We are returning to the Starfish TOMORROW and are so very excited! This time we are bringing our adult daughter with us to build some memories. The beach, the pools, the food and most of all the staff are AMAZING! We have been to Cuba many times and our choice is Starfish. Other reviews show 3.5 star but no ..... 5 STAR ALL THE WAY

this would be my 8th visit to Starfish and always feels like coming home. The staff makes this resort feel like home. The beach is awesome, the lunch grill wonderful, the special dinners and ala-carte dinners hits the spot. You will not go hungry as many options available for a meal. The Buffet is quite grand (but not mobility friendly) it is quite the trek to get there. I hope the old buffet gets renovated as it was convenient to get to and wheelchair/walker accessible. Never a dull moment at this resort. Anything you need will be taken care of immediately.

I spent my holidays for November 6 until November 13. I can't complain about that amazing beach in this resort. I felt in love with the beach. I can't describe what hi felt when I saw that beach even when loves the drinks that Yoalsis made for me at the beach bar. And also the excellent grilled they serve at the grill for lunch. I would like to thanks the chef Yoel who prepared a wonderful dinner for us by the main pool. Is a big resort and im not to use to travel to these kind of resort must in proud of what I choose.

This Hass to be one of the worst hotels I’ve ever stayed in in Cuba I stayed there for 16 days from the end of October through November 2021 the first night I was there I realized I had a water leak in the ceiling that dripped all over the floor it stayed like that for seven days five different people came to try and fix it the amount of money I pay for a hotel room and I got to live in dripping water all in the bedroom seven days to get it finally fixed couldn’t change to another room was told there was no other rooms the second of last night I stayed there I woke up during the night and I just happen to move my shoes and I found a scorpion in my room in between my shoes the à la cart restaurants were the only good thing about the resort the swimming pool was always full of sand every time you walk in it as you walk in sand and rocks they never clean the pool so this was my first time there and it’ll be my last I will never go back not worth your money the stores the prices on the resort are ridiculous…
