Memories Paraiso: AMAZING

The beach was absolutely beautiful !!!! I would recommend this resort to anyone. Talk about bang for your buck!! The locals are very friendly and the food was fair. The only recommendation would be more music on resort.

Resonance Blu Varadero: nice resort

the resort was clean and well taken care of,the beach was fantastic. The resort was a little large for walking to and from the 1 buffet at that front of the resort everyday a couple times and never found a 24hr snack bar anywhere. The pools are beautiful but could use a little more cleaning after windy days as many tree's are around them.

Sol Turquesa Beach: Great resort

Very clean well kept resort. Friendly staff. Beautiful pools. Excellent entertainment. Food was decent. Crazy Canadian drinks and cappuccinos were amazing. There are a few mosquitoes and lots of walking. Shuttle is available around the resort but they are limited. Be sure to bring mosquito spray for the evenings

Resonance Blu Varadero: Fantastic vacation!

Beautiful Resort with the friendliest staff! Rooms and facilities were clean and well organized. Nice beach and pool area with lots of chairs. We found the best part of this resort the wonderful staff that work there, all very friendly and always willing to help make your vacation better. Would recommend!

Memories Flamenco Beach Resort: Great resort

The resort is well managed. The grounds are beautiful with lots of flowers and kept very clean. The food was good, well prepared and presented. The new beach was amazing, lots of space so it never feels crowded. Very comfortable and friendly.

Sol Turquesa Beach: Memories Holguin

Service was outstanding. Very kind people. Food was nicely presented and was diverse and good. But: We were not told that the beach is not suitable for swimming. We were not told that we have to climb/ descend over 60 stairs six times or more a day to reach the dining room and other services. Our agent knew we were seniors. The trolley service was inadequate, long waiting times with often one trolley for over 500 rooms to serve. And: The noise level was n [... read more]ot consistent with a **** Hotel. Everywhere loudspeakers, sometimes you could hear three different ones at some location. Even very loud music at the beach. The worst was the noise level at night with drunken patrons yelling and keeping us awake for several nights.

Sol Turquesa Beach: Good value, lots of fun

Food was best we've had in Cuba, a bit repetitive but good. The buffet and beach/cuban restaurants being not closed in had birds and cats wandering around. Wasnt too serious , a few bird droppings and the odd cat rubbed your leg looking for food. Restaurant staff were excellent, always right there for drinks and clean up etc. Very friendly people in general. Rooms did the job but we're needing some updating. They had some unrepaired water damage. Doors were tight against the floor. Plum [... read more]bing was down for 2 hours one day but otherwise as good as home. Grounds are beautiful with lots of mature trees and plants. Built on a hill side overlooking the ocean. That makes it beautiful but creates lots of stairs and beach is at the bottom but lobby, buffet and theatre are at the top. We had rooms in the 100 block so close to the main areas which worked well, just spent the day at the beach so did the trek only once a day. Water sports were great, we'll organized easy to get equipment and guides when needed. Beach never felt crowded but is not very big. You can still explore beyond the hotel beach but is rough and rocky against water. A few locals fish and camp right beside hotel we made friends with some and was good. Was told a number of times by locals that this was the worst beach at Holguin area but it was fine. We had young kids with us and they had a good time, lots of friendly staff that took an interest in them always stopping to give them high 5s and chat. Never used the kids club but looked good. Lots of bars spread out over the resort. Entertainment was pretty good overall. They try really hard. Pools really pretty and good. Always felt really safe and looked after. Compared to home there are lots of hazards around like no hand railing, path lighting not working, uneven ground etc but that's kind of standard in Cuba. As usual most of the problems were other tourists, always rude and selfish people from all countries. There were lots of French speaking Canadians and lots of Europeans mostly Polish. I'd say only a third of guests were English. Most staff are pretty good with English and French. Sunwing was good, transfer is long but very interesting countryside so didn't mind the ride.

Memories Flamenco Beach Resort: Relaxing

Grounds were very well kept... Beautiful plants and flowers everywhere. Gardeners and all workers were very friendly. Pool area was well maintained and very clean. Beach was stunning with lots of chairs available. Rooms were quite outdated and some bugs. Sheets and towels had quite a lot of stains. Overall for the price this resort was good value for the price.

Memories Paraiso: Great week!

Recently my friend and I stayed at this resort for the first time. We had a great week. The resort is so much bigger than we thought, which is great! The market is lovely, great for people who doesn't feel totally comfortable leaving the resort to go to little shops. The grounds were kept very clean, no garbage anywhere. The staff was so nice and helpful when we needed anything. The beach and the pool were great and always kept clean! The food is okay, we always found food to eat but found that  [... read more]it didn't keep us full for very long, LOVED the BBQ by the beach! Overall it was a great experience, would definitely recommend this resort to anyone.

Memories Flamenco Beach Resort: Great relaxing resort

Was at the Memories Flamenco Beach Cayo Coco from Jan 18-25th 2017. With a beautiful week of warm weather and 5 days of light winds, my wife and I have nothing but fine things to report on. Great size, very accessible, and a beach that made you want to walk on and swim in all day. Resort has everything an older couple needs and wants for to relax. If you want quiet and peaceful, then go here.

Memories Caribe Beach Resort: Wonderful resort

This resort was beautiful. This was everything that we wanted for our 10th anniversary trip. The grounds were beautiful, the staff attentive, the rooms clean. The nightly entertainment was amazing, as well as the daytime entertainment. The beach was great, sand fleas were a bother but we have them on beaches in Nova Scotia, not a deal breaker, great pool area. The only downside of the rooms was no door on the bathroom.

