Always feel at home at this resort!!!
Eric C (Saint Leonard, Canada) on Apr 30, 2024
Returning guest at resort for the sixth time, our trip was full of additional memories and full of love from the employees "Familia". Entertainment team: If you love to dance, be prepare, you will fall in love with there culture, Vranik and Yeyrel, they have hearts of gold and always make sure that you feel right at home, Get ready to have loads of laughs with them around. Don't be afraid to go and Dance with the Entertainment, Carmen's smile will lure you to go while Ibis and her innocent charmed smile will make you feel at ease, you will not be able to resist grooving to the beat. Rock and Roll day every Friday beginning in the afternoon at bigger beach with live Mr Pickle pre show. They had something new on this trip, White Party at the Lobby at 6pm, bring your whites, dance moves and ENERGY, the entertainment team will have all of those for you to enjoy. At night, the Mr Pickle band keeps on rocking. Customer service will always TRY to accommodate where they can with any REASONABLE request. Anaysis and Alberto to name a few, have always tried to accommodate where they can, they pay great attention to your happiness. Snack bar: Leslie and Yanet will make sur you will have snacks and a very big smile!!! Tired of walking, no problem!!! Miguel is not too far with the cart, make sure to be nice to him, he has one of the biggest love of life I have ever seen and aims to please!!! Daniel, Yanelis and The team at the Spa THANK YOU for everything that you do to make sure that we are all relaxed…. They are amazing at what they do. Yosnier, Amaury, Lisdian, Vitor and Daymaris will always make sure you are continuously hydrated with your choices of sweet, hard or funky drinks. They have many drinks in their repertoire, you will find your Favorite, Ron Punch, Miami Vice, Mimosa, Expresso Martini, Pina Colada to name a few.... Now what would be Varadero without Las playas!!! WOW!!! 2 amazing beaches with clear turquoise waters and white sands, as for lounge chairs, if some guest would not stack them 2 high, there would be plenty for all, don't be shy to go ask them and share the chairs, the beach boy will try to help you out along the way LOL !!! Food, you will find something to eat, don’t forget, you are allowed to bring yourself some snacks from home, just check with the Cuban law on what you can bring and amounts you can bring. A quick taxi ride, If you have a craving for a Poutine, not part of the resort but in case you are struggling, we have found a Restaurant which had on their menu DELICIOUS Poutine and Pizza!!! Calle 54 near the end of the street. Vista Azul is perfectly located in Varadero. But none the less, it was always a pleasure to go eat at the buffet and say Hola to Manuel!!! Rooms are nice, to be honest, for the amount of time in a day spent in the rooms, if their is a minor issue, don't be shy to calmly approach customer service and they will try to assist, but keep in mind that this Hotel is a popular spot and not ALWAYS able to accommodate what you wish for, but when booking, place your preferences in comments, They do see your comments. We have tried many different rooms and never disappointed, Block 6 this April, upgraded to 2nd floor Oceanview overtop of the lobby in November of 2023, Block 3 in April 2023, Bungalow suite November 2022 and block 2. All of the locations have their perks, but my personal Favorite was Ocean View over Lobby. ALTHOUGH, our last trip, we have met a GEM which ALWAYS made sure our room was something to look forward to after a full day of sun!!! Little hidden surprises and what a great smile and heart!!! Thank you Lorena We have as mentioned been here more than once, staff will remember you if you return and create a milestone in their lives, In a world where you choose to be anything you want, Choose to be kind ;-)
Cuban Experience

booked premium and thank goodness - room was great and Sina Denie our maid kept our room very clean Premium pool - lovely - just short of parasols Carols and Reyme - opened the pool bar at 8am and were great guys - thank you larger pool - too noisy snack bar at the larger pool and beach pool at front of hotel - lovely Diana and all of the Butlers were great Premium restaurants:- Coral restaurant- Katia and her team were amazing - great breakfast and evening meal and they made our wedding anniversary very special Hubby had a pizza for lunch on the last day from the Coral and said it was gorgeous and thank goodness he didnt have one on the first day - his waistline would have suffered!! Neptune restaurant - again great service and food sadly due to availability of some food items it became repetitive - no steak for last 4 days of the holiday or smoked salmon available for the whole of the holiday didnt go to the Italian or Romantico - due to menu and me being a fussy so and so! If you love lobster then the premium restaurants are the place for you - ask for full one as they only serve half unless asked Buffet restaurant - breakfast ok - lunch again ok - evening meal was not so great - thankfully only ate there once. BBq at the beach - Cuban band and a rock band once per week - they were great Beaches - lots of sunbeds - but the parasols are not positioned well - so crowded Premium Bar - all the bar staff were amazing and knew your order before you asked ! clean / tidy / quiet too Rizo bar in the lobby - ok but staff overwhelmed due to volume of customers animation team - again worked hard and the white party at the pool side was entertaining?! reception staff - always helpful grounds - well kept / clean and tidy Disability facilities - great Golf type carts available to get you around if required cannot really walk anywhere - but the tour bus stops outside the hotel to the left that takes you to Varadero - $5.00 or 5 euros for the whole day - finishes at 6pm can book a taxi or old car too Negatives - hotel is in need of some upgrading but this doesn't detract from the service they provide Food in the buffet restaurant - not the best ? our room had rugs - need to remove these as full of stains and were dirty looking Premium areas - need better signage - bar staff were constantly asking other customers to leave as area is only for premium customers - and quite often were verbally abused - Put a bigger sign up and at the front post, not set back??
