Iberostar Selection Ensenachos: Beautiful resort, mediocre food!

We absolutely loved the grounds of the Iberostar. It truly felt like paradise. The vegetation throughout the resort was truly breath taking! The beaches were incredible and there was a lot of entertainment during the day by the fitness staff. There was stretching, volleyball, a water work out, dancing and more! The food wasnt the best by any means. The lunch served at the beach was by far our favourite. The breakfast, lunch and dinner options were not labeled so it was challenging to decifer wh [... read more]at was in each dish. The options didnt change at all throughout the week for any meals. As for the rooms, they were very well kept and in small little compounds which we loved. It was so quiet! There wasnt much entertainment during the evening. They had a live band maybe every other day in the lobby and a show in the auditorium at 930 every night. Some of the shows were jaw dropping! Other than that, there was no real night life. This is the perfect resort for kicking your feet up and enjoying the beach. We sure did that!

Brisas Sierra Mar: As good as always

We were in Brisas Sierra Mar February 5 to 12. Resort was as good as always (it was our 5th vacation here). First 3 days there were waves, preventing us from snorkeling, so we played volleyball in the pool 10-12 and 3-5 pm. It was fun. The last 3 days water was clear and we were snorkeling for hours each day. Food was good - lot of salmon, shrimps, calamari. Pork and chicken were very good, as always. No fruit due to problems with had in Cuba, but we traded our old clothes with fruit with loca [... read more]l guys. Walk to the waterfall was great, we came there twice. Staff was very helpful. Ana from beach restaurant El Yarey makes best Spanish coffee. We enjoyed our vacation.

Melia Las Dunas: Great family trip!

We travelled with 3 families; 6 adults and 7 kids, and had the best time. This was our second time at this resort. We were able to get our rooms beside each other which was fantastic for the kids. The grounds were so clean, staff so nice, beautiful beach and pool. We have nothing but good things to say about this resort. We hope we can go back again someday, until next time!

Melia Costa Rey: Amazing Vacation Spot!

This resort is spotless. Staff is constantly cleaning the bathrooms, grounds, everything. Maids do an amazing job in the rooms, we loved Judy. Check-in/check-out was easy and extremely quick. Reception was very accommodating to arrange a late check-out. Our group was able to keep one room an extra 4 hours at $10 cuc per hour. Food was impressive for Cuba. Omelettes, crepes, and French toast were our go to for breakfast. 24 hour snack bar had the best fries and burgers, this was our go to  [... read more]for lunch and late night snack. Supper at the buffet was great, everyone in our group were completely satisfied. A la cartes were good; Cuban was the favourite. Japanese was disappointing, the chef wasn’t as jovial as we are accustomed to, but food was good. The French restaurant was amazing. We paid the extra $10 cuc to dine at the Gourmet restaurant, it was well worth it. The Churros (fried dough pastries) that were served throughout the day were a big hit with our group. We would have 2 or 3 servings a day. The bartender at the snack bar, Jorge, was great. He always made us laugh, was friendly with everyone and spoke very good English. Nightly entertainment was great. We enjoyed 4 nights out of 6 at the theatre. The other shows were a beach party and an aquatic show. We would have preferred all nightly shows be in the theatre. We were very impressed with the amount of chairs there were at the beach and pools, never a need to reserve seating. The amount of pools, bars, and restaurants are great. There is never much of a line up for anything. One of the draws to this resort was how close it was to the airport. 10 to 15 minute bus ride was great. The resort is very well laid out. It is very close to everything. We have been to Cuba a few times, the Pullman is our favourite. Our group likes to try new resorts, new places/countries each year. This is the first time our group has decided to return to a resort for a second time. We stayed in a garden view room, in the regular side. We didn’t feel there was any need to upgrade to the collection side. I rate this resort at a 5, without hesitation.

Melia Cayo Santa Maria: Great Resort

Great week! Staff very welcoming! Beach was incredible, that was the best!! Nice entertainment at the lobby at night! Food was ok .....for Cuba!! The only thing that I can complain about is the booking of « Restaurants à la Carte ». You have to go book every morning and never had the time I wanted so it was always late at night. But we had an awesome week and would probably go back!!

