My husband and I recently returned from a one-week stay at Playa Alameda and had a fabulous time! This was only our second trip to Cuba, and while we've been to various locations in Mexico, Jamaica and Dominican numerous times, we've found that the people in Cuba are by far the friendliest and most helpful we've ever encountered. We stayed... More

DO NOT LET THE GUY AT THE CONCIERGE IN THE LOBBY BOOK YOU A CAR TRIP TO HANAVA. His name is Jannier (not sure of the spelling - it's pronounced "Junior"). He had booked my friends and I a car ride to Havana. I had just given him about $50 worth of allergy pills as he looked in massive pain... More

This is an older hotel, however very clean and nice. The service was beyond amazing for us, staff is very nice. The food was very good, the buffet option were changing every day.The lobby bar is very nice, band playing every night. I recommend this hotel and would return. Kids friendly hotel. More

As this was our fifth trip to Varadero and we had seen this property before from the Trypp where we had stayed twice before we all agreed to give the... More

We stayed at this resort from April 22-29,2012. We had read the reviews and they were mixed but the good outweighed the bad and we thought to give it a shot. We were 2 single girls in our 30's and we were treated so well by the entire staff. The rooms were spacious and clean. The beds were slightly uncomfortable,... More

Room The rooms are very nice at first, but once you’ve been there for a few days you’ll find things that are off. The cleanliness of the rooms is up for debate, they are very humid and smell musty so you’ll have to keep the a/c running constantly. The washrooms are nice, but the showers haven’t been kept up and... More

Thanks to Idlysis and Enrique dining room, Tony bell boy, Colon bartender, Coco Loco Guys, Lorlisyis? Unit 18 Room 1825 and Oriels buffet, you are all stars! This was a smaller resort than what we have stayed at before and... More