Memories Flamenco Beach Resort: Great place for a holiday

This resort exceeded our expectations in almost every area. We were told that Cuban resorts were somewhat behind other countries and and not to expect as much as Mexico or other warm spots. We were told the food is bland and of poorer quality and the lodging is older and not maintained well. We found that the food was absolutely fantastic and had lots of variety, the buildings and rooms were not new but very well maintained and the beaches were the best I have ever been on. One thing that we [... read more] were told that was very true is that the people of Cuba are so friendly and warm and bend over backwards to please you. We had a great holiday and would highly recommend this resort to anyone

Resonance Blu Varadero: Great resort!

We were extremely happy with our stay at Memories in Varadero. Our room was always neat and clean; we had fresh towels every day and our room was in the perfect location. The lobby is large and there is always something happening there with people to watch. The whole resort is well kept with beautiful landscaping and wonderful palapas on the beach. I especially loved the mojito bar!! What a great idea!! Probably the best thing of all was the fact that there were always lots of lounges arou [... read more]nd the pool and we did not have to worry about running out early in the morning to save a chair. The Japanese restaurant was fabulous. I would love to go there again.

Memories Jibacoa: Lovely Vacation

Great resort ! Grounds, pool, rooms, beach were clean and beautifully maintained. Service was exceptional! Highly recommend this resort. Smaller resort close to Havana and Varadaro. Lots of activities to participate in if you choose to. Quiet adults only resort. Snorkelling was very good. Can't say enough about the staff !!

Memories Flamenco Beach Resort: Great Memories at Flamenco Beach Resort!

This was one of the best resorts we have stayed in, in Cuba. We have been to different parts of Cuba 11 times and we had the most beautiful room in this resort. The location was great, third floor overlooking the pools, close to the beach and lobby & buffet. The resort and grounds are very well-kept and clean, including public washrooms decorated with fresh-cut flowers every day. The food at the buffet and restaurants was very good and varied. The staff was so friendly and helpful. They  [... read more]could not do enough for us. A special thank you to Marlene at Customer Service for all her special help and attention. The beach is long and beautiful but we were disappointed that there was not much off-beach snorkeling. Nevertheless we will certainly go back to this wonderful place!

Royalton Splash Punta Cana: Fun times!

My family and I just got back from a vacation at memories splash Punta Cana and we had a great time! My three-year-old absolutely love the facilities and we were fairly pleased with the experience! Lots of choice at the buffet and no lineups for the restaurant & easy to get cots in high season! Staff was very responsive him we were fairly pleased!

Sol Turquesa Beach: Great Hotel

This was our third time to this resort.It just keeps getting better. Spotless lobbys,grounds and rooms.The check-in was suppose to be expedited as we chose diamond club upgrade,didn't happen we were the last to get through and at 2:30 am with two small children it was upsetting.The only thing that we really seen different with diamond club was the designated area on the beach were you got softer loungers,and super bar service by Orland the keeper of the Bar.The food was great by Cuba standards , [... read more]beef still chewy but if you've been to cuba we know that.Cuban alacarte was best.Buffet ok,you line up to get your main thing and it is cooked for you at all meal times,if you don't like lineups go early.The 24 hr bar serves a breakfast from a menu and serve you,I liked it the best.The staff here are awsome and make your stay enjoyable.Lots of stairs and walking 16000 fitbit steps a day but they do have golf carts if you don't mind a small wait as they can get busy delivering people .The entertainment was great bands and shows and the biggest thing for me was my grandson got to touch meet Toupee and Binoo at the kids show.They also loved going to the kids club every day at their insistence.For 30 pesos you can rent a vintage car to take you into Guardalavaca and pick you up for the return journey ,5 passengers.The beach is great, sandy with weedy spots but you can wend your way out to were you want to be.All in all this is a great place to go in Cuba for the cost its good value.

Sol Turquesa Beach: A huge 2.5 star

This resort was huge in size but did not have some basics you would expect like hot water. 1 Every single vacationer we met showered for the week in either very cold water or just cold water. When people called about the issue they were told, "We know nobody has hot water." 2 We have been to Cuba 12-14 times over the years so we know what to expect with quality/quantity regarding food and this resort's food was by far the worst we have ever come across. 3 The 'Lifeguards' were a joke! The most  [... read more]inattentive I've EVER seen. They literally spent 90% of their shift sitting BEHIND the beach bars visiting with bar/beach staff. 4 The place is over run with feral cats/kittens. I'm the opposite of a cat person and I felt bad for them. Many are sickly, underweight and several had multiple scars and/or parts of their tails, ears and paws missing. 5 We realize the booze is not top shelf.....tried a few times to have a drink but it literally tasted like hairspray. Not sure what the deal is with several bartenders having gym bags full of bottles of rum tucked away behind the huts?? 6 The pool areas are invested with fleas.....I could go on but what's the point. We will never go back. We expected better from a Memories resort.

Memories Flamenco Beach Resort: Beautiful Resort

The grounds immaculate. Beach incredible. Rooms very nice as well. The activity staff best I've seen. Great place for families with young children. The staff gets them involved in games. Had a great time here.

Sol Turquesa Beach: good value for the money.

Grounds and rooms were clean. many pools. Food was ok. Diamond extra was good for the service at the beach and later check out...but not good for checking in....waited over an hour with litle kids and it was 11 pm. Many people had problems with door cards not unlocking their doors ..
