I've been to Cuba 4 times, however this was my first time as a solo traveller. I was looking for an inexpensive 1 week getaway in the middle of nowhere that offered peace and tranquility. This place hit the spot! I read all the reviews prior to going and decided to book the last week of November 2009, I was... more

We thought this was great value for money; the rooms were large and clean. The staff were friendly. The sand and beach were high quality and beautiful. Inexpensive day trips to Cuban cities were offered with knowledgable staff. Perfect for a value vacation. There were two computers with internet access (have to buy the card from the front desk) The... more

This little gem is top on my lists as I have been to different resorts in Cuba, the beach out does all. I am going for my 21st time in November just because of the people they really make you feel like family there. All the complaints of the food are unfounded I am a very picky eater with food... more

This was my 8th time to that resort as people are very nice, the beach is amazing and it is a quiet small resort. I booked my 9th visit for the last week of November and I can confirm that it is going to re-open November 1st and not December 1st like somebody created the wrong rumor. I know Kenia... more

I am a little concerned giving this resort a great review because I don't want to share this gem with anyone. The week we went the weather was fabalous. My wife and I had no concerns with the food, it was always warm and great, and some days I was actually looking foward to them repaeting some of the dishes.... more

We returned to our friends at Brisas Covarrubias for a third time (fifth time to Cuba) the first week of April. Once again, we had a wonderful week, because of the wonderful staff, people and beach. It was truly like returning to a vacation home and, notwithstanding the shortfalls of the resort, we will certainly be returning when we can... more

Got a fantastic last minute deal with Sunwing...long but no hassle flight. It is about a three hour drive from Holquin airport and the positive side to this is that we got to see three hours worth of cuban countryside, and yes the roads can be rough in spots however i live in Edmonton...not a big deal.....this is a chance... more

With apologies to Dickens, "It was the best of resorts, it was the worse of resorts." Reading some of the reviews here on Brisas Covarrubias, one would think that the Tripadvisor server had somehow crashed and inadvertantly merged reviews for some rustic Caribbean hideaway with those describing a Soviet-era gulag. That said, I've been to Covarrubias numerous times with my... more
