This tropical gem, located 44 km from Varadero Airport and 14 km from the city center, will enchant you from the moment you arrive with its exceptional location, tranquil surroundings, and dedicated staff.

A wide range of entertainment awaits you on-site, from land-based activities such as archery, tennis, dance classes, and nearby golf, to water sports like catamaran sailing, deep-sea fishing, and scuba diving (extra charge).

Résumé des avis

Guests particularly appreciate the staff, praising their friendliness, professionalism, and excellent service. The cleanliness of the hotel, rooms, and grounds is also considered exemplary. The beach is often described as beautiful, long, clean, and well-equipped. Furthermore, the buffet food is generally considered very good, varied, and of high quality. However, it is sometimes noted that the beach can seem narrow or short in places, especially in strong winds. Additionally, the food can occasionally lack variety or be served lukewarm.

Excellent hotel, a little rustic with a special charm. Superb beach! Perfect weather! A huge thank you to Rebecca for the very warm welcome upon our arrival. The staff were friendly, courteous, and respectful. The buffet was excellent and varied; we wanted for nothing... 110% for Marilyn, our housekeeper, always available, warm, and smiling... she does a remarkable job, both in terms of cleanliness and decor in the room. Thank you to the whole team for a wonderful week!

Excellent hôtel, un peu rustique avec un cachet particulier. Superbe plage! Température parfaite!

Excellent value!
Une excellente valeur!

Third visit and still a pleasure to enjoy this clean, comfortable, and well-appointed hotel. There are numerous activities on the beach; I was taken fishing on a catamaran for a sixth of the price charged for motorized boats. The staff is professional and friendly, and the food and wine are delicious. The price is fully justified.

Troisième visites et toujours un plaisir de profiter de cet Hôtel propre, confortable et bien aménagé. Les activitées sur la plage sont nombreuses, on m'a enmener pêché en catamaran moyennant un 6e du prix demandé pour les bateaux motorisés. Le personnel est professionnel et attachant et la nouriture et le vin délicieux. Le prix demandé est pleinement justifié.
