We rested at the end of March with my husband together, it was our honeymoon trip.

We were met at the airport by a representative of the JoinUp tour operator, or rather, we barely figured him out ourselves, he stood with a HavanaTour sign and shook his head negatively when we asked where to find the Join Up representative.

We went by taxi to the hotel, the taxi driver did not speak either Russian or English, so we had to explain with gestures that we want to get to the observation deck on the way to the hotel, he looked at me for a long time, then called Pina Colada. Wow, finally got it! They really make a very tasty pina colada, I advise you to visit this wonderful place.

Hotel. At the reception we were greeted very hospitably, given a good room as newlyweds, breakfast was organized in the room in the morning and invited to dinner in an Italian restaurant. The Italian restaurant really liked the medium rare steak.

The animation works very well, we played volleyball, archery, my husband played football on the beach.

The room was cleaned well, every day we left tips and soft toys that I brought from Ukraine. At the end of the rest, the maid caught us in the corridor and almost with tears in her eyes thanked us for the toys that she gave to her little niece. It was very nice.

The restaurant served delicious food, I really liked the pizza. In the morning, the girls were met at the entrance to the restaurant and offered champagne. As they said in the film, "Champagne is drunk in the morning either by aristocrats or degenerates. " Let's take the first option =))

Show programs were constantly held in the evenings, musicians sang in the hall, the feeling of a holiday did not leave, especially after the favorite cocktails Rum with cola and Mojito.
We rented a moped on the territory of the hotel, rode around Varadero, it is better to take a map from the hotel and then you can find their local park, where there is a very beautiful lake, different birds walk, and also visit the souvenir market. In the same place, at the rental of mopeds, we agreed for a pink Cadillac of 56. We rented a Cadillac for 2 hours with a driver and drove around the most beautiful places in Varadero.

Beach. Gorgeous beach, lots of sun loungers, white sand and azure water. They took a catamaran, rode along the coast, saw how the locals catch small octopuses there. The bartenders are very cheerful, they make cocktails while singing and dancing.

Tours. We visited Havana, took an individual tour for four, we also had a Russian-speaking guide and driver with us. We spent the whole day in the capital, visited only those places that we wanted. We visited the old and new parts of the city. We tried beer at a local brewery, had lunch at a rooftop restaurant.

We also took an excursion to the island of Cayo Largo. Take ham with you to feed the iguanas. Be sure to take light clothes, it is very easy to burn out, you are constantly under the open sun. I really liked the tour, I advise you not to spare money and be sure to see all this beauty with your own eyes. Just don’t forget your passports, because our friends didn’t get their passports stuck, the tour operator didn’t remind them, and they didn’t think of it when they were awake, and naturally they weren’t let on the plane at the airport. Plus, they forgot to pick them up from the hotel, they went by taxi to the airport. The money for the tour was also not returned to them.

The road back was very difficult, a small hurricane began, we got to the airport for a long time, the flight was delayed for 3 hours. We had a transfer in Amsterdam with an hour difference between flights and naturally we missed our second plane. We were given vouchers for food and a hotel room at the airport, and in the morning we flew home.
In general, I really liked the rest, only a very difficult and long road, but still only good things were remembered. I wish everyone a good rest in this wonderful hotel and country.
