Club Amigo Atlantico Guardalavaca: Amazing place and people

Had a wonderful time. The place is amazing with a bazar right on the grounds. Easy to get around. The beaches are so beautiful and no complaints about the villas. Good food, good friends! Will definitely go back for a fourth time!!!!!

Club Amigo Atlantico Guardalavaca: Beautiful grounds!

I was in a villa from Jan 1 to 8 as well as last year in march. I loved the grounds,weather, beach. whatever was natural was beautiful. For whatever reason the rest is not: Room: Walls are chipped and then painted over. Nobody thought of fixing the wall before painting it? Drawer set did not have a single knob. To open drawer you had to be inventive. hair dryer did not work in the room. Tv did not work in the room. ( I complained at the reception and nobody ever came to fix it, I didn't bother [... read more] again as I don't watch TV ) Next: 24 hour restaurant .. is not really 24 hours. They will close it every evening for " specialty restaurant " and send you to the other restaurant. The other restaurant will just be closed at the same time anyways. You could walk up to a bar by the square pool and ask for fries, and be told that they don't have any fries. ( turns out they do, but don't want to fry only for you!!) My wife waited 15 minutes at the swim up bar to get a drink and she was the only one at the bar !! For some reason, the dude found it cool to ignore her..She was even calling him out loud.. head down and he kept looking at his sink doing dishes. Continuous lineups at the restaurant ( for whatever reason.. ) Once in there you'd see 8 or 10 tables free, but nobody cleaning them up, while the hostess doesn't let others in .. Couldn't understand that. I understand that 3 star is exactly 3 star and I didn't get bothered by these things, we had fun anyways. However I don't understand that some of these things which are easily correctable are not corrected or even inspected before guests are in the room.. Entertainment stuff does not follow their own schedule posted .. ( My niece wanted to play beach or pool volleyball ) but nobody was there. There was one day out of 7 where volleyball was played either at the pool or by the beach. Returning guests are supposed to get lobster dinner but even getting that was a hassle and you were made feel like you are asking for something for free when it's the resort who set the rule, I just wanted to take advantage of it. Locals will approach you on the beach to either offer drinks ( for a fee) or just plain beg money or things from you. If these things don't bother you, this is fantastic place! 4 pools, long beach, white sand, drinks included.. sun and palm trees.. perfect. This was the cheapest 3 star at the time.. and I'm not sure it's worth 1000$ per person in peak season even with all in.

Club Amigo Atlantico Guardalavaca: wonderfull resort

We had a great time, not one thing to say bad about resort, perveCT 2 weeks, everyday sunny vacation; can't wait to return; service was awesome. A variety of different foods, plenty of pools to choose from, all with snack bars to choose from. Highly recommended.

Starfish Varadero: fun time at Aguas

Lots of improvement at this hotel . Great food . Service was great . Management on site for the entire time we were there. We had lobster on 3 occasions . Maid service was slow . Lots Improvement needed in the public washrooms .

Carisol los Corales: Fantastic vacation!

A lovely resort, small but quaint with staff that go above and beyond to meet your needs. The snorkeling available at your fingertips made this one of our best vacations we've taken in Cuba. When not in the water, the view alone made it worth it. Our room, and the resort itself were spotless and very functional.

Starfish Varadero: very basic as tu get for investisement

Basic installations, same eating as basic and nothing better at restaurant ( better before five years ago) need to improvise at bouffet to have great lunch, drinks and shows wery apreciated, animators helping to have great playing times durings brakes times, take care about rainning days to planified outside attraction, nice beach and sports areas...be ready to enjoy and just do it !

Carisol los Corales: Great Value For Your Money

Resort is small and quaint! The beach is beautiful; however, quite rocky so don't forget to bring your water shoes. The resort has two complexes where you can swim and eat. Buffets are small due to size of resort and so is the selection of food. Helpful hint...eat dinner as soon as the buffet opens. Both al a cart restaurants where great and service was excellent. Minor issues....hotel only gives you one key per room and both the pools and hotel rooms are a bit dated. The nightly entertainment [... read more] is pretty good......a must see is the incredible fire show you will be in awe!! Overall, the accommodations, food options and age of the resort truely reflect 3 star rating that the resort has.

Club Amigo Atlantico Guardalavaca: Wonderfully Affordable Getaway

This is our second time at this resort we really enjoy the staff they are always friendly and helpful. There are many pool, restaurants and beaches to enjoy. If you like to shop the market is right across the street with some different vendors every day. We are looking forward to going back next year and booking again through trip central they have the most helpful staff.

Club Amigo Atlantico Guardalavaca: Amazing resort.

The resort was very nice, beautiful nature, people, food, beach, services and attractions. The celebration of the New Year was great and we had very good time. The A la cart restaurants were nice and the atmosphere was nice as well.

Club Amigo Mayanabo: Club Amigo Mayanabo Hotel Cuba

Hotel is very lovely has all activities , pleasant , lively, music, bars, very friendly staff, Cdn Entertainment Manager, Night shows daily, you pay $15 CUC, per beach towel as a deposit in case you lose, so a family of 3 would have to deposit $70 Cdn which you get back in CUCs and you have to spend there as they are not worth anything , like Cdn Tire money. The beach is nice , very quiet, has security guard near entrance at beach that watches your belonging all the time, Cuba is very safe no th [... read more]efts, even when you walk from one hotel to the other at night, controlled 24 - 7 , not like other countries where robberies occur. The rooms are old and musty but you only there to sleep, comfortable but sub standard. Rooms are cleaned ever day by staff and nicely stocked with new towels daily. Over all it is a good hotel for your buck and you can use the Brisas Hotel which is only walking distance 15 mins away down the beach. Food is plenty and always fresh. Breakfast , Lunch and Dinner is very nice and snack bar with Pizza and Ham sandwich is open 24 7 all night long. Open bar .

