My name is Damon Williams, and I just vacationed with my wife, Yolanda. My Butlers, Travis, and Omar, were outstanding. They did a great job tending to my wife and me. We look forward to seeing them every time we vacation on the property, and I look forward to using their services the next time we vacation in Jamacia.

Just returned from a great stay at Iberostar Grand. I had the Pleasure of having Alain as our Butler. He offered his services and provided his what’s app phone number to ensure we can always communicate with him. Anything we needed he was there to provide it to us. Iberostar should appreciate Alain. His talent is unmatched. He communicate verbally not just yes or now, He knew how to hold a conversation and give an unbiased opinion even if it differed from ours. Please give that man a raise for all his hard work and his commitment to Iberostar Brand! Read less

My wife and I had an amazing time. Alain and Andre were our butlers and they made our experience incredible. They would help with anything, answer questions, bring coffee or anything we needed to the room - truly made it a perfect stay. We have stayed at a lot of all-inclusive resorts in Punta Cana, Bahamas, Cancun. This is the best one by far.… Read more
My wife and I had an amazing time. Alain and Andre were our butlers and they made our experience incredible. They would help with anything, answer questions, bring coffee or anything we needed to the room - truly made it a perfect stay. We have stayed at a lot of all-inclusive resorts in Punta Cana, Bahamas, Cancun. This is the best one by far. The food at most resorts is edible but never anything you’d be happy with at a restaurant you are paying for. The food here was actually VERY good. The steakhouse, Italian restaurant, buffet, French restaurant were all really good. The sushi was even pretty good. Other employees that made our experience great were Andre, Gary and Obian at the lobby bar. Travis at the concierge desk. Travis at the swim-up bar. Rasa at the coffee shop. Kyash with the entertainment team. Dwayne and Karissa at the Italian restaurant. We look forward to coming back. Read less
