Iberostar Hotels & Resorts - Cancún & Riviera Maya
Iberostar operates a comprehensive portfolio of all-inclusive beachfront resorts in Cancún and Riviera Maya, Mexico. Guests enjoy extensive cross-property dining privileges across 10+ properties, with multiple tiers including Selection (premium) and Waves (standard) categories. The Paraíso Complex in Riviera Maya houses 5 interconnected resorts with shared facilities.
Iberostar offers exceptional cross-property dining access across its Cancún and Riviera Maya portfolio. Guests staying at Iberostar Selection Cancún and Iberostar Selection Coral Cancún (adults-only) enjoy full reciprocal access to each other's restaurants and facilities, as they share the same resort complex in Cancún. Additionally, both Cancún properties grant guests access to the entire Paraíso Complex in Riviera Maya (approximately 30 minutes south), which includes Iberostar Selection Paraíso Lindo, Iberostar Selection Paraíso Maya, Iberostar Waves Paraíso Beach, Iberostar Waves Paraíso del Mar, Iberostar Waves Tucan, and Iberostar Waves Quetzal. Access to JOIA Paraíso by Iberostar (adults-only luxury property) and Iberostar Waves Cozumel is also available, though Cozumel requires a 45-minute ferry ride from Playa del Carmen. Reservations are required for à la carte restaurants at all properties, and guests should note that Iberostar does not provide shuttle service between Cancún and Riviera Maya properties – guests must arrange their own transportation (approximately $65-75 USD each way via private shuttle). The newly opened Iberostar Selection Riviera Cancun near Puerto Morelos does not currently participate in the cross-property dining program. Despite the transportation logistics, this extensive dining exchange program significantly expands culinary options, potentially giving guests access to 30+ restaurants and dozens of bars across the resort network.
