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 — Sanctuary Cap Cana, a Luxury Collection Resort

• Beach conditions are less consistently praised than the resort grounds, pools, service, and food.
• Some guests report restaurant-access friction, limited evening buffet options, or inconsistent specialty dining.
• Nightlife is present but not a major strength for travelers seeking a lively all-night scene.
• Value can vary significantly by rate; Marriott points redemptions may not always be efficient.
