Just returned from the Melia Las Dunas.The beach is fantastic but a bit overcrowed.If you like to swim and play in the nice little waves,it is perfect. For my taste,I prefer smaller resorts.I am not a fan of line up of any kind. The food is very ordinary, the rooms also. I agree with what someone said about the littering.Seriously,there... More

This was our 1st visit to MLD and to Santa Maria. We arrived at the Santa Clara airport at just before 1am on the 3rd. The flight down went off without a hitch. The Sunwing staff were friendly and looked after all of our needs on the way down. We arrived at the hotel at approx. 3:30am. Had a very... More

Go if it is really cheap. The beach is really nice but everything else is sub par. This would be a one star in Mexico or a 3 star in the Dominican. Food was really really bad. First time to Cuba to see what all the fuss was about, now I know people go because it is cheap. Pay more... More

This was our 4th visit, so needless to say we love the hotel. We were here as a couple once and three times with groups of friends. The hotel grounds are beautiful and very well kept. Check-in was effiicient as we were checked in ahead of time. They recognized us as returning guests and had our a la carte restaurants... More

This place is so beautyful and the people are so nice. I would deffinately go again! The food was great, like all resorts its usually all the same food, but they have tons of choices and the a la carte restaurants are great. The only one my sister and I didn't quite like was the pizza one. But that's because... More

Really enjoyed the bus ride, it was like an excursion. Guide was great, got to see a lot of Cuba I had not seen before. The resort is wonderful. The food was the best I have had in Cuba. Loved the buffets, so much variety, did not get to try everything. Enjoyed early mornings at the lobby drinking their amazing... More

The staff are wonderful, the food quite good and the hotel is clean and beautiful. I would have rated it 5 stars if it wasn't for the quebecers. What a rude, ignorant, boorish bunch of people most of the quebecers were, also with a disgusting sense of entitlement. More

Firt time stay here. Was praised pretty high and rightfully so: The main buffet was very nice. Had one bad black olive, but that was it. The cooks are friendly and the service is good. For breakfast and lunch we made sure we sat in Andriens corner. His service was impeccable (better than ANY Canadian server I have had). Avoid... More
