Judy and
 Maria's
First Impression of the Iberostar Tucan Resort
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.
