Bad resort! amazing beach

bad installations but amazing beach and staff, poor food, overall if you are just into beach go ahead if not forget this resort. even though is close to havana u might just go somewhere else is up to taste.

Great place

It is a great place the beach is near the hotel which is very good the swimming pool is beautiful the rooms are clean but the bath tub and the sink need improvement , the stuff are supper nice and friendly . over all me and my family had a great time it is worth it

Good resort

The rooms were fine, nice balcony, food not so great as in other resorts in Cuba,plenty of drinks. Beach was excellent, lots of shade.Entertainment was great with daily shows. The free shuttle bus to Havana was excellent.

Great resort

Great hotel, amazing staff but food not so good. The hotel offer a shuttle bus to Havana everyday. We got to enjoy the beach in the morning and the city of Havana in the afternoon. Staff were vey friendly and helpful whrn asking for instructions.

Nice beach and staff.

The grounds were plain. The food was good. The beach was beautiful. The room was average for Cuba. Nice location to Havana and nearby town. Entertainment was just OK. No disco at night and boring for a youthful couple! Overall happy to have gone once to Havana and this all inclusive resort!

Nice stay.

The hotel was perfect for us. Not luxurious but comfortable and clean. The room was bigger than we expected with lots of drawers and cupboard space. We did have to fiddle with the toilet a couple of times, the sink faucet moved on the counter and the bathtub had seen better days, but there was plenty of hot water and lots of pressure. The staff was wonderful and creative with swan- and boat-shaped towel designs. We smiled when we entered the room after it was cleaned. We did find the front-facin [... read more]g room noisy in the early morning, though, with trucks and cars. The food was plentiful with a much larger selection of vegetables than I expected. It became a bit repetitive, especially since I don't eat meat, but I didn't plan on haute cuisine. Yes, there could be flies and birds in the dining area but it just added to the ambience. And Lado, a waiter, was the essence of charm and attentive service. Havana was just a short, free shuttle bus away, so our stay was a great mix of city and beautiful beach time. The ocean was warm, could be choppy, but playing in the waves was a wonderful respite from frigid Toronto. Hotel Atlantico was the right place at the right time.

Great resort

Example:We had a great time, the entertainment was fun, the access to the beach and facilities were convenient even when rained. White sands, long Gorgeous beach, friendly hard working staff at this all inclusive place, restaurants are also very good. Over all we had wonderful time. We are coming back soon.

Antlantico

Great location if you want to be by the beach and close to Havana city. The staff is very friendly especially if you are nice to them. Be sure to tip at least on occasion. The food was not spectacular but eatable. I would definitely recommend this hotel but do not expect a high luxury place. There are a lot of locals around which also allows you to see the Cuban way of life.

Okay resort

The hotel itself matches its star rating, with the beach being 1 star above it. However I would like to rate the personnel 4.5 stars, always very helpful! One of the main attractions for me was the shuttle to Havana.

Run down rooms, minor theft from room, must tip

Could usually find one thing to eat, very repetittive food, ok for a first trip to Cuba. Twice daily shuttle to Havana useful. Stayed at Casa Particular "Merry's" for 31 CUC including breakfast, on Obispo in Havana to be able to hear Cuban music in most restaurants in old Havana, and go to Buenovista Social Club evening 50 CUC,

Standard 3 Star with Great Staff

There were few disappointments and plenty of positive things to report about Club Caribe Atlantico. This was my fifth trip to Cuba so I pretty much got what I paid for. The room was clean, hot water was plentiful but it could've benefited from some renovations; not a deal breaker. Beds weren't great but I didn't have trouble sleeping. Overall, I'd say the room was satisfactory for the time I actually spent in it. Food was pretty standard for Cuba and I was always able to find something to eat. O [... read more]ccasionally, there was a particular tasty meat or fish dish that brought the meal up a level. Musicians played during lunch & dinner and I would say they were talented and kept things light and easy listening for meal times. Entertainment was pretty standard for Cuban resorts but I found the musicians to be very good. They solicit guests for tips but are neither agressive or impolite so be respectful in your treatment of them. Hotel staff were a great compliment to the overall experience of the resort. Dining room staff, Bartenders, Beach staff and Chambermaids seemed content and eager to help. One employee noticed my Scuba Diving T-shirt and offered me a dive excursion from the hotel's beach. Within an hour we were on a catamaran heading out to a local reef. There were two free shuttle bus trips to Havana leaving from the hotel everyday and various excursions offered from travel representatives working in the lobby. Internet was available but staff advised us that it was quite slow; users confirmed this so I didn't use it. Currency exchange is available at the hotel but the rate is slightly lower than a regular bank. Not low enough that I didn't use it but Canadian money is taking a hit everywhere right now so budget a little higher until the rate gets better. This was a standard Cuban 3 star with great service and good return on the money I spent. Great scuba diving from the beach or Marina Tarara; the excursion people can set you up with that.

Fun in the sun

Club Atlantico was breezy and refreshing. I live for the beach down here. All the staff are pleasant and highly functional. It is a good idea to treat the all inclusive, re: food as an auxiliary feature and go out to a restaurant or two to really experience Cuban fare. The rooms are basic. But your outside most of the time. Just brush up on your Spanish. And take advantage of the free shuttle to Habana.

Standard hotel

I recently spent 9 days in Havanna, split equally between the hotel and and a private rented residence in town. The beach and weather were very nice and I very much enjoyed the time in the ocean and the sun. The best asset of the hotel is the reasonable price point as it does not have top class facilities, but is just adequate. Tried for a whole week to get the television working but had no success.

Poor resort

Not good at all, the rooms were like a old motel, food is not good also, beach is the only thing that we loved it Service Is friendly Pool is small and not clean Not recommending for no one to go there

Disappointed

I recently stayed at club atlantico . This August. I can say the food was ok . The building isnt in good shape the rooms are deteriorating. I actually locked myself in the washroom . Door knob came off. Lol . I dont recommend it

Fantastic value

Rooms were clean. Resort is directly on a beautiful white sandy beach. Free shuttle bus daily to Havans was great. Food was average for Cuba but OK. Staff were very friendly. Yes, I would go back to this resort. Looking forward to my next trip to this hotel.

Stayed there three different times in one year.

The beach is beautiful. Staff are great. Hotel is very clean. It is close to Havana so you get the best of two worlds, the action in Havana and the R&R of a beautiful beach. Food is terrible. I always really enjoyed myself there. I would go again.

Not what I expected

The atlantico hotel is in need of some serious updating and maintance. The staff look very tiered and indifferent to your precence unless there is a large tip in there hand. The rooms that we tried all were in poor condition, ei...paint falling off the walls and the furniture were broken along with the bed springs poking your back. Bar service all inclusive if you like suger drinks or cheapest of the rums. We were not impressed with this hotel, it's not what was advertised on the brochure. The f [... read more]ood was very limited to bean mixes, and limited amount of meat and chicken. The staff seemed anoyed if you asked for coffee or water and they would point to the self serve coffee maker, unless they were tipped for every request that was asked of them. All was not bad at this resort the sun was shining at the public beach.

Great location

We (my husband and our adult son) had a great time in Cuba and Havana. We loved the hotel as the location is great for us as we love to spend time in Havana and on the beach. The hotel is on the beach, and it has a free shuttle to bring guest into Havana twice in a day. The food is good enough for us and we enjoyed the two speciality restaurants. They have nice fish dishes which we enjoy. The service staff at the hotel are very helpful. It is a smaller hotel, but we enjoyed the time there.
