Although I've been to Cuba 7 times, this was the first trip where I stayed at an Iberostar hotel. All the other times was at the Melia chain. I find the staff in busier places like Varadero hit or miss since they're dealing with more tourists. However for the most part if you're nice to them they'll be nice in... More

We just came back from Playa Alameda and it was great!! Everything met our expectations and the food that everyone complains about was actually really good, but you have to bring ketchup because their ketchup is different. Eduardo the omelet chef was amazingly friendly and overall a great person, he pretty much knew everyone that stayed on the resort even... More

My husband and I recently returned from a one-week stay at Playa Alameda and had a fabulous time! This was only our second trip to Cuba, and while we've been to various locations in Mexico, Jamaica and Dominican numerous times, we've found that the people in Cuba are by far the friendliest and most helpful we've ever encountered. We stayed... More

DO NOT LET THE GUY AT THE CONCIERGE IN THE LOBBY BOOK YOU A CAR TRIP TO HANAVA. His name is Jannier (not sure of the spelling - it's pronounced "Junior"). He had booked my friends and I a car ride to Havana. I had just given him about $50 worth of allergy pills as he looked in massive pain... More

This was my first time to Cuba. And yes, the food was what i expected according to reviews. I did manage to always eat at the buffets, but not my my partner. She was more picky and stuck to a good breakfast and mostly pasta. The pool and the beach was excellent. We found the service friendly and plenty of... More

We were eight travelers who were switched from the Blau at the last minute so perhaps we started out with a jaundiced view. (will come back to GI issues later). As this was our fifth trip to Varadero and we had seen this property before from the Trypp where we had stayed twice before we all agreed to give the... More
