The best part of any trip are teh amazing people you meet there and we certainly did that. That being said, there's a reason the trips here are so cheap. With the exception of the guy who makes the pastas, and Jesus one of the bartenders, the service is miserable, no one wants to help you and they don't care... more

If you are thinking about staying at this resort, look elsewhere. My boyfriend and I had a terrible time here. All week we heard from other people they had a great time at their resorts and couldn't believe what we experienced at ours. We chose this one because it was bungalo style intsead of high rise. Our room lost power... more

My boyfriend and I spent two weeks at Arenas Doradas from January 19 through February 2nd. Our trip price was a very good deal, otherwise we might have been very dissappointed. I will give a summary of our thoughts below: Rooms: We spent the first night in a main floor room in block 10.... to wake up to find in... more

We have the read the many reviews, tips and recommendations prior to our vacation in Arenas Doradas with very minimul expectations other than great beaches and warm sun. Having said that I want to emphazise the exaggeration of some of the negetive reviews posted. The beaches are beautiful with white sand, the water was perfect and the staff exceeded our... more

Hi everyone, My 18 year old daughter and I are from Saskatchewan Canada and we were transferred here on day 4 of our vacation Jan 28 - Feb 5 2010, from the Playa Caleta, which is at the far end of the strip close to the airport. The Arenas property is at the other end and it is supposed to... more

If you are looking for an average, cheaper vacation, this resort is for you. I travelled with my mother, and we started out in the Playa Caleta. However that resort was NOT working out for us so we moved to the Arenas. I am generally not a fussy person, but i do want an enjoyable experience. Like any resort it... more

We stayed at Arenas Doradas during January, and had three separate rooms. The room on the ground floor was horrible, shower faucets were broken, air conditioning control panel was smashed, TV remote did not work, termite infested sofa, water spilling out from the mini fridge, and towels had rust or some sort of stain on them. The room on 2nd... more

After reading reviews about how bad the food is in Cuba we went with very low expectations but were pleasently surprised by the quality and variety. By week two it was getting tiresome and repetitive but edible. Watch the meat at the grill. Sometimes it is not cooked all the way through. ask for the cut you want or have... more

My husband and I were just back from Hawaii for only a couple of weeks when we found a quick last minute get away to Cuba for $500 CAD, including airfare. We stayed at the Arenas Doradas, advertised as a four star, but really is a three. If that! Because we spent so little we really shouldn't complain much! I... more

From check in to check out the staff at this hotel made us feel at home. In spite of our early 0930 arrival a room was ready for all of our party to use until the rest of our rooms were ready, so we could enjoy the crystal clear carribean and the great swim up bar. The diningroom staff made... more
