We chose the hotel based on the desire to go this time, let's say, on a romantic tour. That is, it is desirable that it be quiet in the mornings and afternoons, and not too loud in the evening. We both love children, but this time we wanted to take a break from the joyful children's cries. The hotel, of course, is not Adult only, but what they wanted, they got. It was quiet and romantic : ) Largely because May is no longer the season, and the huge territory of the hotel seemed deserted due to not too many vacationers. The room is standard with a standard number of necessary utensils: iron, TV, hair dryer, etc. From any other room in the beach five, it was distinguished only by wicker furniture. Maybe this is how the Cubans decided to emphasize their colonial flavor? )) Separately, I will say about food! This is wah! The main restaurant in the building: breakfast, lunch, dinner. There is fast food from morning to night. On the territory further there is a fish restaurant, open from noon until 6 pm, a mini-restaurant Remberto with a now fashionable attraction "participate in cooking". Everything is very diverse: there are, of course, traditional chicken-beef-pork, but I more came off the list of lobsters, squids, fish of all stripes. Fruits were also very welcome, from the usual apples to papaya and guava. There are only two pools: for adults and for children, but they were enough for water-chlorine procedures. The sea is right next to it. It was difficult to find claims to the sand and the entrance. Nearby is the rental of yachts, boats, catamarans, and you can dive with scuba gear.

The dining room of the hotel is quite large and very comfortable, we were fed, though simple, but satisfying and tasty. Buffet. For breakfast daily fruits, cheeses, sausages, juices, etc. For lunch, dinner, meat or seafood, they also gave us a lot and variety to drink). The beach is very close, during the holidays I didn’t plunge into the pool), evening programs and discos are also with a bang, so we had a great rest!

Again I am late with a review, but I can’t help but write....We dreamed of seeing the country of our childhood, how to say, to return to the past - this is about Cuba. The nature is wonderful, but the buildings... shabby and scary. People drink rum and smoke cigars and seem to be happy with everything, even if they are poor.

Again I am late with a review, but I can’t help but write....We dreamed of seeing the country of our childhood, how to say, to return to the past - this is about Cuba. The nature is wonderful, but the buildings... shabby and scary. People drink rum and smoke cigars and seem to be happy with everything, even if they are poor. Everywhere you can see couples of different ages kissing and hugging for hours) Prices are stable everywhere, you don’t have to look for cheaper or more expensive rum, cigars and souvenirs, and this is a plus.
I really liked the hotel, clean, neat and spacious) The staff just does their job, without unnecessary emotions, smiles and any unnecessary gestures, either they are tired, or we (the tourists are already so tired of them that they have no strength) I got the impression.
The bar has very tasty coffee, also a cocktail "Pinacolada" and "Mojito" my son and I drank non-alcoholic, and my husband appreciated the beer, it seems not diluted) I really liked the grill bar on the seashore, and everything is fresh and the view is mesmerizing) Near the hotel there is shopping center, you can buy everything you need and souvenirs and rum, the prices are the same everywhere. And they also have very tasty coffee, we took $ 8 0.5kg packs) Ask for a receipt for rum and cigars, they may be required at customs.
Now let's go to the beach. . . and this is the most important thing that can be included in the minuses. The sea is gentle, the sand is pleasant... BUT! the local population arrives with children and sacks, lie down right under the sun loungers, litter, scream, turn on the music on the tape recorders they brought with them, each his own... it's just a madhouse (
And in the sea... they don’t swim, they stand up to their necks in water in groups, they drink and smoke, and they throw cans of drinks directly into the water... we were shocked by this! (((
An excursion to Havana was taken from their guide Gladita, a very attentive woman. Thanks her. We took a retro car and, oh, horror... this old vessel dragged to the capital for a very long time, it was very hot and stuffy in Havana, although there are very beautiful places, we must see! ) We didn’t get to the cigar factory, they explained to us that it is not always may work, so find out in advance. The tour turned out to be very, very tiring...
We also took a "Jeep Safari" - we liked it very much. ) We drove jeeps through the villages, sailed in motor boats along the Kanimar River, swam in the sea, rode horses, and climbed into caves. ! ) We were delighted with the impressions)
No matter what, we still remember our vacation, with its pluses and minuses, the country, nevertheless, is interesting in its own way! )
I wish you a successful journey and a lot of impressions! )

We rested with a company, which is probably why they did not pay attention to all sorts of negative trifles. I will not describe how we rested, but I will try to give useful information that I myself was looking for, since a lot of people write all sorts of nonsense. on arrival they gave a room on the 1st floor, it's damp, the next day they changed it without additional payments and any questions to the 4th floor with a sea view.

