Hotel Playa Vista Azul

Large compound with independent premium bungalows and three storey hotel rooms. Dance class and musical activities beside beach. Wide selection of restaurants.

The friendly and nice crew, buffet is the best for a complete breakfast, take your coffee after your breakfast at Coffee Benny(Yadyra) Best lunch is the BBQ in the main beach, Bar at the main beach and the lobby are the best. The room services is sometimes limited, but nothing bothers. It’s good if you speak a little Spanish since some of the crew doesn’t speak English much. The Ocean view is magnificent, don’t loos the sunset at the lobby’s pools

We are a family of 4 who vacation 3-4 times per year, typically staying at 4-5 star hotels. We are very aware of the food shortages and current economic situation in Cuba, so I write this review with this in mind: Advantages of this resort: the most spectacular (seaweed free) beach that I’ve ever experienced - turquoise water as far as the eye can see, friendly staff, clean rooms and clean common areas, excellent entertainment both during the day and at night, two fantastic pools. Disadvantages: the food wasn’t fantastic (you could get a freshly made omelet or crepe for breakfast, and some grilled chicken or beef or pasta for lunches and dinners), the drinks were unexceptional (there seemed to be slightly better options at the premium lounge) and there seemed to be a toilet paper shortage in the public washrooms. For us, it was 100% worth it for the beach. It was evident that the resort is attempting to be economical, and you can’t fault them - they appear to be trying to save in ways that have the least impact on guests (I.e short window of time that the buffet is open, leaving half rolls of toilet paper in the rooms etc). If you are a Canadian travelling to Cuba PLEASE - the staff really count on tips from patrons. We learned that they CANNOT CASH IN CANADIAN COINS! We saw tons of people tipping with loonies and toonies! PLEASE! Either bring AMERICAN bills or CANADIAN bills! The staff have piles of coins in tips that they can’t use!!!!

This was our 6 th trip to this hotel . Another great reception by Arasay and Diana in the premium section. We had another great room that was looked after by Lesdiany and Yaleski. There was no shortages of drinks at the hotel . Thanks to the many bartenders and waitresses ( Amaury, Richel, Yosnier, Yerlih, Yaylin, Livia, Carlos, Onay, Dianaleidys,and others. There was plenty of food available at the restaurants and buffet. Thanks to Yaima, Doralis, lizandes, Milexy, and Adaily at the Caribean restaurant. The hotel has been upgrading and refreshing the facility . A special thanks to Geidys for the great dinner put on for people returning again to this hotel. there was entertainment nightly in the main lobby and theater. We can't wait to return to this facility again . This was our 6th time we have flown with Sunwing with no issues at all.
