A little Trinidad on the beach

The reviews made us worried about our choice to go to this hotel but we felt it was a fabulous place. It needs some fixes,the room towels are thin and the food was repetitive but the staff and overall feel of the resort was just wonderful. Lots of shaded areas on the beach. The beach is really long for walking along. There are 5 bars serving a variety of drinks. Weekly they had a pig roast on the beach to eat at the picnic tables near the beach bar. The architecture is quite similar to Trinidad  [... read more]with the same lively colours and colonial look. It is a much more quiet resort than the one just beside it (very noisy) loud music. There is not much to see as far as snorkling but a boat can take you out at the next resort for 10 pesos but you must reserve ahead. The hotel had a money exchange which was helpful. Considering this was a state run hotel in Cuba, this resort was a really nice surprise. If you tipped once in a while, the service was better if you wanted a much stronger drink but even if you did not tip, the service was very friendly. Trinidad is just 15 minutes away which is really the only reason we booked at this hotel but the hotel was better than some others I have stayed at in the past. If you decide to book here, keep in mind it is a 2.5 to 3 hour drive from airport to the hotel. Not a hotel for vegetarians or for anyone who is looking for haute cuisine, plush towels, or a party place. It is just laid back, quiet, strolling along the beach and relaxing for a week or two. For hotel snobs - avoid but for those who know that Cuba has done exceptionally well considering the embargo over the years and want just a safe place to stay, lovely beach and enough food you can eat (and drink), this is the place for you. Have fun. Trinidad is wonderful too. So much character and the people are very warm and inviting.

Beautiful sandy beach.

I stayed in the ocean view room and had a pleasant experience. The room, waiters, resort staff were all very friendly and accommodating. The food was very tasty especially the barbequed pig on a spit!

Quiet and comfortable.

This hotel is one of three on the Ancon Peninsula. It is a twenty minute bus ride to Trinidad. The hotel is very accommodating in every way. From time time to time there was no hot water pressure but the cold water was fine for showering. Trinidad is a must see for the music at Casa de Musica. If you are a resort whiner, just stay home. I was very happy with this resort. Great for seniors. Make sure to fly into Cenfuegos not Santa Clara which is too far away.

Had a great time as always

Love Cuba, it's people and the culture. This resort is on my list as a must travel to, the staff are friendly and always willing to help ensure you have a great time. Osmany (PR Manager) is one of the best PRs I've known and ensures you have a vacation to remember.

Will go back again and again

We have been to this amazing location numerous times and have no doubt we will go back. The staff are excellent! We absolutely love going to Trinidad to enjoy their many excellent restaurants! The resort is clean and I can honestly say I have no complaints about the food there. It is basic food (Totally organic!) and I look forward to the Cuban restaurant!

Better than a four star

The hotel grounds and rooms were clean and very well maintained. The room could have used a small fridge. The beach is beautiful. A jeep trip into the Topes Collantes national park is highly recommended. I would go back in a heartbeat -to the hotel and the park. Only downside - two hour trip from Santa Clara airport to the hotel.

Beautiful Authentic Cuban Resort

This is a great resort with helpful, friendly staff always willing to help or just give a smile. The food was good, plentiful and the service prompt. I liked the resort theme, grounds and beach setup, as it was easy to get around, get drinks, entertainment etc. It was nice to see the rooms and amenities have been updated and renovated. The location on Ancon Peninsula is fairly close to town and has access to local beaches a sweet view of water and mountains and of course Trinidad. A great place  [... read more]to stay to relax in this area of Cuba, I recommend to anyone!

Beautiful beach and sea.

Well kept grounds, flowers everywhere; decent food; good cocktails (try the Havana Club bar); friendly staff. Sometimes there was a shortage of beach towels. The weather was perfect during our 14-day stay.

Beautiful Beach

The hotel, grounds and rooms were very clean, a little dated but clean. The staff were amazing wether it was the front desk staff or the food servers helping you, you always got fantastic service. Beautiful location on a peninsula.

Great Improvement's

This was my second time at the Brisas Trinidad , we enjoyed our second visit very much . The main buffet was finished with its renovations. Very bright and large Buffet area now, the selection was good . The staff at the Brisas Hotel are all wonderful . Always ready to help you with all your wishes. Thank you again to Osamny for taking care of me and my granddaughters booking. We will be back soon. Gabriele
