Our first trip to Cuba, and oh what a week!! We had the best holiday ever. Great Service by the staff. especially Leo & Tito at the Pool isde Bar. then there was Ario pool security what a guy. Food was out of this world and anybody who didn't have enough choice wasn't looking to far. Breakfast try the omolets, sauge both regular and spicy. Lunches were had around the Snake Bar mostly all Club-House sandwiches they were great! So was the Cheese Burgers.
Rooms were clean and floor was clean enough you could use it as a mirror. Maid Service was great, the only thing you'll have to remember is to take the water bottle left in your room the first day down to the inside bar to be refilled.
Unique Quality: The grounds were lavish and well manicured. Easy access to the Ocean. with lots of cabana's to lay under and get your tan. Some of the sites aren't to hard on the eyes either. Gym was good and so was the jacozzi. Especially like trying the milk from the coconuts mixed of course with a little cuban rum.
The days out were one day trip to Havana, I sould suggest for any first time visitor. A must is the Katamoran. It may seem a little pricey but we left port at 8:30 a.m. and got back at 6:30 p.m. so you can see it was a full day of relaxing, snorkeling over a reef, lunch on an outer island, and then stopping to swim with the porposes on the way back.
Take a trip into Veradero, and shop in the markets. Take a horse drawn tour of the city. When you get tired stop at one of the many quant parks and have a refreshment and listen to the music.
On the way home get a 1927 Model T Convertible cab ride back to the Resort. An experience you'll never forget!!!

Our first trip to Cuba, what a dream come true. This resort is well laid out. Beautiful grounds. Gracious Staff which go out of their way to assist you. Especially out Pool Bar waiters Leo & Tito. Then there was Ario pool security, what a fun bunch. The rooms where clean and the floors sparkeled. The food and the service was #1. What an assortment for breakfast, lunch and dinner. The snack bar located next to the pool was a great gathering spot and served fast lunch time meals like clubhouse sandwiches etc. What can I say about the Ocean, it was beautiful. Had a great time looking forward to next year already!!!!
Unique Quality: Pool was always the gathering place for visitors. Visitors where well looked after by Leo and Tito (Pool side bar tenders). There was action every afternoon at the pool put on by the local staff, which included the visitors getting into the groove also.

HOTEL DESIGN
My boyfriend and I arrived at Hotel Villa Cuba on a Saturday evening (October 28th, 2006). It's hard to see how beautiful the Hotel is when you're arriving at 11:00pm at night, but, in the daylight, it REALLY IS an indoor/outoor picturesque establishment! Seriously, when you're indoors, you feel like you're outdoors. TREES AND BIRDS EVERYWHERE! Almost every area in the hotel is a "BABE! LET'S STOP AND TAKE A PICTURE" moment! My boyfriend stayed at Arenas Blancas 3 years prior, but, said, the hotel wasn't as nice as it Villa Cuba (aesthetically anyway!).

We stayed in resorts both times (Villa Cuba and Sol Sirenas) but we didn't sleep there. Within 5 minutes of talking to anyone, you are invited to their homes and offered food and a place to stay. Sure they want your money but not much of it. They make 8-12 US dollars a month so offer them 10 dollars and you have a place to stay the night. The further you get from Varadero, the more "casa particulars" there are, because technically they are illegal in the tourist areas, but that doesn't stop them.
Unique Quality: They are very small houses, if you can call them that, but it's such an experience actually spending an extended amount of time with the Cuban people.