The rooms are a little old, but very decent, cleaned well. the food is very good: a lot of fruits, desserts, all kinds of cheeses, seafood is always, fresh meat and fish are fried in front of you.... It will take a little time, but it's fresh and tasty. We tried everything in the bars!!!! ! any alcohol, the choice is huge, there is a lot of rum, vodka, whiskey - the quality is excellent ! ! We did not swim in the pool, it is small, we only need the sea. the beach is rocky, but if you walk 50 meters from the hotel - sand, the bottom is beautiful, the entrance is good. weather - 4 days great weather, the sea did not storm, then 2 days of rain, but not very annoying, we went on excursions these days, then a week of good weather. According to the weather, they explained to us that no one is immune from bad weather, even in the season. we were satisfied. sea .24, 26 degrees. It was warm in the evening, we read the reviews and took on warm clothes, dragging extra weight in vain. nearby, 30 meters away, there is a shopping center where you can buy clothes, souvenirs (rum and cigars, the prices are the same everywhere) prices for souvenirs are about the same, if we didn’t buy in the harbor, then we bought almost the same thing at the hotel. Were in Havana, on Cayo Largo-super. We rented rare cars to drive around Varadero. We talked with tourists who were in the Dominican Republic, they didn’t really like it. Barbara is sitting in the office on the 4th floor of the hotel, she knows Russian, she can help if necessary, we went with her to Havana, cheaper than the tour operator, but there is almost zero information. it has almost no quality. they took Mantanzas from her, they didn’t like it at all, it seems cheaper, but you pay extra for the entrance everywhere yourself, almost doesn’t tell anything, just drives, they flew to Cayo Largo with a tour operator, they were satisfied. You choose. Internet in the hotel 10 euros per hour, very slow. We did not go looking for flaws, but they were, and the mood was not spoiled. Have a nice holiday everyone.

