About Cuba Beach Bungalows:
+ Excellent location, located literally on the beach
+ Friendly staff
- The standard of the bungalows are actually quite poor, especially the ones not located just by the beach
- Cleanliness is an issue, especially in the bathroom
- Below average value for money
About Palolem:
+ A very nice beach, clean and not to busy
- A lot of noise during the night from animals, especially (stray) dogs
Overall:
Palolem and Cuba are well suited for backpacking couples looking for a place ON the beach, but I would look at other places if you value high standard
