Varadero Homestays

I stayed in multiple resorts during this visit to Varadero and this one is by far the most beautiful. The pool is gorgeous, there are lovely little bars everywhere all over the property too with delicious drinks. I upgraded to a premium suite and omg would highly recommend. Everything is touch activated and it’s basically a smart room. The beach is gorgeous with turquoise waters. The only thing I can say negative was that I didn’t love the buffet food but all of the ala carts are included each night I just never had time to sit down and enjoy one of them. I heard all the restaurants are amazing though - so aim for those. Otherwise - this property is worth every penny 💕

May 17th - 31st This was my 8th time staying here I believe and it certainly did not disappoint. The WIFI internet was decent and available all around the resort! The food was good and acceptable. Ice cream and desserts were the best. The hamburgers were a pleasant surprise with their local condiments! The late night sports bar and grill was the place to be. Air conditioned room with sports tv, pool tables, drinks, and a grill. As long as one visits Varadero to have fun, nobody will be disappointed. It's a utopia, that's all there is to it! Please upgrade and renovate the bathrooms! Tips: - Bring your own toilet paper, candy, sauces, condiments, foaming hand soap, bathtub and shower cleanser, scrub pads, soap bars, razors, shaving foam, - Take a visit to the International bank downtown Varadero to exchange CDN or US dollars into Pesos. Easier to spend with tipping and local restaurants with Pesos. Both have both currencies just in case. - Repeat guests: ask for an extension in your room past check-out time if you need. It should be free if you are a repeat guest.

Good meal, delicious. The environment is very beautiful, the place is very big, but the distance from room to restaurant is relatively long. The lobby service's laughter is not natural enough. Food is not bad.

It was my partners and myself first time down south and I am so glad we picked Cuba and this resort! They did not disappoint. We got in late into the evening and while checking in they upgraded us to the bungalows. Our room was nice and clean and house keeping kept up on everything. The food was pretty good, I am super fussy but I had meals everyday, and the ice cream was very yummy. Now let me tell you about the beach, it was something words can not describe, the white sand and clear clean water made each day so enjoyable. Last but not least the people of Cuba, this is what truely made the trip. I’ve never in my life met such grateful and happy people. There kindness does not go unnoticed and they all could teach us a lesson to be grateful for what we have and to be happy. A few people stood out to me at this resort, there was a girl who works where you get towels for the pool, Dailyn was her name, she was amazing and made you feel right at home, Jania who works at guest services who I became friends with. She is a lovely person, Roberto who worked in at the buffet who I miss terribly and wanted to take him back to Canada with me. He touched my heart, Gooseman who worked on the beach sailing the catamaran was another amazing local who you must meet, he took us snorkeling and showed us the beautiful ocean and last but not least we had a private tour of Havanna (which was cheaper then the sunwing excursion) with a man named Toni, this man took a little piece of my heart and is now friends with my partner and I. Toni showed us the real Cuba and educated us on a lot. He deserves nothing but great things in his life for him and his family. When I think of Cuba he will always come to mind because his kindess and hospitality was out of this world. There was lots of other great people we did meet, these people just stood out. The beauty they hold within them made for a wonderful trip. If you decide to visit Cuba this resort will not dissapoint and the locals you will meet will become life long friends❤️❤️

Please note this is not sanctuary, on trip.com you think you are booking sanctuary, but it is the normal grand memories. Other than that it's nice, nice staff and the food was pretty good. Would recommend just pay attention to the name, this is wrong at trip.com, you book the normal grand memories.

It was very pleasant! The team was always going above and beyond to provide us with a personalized stay. Mary , the housekeeper was amazing and always set up cute shaped towels to entertain my little nephew. Mercy , from Public Relations coordinated a welcome gift to celebrate my birthday. The entire team was amazing always smiling and happy to assist. Food varied and the chicken always delicious 😉 my fav. Thank you for making us feel as family. Despite the weather it was a pleasure staying at the facilities. Walking the beach on the afternoon is to died for. Great views from the 7th floor balcony. The Maitre and all the attendees at this Hotel which changed name now to Playa Caleta were amazing! Great customer service

This is the second time I made a reservation for my family as I cannot travel to see them and my own experience here a couple of years back was extraordinary! The service in this hotel is unheard of! They are just to kind! All of them..just angels! For those who haven’t visit, this is one to give it a try…I promise you won’t regret it…aaand cannot even start mentioning the cost effectiveness of this one! You have all type of activities available, and Great food….This is what value for money is meant for ❤️❤️❤️❤️ besitos a todos en el staff! Gente increíble!
