Beautiful place

This is a great resort, nice and clean and the food and service was A+.I would recomend this to anyone, the beach was fantastic and the rooms was nice.would like to return some day.we had great weather.

Nice resort

I really liked this resort. I loved the beach,the pool, the people and the weather. I am hoping to return to this resort someday. I only have one complaint and that is the beds were a bit hard a nice pillowtop mattress would have been nice. But I slept well regardless. Thanks for the great stay.....

Super Resort

This resort is beautiful I really enjoyed my stay there very relaxing and quiet. The beach was beautiful and the people so helpful and nice. The food was good as well. I am hoping to return to this resort someday. The beds could be updated a bit they are a bit hard. Other wise it was great.

Wonderful Resort..

This hotel was lovely. Very easy to get around. The people were very nice and wanted to help you in any way they could. The beds were a bit hard but ok. The food was good we always found something to eat. I would recommend this resort to my friends and family. The beach area was beautiful.

Disappointing

This was our first trip to Cuba and it will be our last. The staff we're undertrained and under staffed. The resort is in desperate need of repairs and updates. The best thing about it was the beach. Drinks and food were bad both my husband and I got sick from the food. His lasted a day and mine is still ongoing a week later after getting sick. Will never stay at a Amelia resort again.

Beautiful resort

We would rate the resort with four stars. The grounds were beautiful, the rooms comfortable with a great view to the pool and grounds area. The two level setup for the room was good but a railing to go down the two steps would have helped the elderly. Two of the three restaurants were good, the buffet reasonable. The personnel were amazing. We would go there again.

Comfortable and well-run resort on beautiful Cuban beach.

Excellent service by kind and competent staff. Beautiful scenery. Great choice and variety of food and drinks. Reasonably clean, although wear and tear do show. Quiet rooms with good air conditioning. Took tour of Havana: the guide was professional and knowledgeable, but there was not enough time to appreciate the highlights of such a fascinating city. The trip to El Morro - a main historical attraction - was totally devoted to cigar and rum shopping, despite the last stop being at San Jose [... read more] market, in which those items could also be purchased. The price of this and other tours offered we found high.

Both plus and minus experience

The hotel is a bit old and in need of repairs here and there. The staff are very thoughtful and respectful and decent. I especially like the staff who let their personalities shine through alongside the need to maintain their professional demeanor. Good to know real people. Food was similar to all varadero hotels Not enough chairs on the beach and I really recommend a system whereby people dont monopolize beach lounge chairs while leaving them empty all day. That really sucks I fo [... read more]und it relaxing and got what I needed. I also love all the cute cats roaming around. It was ok ! Grounds were beautiful and noise levels low and allow for lots of rest. Love that it is adults only.

Great Resort

It is an absolutely beautiful resort. More than we expected. They were great if something was needed or tended to. The staff was great, and were super friendly. Nightly entertainment was not what we expected. It was far superior to a lot of the nightly entertainment we had seen at other resorts. There was always something to do. The specialty dinners were great, we just loved the Italian one. The rooms were spotless. Fridge was stocked everyday, with water and refreshments. Every morning we wo [... read more]uld check in at the shark pool first. They have 2 plus a lot of stock fish. We would definitely return to this hotel

Great Vacation

Check in was super quick and pleasant. Room was nice. Bed was hard. Beautiful ocean view. Pleasantly surprised by the food. Lots of variety and was good. Hamburger guy by the beach was awesome and so was the two different egg stations for breakfast. A'la cartes were very good. I personally did not enjoy the dinner at the Italian but someone else might. Room was always clean. Pool and beach were excellent. Great service overall. Would recommend.

Breathe taking

We stayed here for a week. It's a Spanish style resort and has amazing staff and great food. This was our first visit to Cuba and everybody told us about the bland food. This was not the case, we enjoyed the food very much. There was a few foods we were not sure on but we tried anyways. The grounds are amazing and the beach is gorgeous. The staff here is so amazing and courteous. Some of the rooms are dated but very clean. The maintenance could use a bit if attention as well. Overall I would rat [... read more]e this resort a 9 out of 10. I would highly recommend this resort.

Great Resort

First class facilities. Food was excellent. Only criticism was the Wi Fi reliability and the lack of rooms with double beds on upper floors. The staff at this resort were exceptional, from the resturant to the outdoor activities. The three a la carte are amount the best we have ever dined at.

Good time

Just got back from a week stay at this resort. We stayed in the concierge suites. Well worth the extra money. Entertainment, food, room service all 4 star. They could improve on specialty drinks, nothing was frozen. Beach was fabulous. What made our trip special were the Canadian and Cuban friends we made. Would definitely recommend this resort.

Great value for the $

The hotel was nicer then expected. Very clean and good service. There was always plenty of shade at the pool,or beach. Food was typical resort food, a little bland for my taste, however how can you complain about having delicious lobster for 4 of the meals! Lobby bar drinks were the best and mojitos from the mojito bar were always spot on.

Great food

I was surprised that the food at this resort was so good. Every day there was a table with just different kinds of cheeses, meats, and more! One of the staff told us that all the meats were imported from Canada. Hotel staff was very nice and helpful!

Excellent Cuba experience!

Really nice resort. A little older, and it showed in some areas, but excellent amenities and staff. Food was the best I have encountered in my six visits to Cuba. We had an issue with our shower that was resolved within an hour. Very impressive.

This is all you need!

Sleeping Rooms: Tub was stained, grout was cracked and stained, some stains near the lights on the ceiling - could use some updating. No bugs. The room was clean and simple. Pool: Beautiful. Never had an issue getting a lounge chair near the pool. Beach: Amazing. You could walk along the beach for miles in either direction. Food: Best we've had in Cuba so far. Lots of choice at the buffet. A la cartes were nothing too special, but a nice change from the buffet. Grounds: Beautiful.  [... read more] Sharks, cats and birds made for entertaining exploring. If your expectations are reasonable (for Cuba), you will enjoy your stay here.

Great Resort!

For the price, great resort! Rooms were clean and had everything you needed. Beach was the best I've ever seen, always chairs available. Food was good, entertainment every night. Grounds very nice

Nice Adults Only Resort

I will start off with location great, grounds clean and well kept. Our room on 5th floor kept clean well stocked and great view. Concierge very helpful and go above and beyond.(Thank you Maylyn) The a la carte restuarants are fabulous. The buffet is good but repetitive. The beach is beautiful endless miles of white sand. Few local vendors selling wears but just say no and they leave you alone. The service is top notch the staff is there for you (they seem to be short of it in certain areas)They [... read more] are friendly and accommodating. We had no issues. The pool was not one of the highlights for us but we are not pool people. The bars are well stocked and pour freely just a little understaffed. The staff is stretched thin. We had a few nice days at beginning of the trip but had a cold front come in so we had less than stellar days to windy to swim in the ocean(which is what we enjoy). We found the resort a little quite but had a great trip. We were in 25 plus ( cold for the Cubans) but better than being in -25 here. LOL

Fabulous resort

We just got back from this resort and what an incredible time. The staff were friendly and helpful. The food was ok and plentiful. The rooms were great and water and beer were stalked in the fridge daily. We stayed in the bungalow section 62. It is Cuba so the beach was wonderful.
