Playa Pesquero

Unfortunately we were looking forward to our return, as last February 2018 Due to circumstances we could not come. Hopefully we will be together again soon ? Prayers are with all our Cuba Families

Unfortunately canceled

Unfortunately night before leaving February 10th all flights to Cuba were canceled and now we are waiting for our full refund. Sadly due to Elizabeth's age of 80 she was so looking forward to this vacation. And with increased prices for Dominican and Mexico this won't be possible Wishing safety and good health to all our Cuban friends. Until we can be together again. Always in our thoughts and prayers ?

CAN'T WAIT TO GO BACK!

Beautiful place, beautiful people

We’ve been to this resort many times. This visit we treated ourselves to the Luxury section. We have never been so pampered and cared for. The staff and management are warm and attentive. Because the Luxury section is smaller in size we were able to really get to know the staff and this was one of the best and memorable parts of this visit. The food was delicious. The room was spacious and clean. The grounds were expectable. We cannot wait to go back.

Great week in Playa Pasquero

For the price this resort offers great value. The pool and the beach were why we went and they were exceptional. The grounds were beautiful and the staff were very responsive and friendly The food supply was constrained but the resort did their best to serve decent meals. It wasn’t the best but we could always find something reasonable to eat.

Everything was fine - dont listen to panicked people

Everything about the hotel was fine; great beach, we did snorkeling, swimming, aqua-gym. The buffet was fine too comparable to a 4 star in Cuba in the previous year. There was not a very great choice of food, but we always managed, as a family of 4, to get good meals. The restaurants were fine, especially the Italian one, with a great tomato soup and beef. We did not have access to sea food however, except white fish. We did a lot of swimming and playing in the pool. I really dont understand oth [... read more]er comments here that almost made us cancelled our trip. It was FINE (for Cuba). The staff was great. We didnt go much out late at night but there wasnt much animation (that I was aware of), rather low but good animation (man at piano, singer, small band). Lot of family with kids, older persons 55+. There was animation at one side of the great long pool, but if you go to the other side it was most peacefull. We enjoyed the coffee wagon at the lobby.

Newbies: Read This!

We've been travelling to Cuba almost every year for almost 40 years and Playa Pesquera certainly is the resort I like the least. Let's stick to the facts, not my likes and dislikes. This is a snapshot of my week there in early February, 2026. The Air Canada Vacations Rep was Missing (Inaction). The orientation meeting was very poorly done. Misinformation on tours and no orientation to the grounds at all. This is a huge resort and it is easy to get lost (especially at night). Signage was poor. [... read more] Washrooms not marked or not marked with men/women. The food was poor but this is not a complaint. We ate much better than the average Cuban. Fish Beach has no fish. Cuba is surrounded by water and there was no fish. They did have lots of tinned sardines however. Luckily at the hotel the liquor, wine and beer flowed freely. The week we were there, large groups of family and friends arrived and took over the hotel. The noise levels in the common areas was intolerable. Wild children ran freely! Members of the hotel Facebook page do not always tell facts and can actively gaslight dissidents . They also tend to be rude to anyone who disagrees with them. The grounds of the hotel are attractive and well-kept. The workers are helpful and pleasant. The hotel pool is expansive with lots of palapas to keep you shaded. The same goes for the beach although it is rocky in places. The hotel allows smoking in common areas. Remember non-smoking seats on planes? Music provided was mostly American. No big show. Actually there might have been but we have no way of knowing. Remember, no signage.

Food expectations were low, but it was far worse than expected

First off, the layout of the buffet is very unorganized. The second the buffet opens, everyone rushes the place and the giant lineups begin. While those are in line waiting for freshly made food, others have to cut in and gather in swarms to take from the pre-made pans. Who thought this layout would be a good idea?! The food was not good. The reviews that state everything is perfect and nothing is missing is certainly not true. People who were not even present at the resort were commenting on t [... read more]he good quality and selection of food without even being there. Just because you were once there and the food was decent then, doesn't mean it's the same today. The weather was great, the pools were nice and the beach is beautiful but the food that was available was terrible and unappealing. I will not be returning to this resort nor would I recommend.

Very bad

Not recommended to go there No food no fruits Very bad condition in there facilities They have no towels for their room The bed has bead bugs The food that was served in the lunch time was was served at dinner again

Playa pesquero

Unfortunately, this vacation was far from the experience that was advertised and paid for. We encountered multiple serious issues throughout our stay, which significantly impacted our health, comfort, and overall enjoyment of the trip. These issues included, but were not limited to: • unsanitary room conditions / insects / filthy mattresses, bed sheets were so worn and so filthy you cannot imagine • lack of food options / poor food quality for the whole period we never had a single fruit o [... read more]r vegetable. Only noodle soup rise and bins, people either were fighting over an boiled egg or they had to wait in lines for 20 min each time.Miserable. • we were 14 people and all of us came back hungry and the body full of insects bites. We are taking treatment(oral treatment) for the insect situation we had in Cuba • services or amenities not available as advertised absolutely ridiculous how you advertise such a resort

