Second time there, first one being in the summer of 2009. First time I was with my wife, this time, two weeks with an excellent friend. VIP Service from the beginning to the end, resort was 100% full but we felt like being the only guests out there! Jonay, the manager, and his team well deserve our congratulations for their... More

Just returned from a weeks stay at the Paradisus. Beautiful, clean resort. I don.t know what people expect but the food was average. Once you can navigate around the buffet and find what u like it's not bad. Pasta is not that good but they do have turkey, pork and beef. Eat at the Raquet club, it is 24 hrs... More

Spent 11 glorious days at the Paradisus Princesa Del Mar and enjoyed every minute of it. Went on our vacation with friends and were able to get rooms in the same building and two doors down from each other. The building we had was very nice as it was away from the construction that is going on day and night... More

Overall this place is typical of all-in resorts: don't expect much and you won't be (too) disappointed. Having said that, I feel it's my duty to inform people of the highlights and lowlights, for everyone's edification. Take out of this whatever you please. The Good: ========= Few. The beach was nice and the waters clear. The resort was nicely laid... More

My husband and I stayed at this resort 2 weeks and just got back two days ago! Overall I would say this is a lovely resort a little small, missing some lighting on the grounds but well kept. Our room spacious,clean but can use some renovation, we had a problem with our matress and when I told them after 10... More

My husband and I arrived at the Princesa del Mar on 30th January after 5 nights in Havana. We were delighted to be told on arrival that we were being upgraded to a Royal Service Suite (as it was my husband’s 50th birthday) and that we would have the services of a butler called William. We were taken to our... More

We returned home two days ago from this FABULOUS resort. It was our first visit to Cuba and thanks to the more than pleasurable experience, there will be many more...and we will definitely be back to Princesa del Mar.... we were captivated with the beauty all around us. The entire resort is well manicured and looked after, not to mention,... More

My family and I just returned from this hotel yesterday. We went from January 30th to Fec 6th 2012. Although we had picked a time when the weather was not at its best, we still had a great time. First off.. The staff here is absolutely incredible. This was my second time to Veradero, and was not disappointed. Food: The... More

Stayed at this resort Jan. 23 to 30th. We chose this resort because of the trip advisor rating, and we had found a good sale - also staying at Melia Hotels before we knew what to expect. This was our first time to Cuba but I have travelled extensively and compared to some other 5 stars I have stayed in... More
