Pros — Iberostar Selection Anthelia

  • Excellent beachfront Costa Adeje location with direct access to Fañabé Beach and the promenade.
  • Very strong guest sentiment for staff, service, cleanliness, and food.
  • Extensive pool setup, including saltwater, freshwater, and children's pools with slides and pirate-ship features.

Pros — Meliá Punta Cana Beach Wellness Inclusive

  • Adults-only beachfront setting on Bávaro Beach.
  • Strong wellness identity with yoga, fitness, spa, meditation-style programming, and Wellbeing 360 positioning.
  • Four pools, YHI Spa, six restaurants, seven bars, tennis, golf access, and The Level premium areas.
  • Remote-work evidence is stronger than average for a resort because Expedia lists free in-room Wi-Fi and laptop-friendly workspaces.

Cons — Iberostar Selection Anthelia

  • Some rooms and decor can feel dated compared with newer five-star Tenerife resorts.
  • This is a large, family-friendly resort, so it may not suit travelers seeking an adults-only or boutique atmosphere.
  • Several specialty restaurants are not included in all board types, so inclusions can be confusing without checking the booked plan.
  • The beach is convenient and swimmable, but the resort experience is stronger than the beach itself for travelers seeking a remote, pristine shoreline.

Cons — Meliá Punta Cana Beach Wellness Inclusive

  • Food and service consistency varies by guest source.
  • The resort footprint can create longer walks or reliance on carts.
  • The Level upgrade receives much better guest sentiment than some standard-room feedback, so base-category stays may feel different.
  • Some recent complaints mention room maintenance, restaurant organization, and paid Bali-bed policies.
