We arrived at this hotel and were not impressed right off the bat. The beaches are beautiful and the pool is very nice but we had not been told that the buffet was closed every day for lunch. The only restaurant available in the afternoon was the snack bar by the pool. It was pizza, sandwiches, and hamburgers. The wait... more

My wife and I stayed here for a week in early 2008. We had a fantastic time. This is my second time visiting Cuba and my wife's first time. It was the slow season and therefore the hotel was not operating at full capacity. This resort has their rooms in small 2 storey buildings containing about 20 rooms per building.... more

The positives: The service in general was very excellent while we were there. Best we've ever had, the service made it hard to want to transfer resorts. This could... more

I will try to say in this reviw what wish I could read in others. ROOM: Our groop spread over 3 rooms, all the same great conditions. This hotel is great.

We arrived back Sunday night from a week at the Melia Cayo Santa Maria. We experienced a week of total R&R in paradise. The setting is truly beautiful. The beach is white powder for miles. Take a walk at six in the morning and enjoy the tranquility. Yes there were sand dunes but we found this unique and it rather... more
