, DO NOT miss the fire show it was incredible. Our room was nice and felt authentic although there was a sewage smell outside unfortunately. Beds were very comfortable. Absolutely NO noise was heard from outside our room which was amazing.
Our room was right at the entrance of the resort, it took no more than 5 minutes to walk from our room to the beach. Beaches have umbrellas built in, be prepared to wake up early if you want a chair on the beach many people would put a towel on chairs and just leave them there all day to save their spot without coming back until the afternoon, which was kind of annoying. But the beach was beautiful, water was INCREDIBLE.
They do their best to keep everyone entertained, always something going on if you felt like you wanted to participate.
We thought the drinks were great and not watered down at all.
We payed $35 for sunscreen at the gift shop. Pack it before you get there.
Staff was always pleasant and friendly.
All in all it was an amazing spot to stay and we found ourselves talking about future trips there, we are excited to stay again.
