Memories Flamenco Beach Resort: Loved The Experience

The staff was wonderful. The food was good and the accommodations were good. We had excellent weather, and somehow under an embargo, there were able to provide excellent service. Very good value for the money.

Blau Varadero: Would definitely recommend

I just spent a week at this resort and would definitely return and recommend. The grounds were beautiful and extremely clean. The hotel was a good size. Not to big, spotless, had everything that you needed. Food was good with a variety. Drinks were very good a large variety. Rooms were updated and kept very clean.

Memories Jibacoa: Cutest adults only resort

It's a small resort but very cute and the grounds are very well kept up, neat, clean. The beach is beautiful and amazing there are plenty of lounge chairs and umbrellas did not have to fight for any of them. There is a beach restaurant with excellent food. There are three restaurants you need to book two of them are delicious. The Italian restaurant was awful they do not know Italian food or how to cook it.

Sol Palmeras: Sol Palmero

The positives were: The staff were extremely friendly and always happy, Lobby was beautiful, The pools very clean, The dining room had lots of food and a really good variety.

Grand Aston Varadero Beach Resort: Great still new!

The resort is still in new condition and the location is great. I was very disappointed because the air conditioning in my room didn’t work at all, But I didn’t let AC situation ruin my vacation. Other one is the beds weren’t clean I had to request them to be changed for clean sheets. Overall I like it I would go back if the place gets a real manager.

Valentin Cayo Cruz: One of the best vacations we have had.

The hotel is beautiful and the view is incredible. The staff are very kind and helpful. We had so much fun with the entertainment group. Each one of them are very talented and the resort should be very proud to have these fine entertainers as part of their team.

Iberostar Origin Laguna Azul: My Cuba Expierence

Our recent stay at Origin Laguuna Azul was an unforgettable experience filled with warmth, joy, and cultural richness. Exceptional food, The culinary team truly knows how to impress. What truly set this resort apart, however, were the people. The staff exuded genuine hospitality, going above and beyond to ensure guests felt welcome and cared for. The entertainment was incredible—lively, vibrant, and full of heart. From music and dance to interactive performances, every evening felt like a ce [... read more]lebration.

These renovations show great promise and reflect a true commitment to providing an even better experience for guests.

Sanctuary White Sands: Sanctuary White Sands

For an almost new resort the grounds and resort were clean and the staff was friendly. The rooms were clean but the frig was not stocked on a regular basis..it was hit and miss with water bottles left on the counter. I was told I would have a garden room but room 1301 only had a view of roofs. The main dining room had soon any flies what is was impossible to enjoy anything. I even found 2 dead flies under a piece of cheese. I know people love cats and there lots of feral ones around but the s [... read more]taff allowed people to feed the cats on dinner plates.

Starfish Varadero: Vacation

We recently returned from a stay at this resort in Cuba and had a mixed experience overall. The beach was by far the highlight—stunning white sand, clear turquoise water, and plenty of space to relax. The resort grounds were clean and peaceful. We stayed in a garden view room, which was quiet but quite a walk from the main areas. Since I don’t like using elevators, getting to and from the room involved several flights of stairs, which became tiring. The food was okay. The buffet and snack bar [... read more] were the only regular dining options available during our stay, as the other restaurants weren’t open. We did try one of the à la carte restaurants, and the food and service there were excellent. It would’ve been nice to have more variety throughout the week. Unfortunately, I experienced food poisoning during the trip and felt unwell for several days, which made it difficult to fully enjoy the vacation. I wasn’t able to eat much, and it was challenging to recover—especially since food couldn’t be brought back to the room. Despite that, we still managed to have a good time, and the beautiful beach definitely made the trip memorable.

Grand Aston Varadero Beach Resort: Wonderful Resort

What a great time we had. This hotel reminded me of Mexico the way it's laid out. Small resort with a big heart. Not a lot of walking, elevators for people that need them Rooms are very clean, nice comfy beds, clean towels daily. The maids did a fantastic job daily Food was exceptional for Cuba Omelettes every day Chicken, fish and beef daily Rice dishes, fresh vegetables Fruit was a treat, fresh mangos, pineapple and papayas Bread and butter, yummy Not shortage on those We did not have pas [... read more]ta or French fries but we didn't miss them Staff for the most part were beautiful (there are a few that didn't want to make cappuccino for us every morning) so maybe move them to a job they prefer The music in the lobby was amazing we truly enjoyed every evening in the lobby The beach is fantastic yes the waves are fun, if you are looking for no waves go else where. The pool is big There isn't a lot going on again if you are looking for a party place move on We will absolutely return to This resort

Iberostar Selection Esmeralda: Beautiful Resort

The amenities in the resort were 5 star. I had hot water. The room was excellent and we received toilet paper, towels and water daily. I got turned around on my first night and ended up at the resort next door and Dariel Gonzalez came to my rescue and helped me find my room. It was truly a wonderful resort and I would highly recommend it Cathy wheaton

Resonance Musique Varadero: Very good place for party people

We where disappointed at first with the noise at nights. We were told that we can't expect anything different at a party hotel. After two sleepless nights, we got another room and didn't have no problems. The food, compared to other places and different times we've been in Cuba, was extremely well in comparison. Layout of the resort is very good and the beach first class. However, next time we'll book the adjacent hotel Resonance Blue, which was very quiet and nice. A little more walking to the  [... read more]beach, but we did like it.

Iberostar Selection Esmeralda: IBerostar Esmeralda Selection

I was very pleased with the resort, I had a great experience starting at the check in at the Lobby Jose Sarduy was very helpful changing our hotel to the ground floor with no complaints about the room just easier with my friends bad foot to do all the stairs. The security was great on the beach and all the staff were very friendly. Buffet servers were very accomodating and housekeeping was excellent.

Iberostar Selection Esmeralda: Pleasently surprised

The food was actually great tasting and had variety. The service workers were wonderful Jose at front desk, Karel in the sports bar, Elaina in the buffet. They were usually low on toilet paper but we had just enough.

Memories Jibacoa: Another wonderful 2 weeks at Memories Jibacoa

This resort is well stocked, lots of food. We had lots of bread, ketchup, mustard, even had french fries and pizza. The room was great, water pressure and temperature is good. Staff are amazing, all of them are great! The beach is lovely, great snorkelling, plenty of beach chairs. We will be back!

Memories Caribe Beach Resort: Amazing beach

Memories Caribe was one of the best resorts we have stayed at in a long time. It was so relaxing there and the beach was gorgeoso.us. We will be booking soon for my 65th next year, with about 15 to 20 ppl....can't wait....

Melia Buenavista: Great staff but changes needed

The staff at Melia Buenavista were the best part of the resort. So friendly! Beaches were beautiful. Really enjoyed the aqua fit in the pool. So fun! Unfortunately there is no designated smoking section so we were surrounded by smokers especially during the evening entertainment. Chicken legs every night on the menu and little to no vegetables. Rice was always the side. I understand about the shortages in Cuba but I wish the reviews we read were more honest. The 2 bathrooms near the lobby [... read more] bar and restaurants usually had no toilet paper or soap, or the toilets just weren’t working. Ran out of hot water the day before we left. Lovely staff but this resort needs change.