We built our route with a stop in Havana and further to the beaches of Varadero. And not in vain!
If there is nostalgia for the USSR, then this must be done, to visit Cuba.
Havana. Saratoga Hotel. The hotel has a revolutionary history. Somehow, somehow, someone gathered at the hotel, smoked cigars, whispered and sang revolutionary songs. Now the hotel is nice. Cheap. On the top floor there is a bar and a swimming pool. In the bars of the hotel, bartenders write the amounts arbitrarily, in one amount. Russian "write" a little, as "brothers". Americans and Europeans are being "pressed" to the fullest. They steal! They stole a blouse and underwear from the room.
Havana is charming in its devastation. If the house is being repaired, then only the facade. Everything is dirty and splattered with paint: from the stairs to the road. Around the destroyed houses, poverty and poverty. Shops with iron doors and lack of goods. We went to one. Ba! A pack of pasta on the shelf, a lot of alcohol and salt.
Take cigars only at the factory, as sellers on the streets sell cigars with banana leaves.
Around the smell of passion, bare shoulders, large priests, trances, paintings, the offer of drugs, crowds of people, heat.
Men wear T-shirts a la wrestling, women are all in shorts. All are cleanly dressed. Like in the USSR. Clothing cult!
We bought a tour of Havana and regretted it. Nothing interesting! The guide, the son of a Russian woman and a Cuban, a former student of Moscow State University, did not tell anything interesting.
Money. Cards are not accepted. Banks charge interest for withdrawing money, make copies of the passport. Banks are open until 3pm. Saturday until 12. It is better to change at the airport BEFORE LEAVING the arrivals hall.
People. Everyone is supported by the state. Salaries are the same and constant. Waiters do not pay attention to customers. They cackle, tell something, when meeting with another employee they "freeze" with the one in the conversation that they carried to the client "dangles" in their hands until they talk to each other. Sellers cheat in stores by 12%. They press some button and the check comes out too high.
Tips. They are crazy about the dollar. But it is better to come with the euro (for exchange). We brought a tip of one buck. They don't have chocolate. Chocolate "Alenka" caused the most delight. Fishnet tights and red nail polish have a special status. The hotel staff asked to sell the lacquer and tights. If we had these things, we could sell a ton.
Number. Were there major party officials in Soviet hotels? So it is in Cuba and has to be. Massive wooden doors, wood panels, marble. Poor houseplants in pots. Spray painted yellow walls. Plumbing is old. Beach towels must be carried with you. If you lose, you pay $5.
Food. Pretty! The embargo on the import of goods from all over the world has done its job. The hotels have local, non-GMO and antibiotic-free products. The taste of the meat is incomparable. The fish is awesome. All sorts of cheese. Fruit mountains. Garnishes, grilled varied.
Beach. The prettiest place to swim in the Atlantic. Calm, quiet. No waves. Good depth. Clean beach. Good sun loungers. The beach bar is good.
Peculiarities! INCREDIBLE music program. From morning to evening. For every taste. Only live voice. In the bar in the evening concerts of wonderful bands. The theater performs with the program of the show. During the day: guitars, soul, jazz, bards. In the evening, there is a live performance of classical music on the piano in the hall.
Minus. Lots of elderly communists from Europe. They constantly sit in the lobby and talk about communism. Their fighting girlfriends are with them.
Lack of internet throughout the hotel. Only in one place - the lobby and until 20.00 hours.
There are many "Russian" Canadians who attack any Russian and start... Fear of returning, Putin is a tyrant, Chechens are shooting in the streets, corruption, there is no medicine....and other blah blah blah... They are so Thus, they state their vision of Russia. They only understand that the source is American or Canadian! I such "I keep silent" on the full program. Why pity them? Russia and I have gone through all the pain, fear, fractures, formation. And they? Like cockroaches... Then they sob! They want to go home. And it turns out? He was an officer, escaped, hid in Colombia, moved to America, sold secrets, no one needs him, moved to Canada, collects sockets. Or... Mom took me away at the age of 14, I don’t know Russian, I love a German girl, I want her, but she’s in Canada, I live on $ 400, I get 3400, I save the rest, I didn’t take the girl, because my mother paid for a ticket to Cuba. Why didn't you pay for the girl and take it with you? So I saved money for old age this month. I have no money....Or... Associate professor, spoke out against the head of the department, removed the defense of his doctoral dissertation on SCIENTIFIC COMMUNISM, got offended and escaped through Turkey, roamed around, now washes beer barrels in Canada. And other snot about misfortune. Is that necessary? All are dressed like pigs. 720 dollars scraped together to come to a la the USSR? What kind of officer is he if he betrayed his homeland. Correctly! Gather sockets. A Russian officer lives in Russia and is proud that he did not betray his homeland. but he can also collect sockets, but he lives in Russia. Another! He gives money for Apple shares, and he himself dies of love and masturbates in his hand. But saving money for old age! On figs they are necessary to you in an old age? The third! Scientific communism! How much Russia has lost without your dissertation! Living in a hostel now in Canada, without the family you left behind in Russia and my beer container.
When you tell them about Russia, which survived, fell ill, suffered its own, then all of them... ALL!! ! Sobbed! Russia can live without them, but they cannot live without it!
And so? General impression? The country of one visit. Was and forgot. But no. . . There is something tempting in this country. . .

In 10 days we went on 5 excursions: El Nicho Falls and Trinidad, Swimming with dolphins, Cayo Largo Island for 1 day, Havana and Del Pinar for 2 days, an individual excursion on a Yacht with fishing, lobsters and a visit to the island of Cayo Blanco.

I'll start right away with the flight. We flew with Aeroflot, the flight is very difficult. We flew on an Airbus, the seats are not very comfortable, the food is disgusting. But the screens work, there are more than 50 films, you can choose something to watch. We arrived in Havana around 9pm. Transfer from Havana to Varadero about 2 hours.

I'll start right away with the flight. We flew with Aeroflot, the flight is very difficult. We flew on an Airbus, the seats are not very comfortable, the food is disgusting. But the screens work, there are more than 50 films, you can choose something to watch. We arrived in Havana around 9pm. Transfer from Havana to Varadero about 2 hours. We arrived at the hotel at midnight and were checked in quickly. By the way, those who arrive during the day are served a welcome glass of champagne. The staff is very friendly, but no one speaks Russian. More or less in English. The room is good, with a balcony, we lived on the 3rd floor. The view was on the territory of the hotel, the sea was not visible, but there was a lot of greenery on the territory, so we had no complaints. The room was cleaned every day, the marble floor was polished to a shine. Twisted from towels all sorts of differences. The hotel is large, green area, 3 swimming pools. A lot of varied food, cocktails are all super, alcohol is not spared. They do nothing, they do everything right in front of you. Russian percent 10, the rest are Canadians, Mexicans and others. Canadians are very noisy people. . They come in whole groups, make noise all night, clamor, horror) It’s a pity we only had a week, we didn’t have time to see everything. Yes, they even arrived, only the hurricane passed, so it was forbidden to swim for 2 days. But then, heaven! The sea is turquoise, you go knee-deep, you can see to the bottom. From excursions we took Havana for 2 days, with the Tropicana show. Spare no money, take a tour with the show. Just a fairy tale! Havana will not leave you indifferent either. Too bad there was very little time. We also went to an Indian village. Nothing, you can see. The guides are all great, they speak Russian, I answer everything, even the most ridiculous questions. By the way, a terrible guide at the hotel from TezTour Sandra! She mixed up all the excursions for us, the time of departure, forgot to sign us up for one excursion, we never got on it. Thankfully it was free. I liked everything, I will go again.

