By far the biggest island in the Caribbean, Cuba boasts a rich history of Spanish colonial prosperity, revolution, cultural diversity, and tourism. All-inclusive Cuba vacations can generally be divided into two categories – those with a focus on Cuba’s natural beauty, beaches, mountains, and eco-tourism; and those that provide opportunities to learn about the Cuban culture, history, and entertainment. For anyone who loves to explore culture and history, Havana presents 400 years of western history that will surely charm travellers. Nightlife is also big in Havana, making it the perfect spot for travellers who appreciate great jazz and Latin music, as well as nightclubs, theatre, ballet, and more. (Tip: While you’re in the area, make sure to stop by the Fortress of San Carlos de la Cabaña and find war-scarred relics.) Want to find a good blend of everything? An all-inclusive Varadero package paired with a Havana city-stay is a fantastic way to experience the best of Cuba. Here you’ll welcome outstanding beaches and various cultural attractions – nightlife, entertainment, restaurants, shopping, golf, and more. Other popular destinations in Cuba like Cayo Santa Maria and Cayo Largo are small islands celebrated for their world-class beaches and serene enviornment.
Best Resorts in Cuba
Cuba offers plenty of accommodation options suitable for various types of travellers. From the 5-star, family-friendly Melia Cohiba located in Havana to the 3-star, adults-only ROC Barlovento in Varadero, there is something here for everyone! Cuban hotels span all star ratings, but remember, Cuban hotels may not be up to North American standards -- so we recommend choosing a hotel that is 3-star or higher, reading reviews, and consulting your travel agent. As long as your expectations are managed, Cuba vacations can be cheap and cheerful. They can be romantic and luxurious too, depending on your resort choice and budget. From family-friendly properties to adults-only getaways, we have it all. To learn more about the available inclusions, don’t hesitate to speak with an agent who’s been there! They can recommend a hotel that suits your preferences - whether you travel for good food, golf, scuba diving, family amenities, sightseeing and more.
Cuba Attractions
Besides stunning white sand beaches, swaying palm trees, and turquoise waters, Cuba offers so much more in the way of attractions. We know Cuba is the perfect place for an affordable and beautiful beach getaway, but there is also a variety of cultural offerings in cities like Havana, Santiago de Cuba, Cienfuegos, and even in some tourist areas. Don't miss out on an opportunity to soak up the culture -- and of course, you've probably heared about how friendly the locals are.
