Upon arrival in the spacious resort, I requested a very quiet room. This was done immediately by the receptionist, not only was it a quiet room but I had an ocean view. The food at the buffet was surprisingly good with some nice variations. I heard from guests at other resorts that their food was awful. Not here. Mind you,... More

I just got out from prison and wanted to recover, relax and forget but after my stay in Melia Varadero I wish to go to jail again to have some decent food and accommodation. Not to mention the hygiene. It was really comforting to find out that some of the service people in hotel are bigger crooks then the worst... More

This is a terrible hotel with poor services and junk food. It took more than 3 hours to check-in. Just one person behind the desk. We arrived before noon and got our room after 3 PM. Traveling with 2 kids ( 18 months and 4 years ) so you can imagine. Because the delayed check-in process, we couldn't find any... More

I stayed at the Melia Veradero from April 20- April 27. We really enjoyed this resort for the most part. We arrived at the resort and as expected the rooms could only be ready for 3pm. We received our room and decided to upgrade to the oceanview room ( 30 pesos a day extra ). We stayed on the fourth... More

Stayed at the Melia Varadero for one week, ending on April 29. This was to be a relaxing,peaceful stay to unwind and get some sun after a long winter. The hotel staff that were at the front desk for a late entry were very helpful and check-in was quick. Signage is very good in the hotel and you can find... More

We have chosen with my girlfriend this 5* all inclusive hotel resort as the final destination for 3 days after our 2 weeks trip across Cuba. I was really impressed by the quality of the service and the hotel facility itself. In spite some of the free drinks here like mojito or daiquiri have been better on other places in... More

I stayed at Melia Varadero in April 2013 with my partner and 4 month old baby. Hotel and location = nice and clean, overall. Reception = poor! The staff is not at all service oriented. Don't expect to be greeted with a smile. I was ignored every time I went there. I had to wave them down to ask a... More

We stayed at the Melia Varadero at the end of our Cuban trip, three nights by the sea to enable us to draw breath after racing around Western Cuba for a week and a half. We're not beach people. We don't swim or snorkel or sail or play volleyball. If you don't want to do those things the attractions of... More

Since Varadero is a "beach" town, we decided to opt for the "all inclusive" fee which we have never done. Are we happy we did!!! There are several restaurants besides the buffet, but you need to make reservations ahead of time for the restaurants serving dinner.....a couple of days before if possible. My favorite one was the Paella Restaurant for... More
