Nice quiet resort!

This was our fifth visit to Cuba (first time in Varadero). We chose this resort for its value and its proximity to the golf course as we wanted to golf during our stay. It is a nice resort that is very quiet, not busy and has mostly middle aged couples. It was just the relaxing time we were looking for. Our room was spacious and clean. The grounds were well kept. The beach was beautiful and the pool was refreshing. The staff were friendly and helpful. Every request we had was accommodate [... read more]d. We anticipated that the food would be just OK, even for Cuban standards, so we were not disappointed. We always found something to eat and enjoyed the omelettes in the morning and the burgers at the Beach Grill during the day. Our dinner at the Italian a la carte and the Beach Grill a la carte were very enjoyable. Overall our stay was very good. The food is mediocre, but at long as you go with that understanding, you will not be disappointed with this resort. It is good value for money.

Dissappointing given the rating and reputation 'Breezes' has.

The hotel was average. The grounds were just being cleaned up during our stay. There was a lot of undeveloped areas on the property. The food was bland and not creative. The staff although nice people but not well trained in the service field.

A great place to unwind!

My daughter and I took a short holiday to Veradero staying at Breezes. We spent the week playing tennis, swimming in the pool and ocean, sun bathing, snorkelling, chatting, bingo, trivia, eating, drinking, reading, playing cards and just relaxing. The accommodations were spacious and clean. The service was outstanding and so friendly. We enjoyed the restaurants, the coffee bar (got hooked on the Jamaican coffee) and the entertainment (especially the band at the lobby bar). We met some wonder [... read more]ful people that I know we'll stay in touch with. It's a welcoming and a very comfortable place to be.

What friendly staff and tourists !

The Breezes Varadero is beautiful and very clean. Our room was spotless with a nice view form the third floor. What a week at the beach, above outdoor temperature almost every day and the ocean was very calm each day, green flag and practically no rain. Yes, all staffs were nice and friendly but especially other tourists. Since all LIVE entertainment were cancelled due to Castro's death, we end up meeting lost of tourists. If you a a fish eater like my wife, you were in heaven. The rest of the f [... read more]ood was just ok. Yes, we are planning to return to Cuba in December 2017.

Just right!!

The layout of the hotel/grounds was great. Beach was beautiful with a long shoreline. Most of the food was good, you just had to choose what you like. Some plates actually very good. Transport to and from very organized. Service okay.

Breezes Stay

This resort is beautiful nestled on a lovely beach. Enjoyed meeting people while night of karaoking. I found the water pressure very low when attempting to use warm water and the staff not responsive.

Loved the food

This was our first time to cuba and we were told that the food sucks! I thought this resort had a good select of food at the buffet, good enough to last a full week and not get too sick of it. We had 3 other options for dinning but you had to book for them. Lunch options were a buffet or a bbq that had hotdogs and hamburgers and the main chef there Hector was a fantastic guy. Overall this place is great. If I could change one thing it would be to have better activities throughout the day to get  [... read more]people involved. All activities they had going had very limited people participating. Could of just been the people that were there...not sure.

Great time

Having been there several times we love returning to the breezes and we particularly love the staff. They always make the effort to remember you and go out of their way to make you feel at home. I like the proximity to the golf course. When there is an issue they are very quick to correct it and always with a smile. .

Great resort, bad food.

Hotel and grounds are great. Staff is awesome as always. The food was always cold and really bad. Breakfast was OK since it,s hard to spoil an omelette. Potatoes, brussel sprouts, vegetables, all cold.

Excellent Resort

The most enjoyable part of my stay was the interaction with staff. Everyone was friendly and went out of their way to satisfy any needs or concerns. The 2 bedroom suite we had was very comfortable and the cleaning staff kept the unit clean and fresh. Food was very good, they have a new chef, a lot of Cuban dishes mixed in with typical Canadian dishes. All in all excellent value for the cost and I plan to make many more trips to this resort in the future.

