Great hotel, I really liked everything. I have absolutely no complaints whatsoever. Cuba is a Soviet post-space, so it is clear that there are not new hotels there, they are 20 years old and more, but they are normal, they are spacious. The food is normal, specific, but normal. Everything was great in the hotel, I am such a person, I find positive moments in everything.

Everything was great in the hotel, I am such a person, I find positive moments in everything. The territory is excellent, there are gorgeous palm trees, excellent pools, pools with fish, lizards everywhere, incredible flowers grow. The location is very good. The hotel has old furniture, maybe this can be considered a minus, but everything else is fine. I recommend it to everyone, I have never seen such a sea and such a sky anywhere, no matter how much I travel.

I did not choose the hotel, the tour operator advised. The hotel is located at the very end of the resort, a chain of Spanish hotels. Positioned as 5, corresponds to its stars. We drove from Havana, arrived in Varadero at 13:00, vacant rooms were 100%, but sent for lunch. At the reception, a Cuban speaks 2-3 words in Russian.

I did not choose the hotel, the tour operator advised. The hotel is located at the very end of the resort, a chain of Spanish hotels. Positioned as 5, corresponds to its stars. We drove from Havana, arrived in Varadero at 13:00, vacant rooms were 100%, but sent for lunch. At the reception, a Cuban speaks 2-3 words in Russian. Smiling sweetly, she said that Russian tourists love rooms with ocean views and she kindly gives us one (they didn’t pay anything).
The rooms are located in separate buildings on both sides of the main alley that goes from the reception to the ocean, each house has 20 rooms, we got it on the 3rd floor. Having entered the room, I found an unpleasant, musty smell, to which the porter turned on the air conditioner and said that 10-20 minutes. and everything will pass. We examined the room, everything is fine, not to complain, but the smell does not go away, the head starts to hurt, the urge to vomit, for our happiness, the TV does not work. We go to the reception, explain the problem, unconditionally gives another number.
Here everything is decorously noble, we stay for the entire stay.
Beach. Sand, a lot of sun loungers on both sides, you don’t need to borrow in advance, they always deliver, mushroom umbrellas of shabby straw. There is a bar on the beach, everything you ask for is done, there are no hints of a tip anywhere. The ocean is gorgeous, always calm, you swim in pleasure. Animators do not let you get bored, competitions (a bottle of rum for the winner), aqua aerobics, volleyball, dancing.
Restaurant. Once we returned from an excursion in 5 minutes. before closing. No one hinted at the time, everything was in stock. There was never a crush, there were plenty of empty tables. The chefs work wonderfully, everything is always in its place, everything is always in stock. Always for lunch and dinner 2-3 types of shrimp and 3-5 types of fish, not counting meat. A wonderful cook at a Negro breakfast, will listen to any request, wish, whether it be a child or an old person, and in any language. Friendly, white smile. Great job by the waiters.
In addition to wine and water, you can order products from the bar, they will bring it. In ala carte, they didn’t even sign up, I just didn’t want to. There is a restaurant near the beach, for those who do not want to go to the main one, the assortment is poorer, there are 2-3 more restaurants and a bunch of bars
In the evening, live music begins to play near the main restaurant and animators work, and then everyone moves to the summer amphitheater. But the performances are very boring, monotonous, especially the songs of the young lady in torn tights. Then you can go to a night disco club, but I have never seen people there.
Tours. Borrowed from a hotel guide. The first one was in three cities, we crossed the island across, 400 km in one direction, we didn’t like the cities, and the time spent on the road was very. Second jeep safari. Interesting, I recommend. And the third sea safari. At first we were taken to the open ocean to the dolphinarium, the hotel guide spoke interestingly, laid softly.
In fact, so-so, the only thing is that yes, they touched the dolphins, but did not swim with them. Then no scorling and a lunch of lobsters on the island.
The hotel is excellent - I recommend it to everyone. The only thing is, there are 3 Iberostars, I can’t vouch for the other two, they weren’t there. And the most interesting thing for me was to watch how everything is stolen there (thank God not from tourists personally), but from the kitchen, bars, even maids, and then on the beach, not embarrassed by tourists, an exchange in kind begins, and the guards with a smart expression pretend that they do not notice, everyone is in share. I liked everything in Cuba! But I don't want to go back yet.

Little entertainment for children, one wooden slide near the pool. There are nannies, but it’s hard to find a common language with a 3-year-old Russian child, in general, we entertained the child ourselves. Four restaurants on site? ! We have not found. We saw only Italian, where you need to sign up in advance and where you order dishes by typing and a regular restaurant where we had breakfast, lunch and dinner, there was also an open cafe where you could have lunch.

There were not enough sun loungers on the beach, I had to go to borrow at 7.30, because there were no empty seats in 11.
Lots of ants!
The beach and the ocean are clean, a group of young people are entertained from morning to evening, people are very friendly and smiling. The rental of a catamaran and a small sailboat is really free, but the staff themselves, who are hard to refuse, ask without modesty for tips. Every year more and more Russians come, this year Russian was included in the questionnaires for the first time among all languages. It hasn't rained in two weeks. Absolutely all alcoholic drinks are free of charge.
In general, we really liked the rest. People are poor and proud, but very free and happy. I advise everyone to go to Cuba.
