I travelled from canada on the 26th Sept for one week to this hotel, I have two children 23mths and 3.5 yr old we are British family currently residing in Toronto, reading reviews can be quite off putting if others have huge expectations or a bad holiday, so I am going to be honest and fair. The hotel is beautifully... more

First of all nothing is perfect so you can't expect "high quality" like you have back at home considering the fact that Cuba is a communist country. By all means Arenas Doradas was a great resort :) full of fun & so much to do DAY AND NIGHT!!! and the drinks say no more. The people there (staff) were very... more

I stayed at the Arenas Doradas for 1 week on Sept 14 to Sept 21 with a friend of mine. We arrived at the hotel at around 11:00am and our room was not ready yet, we did not want to waste any of our vacation time wauting around so we decided to get changed and head to the pool for... more

My wife and I stayed at Arenas Dordas for one week, this was our first trip to Cuba, here is our review. We arrived late in the evening and were checked into our room in an efficient professional manner, remember, there is a language barrier and you need to concentrate when speaking with the staff. We were taken to our... more

Myself and my fiancee visited Arenas Doradas for 2 weeks form manchester uk, when we arrived we were greeted by friendly staff who gave us a cocktail straight away which i thought was a good touch. the staff were friendly, the grounds of the hotel are huge, and it took us 15 mins to finf our room, all the rooms... more

I found the waiters and front desk very helpful. Yes we did have to tip but we found the staff to go out of... more

First off, I need to say that I know this is Cuba and I know that the price I payed is very low (900$ for a week). We have been to Cuba a few times now (this was actually our fift trip to Cuba in 7 years). Upon arrival, we were greated with cold towelettes (we arrived late at night).... more

My wife and me spend two weeks in this hotel. We have been travelling quite a lot the last years but never stayed in a hotel this dirty with such unfriendly staff. Definitely not 4 stars and in any other country this place would be closed because of a total lack of hygiëne. When we arrived our room was completely... more

Never again. This is no 4 star, lucky if they get 3. Food is horrible, cannot eat much of what they offer, even the a la carte is horrible. Mosquitoes and flies all over, stagnant water in their so called stream running through compound is mosquito heaven. Had to change room, no a/c and smelly, newer room better. No a/c... more