villa coral villa cuba ist a very clean place whit a nice and bigest pool inside the hotel you have a discotheque
the name is chekere and the music was very good
you have 3 restaurant inside
the atmosphere of this place is so increduble.
The worst place to be if you want to have a relaxed holiday.
Rating: food-worst
service- bad
room - could have been better
The only good thing about the hotel were the drinks and the beach& ocean.
Entertainment- bad, they advertise that they have a kids club, which did not really existed....
Also if you don't tip everybody you don't get the services for which you have already paid...
The first time in Cuba we were in Varadero, at the Villa Cuba. It was a beautiful resort, with everything you needed nearby. This last time we stayed at the Sol Rio de Mares in Guardalavaca. It was absolutely fabulous. The service was unbeatable, the resort was beautiful, the food great, the drinks better. The people we met who worked there were great. All in all I think it was much better than Varadero, although we had a great time at both. The facilies were outstanding, clean. The pool was beautiful, with a nice swim up bar. The view was fabulous, no matter where your room was, all ocean-view. The rooms were nice and clean.
Are arrival was prompt with a informative bus ride to hotel.The hotel lobby is beautiful with a river flowing through the bottem. The check in and room selection was great teh busboy did morethan his job having me feel a little akward as this man of maybe 50 years old and 5'2 carried two large suitcases 3 stories up to our room made sure eveything in our room worked and that we were satisfied before attempting to leave we tipped generously afterwards and he was extremly grateful. Our room wasnt the fanciest room in teh world but is was clean two double beds rum in and water in the fridge a nice balcony with the best view ever is teh in between the beach and the main hotel. The restuarant was suffieciant though i think you need to approach from a cuban perspective what do they eat. I found a great selectioneating items many did not chose. Breakfeast i stuck with hard boiled egg toast fruit and cafe con leche. This resort has teh best cappicino ,esspresso, and coffee in general i drank liek 7 a day . Lunch was okay dinner was great stick to rice and fish with a vege and your good to go.The bars where good prompt service too much rum I ended up having to order all my drinks saying a little bit a rum please. The pool bar guy is great cool guy good convorsation. The lobby bar is very hot and gets all the older ruder tourist it seemed so a smile went a long way.The beach was amazing. The best ive seen it looks just like the pictures in postcards. The sand is so fine and the water so clear. The nightshows where okay just somthing to do after dinner.Well thats all for now any further questions ask away. i would suggest this hotel for anyone but dontgo if your expecting to have 5 star treatment and be spoon fed off a silver platter.
One more thing tipping is good yes its all inclusive but there providing a service a dollar will not hurt i tip a dollar for good service a drink dinner ect..... My awsome view from my room in a villa..................................................................
This second time we stayed at a hotel called Brisas Del Caribe in Varadero Cuba.
It ran us around $1600 for air and hotel (all-inclusive) It was a nice hotel, but it was still a hotel. I do not think that I will go back to this area of Cuba again, I have been there twice and enjoyed it but have done pretty much everything that I can do there!

As we were looking for a week getaway spot with hopefully a little sunshine and to celebrate our "39th" Wedding Anniversary, we picked Varadero, Cuba. We had been there three years ago and really liked the beaches there. We chose the brand new five star RIU VARADERO.
When completed, the resort will offer 1110 guestrooms.
The Beach area was smaller than the resorts either side of us, but had loungers and some parasols with bamboo thatched roofs. The staff at the beach are very helpful and bring a lounger to the spot you like on the beach.
The swimming pool area was huge, also with lots of loungers and comfortable pads. There are some sheltered areas (I counted about ten and they were snatched up by the early birds in the morning). There is a swim-up bar in the middle.
There were five bars open when we were there:
Beach Bar
Lobby Bar "Mariposa" - also a Cappuccino Bar was opened up here
Theater Bar "Azahar"
Poolside Snack Bar "Adelfa"
Swim-up Bar "Ortencia"
Our room - #21128 in Pod #21 - was on the first floor as we requested at check-in. We had a huge king-size bed, 2 comfy chairs, one small table, a desk, mini fridge, stocked with 2 cans of beer, 4 cans of soda and a bottle of water. As we were on the ground floor, we had a small patio with garden view and 2 chairs with one small table.
Other amenities included, a coffee-maker, radio/CD player, Satellite TV, Large closets with safe (no charge), iron and ironing board, bathroom with hairdryer and supplies- shampoo, bath gel, soap bars & body lotion. Towels are exchanged daily.
Internet:
The RIU does offer internet services. The charge is 5 CUC per half hour. From others, I heard the service was very slow.
Entertainment:
A few nights there was entertainment in the Theatre. The "Animation Team" consisted of about a dozen amazing young local dancers who put on shows such as "Michael Jackson Night" and "International Night".
In the Lobby Bar, there was an awesome guitar player/singer. And there was also a wonderful lady singer, accompanied by a piano player.
Our package was 7 night all-inclusive with Signature Tours. Included was flight - room - all meals - all drinks - taxes. Our all-inclusive price was $555.00 + 240.00 airport fees for a total of $795.00 CDN per person.

Hello all,
My boyfriens and I are travelling to Cuba January 6, 2004 for a week and are wondering if anyone has some honest opinions or reviews of the Hotel Villa Cuba. We have read mixed reviews and are a little scared!
They are very small houses, if you can call them that, but it's such an experience actually spending an extended amount of time with the Cuban people.
