We have been to this resort 2 times. 5 years ago and again on 05/17/2013. First thing - Iberostar Quetzal and Tucan share the same property. There is construction going on on the Quetzal side on another resort. 7am to 7pm, heavy equipment and noise, so be warned. Doesn't look like it will be completed before the end of summer... More

Hotel Tucan is a very pretty hotel. The grounds are gorgeous with an abundance of animals. I was there with friends for a week.The staff can't be friendlier &the Entertainment staff are terrific. They keep everyone busy. I was not thrilled with the food. We had been to the Ibeorstar in Cancun last year & everything there is top quality.... More

I came here with my family for 2weeks. I was totally awed by the settings of both the quetzal and toucan hotels. The sound of waterfalls and fountains everywhere. The walk to the pool/beach through the jungle was delightful,especially when you get the howling monkey family passing through. I loved the agoutis,peacocks and trying to spot the huge iguanas sunbathing... More

Had an absolutely fantastic time in Playa del Carmen, and I definitely recommend the Iberostar Tucan. I traveled with my 22 year old daughter, and we had a perfect week. We loved the very natural feel of the Tucan – it is not a big high rise plopped on the beach but rather separate buildings, each housing about 40-some rooms.... More
