Been to Cuatro Palmas in 2019 and loved it. Varadero, probably 9 times. Just booked the Cuatro again, for Nov 7th 2020. Cross my fingers, full planes will be heading to Varadero. Follow the rules and enjoy sunshine and Cuban culture. Great location, clean resort with super friendly staff.

This place is a gem!!! Nice little resort close to the downtown. Lots of markets close by, as well as the Calle 62 and Beatles Bar. The resort is fairly well kept, the rooms are a bit dated, but nicer than the other rooms that I have stayed in at other resorts. The staff are great, friendly and helpful. The staff make you feel like you are family, it is like going to the cottage with family more than staying at a resort. The pool and beach are lovely, food is good and the A la Cart restaurants are great!!!! I highly recommend this resort

Moreover, we are more than happy to know our staff was great, friendly, helpful, making you feel like you are family, like going to the cottage with family more than staying at a resort.

We asked for a sea view but ended up with the best of both, our room over looked the pool and the sea. Lovely room, very spacious. The cleaners were excellent. Food was good and staff friendly. All inclusive worked well. The person who ran the cocktail bar was particularly helpful and friendly. Entertainment was good. Overall a lovely stay and would recommend.

Cuatro Palmas is the jewel of Varadero. We have had 15 visits in 11 years. We've watched it transform from a diamond in the rough to the jewel of Varadero,with many upgrades and renovations that have been done. It is located in the heart of the Varadero strip. You are surrounded by all the fine restaurants, night clubs and many souvenir markets, which are all in walking distance. The rooms are exceptionally clean with comfortable beds, hot water, new ACs and new fridges. Based on it's unique layout you can be anywhere on the resort from your room in under two minutes. Whether its the front lobby or the beautiful pristine beach. They have recently installed many new palapas (beach umbrella's) on the beach as well, so there is more than enough for all the guests. The entire staff are warm and friendly, from the front desk, to the housekeepers, buffet staff, A La carte staff, bartenders, groundskeepers, pool staff, public relations and the Resort Manager. As well the bell hop, Alberto, my Cuban brother. We have traveled all through the caribbean but always return to Cuatro Palmas at least once a year and some times twice, seeing we are so well treated by who we consider our second familia as well our second home. We are hoping we can get back there this year to not only enjoy this wonderful resort but to visit with our Cuban Familia. If you plan to visit Varadero, this resort is a "must go to" place. I guarantee you'll return!…