Great Resort but needs maintenance and better food.

Cuba was great yet again, this was my second time at this resort. This resort has amazing staff,pool,beach,bars and over all atmosphere. I do have some feedback. 1.The food is horrible. Barely eatable. While I understand they are catering to European and north american tourist its not done well. The Cuban THEME day food was AMAZINGGGGGG. 2. The maids who come by the room in the morning about 8am are extremely loud. They have full conversations with each other and don't care if guests are as [... read more]leep. 3. We stayed in room 623 and it smelled horrible upon entry. very musty. ( the mop used to clean the room left a horrible smell each day) 4. There were roaches. 5. The bathroom ceiling was leaking, bathroom lights were leaking water .Ceiling looked like it would fall at any moment. We brought this up to management and they sent someone to fix it in 30 mins. which was a band-aid on the situation to be honest. The bathroom was poorly cleaned. otherwise we had a great time.

Great resort

Very friendly, accommodating staff. Relaxed atmosphere. Beach goes on forever. Large selection at buffet, many other options with private restaurants and beach bbq. Food is not as at home but its Cuba. A few minor problems with room. They were quick to respond.

Awesome place and people resort for relaxing and having fun.

the resort was very clean and the food was very good. big rooms and plenty to do around the resort. place to see and do things. the beach very clean and the water warm and clear. the people ready to do anything for you to make your stay a happy and full of fun.

A must return

Absolutly beautiful grounds. Great beach great staff nice room and services We would go back again. The food was ok lots of choices but not enough fresh vegetables. No lettuces. We had only 2days on the beach swimming because the waves were too high. We really appreciated the security. Love the town.

We had a great stay!

We enjoyed our stay at Breezes Varadero. The staff were very friendly and helpful, the grounds were beautiful. We tried out all three a la carte restaurants and we were not disappointed. We would definitely go back and stay with Breezes again in the future!

A relaxing week away

A wonderful vacation. It has a beautiful beach where we spend the majority of our days. A clean hotel with friendly staff. The food was fine, nothing too exciting to eat, but we were always able to find something we liked. I recommend the beach BBQ for dinner. It has a lovely view of the ocean while eating delicious BBQ chicken, pork or fish. Lots of bars and drinks to choose from, and also a coffee bar which we visited every night for a speciality coffee. We would go back to Breezes Vara [... read more]dero

Our home away from home

This is a fantastic boutique style hotel, which my Mom and I have enjoyed staying at for the second time now. We love the smaller size of this resort, the attention to detail, the cleanliness, and the friendly and accommodating staff. This adults only resort has everything we need, and we believe it's a real gem in Varadero. We like the fact that this hotel feels very "Cuban" and has lush beautiful grounds and gardens. The beach always has ample chairs and shady spots, towels are always fresh an [... read more]d in good condition, and in our opinion, the food is very decent by Cuban standards. We can always find something to eat and we're never hungry. The only suggestion we would have is that the food could be even more simply prepared, to appeal to a wide variety of palettes, we think the keep it simple theory would not only make things easier on the chefs but also appeal more to the guests. Just an observation that we had. The baked goods are to die for (my favourite), cheeses and pickles and antipasto is always something I look forward to. If possible, more fish and possibly chicken would be amazing as I don't eat pork. We think for breakfast and even for dinner the omelet station and carving station are such a hit, that why not serve less sides, and double the amount of staff working those areas to speed up the lines.

Fair Resort

Me and my boyfriend went for five days to relax and enjoy each other and the resort. The public theme was quite nice and clean. The variety of food was good but the quality was not so good. The food was the least favorable of all and there weren't premium drinks to enjoy. Over all we both enjoyed the garden view and the friendly staff.

Good time

Food was good .....beach was amazing ... The people there friendly....My Only complaint was my room did not have hot water for the entirety of my trip ...later found out that half of the resort depending where your room was located did not have hot water ....