Paradisus Princesa Del Mar: Don’t go

Awful food, poor service, no wine is not acceptable at an all inclusive, last day there no vodka ridiculous Will never return to Cuba employees all seemed tip hungry, I expected service. Not changing my bathroom towels the whole trip was another thing that disturbed me... I threw towels on the ground and the maid just hung up the dirty towel. The mini fridge was never stocked after asking 5 times... oh once they put 2 beers in it. Thx

Valentin Perla Blanca: Amazing resort

Amazing time! Will definitely be going back. I went with my daughter, and we met so many new friends. Friends we will keep forever. There is always something to do there. The people that work there make you feel as though you are part of their family. They take very very good care of you. And the beach.........perfection.

Melia Costa Rey: Pullman Cayo Coco Cuba

Pullman CayoCoco is by far the best resort in Cayo Coco Cuba. From the size to pools, food and staff, simply the best. Out of all our trips to Cuba this one stands out the most. Highly recommended and I’m sure you will not be disappointed with this resort A+++

Valentin El Patriarca Varadero: It's the people and service that make El Patriarca good

Review of Ocean Varadero El Patriarca It's amazing to find people so happy, helpful and kind. Everyone from the reservation clerks, chamber maids, ground keepers, waiters , bar tenders went out of their to make you comfortable. Our chamber maid, China, was a wealth of information. She took the time to guide you on trips and was willing to go the extra mile to make sure you are comfortable and happy with the service. Our room was kept pristine and with adequate supplies. If you need additional [... read more] stuff all you have to do is mentioned it to China. The ground keepers were polite and made little baskets and decorated flowers with coconut branches and offered to the ladies. Mike’s coffee house was always busy with a variety of coffee and pastries. They make an excellent café Patriarca laded with rum. The ladies were always at your service smiling and having conversation with the customers. The food was excellent with local delicacies such as cassava, fried plantains, beans and pork in different forms and many other dishes. It gives you the feel of the Caribbean. The beach restaurant is highly recommended for lunch. Excellent service, fantastic people and good choice. I enjoyed the catch of the day. Local musician from 7-9, Piano bar until 11, shows nightly and variety of drinks from the bar. Avoid sitting next to guests who are there only to get drunk. Date of stay: February 2020

Iberostar Origin Daiquiri: This Resort has it ALL!! Superior Service

Loved! The Staff !!! Each and every staff member went out of their way to ensure our vacation was what we wanted it to be. FOOD was a plenty! 3 cook stations and enough variety that even the pickiest of eaters will be satisfied. They have many sauces, oils and vinegars for salads and to add flavour to your meals along with several dishes of flavoured salts. Entertainment staff fun. Beach is close, clean and aquamarine! Drinks brought to you by amazing service staff. Scuba diving, wind surfing,  [... read more]snorkeling, catamaran volleyball.and more Lots to do if you want or nothing at all and soak up the sun. Sunwing excursions are affordable and fun! Recommend the all in one. Our favourite was the rum snd sugar cane tour. Iberostar Daquiri has scooter rentals for $25 cuc. You can travel the island and leave to go to nearby city of Moran. Rooms are fresh and clean. Onsite shopping for souvenirs or forgotten toiletries. Cigar shop onsite too! with very knowledgeable staff. We went offsite to purchase and found Iberostar Daquiri had the best prices. Highly recommended if this is your first trip or 100th to Cuba. Keep in mind this Cayo doesnt have inhabitants.. resorts only! If you are looking for a trip where you meet locals or check out local restaurants and architecture you will have to rent a car or take an excursion.

Occidental Arenas Blancas: Amazing resort

We had a amazing trip. In Cuba one of the very beautiful beaches is Varadero location. Absolutely gorgeous, people are very friendly and it is safe in Varadero. The view of the beach is stunning very friendly for families in Varadero Cuba. They really look after the tourist over there the whole Area is designed especially for Tourist.

