Iberostar Waves Costa Dorada - All Inclusive
The property is nice but a little older than anticipated. It is very well maintained. Staff was very nice and will to help with any situation especially Perla and Migel. Perla was an angel. We would have loved more Dominican dishes and some ginger ale as a soda option.