The journey is of course tiring, and fatigue is acutely felt only in the transfer bus to the hotel. The flight from Boryspil was overshadowed by the cancellation of the flight from Amsterdam. I had to stand all morning in a long queue at the ticket office and resolve the issue of departure. The next day, the flight took place, but in a circle, through Central America.

The journey is of course tiring, and fatigue is acutely felt only in the transfer bus to the hotel. The flight from Boryspil was overshadowed by the cancellation of the flight from Amsterdam. I had to stand all morning in a long queue at the ticket office and resolve the issue of departure. The next day, the flight took place, but in a circle, through Central America. In total, the delivery took 24 hours, with an additional tour of the Panama airport (however, this was short and curious). Amsterdam has a beautiful huge airport, with an abundance of shops, a small museum, well, a very expensive McDonald's (at our prices), so 5 hours for a transfer is not burdensome. It is a pleasure to fly on a KLM transatlantic flight - it is convenient, the food is delicious and often, there is a personal video and even a simple language tutorial, so you won’t be bored. Attention: luggage flies separately; when buying in the duty free of Boryspil, if the special package is broken, leave everything in Amsterdam (in general, it will fly to Havana). On the way back, EVERYTHING that you buy in Havana's duty free (they don't have special packages), leave it back in Amsterdam. So buy all purchases in advance and put in luggage. . It is mandatory to take things at a minimum in hand luggage, as luggage in Havana can be delivered with a delay. However, the delayed luggage is regularly delivered to the hotel at the reception, in this case in the morning (you need to arrange this moment with the representative of the airline and calmly go to the hotel). It is not necessary to wait for luggage at the airport. The hotel is excellent. True open restaurant "Trinidad" was under renovation. The food is tasty and varied (within reason). In autumn, the Atlantic is warm, we managed to swim in calm and light storms. Every day at the beach is unique! Cocktails were all sorts of successful and unsuccessful. It depends on the staff. Little depends on the tip - no matter how long the crooked hands do not straighten, the desire to work does not arise, and vice versa, the pleasant staff will do everything for you in the best even without a tip. In case of poor service, immediately change the point. In the evening, the light went out several times, even cool, in all the hotels on the coast (force majeure). After that, my wing was de-energized and the number was changed. At the same time, the keys to the previous one were not required, so for a day I lived in two rooms at the same time (I was slowly transferring things). You can communicate with the staff in English-Spanish surzhik (very funny), in Russian it’s somehow insipid. The second room was better, you need to take the 4th-5th floor; the second is stuffy; the first one (above the groundfloor) is the lost money. There are no living creatures in the water on the beach, in order to see fat faded fish you need to sail far on a catamaran and feed them, there are no corals either, no sharks. But small and warm. Sit on the shallows and smoke bamboo. I strongly advise you to buy a fresh coconut (1 cookie - 10 UAH) to prevent thirst on the beach and drink juice, not a cocktail. Rest, though short, but excellent.

The hotel is not bad, but 5 does not pull. Territory is great, big, green. The rooms are so-so: the bath is kind of narrow, the bed linen was changed every other day, they were cleaned for show (although they didn’t leave bad tips), they didn’t wipe the dust, they washed the floor where you can see.

Although we were mostly on the beach, and on excursions, we would like to return to a clean room. Animation on the beach is excellent, we did not miss volleyball, and water aerobics, and music, there is also a bar on the beach where you can drink a cocktail (excellent cocktails). the island of Cayo Largo, I strongly advise you. Then do not take dollars, only euros. We did not regret that we went to Cuba at all, but we will not return to this hotel!
