Absolute Dream Resort

Our vacation at Melia Cayó Coco was absolutely amazing. The grounds are beautiful. The resort common areas, restaurants, pool area, bathrooms and bar areas are extremely clean. Rooms are cleaned daily. The staff are very friendly. The ocean is incredible. The food was delicious. Food is available 24 hours a day. There is nightly entertainment. During the day there is dance lessons, games, Spanish lessons, billiard tables, tennis courts. There are plenty of loungers both at the pool and on the b [... read more]each. There is a little library. You can be as leisure or as active as you choose. I can’t wait to return!

Amazing Resort

Loved the smaller size, not a lot of walking to get to places. Adult only. Wide, long beach, white sand. Great for walks. Oceanview room. Great local entertainment. No shortages of food or drink. Great red wine and food A la cart restaurants. The best customer sercive!

Great value for money

Overall quite satisfied. The rooms were large and well maintained. No power , air conditioning or hot water issues. The food in the buffet was varied, plentiful and tasty. Assortment of salad and fruit available, as well chicken, beef , pork, and sometimes lamb, shrimp or calamari. Keeping in mind that you are not going to see steak and lobster at this price point. The a la cartes were good as well. The drinks were good. Good entertainment and excellent friendly service . Some minor shortag [... read more]es ( ran out of baileys after third day and limited choices late night in their 24 hour snack bar) , but really did not affect the quality of the stay. Fantastic beach, but the water a bit cold for my taste in January. I have paid way way more for a lesser experience in other places .

Beautiful resort

Could use a few improvements,, but overall one of the best resorts we have visited in Cuba over the last 40 years. The food was varied and plentiful. Entertainment was pretty good, definitely not a loud party place, which is what we were looking for on this trip.

Very nice resort

People were lovely, very happy and accommodating. Food was ok. Pretty cold most of the time sadly. Lots of food was absent like salad, veggies and eggs but we made due. Smoking was allowed beside the buffet entrance, absolutely ridiculous. Should be removed immediately. Pool was cold so we could not swim. Entertainment staff were wonderful, ones who do activities.

Great resort!

Hotel was well laid out, food was good, buffet had lots of food, no running out,big variety of alcohol.Entertainment was fantastic. All facilities were clean and working well. People were very friendly.

Wonderful restful resort

I did a female solo trip for the Christmas holidays. This is a lovely resort. I always felt safe. Clean, great staff, gorgeous beach you can walk for a long stretch. There was no shortage of food. Christmas special meals were lovely and everyone received a flower. Best of all was the peaceful relaxing feel you get while there. Many people I met had come for several years and the staff treat them like family. I would return any time.

No better resort out there.

Staff are all amazing people, very friendly and kind, well organized, they make your stay comfortable and safe. We have been to this resort 13 times now, and plan to go back again this March. Food is good, large selection of food every day. Gardeners do an amazing job throughout the resort. Activities on the beach good. Bathrooms are kept clean at all times. My score is a 10 out of 10 for this resort.

Nice quiet resort

Resort is smaller and quiet, not a a lot of activities, crowd is a bit older. Food was good for Cuba, staff friendly. Beach is very nice water was warm, one pool very large, tiles in the pool were a bit slippery. Not much for nighttime entertainment, nothing after 11pm

A week in paradise

This was our third visit to Melia Cayo Coco. We have been to other resorts in Varadero since our last visit here and still find this to be the best resort. The beach is wide, powdery and kept in great condition by the staff. The animation staff are lots of fun and make an effort to get to know the guests. The vibe is relaxed and the resort is not too big (250 rooms) so it never feels over crowded. In the evenings there is musical entertainment every night in the lobby followed by an evening [... read more] show. The bars are good and well stocked. The food is very good by Cuban standards (meaning they have supply issues beyond their control. They do a great job with what is available). We really enjoyed the International and Cuban a la carte restaurants.

Amazing hotel!