Valentin Perla Blanca: Mediocre

The rooms were okay. The staff is very friendly. There was a lot of cigarette butts all around the pool area. The wood on the beds by the pool could be replaced. The snack bars were often out of menu items most of the days. No soap in the bathrooms most of the time. Toilet paper was not replaced quick enough so you always needed to bring your own tissue. Several of the toilets had no seats-just the porcelain to sit on. The A’La Cart restaurants had some of the same food choices on the menu and [... read more] several of the items on the menu were not available. The beach was beautiful!!

Sanctuary at Grand Memories Santa Maria: Great Time!

The resort was very nice and clean. Food was good and drinks were cold. Would go back again! One of the best resorts I’ve been to in Cuba and we go every year. The wine and cheese were our favourite... we enjoyed every night.

Melia Varadero: Great Vacation

My husband and I truly enjoyed our stay this past week at the Amelia Varadaro. Our room was clean and comfortable with a large balcony. All the staff that we encountered whether at our room, in the bars, in the a la cart, or the buffets or the front desk we were treated well and felt very comfortable. The warmth and kindness of the Cuban people keeps bringing us back.

Melia Jardines del Rey: good value and great staff

The food was good and a good selection. There were a couple of pig roasts. Probably the best place ever to book an a la carte meal. Staff was friendly, grounds were well maintained. Really liked the coffee at the lobby bar. Able to get a good selection of coffees. Good entertainment. Rooms were large and cleaning staff did a good job. Had an issue with a clogged drain in the shower and it was taken care of right away. Was able to get a late checkout which in 15+ years of going down south we  [... read more]were never able to before.

Be Live Turquesa: third visit to this hotel

staff is friendly and almost every speaks english The grounds are well kept and the property is not big so it is easy to get around. My room was large with a large balcony and had been recently painted with a good air conditioner and tv. No complaints with the food or service The beach is perfect and always chairs available Pool is large ,clean and well maintained. Lots of activities and entertainment. Its a solid 3 star and i would return.

Melia Cayo Santa Maria: Melia Cayo Santa Maria

7 day trip with 8 in our party. 4 adults and 4 children. Resort was easy to get around and not a ton of walking for small children. We loved the small units with minimal stairs. Beach was beautiful and well maintained. Pools clean and great swim up bar. Internet never worked and had to pay 2-3 times over even though we never connected. If you have work to do, dont bother going to this resort as you will be in trouble. Food typical for cuba.

Gran Muthu Imperial: Our 5 days package

We purchased 5 days package stay in Grand Mathu Imperial: from Feb 8 to Feb 13. We came to hotel 10 pm Feb 8th and checked out 7 am Feb 13th. 5 nights and 4 days. Probably that's what it mean to purchase 5 days package... The hotel was 1 year old and everything was brand new and clean. We liked a room we stayed (only water didn't go out of shower cabin and was running out to floor and after our complain - nobody was sent to fix it). And also in the morning of our leave we couldn't open the saf [... read more]e where we left our documents. We were scared to be late for bus but repair guy came fast - appreciate it. Entertainment was good and we liked food. So we give 5 with minus stars.

Melia Marina Varadero: Nice resorst great location for us specious 1 bdrm apt

Over all it's a good experience, this is our 2nd time at the same resort, there was little glitch at checking in time where the toilet seat cover was broken, when I asked for to be replaced, surprisingly I was told that isn't possible? no explanation why, then I was offered a room instead of the studio which I paid for, of course I refused. the house keeping manager Lucia after telling her that we are a repeated guest, she offered us complimentary upgrade to a 1 bedroom apartment. Food is bi [... read more]t better than last year, entertainment was very good, the only thing I noticed the cleaning I mean the house keeping last year was bit better as pillow covers were smelly because of the pillows themselves weren't clean. We asked for replacement. One thing we didn't like at all also some other guests we spoke with had similar complain is the mattress, it was awful, broken springs impossible to sleep on, we slept on the couch in the living room which was somehow better. This would be the reason if I don't go to this resort again.
