Cuba

I have visited Cuba many times and the Melia Cayo Coco is the best resort! Good food, great service, amazing beach, nice rooms and comfortable beds. Special mention of Yanquel in customer service, Roolondo and Osvaldo in the lobby bar, Jorge and Dailin in the dining room, and Julio the cook!

Gran Muthu Almirante Beach Resort

Hello May 8th Been to the Blau over 10 times through out the years. Made many, many friends and treated like family. you can tell though that there are shortages of certain things. But again...its Cuba but you will never go hungry the burgers and fries are good. Bring them some razors, meds,used shoes and you will have friends for life. I have been going to Cuba since 1992 and the Blau service is great. Orestas (wait staff) , Myra (Animation), and Ridell is the best Pina colada maker at the beach bar. Norberto makes the best mojitos right on the beach. Beach was clean, lots of shade umbrellas, Credit card is only accepted at the government stores in the resorts. The best way to exchange you money is through workers at the resort. 1 can dollar is only 20 pesos at the lobby. Ask a worker for best rate you can get 70 pesos for 1 Canadian dollar. this is a good opportunity for the locals to make some real money as there peso is useless. they use the Canadian dollar to buy things online which they can do now. I just used pesos for tips so dont go exchanging all your money. this is some good information. So for me the Blau service, beach,friendliness, room , pool was great Ala cart I have some lobster in my spaghetti seafood. Was surprised. You may be too...oh yes ..FREE wifi for 10 hours a day. Not much lag but resort was not completely full. All Blau staff wore there masks all the time.

Very friendly ,good food ,everything great five times their.

The hotel amenities and services are great!

We love Playa Pesquero. It's in a less populated part of Cuba, southeast of Havana/Varadero. If you're looking for 'swinging nearby nightlife' this is not the place for you. But if you're looking for a gorgeous resort, beautiful white sand beach, snorkeling on the premises, and an ice cream shop ... This is for you! We find the staff very friendly; eager to assist, energetic, and helpful. As this was our first trip South since the start of Covid, we weren't sure how we would feel. Covid protocols were in place, staff consistently wore masks, cleanliness was evident everywhere as it always has been, and we felt completely comfortable and sooo happy to be there. Most guests wore masks when indoors, maybe 10% did not, and we all smiled and enjoyed this wonderful place. Playa Pesquero just 'feels right' to us, and we are as comfy as if we were home. We always book a Superior Room. Its layout, size and separate closet/dressing room area is fantastic. The rooms are traditional and a bit dated, but they ooze Cuban style and we love them. The new Adult Premium section is more modern, so if you're looking for updated rooms, you may want to check that out. The buffet and a la carte restaurants were great. We did notice some lack of variety here and there, likely due to imports from Russia being shut down, but we had many lovely meals and were pleased with the fresh fish, grilled pork, pasta station, flaming crepes with dinner, and breakfast is always great. Bacon and smoked salmon were missed this trip. The resort was not full when we visited so we enjoyed being able to get lounge chairs/sun huts any time of the day, and we also enjoyed private cabanas at the pool. Definitely a favourite resort!

Gorgeous beach. Staff was incredible. Our favourite waiter was Osneil!! Osneil went out of his way everyday and so friendly. Cleaning staff very friendly.

The two weeks were so pleasant and relaxing. The staff so welcoming and polite. Truly appreciated the work of Alfredo who kept our room in perfect condition. Such a wonderful gentleman. Nora who took our restaurant reservation was so friendly and efficient! Looked forward to seeing Renaldo, bright and early in the morning to help us with our beach chairs.

First time coming down here or anywhere really and it was beautiful!!The staff are the best people you will meet in the world. Makes it better they are so nice to each other aswell not just us. they are so happy to do their job.Jose,Ernesto,carlos(both of them),maria , denise , brian, migeul , yordenais and MANY more are AMAZING!!!! Made us feel like we were VIP section haha. So much to do like the disco was so worth the money (it has AC) pilar beach was beautiful. You can swim with the fish and other creatures. Carlos will make you a special drink if you don't know what you want and it'll come out great each time!! The sports bar is beautiful and the drinks there are so cool. Coolest thing was the pool bar just swim up and drink the whole day and relax. This was an amazing experience for me and i will 100% come back. so many friendly people i wanna see again!!

Beautiful resort with great service, WiFi needs to be upgraded and improved. We will stay at this place in the future.