To be honest I fall in love with this hotel. Its a small hotel well taken care of. The food was excellent for Cuban standard. I liked all of the dinning restaurants and the entertainment in the main lobby.The beach is fantastic and I always found a empty lounge chair.Will definitely come back.Also I travel solo.

Anotherr Great Stay

12 great days with no rain until we were boarding the aircraft made this an even better trip. Having been a regular here for a few years we now are running into other couples who come here regularly because of the people who work here, well kept grounds and the resort as a whole. Hats off to Marco at the 24 hour this trip as he is very polite, quick and pays attention to detail. He is a great addition to the resort and will surely go places. Also glad to see everyone recovering from those  [... read more]nasty Cuban mosquito illnesses.

Excellent resort

From the time you check in to the time you check out, this is a very friendly, accommodating resort. The staff is awesome, and remember you from the previous year. The grounds are very user friendly, well kept and being a small resort, everything is easy to find and get around. Looking forward to another return visit, in the future.

Fabulous Week

Second time this year to this resort. Arrived at noon and was told a room was ready, but if we wanted to wait for this other particular room we could wait. We chose to wait, but appreciated the option to get a room upon arrival. Weather was fantastic. Service was excellent. The vegetable options were lacking this week, which is not normal. I didn't see carrot/onion the entire week, and cabbage and peppers only twice. It's not like they're hiding it in the back, it's just not available. This  [... read more]did not change our positive view of this hotel or this beautiful country. The food that was available was excellent, and thankful for the variety and the other options made available. The rooms at this resort are basic, but super smart layout and A/C worked well and hot water always available anytime of day. Public washrooms are incredibly clean and always stocked. We will definitely return!

Pleasant stay at the Melia Cayo Coco.

A Truly Exceptional Stay From the moment of arrival, the sheer beauty and meticulous upkeep of the resort grounds provided an immediate sense of serenity and luxury. Walking through the public areas was a delight; every space was thoughtfully designed, impeccably maintained, and exuded an atmosphere of sophisticated comfort. The commitment to excellence continued right into the private sanctuary of the rooms. These were not just accommodations, but havens of tranquility, featuring superb d [... read more]esign and spotlessly clean interiors that made relaxing effortless. Culinary experiences were clearly a highlight. The dining options were exceptional, offering delicious, high-quality cuisine with attentive service that elevated every meal from a necessity to a pleasure. Furthermore, the array of unique features and amenities available truly set this resort apart, adding layers of enjoyment and convenience to the entire vacation. This combination of outstanding facilities, flawless service, and beautiful surroundings ensured your stay was nothing short of extraordinary and truly exceptional in every regard

A true gem!, clean & relaxing resort

Just got back and from the start to the end, this resort speaks all about friendliness, relaxation, beautiful beach, quiet, wonderful food, a true gem. Was so impressed with how well maintained the grounds, landscaping, pool, buffet, beach all well maintained. Adult only resort much older crowd 50s to 70s, no loud music, or loud animation. However, on the beach shore, there were some floating plastic garbage, very important that tourists respect the beach and water, and not to polute. A [... read more]la carts and buffet all lots of great options, good tasting food, no shortages, white and red wines were great, Beer, coke snd bottled water, Rooms clean Other negative are mosquitos Less mosquitos in varadero but you need good insect spray otherwise lots of bites, bring calomine lotion. Overall, 8 out of 10 will consider going again

Highly Recommended

Melia Cayo Coco is a beautiful resort. The grounds are well-kept, the beach is free of seaweed and the rooms are cleaned daily. There are several bars and restaurants. There are plenty of lounge chairs at the pool and the beach. Staff are friendly and helpful.

Good Time

This hotel is really good, everyone is very friendly and we did not go without anything the whole time we spent here. Food and drinks were good, people were awesome and the hotel is very clean. No complaints!!

Great resort

It was an excellent week of relaxation/ the staff was wonderful the facility was small but well maintained and the food was good with lots of variety/the room was spacious and well equipped but a little tired with some of those typical issues you find in Cuba (like intermittent hot water)
