"hotel is using pictures of swimming pool, which they do not have. it belongs to other hotel and if you want to use it, than need to pay extra 35 usd/day per person. Breakfast choice was fine, room clean and with working AC, but...located between 3 night clubs/disco. that means loud music every day between 9pm and 4 am. Even strongest clubbing lovers were tired. breakfast and check in has place in other hotel. in general, I do not recommend."
"Ocean and beach fairy tale 😍
First, the good stuff: the area is gorgeous. Special thanks to Eliezer and Senin. Very competent managers, they speak Russian well, they help with “unsolvable” issues, and in general I have very warm impressions from them. Delicious ice cream and cocktails, depending on the season they serve fish and seafood. February turned out to be off season. There was fish, but not super often. Grill zone - very good meat. And beef and pork and chicken. Pineapples and papaya. Of course the ocean!!!! The biggest plus. That's why we flew for 14 hours. We walked the entire shore - our part of the beach turned out to be the best in our opinion. Wide shore, sun loungers do not stack on top of each other. Quiet.
Now about the negative))) First we checked into a bungalow (southern part of the hotel). Dark, humid, bad air conditioning, poor cleaning. Considering that they left chocolates and money, not very good. The bathroom floors were not washed at all. One day they took away a towel and didn’t bring any... any... at all. Neither for arms, nor for legs. They asked us to move to the main building closer to the ocean. There the situation has completely changed. There were elephants on the bed, and boats were flying. 9!!! Towels for two. Although there were 4 in the bungalow (as it turned out, we were given a foot towel as the main towel in the bungalow). Clean, bright, good air conditioning and views of the pool and ocean.
Now the tips:
- if you are not given something, demand and ask. Most likely they will forget, you need to remind them.
- take a towel with you (at least a small one). Because we were given a towel for 2 days at the beach.
- You can take your own mug, but disposable glasses were thrown away in front of us.
- take plenty of sunscreen. They burned out in the first days.
- the most season is from June to November. December - March winds can be strong. Ideal month - October
- leave a tip. Locals will be happy with chocolates and primitive medicines (no-shpa, paracetamol, spazgan), but it’s not difficult for us
In general, except for the moment of relocation and problems with the towel, everything was excellent. 👍"
"Very old house, furniture that has not been replaced in at least 20 years, indoor safe is broken, TV is broken, toilet 🚽 has no seat cushion, just a magnetic toilet, making it impossible for women to use it, I negotiated with the front desk many times, and only spoke for 10 minutes I sent someone to repair it, then went to the front desk, and pretended to be serious about registering, but still no repairs were done. The food was the same for three meals, the outdoor swimming pool was beautiful, and the beach 🏝️ was beautiful! The bus from Varadero back to Havana only leaves at 8:50 am and 4:30 pm! The bus stopped and went, and it took about 4 hours to cover the 70 kilometers."
"Good resort, clean and modern. Theres restaurants, bars, small shops, pools and its on the beach. The rooms are modern, clean and big.
A bus is available for free to go to Varadero city on a daily basis, multiple times.
The people are approachable and helpful, very lovely people.
The food is diverse, meat and veggies. Tasty vegetables and fruits."
"The cleaning staff was amazing it was mold in my room (which I ignored as we just stayed two days) and they disinfected, cleaned and painted it plus they called the engineer to solved a problem with the water, however some things were broken in my friends’ room as the hairdryer and the window locker. Also I don’t know if was because the didn’t have enough customers but a lot of restaurants and facilities were closed."
"A good, solid chain hotel, with good food and an excellent beach. I booked and received a bungalow - spacious and cozy, with a terrace and in a picturesque corner of the hotel complex. I don’t give the highest ratings due to the fact that everything is a little worn out, and there are problems with the operation of the equipment in the room; not everything worked perfectly and correctly (hair dryer, air conditioning control panel and a couple of light bulbs were not on). But overall, a very solid four!"
"The facility itself is a bit outdated, but everyone is satisfied except for the advantages! All the staff are friendly and the swimming pool and private beach are very good. Food tastes edible rather than delicious. I am satisfied with the price range :)"
"The location of the hotel is great. The ocean and beach are incomparable. All inclusive is not like other tourist destinations due to the nature of Cuba. Don't expect a wide variety of food. Mostly rice, chicken, fish. I liked the pineapples that were always there. Drinks ran out from time to time, but there were always two or three options to choose from. There are a lot of flies, just like everywhere else in Cuba. They try to maintain cleanliness, but still the plates had to be chosen to be cleaner, the cutlery was wiped with napkins. Room cleaning every day. The room is old, but everything looks decent. Not far from the hotel there is street food and a store (although the selection is not very large). There was a program every day, the beer was delicious, there were several cocktails to choose from, but we didn’t try them. We went to the restaurant twice (you can make an appointment at the reception at 13:00, they serve the menu for free). Excellent hotel in terms of price-quality ratio. Thanks to the service staff for the warm welcome"
"This is the second time at the hotel, the food is good, the bar is not bad, there was no toilet seat in the room, before lunch the water in the shower was cool, a good level for an inexpensive hotel"
