HOTEL REVIEW Sally Black from Vacationkids.com says there is a good reason why many Vacationkids families return to the Iberostar Paraiso Del Mar Resort year after year. One reason is it's perfect location. The Iberostar Paraiso Del Mar is ideal situated in the Riviera Maya fifteen miles south of Cancun Airport and fifteen miles north of the town of Playa Del Carmen. This makes it a quick ride from all of the area's best attractions.

The Iberostar Paraiso Del Mar is part of Iberostar Playa Paraiso Resort complex. It was the first property built in this area which has grown exponentially in the past few years to now include a conference center and golf course. The area is composed of several hotels, namely the Iberostar Paraiso del Mar, Iberostar Paraiso Lindo, Iberostar Paraiso Maya and the Iberostar Grand Hotel Paraiso (this last one is adults only). The Iberostar Paraiso Del Mar offers the best pricing by comparison to the other Iberostar complex resorts so guests staying here can only use the facilities at their own resort. Iberostar guests staying at other resorts in the Iberostar complex are allowed to use the facilities at the Paraiso Del Mar. Iberostar Paraiso Del Mar guests are allowed day passes to use the facilities at the Iberostar Tucan located 15 miles away in Playa Del Carmen as well as the Iberostar Cozumel resort located a short ferry ride away from Playa Del Carmen on the island of Cozumel. With the day pass, guests can use pool, beach, restaurant and resort facilities between the hours of 9:00am to 6:00pm. Families will need to provide their own transportation to and from the Iberostar Paraiso Del Mar.

The Iberostar Paraiso Del Mar welcomes guests to it's lobby which is open to the air and surrounded by lush gardens. To the delight of kids young and old the lobby is also surrounded by bright pink flamingos and sparkling gold fish. Walkways to the resort entrance seem to float amongst the lilly ponds.

Iberostar Paraiso del Mar is a luxurious all-Inclusive resort consisting of eleven 3-story bungalows. The bungalow buildings to not have elevators so this is something to consider if you're traveling with small children or family members with mobility issues. Bungalows are surrounded by 35 acres of lush, manicured tropical gardens. This is a VERY large property. Guests can hop on and off electric trains that continually circle the resort property making stops at all the public areas.

The most remarkable feature of the Iberostar Paraiso Del Mar is the pool. This resort really is a pool lover's paradise. This resort boasts one of the largest free form fantasy pools in all the Riviera Maya. This 80,000 square foot body of water is more like a small lagoon than it is a pool, complete with waterfalls and little palm tree islands and swim up bars.

It just seems to go on for miles! Take a second glance at the resort arial photo at the top of this page so that you can get some sense of scale as to how big this pool really is. There's plenty of sun, shade and space for everyone to splash or relax.

For beach lovers, the Iberostar Paraiso Del Mar boasts 3/4 mile stretch of fine, white sandy beach along the transparent turquoise waters of the beautiful Caribbean Sea. Sally says the beach here is absolutely perfect! Families can enjoy non-motorized water sports, relax under a shady palapa or visit the 5-star PADI SSI Dive Center located right on the beach to arrange their underwater adventures(fee).

There is something to do day and night at the Iberostar Paraiso Del Mar for every member of the family... aerobics, dance lessons, Spanish lessons, water polo, beach volleyball, water volleyball, basketball, Ping-Pong, billiards and table soccer and many more organized activities around the pool area or at the beach.