Carisol los Corales: Relaxing and Laid Back Resort

This is an older resort, which is at a bargain price. The view on the beach is great and the location is private and serene. It has its issues, but we had a good time. The rooms are very basic and the pillows are old, but the staff is nice and the beach is amazing.

Club Amigo Atlantico Guardalavaca: Friendly place to vacation

Grounds were very clean, staff friendly most spoke good english, food was good it is an older resort but well kept it is huge, it was my 2nd visit but first for my sister in Cuba very satisfying.The beach is superb.

Club Amigo Atlantico Guardalavaca: Excellent value

Stayed for 10 days of a family vacation with 2 kids and my parents over Christmas holidays. We stayed at the bungalow section which is well worth the upgrade. The good: Beautiful beach. Friendly staff. Food at the bungalow buffet restaurant was good, always something fresh on the grill, good pasta, great fresh fruit. A la carte restaurants were excellent as well, with excellent steaks and great fresh fish on the menu. The bad: Locals have access to the beach. Unfortunately, they leave such a mes [... read more]s of garbage behind, and the hotel does not keep up with picking it up. Its such a shame, because the beach is spectacular and its a shame on the locals not to respect their own gorgeous nature.

Club Amigo Atlantico Guardalavaca: Will not be going back

Very disappointing, My parents were there last year and could not say enough about this place. Sunwing Rep, Very Rude. She told me i know how to book a vacation, i guess you don't. I guess that would be not booking threw Sunwing. When you book a bungalow you should get a bungalow. Put us in a room with 2 cots and did not want to move us. If the hotel did anything for you they wanted you to pay more. To get one guy a band aid they wanted 10 pecos. Wow this place is not a place to go now. No towel [... read more]s for 2 days. Will not be going back. The locals at the beach would not leave us alone. Drinking and throwing their empty bottles, on the beach. Keep being inappropriate to my girlfriend, security did make them leave when she was on the grounds of the hotel and they were yelling at her for sexual acts.

Carisol los Corales: Nice place, could better...

We spent one week in los Corales with full access to Carizol. The location is OK with a sandy/rocky beach (~1 km) and a good snorkeling area between the beach and the reef. There was a lottery every day, where to go for lunch and dinner. The quality of service in the Corales and Carizol restaurants were unpredictable, between very good and below average. Sometimes the food selection and the quality of service were excellent. However, very often the food was barely warm, there were waiting lines  [... read more]for plates, tables were not cleaned up in time and so on. In my view smokers should be separated from non-smokers in the restaurant and lobby. They also should be educated about not leaving stinking cigarette butts in the sand and everywhere else. The resort management could do a better job with keeping local peddlers away from the resort beach area. I am not going to buy honey or a bottle of allegedly 15-years-old Rum Anejo from a stranger. Unfortunately, tips for the personnel are becoming a rule and not an expression of gratitude for a job well done. Good vacations overall.

Club Amigo Atlantico Guardalavaca: Everithing you paid for.

Room could be better, but, overall, one thing compensate for another. Beech, pools, hospitality - great! Looking forward for another stay at this resort. Probably spending more time on the available excursions.

Club Amigo Atlantico Guardalavaca: Excellent beaches and family fun!

Club Amigo is a personable, well laid out resort. The beaches are superb and you have your choice of the larger beach and two other smaller coves. You can snorkel from the beach as well. The hotel itself is older and a bit run down, but it is really all about the amazing staff and incredible beaches. The food is plain fare but plenty of it. Don't skip the ice cream!

Club Amigo Atlantico Guardalavaca: Great first trip to Cuba

I just returned from my first trip to the Caribbean. I took my two teenage Granddaughters to Cuba for Christmas. It was amazing. The resort was very nice - we did upgrade our room for a small fee. The beach was beautiful with wonderfully warm water. The food wasn't the best but we expected that so it wasn't a surprise. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. Overall it was a wonderful trip to a very nice resort.

Club Amigo Atlantico Guardalavaca: enjoyed the sun

The resort staff were very rude to us, not all of them, but it was enough that it was memorable. Our room was dirty when we got there and they told us it wouldn't be cleaned until the next day. We went earlier in the season so most of the al la carte restaurants were closed and the ones that were open did not serve food any better than the main area to eat. The food overall was enjoyable. The water was safe to drink since it was filtered. The excursions were fun but the busses were consistently  [... read more]about 30 minutes late. The scenery was beautiful, the beach was nice although it's technically considered to be off the resort so the moment you go towards the ocean you have people trying to sell you stuff which can get irritating when you're just trying to swim. The weather was nice most of the time, it rained a few days but that obviously couldn't be helped. Overall the only thing I really liked about it was that the food and drink didn't make us sick and we got nice tans.

Club Amigo Atlantico Guardalavaca: good hotel very bad travel

We had a good time at the resort and our trip there went on schedule . Coming home was a nightmare.Last day we found out the our plane was going to be 5 hours late .The bus was now going to pick us up at 9pm instead of 5 pm . Bus didn't reach the hotel until 10:40pm, what a long day. we were told that our flight was now to at 01:00 the next morning . When we got to the airport it then changed to 02:20.I initially thought I would be getting home around 02:00 am. I got home for 08:00am. Last year  [... read more]I had a 09:00am flight out of Torornto to Mexico , when I got there I was told there was a 6hr delay. Starting to get nrevous about dealing with Sunwing.....2 times in a row they have upset my travels
