This is my fourth time in Cuba, first time at this resort. Was a cousins trip, age range from 20-31 years of age, me being the eldest. People, this is Cuba, standards are much lower than anywhere else. Although this is rated a 4*, it's a Cuban 4*. When you come to Cuba, you sacrifice food for the beach, sun... More

Memories Varadero - May 9-16, 2012 Two adults (34 & 34), child (6) We booked via Sunwing a couple of months prior to departure. I must admit the reviews scared me but found that to be the same of any resort. People can find something wrong with anything. Before we left we made up our minds to go with the... More

People often complain about Cuba and the hotels, however travellers need to understand that a 4 or a 5 star in Cuba isn't the same if you were to go t Mexico or DR. With that being said, for someone who has gone to Cuba 5 times, I was pleasantly surprised. Food: Food was good in comparison to other hotels... More

People often complain the hotel they stayed at in Cuba isn't a "4 star", but what you need to realize is that Cuba's standards are not the same if you were to go Mexico, DR etc. The hotel used to be Salinas, however Memories has just taken over. This is my 5th time in Cuba and with the exception of... More

Myself and 4 other 40ish lady friends went to ?Memories? from May 4th - 11th. Check in was slow and although we did get the building near the beach where we had requested we were put on the ground floor and not second as previously emailed about. Rooms were ok but my room mate and I were only able to... More

The beach was ok.,...sand and water not as beautiful as Santa Maria...but still a beach...gotta love that ! Too many vendors on the beach..some even trying to sell weed to my teenage son!!! The resort is... More

Our family of 5, all adults have returned from a 1 week stay at Memories Varadero, May 8-15. We had two rooms in the 30 block on the ground floor looking out to the neighboring resort currently under construction. Previous reviews have stated this as being noisy--not our experience. Our beds were not as comfortable as our own home, however... More
