Hotel Playa Coco: Beautiful resort
This resort is approaching 20 years old but it is beautiful. The gardens were mature and kept in great shape. Most of the rooms have been renovated. While it was at very low capacity when we were there, most of the amenities including the entertainers, were working and open. We were treated amazingly well. The beach is awesome, as you would expect in Cuba, and the pools were nice and clean. We had a great time!! Lizy, on the animation team, was awesome and Adriana made sure we had more than we n [... read more]
Memories Caribe Beach Resort: Best resort for the Cayo Coco beach!
The resort grounds are kept very clean and the groundskeepers work very hard to maintain the beauty and pleasure of the resort. The nightly entertainment is very good (better than resorts I've stayed at in Mexico and the D.R.) and Carlos does a great job as Entertainment Coordinator. The food in the buffet is of good quality and there was no problem to have omelettes with real eggs, meals with vegetables, salads, chicken, pork, several types of tasty fish, and even beef. The service staff both [... read more]
Memories Caribe Beach Resort: Amazing Resort
I enjoyed my one week vacation at Memories Caribe! The staff were friendly, my room was amazing (cool air conditioning, comfortable bed, El Fresco shower, stocked fridge daily and spacious). I met many wonderful people, danced and participated in activities at the pool!

Iberostar Coral Esmeralda: Terrible
This is in no way even a two star resort. Room service did not answer phone. Did not fog for mosquitoes so impossible to enjoy anything. You could not leave room at night. Buffett had more flies than dead cow carcass.
Iberostar Origin Playa Pilar: You get what you pay for
The grounds are immaculate; Playa Pilar is fantastic and by far one of the nicest beaches we have been to; it’s a four minute ride from the hotel. The beach at the hotel is decent and once you are past the coral it is clear, beautiful and shallow. Service was impeccable. Food options are at the lower end of the scale however we were prepared for this and the beds could have been a little more comfortable. Our room was cleaned daily and towels were replaced daily unlike North American hotels
Grand Aston Cayo Paredon Beach Resort: Nice resort
The resort is beautiful, new & modern, very little entertainment & boring , Beach is amazing, shallow waters, lots of seating. Staff is okay, they speak very little English, there’s a few that is really nice & others not so much, front desk staff isn’t accommodating. Food is horrible (which is expected for Cuba). This was my second time going to Cuba & I don’t plan on returning because of the food unfortunately.
Memories Flamenco Beach Resort: Great Stay
We stayed for a week, Pros 1. Location is amazing 2. Multiple bar and restaurants 3. Staff is too polite 4. Rooms are spacious with good view Cons 1. Food quality is average, more cuisine should be added with spices 2. Not much cocktails/mocktails available 3. Mosquitoes/flies all around on food and in rooms/no fly catcher anywhere 4. Bed bugs in the mattresses- badly bitten during stay 5. Less activities /food options for kids
Melia Cayo Coco: Fantastic trip Meliá Cayo Coco
This resort was great. The grounds were very beautiful and the beach was one of the best I’ve been to. The resort itself is very well run. The room was absolutely comfortable and very modern. The housekeeping staff did a fabulous job every day, the room was always spotless. As for the food, all meals were good. There was a wide assortment of options. The staff made the dining experience even better with their friendly manner. Massive shoutout to Sachy Perez, who was so great throughout my stay [... read more]
Iberostar Selection Esmeralda: Beautiful Resort
Easy to get to all amenities. Things all vey close together. I do wish there were more choices than just the sports bar to eat for when you are arriving late in the evening. Wish they had more beach huts along with more beach chairs, found that it was always full in the morning. Not much to do in the area as still developing. Only other tip is that if you are coming in on a late flight, prepare to be eaten by mosquitoes at the airport. If you can before getting off plane spray yourself with [... read more]

Iberostar Origin Playa Pilar: Ok
We ( eight of us) just came Back from spending one week at the Iberostar Playa Pilar resort in near Cayo Coco. Not sure what the issue is, but the resort had an infestation of flies. There was also an issue of cockroaches in the Main buffet. I witnessed a cockroach running across the counter where the hot food was stationed as well as on the floor. I do believe the Iberostar should look into why they have this issue. I have been to Cuba before and did not experience anything like that. On a pos [... read more]
Iberostar Origin Playa Pilar: The hotel has its good and bad
The entertainment, the pool area, the beach are all great. Great. The à la carte restaurants are very good too. The buffet and snack area are not good as they are full of flies. The buffet area even had roaches on the floor. The food in the buffet area is not even covered which would help prevent flies from landing on food.
Iberostar Selection Esmeralda: Beautiful Hotel, sucks for entertainment!
Good people, Beautiful hotel, beautiful beach everything is brand-new but the food is not good at all, and there is no theater or hall for entertainment. They always run out of something. One thing for sure if you want to loose weight come to this hotel. Bring your own kitchen
Iberostar Coral Esmeralda: Very Good Resort
I just returned from a trip at this resort (Aug 2023). The resort itself is in very good condition and clean and the grounds are in excellent condition. The resort is small and all the buildings are quite close. The beach is beautiful and there was never an issue getting a chair under an umbrella. Coffee and drinks were available in many different areas of the resort. The food was ok, better than I expected. There was a beach bbq everyday which was the best option. Breakfast was also good [... read more]
Memories Flamenco Beach Resort: Great Time
Had a great time at this resort. Goes without said that Cuba's beaches are on top of all. The resort itself is really nice. Friendly staff, good maintenance overall on most things. My room was really nice also. Of course there can definitely be room for some improvements but overall its good. Anyone that leaves 1star or poor reviews is an idiot. Plain and simple. Cuba is Cuba. Go there, enjoy the culture, the people, and the efforts that are done for us to have a great time
Iberostar Coral Esmeralda: Beautiful resort
We were at this hotel for 14 days, the service vas very good, the room vas clean and cold, we enjoyed the beach and pools, the food-well it's Cuba, they did their best with what they had, we didn't miss anything, we would like to have more vegetables , but it vas not that bad, the drinks were good, we enjoyed the drinks made by Alfred at the cigar bar, also the drinks at the lobby bar and beach bar. Thanks to all the staff of Coral Level for the good service.
Memories Caribe Beach Resort: Amazing resort
VERY nice resort, great ambiance, beautiful beach with clear water. Food was delicious and well presented. The room could use a fresh coat of paint. Nice pool area, snack bar and restaurants. The buffet had a variety of food, the Diamond Club was worth the money.
Iberostar Coral Esmeralda: 100% YES
We upgraded to Coral Level. We were celebrating our 30th anniversary. Loved that it was smaller. Roof top room was beautiful. Pool was great. Staff was fantastic. Beach was STUNNING! Will be planning a return trip. 1.25 hour ride from airport.
Grand Aston Cayo Paredon Beach Resort: Awesome Resort
I loved this newish resort. The staff was always kind and friendly. The rooms were cleaned every day. You get new bottled water and bathroom towels daily. Leave them tips in the form of CAD and USD notes. The public restrooms were some of the cleanest I have seen anywhere. There are many bars and food places located at the beachfront and swimming pool areas. The workers are super friendly and welcoming. Make sure you bring lots of bug spray, sun screen, and after-bite products. Bring some spi [... read more]
