Hi dear Memories trinidad del mar people!!!! This resort is amazing, everything is so close to the beach, room, cafeteria. People that work there are very friendly and most important all the managers are just walking around and make sure everything is in the place. The bar is open 24 hrs. good pizza and french fries. Food was amazing lots of sea food selections. Entertainment at night starts little bit late at 10 pm but that was ok with us. We will go back for sure!!!! [Details]

This resort is in the middle of a transition from a Brisis to a Memories 41 of the total rooms(241) were being used.Upper management chose to restrict food available to a small buffet. (snack bar was open) It would have been better to close and reopen. We were here in 2016 and there were renovations at that time.The services available at that time far exceeded what was available two years later.(2018) Disappointed. [Details]

Exellent local staff.They are able to do wonders with what they have been provided with.Rooms are kept very clean.Beach is fantastic.The main town of Trinidad is a 10 min. taxi ride from the resort. A world UNESCO site. Great food and shopping.
The weak points
The resort is very tired and in need of this renovation to remain in business. Public washrooms at the resort are typical of the ones found off the resort in Cuba.No soap,hand dryers,or paper.No internet cards available for two weeks.

Pleasantly surprised with resort after reading some of the reviews. Been to Cuba 5 times and this was the cleanest place yet. Small resort but has everything you need. A day trip into Trinidad or to Topes de Collantes are a must. Amazing area. So different from the north shore. [Details]

We just got back from a 6 star vacation at the Brisas Trinidad. The rooms are not a copy of the Chateau Frontenac, but are clean, with daily housekeeping, air conditioned, balconies, all your survival needs. The beach is everybody's dream, a mile or more of white sand, clean and well maintained that you can walk at your leisure without annoyance. Trinidad is just a bus ride or taxi away, which is a whole story of its own, restaurants bars and nightly music and dancing in the center square. The town is safe, clean and hassle free. Can`t say enough about the Brisas staff, these people are just a pleasure to get to know. Educated, knowledgeable and funloving, I sometimes got the feeling they felt sorry for us, probably because they live their lives in a tropical paradise and we get to return to the snow and short days of winter. Great food, they have two chefs in their buffet who can cook anything you can concoct, and the ala-carts are fantastic. Nightly entertainment with a pair of amazing break dancers, a violinist and a base player that should be playing New York and an amusing magician who fills in between sets. Thanks Brisas. Heading back next year. [Details]

Our trip to Brisas Trinidad was great. I have been to other places in Cuba and this was the best. Resort was so pretty and well maintained. Me and a friend went. It is a 3 hour bus ride from Santa Clara, if you can land in Cienfuegos it is a lot closer. City of Trinida is a 15 min ride by taxi or rent a moped. Shows were good, beach was very nice. Food was ok. we always found something and were never hungry. This is not a party Hardy resort if thats what you would be looking for. All in all it was a good time! I would go back. [Details]

We were nervous after having read the reviews but we were pleasantly surprised. By far the nicer of the 3 hotels in the area. 8th trip to Cuba - and by far one of the best. We normally do 4 stars. We were in the 8000 block -quiet yet close. No refrigerator(only down point -other rooms did)but lots of hot water and room spacious and clean. A/C worked well and food was good for Cuba. Beach was lovely and the warmest water we have had. Great biking in the area. Trinidad and the mountain tours were great. [Details]

Yes we read the reviews before going and we were a bit scared of what we would find! But the resort was beautiful and clean, the food was ok with fish,pork,beef and chicken at lunch and dinner, and lots of salad stuff. We had hot water all week!(roomed in the 8000 section) Pool was clean and is set up in sections so there is lots of small private seating around it. Beach is amazing and clean. The water is calm and warm, seen lots of starfish. We took gifts for tipping and put them in little xmas bags and they seemed to like them more then money(earrings for the ladies and small perfumes for the men) took the trinidad tour and it was interesting 15$each, but much more fun to get a private guide. Find a life gaurd at the beach to arrange this (cheap)he will also take you to a lobster dinner (10$)in a small town 5 min away called Paladar"la rosa". THIS IS A MUST DO(they picked us up in a 1953windsor car so cool) The scooters ar also cheap 13$hr 16$ 2hr 25$ day plus deposit Old men with YOUNG cuban girls were not well recieved by the other tourists. Would return to this resort [Details]

I had a great time at hotel. The staff were pleasant, helpfull and entertaining..The room was large and kept very clean. The only problem was the plumbing when you go to take shower if you are on the second floor. it is a hand held shower and the pressure is poor. I loved the set-up of the hotel and the beach was fabulous. [Details]

Room smells like an ashtray full of wet cigars. Water runs only in a bathtub. Drinks are awful. If I ask about gin & tonic, I expect at least 2 components but not water and lemon juice. Food at the buffet is barely warm. Staff is eating with clientèle at the same buffet and at the same time. If you paid more than 600$ for this hotel, you paid too much. Not coming back for sure.

being in Cuba 14 times at different places, I knew pretty much what to expect from my vacation.It was still ok considering we paid $700...but i have seen way better resort for the same price in previous trips...i am not a picky person but i find ignorant, careless or plain stupid to reheat and recycle at least 4 times on 4 days left-over sea-food and chicken;best receipt for a nice food poisoning...and that did happen to many...pool was ok and clean, but don`t attempt the Jacuzzi...most of every staff were very nice and helpful except 3 or 4 of them at the bars that obviously didn`t like their job or serving foreigners...these resort is a vacation spot for Cubans and i found quite disrespectful from some staff to always serve them before any foreigners even if you were waiting in line for 5 minutes and that on every occasions tip or no tip...i did read that before leaving on trip adviser and found those remarks totally true since we were also treated that way...other than that everything else was just fine...ah, one last nagging ; airline impose on us a non schedule stop to Havana on the way there and on the way back as a result we got to the hotel at 7 am instead of 1am and we arrive in Canada at 1 am instead of 7pm...:-( having known that i wouldn`t took that trip...