Avoid at all costs

I am writing to formally express my deep disappointment with the vacation package we purchased through Sunwing for our stay at Playa Pasquero from December 30 to January 6. We were a group of 14 people. What was meant to be a relaxing holiday turned into an extremely unpleasant and uncomfortable experience due to multiple issues at the 5* resort..... From the moment we arrived, the service at the hotel was far below acceptable standards. We had to drag our luggage's ourselves to the room, [... read more] which was on the other site of the resort. Our sheets were never changed throughout the stay, and the towels were also not replaced despite repeated requests, and daily tips to the staff.. We had to go to the lobby daily to request water... the fridge was always empty. The room conditions were unacceptable, with a significant mosquito infestation and even signs of bed bugs, which made it difficult to sleep or feel comfortable in the space. We have pictures of the mosquito bites.. The food situation was equally concerning. The quality was extremely poor, with leftovers from lunch being served again at dinner. Over the course of seven days, we did not see a single fresh vegetable offered. Breakfast was chaotic, with tourists literally fighting over eggs due to lack of availability and poor organization. This is not the level of service or quality advertised, nor what we expected when booking with Sunwing. Overall, the experience fell drastically short of the standards promised, and it certainly did not reflect the value we paid for this trip.

Stay Away

My daughter and I were there over Christmas holidays, and we were so disappointed. I had been there 3 times prior and enjoyed the experience. We were given a sub par room, no working phone, no thermostat adjustment to AC, room very musty and humid, signs of water damage. Spent 3-4 hours convincing front desk to move us. They did not show must interest. Swimming pool was green, grounds of resort unkept and broken down in a lot of areas The food was horrible, fatty pork, beans and plain pasta. [... read more] No fruits or vegtables. Lots of empty buffet containers. They do not replace when empty. Stale dried out buns and bread. No butter, salt, pepper, no mustard at times. Tiny paper napkins maybe at table. La Pippa 24hour restaurant, only hot dog on white bread...nothing else. Al a Carte was not what was on the menu. You were given two choices, cheapest poor quality choices. Alcohol was Havana Club, not much else. No mixes except slushy sugar water or tonic. The beach and ocean were beautiful and most of the staff were very Kind. Entertainment staff don't do much but dance at side of pool, worst I have ever seen. Evening shows were dismall, nobody in the seats watching.

Cuba at its best

When going to Cuba, you go to enjoy the ocean, snorkeling, weather and hospitality of Cuban people. I must say we got it all with this resort. The resort is safe for kids to run around, to get ice cream and snacks. Entertainment team is amazing at creating a holiday like atmosphere. They are great with kids of all ages, and it allows parents to relax as well. Rooms are clean, AC works well, no issues with water or electricity. Food is minimal at this time, however we were not hungr [... read more]y. It is our third time at the resort and we are planning to go back. It is just an hour away from the airport. Wi-fi works great, even at the beach.

Very good resort

Well maintained. Best beach I saw so far anywhere. Room is good and has everything required. Room cleaning is regular and well done. Personnel is friendly. Multiple activities are available. Food variety is acceptable also it was shortage of the vegetables. In short - I would definitely come back next time.

Amazing hotel!

Nadejda and Valeri. We just returned home. This was our sixth visit to this hotel. As always, I'd like to highlight the wonderful attitude of all the staff towards guests; you feel like you're home among family. The beach is beautiful, the ocean is stunning. It rained a lot this season, so there were a lot of mosquitoes. We've never seen so many in Cuba. Cuba is a tropical country where you can grow many crops, but unfortunately, the hotel had a lot of meat dishes, but no fruit, only watermelo [... read more]n and, rarely, bananas. The only vegetables were cucumbers and peppers. We've been to Cuba about 30 times, but now we're thinking it's time to switch to another Caribbean destination to have some fruit and vegetables on the menu; it's impossible to eat only meat dishes for two weeks. Once again, we'd like to thank the service staff. October 7-21.

Great Resort

The resort was beautiful, well-maintained, and had a very relaxed, welcoming atmosphere. The staff were friendly and always helpful, making sure we felt comfortable throughout our stay. The beach was absolutely stunning, with clear water and soft sand, and there were plenty of activities for both kids and adults. Our rooms were clean and spacious, and everything we needed was taken care of. Overall, we had a great family getaway and created some unforgettable memories. We would definit [... read more]ely recommend this resort to other families looking to relax and enjoy a tropical escape.

Amazing hotel!

In April we came to this hotel for the 5th time. We like everything there: wonderful staff, beautiful ocean, clean beach. This year there were a lot of fruits and vegetables, but most of all we liked the artists in the lobby: saxophonist, pianist, singers. We thank everyone who made our holiday unforgettable. In this hotel it is impossible to single out someone personally, because everyone works perfectly.

Beautiful and friendly Resort

Everything is included in your stay....food, drink etc. given by world class service by the friendliest people. Beautiful pools with a swim up bar, beautiful beach with hobbi cats and paddle boats at your command. Large suites with sitting area sofa, chairs coffee table desk as well as a comfortable king bed. And a private lanai with lawn chairs also included. At the asking there's a small taxi service to transport you around the resort. I highly recommend this resort !

Pleasant Resort

My thoughts about this hotel: spacious, clean and green, service available any time, staff very pleasant thru out. Several restaurants at ones choice, very good cappuchino. Lovely sitting area near a fountain and bar for coffee or alcohol.
