Breezes Bahamas: Run down
The resort needs alot of repair and it feels more like a teenage hang out with cheap drinks and basic food more than a resort. The beach is beautiful and the trapeze is fun but I'm sure you can get these elsewhere.
Hotel Bella Costa: Best Cuban Resort
This was my third time in Cuba and the third resort. The best so far. Public washrooms were clean and always had toilet paper. Good food. Pizza bar is great and was well used by us. Beach is amazing with lots of shade available. The hotel rooms were a little dated but for Cuba, they were great. Front desk staff left a lot to be desired. Were not friendly at all. The waitstaff were amazing though. Entertainment was good. Nice and close to town if you want to leave the resort. I would go back.
Jewel Runaway Bay Resort: outstanding!
My husband and I just returned from our vacation to The Jewel Runaway Bay to celebrate our first anniversary. The whole resort was wonderful from the staff, to the food, entertainment and the hotel itself. I loved that our shower had 6 shower heads, so awesome! Make sure to visit Clive at the arts and crafts hut to buy a painting, he's got so much talent. He personalized a painting for my husband and I and it's already got a spot on a wall here at home to remind us of our time there. Also the sn [... read more]
Breezes Bahamas: Excellent beach and location ~ hotel not so much!
Stayed there for 3.5 days to attend the Junkanoo Carnival, which was amazing by the way! Staff on the resort well unfortunately they do cater more towards the locals staying there and you feel 2nd class due to this: Requests were not met as promised and repeating the request over and over again for items like a blow dryer (which is stated as in room) was not received. Food was very good for this resort, Beach AMAZING! Felt very safe in Bahamas and will be back just not to this hotel.
Breezes Bahamas: Definitely some Pros & some Cons!
Prior to booking this trip, I had read that the hotel had some recent upgrades/refurbished. The hotel itself is old and dated and needs a face lift. There were some small issues with the room (shower head did not work and the t.v. didn't work well) however the room was clean, towels were readily available and the beds were comfortable. The food at this resort was FANTASTIC! I haven't had food this good at a resort in any of my travels. So much variety, hot and tasty. Above all, the staff were so [... read more]
Breezes Bahamas: A bit dated
The Breezes resort is very close to the airport and an average hotel at best. The price was right however and the original room we booked was dated we upgraded to a beach front, walk out room which was great. The service from the restaurants, (Ricky you are amazing!) pool area (Rashad we miss you!) and maid service was great, very friendly. Front desk staff was very slow to accommodate or get to your request (for example we had a fire alarm that went off every night all night and although we rep [... read more]
Memories Jibacoa: terrific resort
everything was great, rooms, service, food was great, also entertainment every day and night, beaches and snorkeling were awesome, great pool with activities every day, also mountain climbing and tennis with lessons
Memories Jibacoa: This one is definitely a go back place.
The most amazing thing was the snorkeling. No arrangements, no extra costs, just get up out of your chair, don your gear and walk out. It was so entertaining. The resort is not too big so that getting around to the common areas were not a daunting task in the heat. The staff was of the friendliest we've experienced. The resort is close to where people actually live, so we could just walk out of the resort and go for a walk up the road and meet people. It does need a little bit of modernizing as [... read more]
Hotel Bella Costa: Awesome trip!
I had a really great time at breezes bella Costa. The rooms were not that luxurious, but it was clean and still decent. The resort isnt too big, so you dont have to walk long to get from your room to restaurants or pool/beach area. The beach was beautiful, i liked the papayas which gave you shade. For the a la carte restaurants i really liked the italian and japonese ones, the cuban one i didnt like, and the buffet was pretty good. we always found something good to eat. The omelets at the buffet [... read more]
Sunscape Curacao Resort: Great Resort
The sunscape hotel is an older hotel but it is well maintained and they have a lot of renovated areas that are nice. Our room in the 'royal tower' was beautiful. Very clean and most importantly the bed was very comfy! Always able to get chairs in sun or shade on the beach or by the many pools. Food was very good and liked that it was unlimited al la carte to any of the restuarants. Staff was very friendly and polite. Always lots to do as in activities but also able to relax in quiet areas. Snork [... read more]
Sunscape Curacao Resort: Great resort
The grounds were clean. The rooms were adequately clean. Received 7 bars of soap over the week but lacked in towels, toilet paper. The food was good, somewhat repetitious. Did not like the a la cartes. Too slow, too salty but service was good. For the price, I would go back
Hotel Bella Costa: Great Family Resort
This resort was very clean, lots of activities in the day and great shows at night. The food was quite tasty, especially the pizza. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Great resort for families.
Sunscape Curacao Resort: Great Resort
Everything was clean and kept up! Close to Mambo beach shopping and Sea Aquarium. Easy to get around town with local bus - $1.50 per person. Rooms were nice. In room safe was free and secure. No one expected a tip, but you were glad to give one for service. I would recommend this resort!! No reservations for a la carte, no wrist bands, no towels cards!
Hotel Los Cactus: Breezes
I have heard bad things about Cuba-bad weather, bad food, dirty resorts but not Breezes. Very clean, friendly staff (Orestes was great), quite good food and plentiful, HUGE room (707), great pool and of course the famous white sandy beach! Coffee was best at the bar. Rum plentiful and bar staff very fast. Would go again!
Hotel Bella Costa: Amazing Time A+++
Great staff, Great food and even better beach....plan on returning very soon. Thanks Rein for helping pick this resort as it was exactly what we needed and very kid friendly. Great times had by all.....
Hotel Los Cactus: Awesome trip
Beach was amazing, always loungers and palapas to be had. Can walk to varadero beach front which is nice too! I had no difficulty finding food. Usually when I go away I have a hard time eating but I was able to eat at every meal and have something so delicious. My boyfriend and I are in our mid 20's, we were definitely a minority there in terms of age But that alone had its perks. We were in c block and the room is bigger than our apartment at home. We had a lizard in our room last night. The [... read more]
Hotel Los Cactus: Great vacation
We had been to this resort in 98 and loved it then. We loved it all over again. Not too big, clean, friendly staff and good food and drinks. The beach is fabulous will go back. The only thing that would have made it better would have been better water pressure in the shower.
Hotel Los Cactus: Beautiful Resort
This older resort with gorgeous mature vegetation had a comfortable feel the minute we arrived. The staff is friendly and helpful. I am not celiac but have to eat a gluten free diet. I had no problem finding food at the buffet and the restaurants had choices without gluten. I am not a pool person. I thoroughly enjoyed the amazing beach everyday for two weeks. There seemed to be a few free beach chairs everyday no matter what time people arrived. We went early and stayed all day most days. My hus [... read more]
Hotel Bella Costa: Fun Resort everything is right there in the Resort

Would have been much better had not me & my husband both got sick , couldn't really eat or drink at all , so much for all inclusive !! :-(( Don't travel without Immodium !!!
Hotel Los Cactus: Nice resort with a fantastic beach!
An overall nice place to stay. Could use some updates in the Junior Suites as they were older and carried a musty smell, more so than the other accommodations. A/C didn't work the best. The in room safe was not secure and would open with a simple jiggle of the handle but friends said theirs was secure in the other accommodation area. The neighbour resort was rather loud in the evening if you are an early to bed kind of person, before midnight. I found the resort info was not accurate and could a [... read more]
