Judy and
Maria's First Impression of the Iberostar Tucan
Our first impression of the Iberostar Tucan Resort is that of happiness. The hotel is bright, tropical, active and fun. Guests enter the lobby and are greeted by brilliant colored parrots and toucans (the namesake of the hotel). After getting past the bird cages, one will notice the stained glass toucan window about the lobby bar. The Iberostar Tucan is a wonderful, happy hotel.
