Beautiful weather, great pools... Unfortunately our room had awful AC, after arguing ..our room was changed to another one that was just as bad...we told them..but gave up...1 week passes buy fast, who wants to spend it helping a hotel do their fixups.. Beach entertainers seemed content to just play volleyball amongst themselves, main bar closes at 10:30pm..the alternate snack... more

Myself and my friend stayed at OGT from June 8th to 23rd and I must say we enjoyed every minute of our holiday. We arrived to torrential rain but it wasnt long until the sun was shining! Check in was quick and we had a golf cart take us to our room which was in the perfect location -close to... more

We stayed here just before the season was starting so it wasn't as busy as some people describe. The first thing I would say is that the hotel is very nice, the rooms are lovely and the staff were all helpful to us. It was great to have the swim up bar and snack bar as options for shelter to... more

Arrival: This Review is mainly for our last trip...April 10 -24 2009. We were on the last of 3 buses arriving at the resort. When I stepped off the bus I was greeting by the Guest Services Manager. She asked for our hotel vouchers and told us to relax why she checked us in. There was 22 of us....Love VIP... more

Amazing, we had a fantastic holiday. Ok one of the pools wasn't open but we still had a fab time. It is low season and hence things weren't up & running to full standard as they would be in peak, a la cartes were one a night all based in the asian restaurant, this suited us just fine. The entertainment... more

We stayed there from June 13th-20th and flew with Air Canada. After reading some of these reviews I was feeling a bit skeptical due to the fact many were saying there was hardly anybody there. We asked one of the workers and they said the resort holds about 1300 people. At the information meeting the Air Canada rep said there... more

On reading some of the previous reviews I have a wonder at the short-sighted attitude that appears to exist in some of these reviewers. This is our third visit to Cuba and on each visit we are struck by the open friendliness of the people, not only those who work in the leisure industry but also the local people. I... more

My husband and I went for a week from June 06.2009 thru june 16th with family and we can't say enough good things, it was the low season, but even being that, it was fabulous. Great food, the sports bar was the best place to have a burger, hot dog or steak and fries, just like home, would definitely recommend... more

This was my second time at the Grand Playa Turquesa, the other trip being July 2007. Our trip was June 6th-13th this time. Weather: I was a bit worried with the weather reports of all the rain. It wasn't that bad. One day it rained heavily from 2pm until 10pm. That was the worst of it. Usually clouds would roll... more
