A great hotel for a vacation in Cuba.
We rested there in the first half of November.
I liked everything. The beach is sandy, big, there was always enough space for everyone, cocktails in the bars are delicious, there is a choice of dishes in the restaurant, but not much. But. There have always been mussels (fried right in front of you). The rooms were cleaned for 4, but this did not bother us, they spent most of their time not in it. There are also Ala Carte restaurants that you can go to once, no more. The choice of dishes there is not great. The pools are good, but we hardly ever swam in them.
In general, I recommend the hotel. But be prepared that this is not the 5 that we are used to
Great hotel!
1. The staff is very polite and hospitable, the bartenders are professionals in their field) there are those who know Russian (!!).
2. There are two beaches: on the big one there is clean sand, there is a trash can; on the small beach the sand is less clean and partially rocky shore. Also, both beaches have staff who carry sun beds and clean them of sand.
3. The food is great. there are days when they serve Italian or Japanese cuisine for dinner (the usual food remains, don't worry). Burgers, sausage rolls and French fries are being prepared near the pool. It was Christmas on December 24 (for Catholics), the hotel hosted a "Christmas dinner"! A whole pig carcass and a beef leg were cooked (the meat was pink, cooked properly), and lobster halves were served (it was sooooo delicious)
4. The rooms are clean and spacious, and the maids clean the rooms every day (around lunch/afternoon).
5. In the evening, various entertainment events take place, the staff dances a flash mob or gives some kind of performance.
6. in the lobby (where the reception is), opposite the bar there is an awesome infinity pool, and opposite the restaurant there is an eight pool (we called it that because of its unusual shape))
In Cuba, Spanish is the main language, and English is slightly less common. Therefore, I advise you to download Yandex Translator and download Spanish, English and Russian in advance for offline translation.
+ good service, delicious food, well-groomed territory, clean pools, there is wifi almost throughout the territory, there are almost always sun beds on the beach, very tasty cheeses, sausages and wine (all imported mainly from Italy), live music in the evenings in the lobby and in the dining room
- the quality of room cleaning, torn sheets, tired rooms (sockets fall off in places), animation for children (almost none), monotonous meals (rice, pasta, chicken, beans)
