Paradisus varadero resort & spa 5. A chic hotel, the atmosphere is super, the beach is huge, there are enough sun loungers for everyone, the service is what it is, but it is present! Unlike the Iberostar bella Vista, there is toilet paper in all toilets, they do not mix what they have not eaten into salads for lunch, and towels are changed every day. The pools are being cleaned, the beach is being cleaned somehow. The territory is large, old, but very well maintained. The staff is friendly, I was surprised that they always go to a meeting and solve everything promptly. No jellyfish were seen. Mojitos and pinacolada are not always available, but this is Cuba, but there is champagne and beer. There are few Russians, but our tour agencies do not offer this hotel. It takes about 40 minutes from the airport. There is a shop on site with pads, shampoos, rum and cigars. By Cuban standards, this hotel is gorgeous. There is milk, napkins, sugar and salt are not put on the table, they are served on request, seafood is prepared every other day, there are always eggs, milk with cereals, and yogurt for breakfast. Delicious cheeses. The pasta saves the child, we take the cheese separately from the tray and ask the woman at the stove to cook macaroni and cheese without tomatoes. The fruits are delicious: papaya, guava, pineapple, watermelon. Vegetables: tomatoes, cucumbers, eggplant, cabbage. There is gel and shampoo in the room (Melia is written on the jars), iron and ironing board. For an additional fee of $ 33 per day for three people, we changed the room from a regular one to a room on the ocean (overlooking the ocean), these are buildings 26, 27, 29, 31. On the beach they entertain with aerobics, sailboats, there is a spa and gym with exercise equipment, a kids' club, but we were not there we didn't get out of the water) We've been to Cuba 3 times, I really like this hotel. Those who write that there are no eggs and they feed pumpkin-there is always an egg, and it is not a pumpkin, but a papaya. And that lady who was outraged that the ticket was 900 thousand for 10 days, are you even aware that 600 of them were your tickets??? A room in this hotel costs approximately 7,500 ₽ per person! Of course, there are disadvantages, do not forget that this is Cuba. For example, there are no doors in the toilet, but we found a way out-we covered the doorway with towels.

Perhaps I'll start by saying that if you plan to go to this hotel, keep in mind that this is more for show than for a pleasant stay. The service here is at the level of 4 out of 10. The very first thing that struck me was the lack of a toilet brush and the lack of such basic things as toothpaste and a brush. A mini-bar is a completely different story: it is either actively filled or completely forgotten. The replacement of bed linen and towels is only at your request, which, it would seem, should not be expected from such an institution. As for the infrastructure, the spa and gym are open at the request of the staff, and the administration does not seem to be in a hurry to do something about it. The plumbing in the rooms is in terrible condition: the water is hard, so the feeling of skin tightening is not a myth. The excursions leave much to be desired — 6 out of 10. The cities look like ghettos, everyone is trying to deceive you, and there was even an incident with an attempt to break the chain of a girl. It's good that I was there, otherwise the situation could have ended worse. The food here is a complete disappointment, 5 out of 10. The choice is very scarce and repetitive, especially in a country where seafood should be plentiful. I found two types of fish and almost inedible dishes. You can forget about potatoes and corn, and besides pineapples and bananas, you can't dream of fresh fruits and vegetables. The beach, fortunately, pleases with the view of the sea, for this they pull 7 out of 10, but the beach itself leaves much to be desired — it is poorly cleaned, the deck chairs are in very poor condition. The hotel staff is a separate issue. 7 out of 10, but only for the fact that they are still able to explain themselves in different languages. However, few of them can really help, they constantly shift responsibility. The first three days I lived without hot water and with the smell of mold — a terrible impression. Zero-level entertainment. Everything is only in Spanish, although don't count on English at all. Catamarans and a sail are great, of course, but they are practically not used because of the constant wind. On the positive side, I found jet skis that are located a minute's walk from the hotel, although no one talks about them in the hotel itself. There was also an interesting trip to the cave with stalactites. So, to sum up: don't set foot in Cuba.

Great beach, good pools, rooms are not bad but shabby, but the area is very good. The food is monotonous, there is a problem with food, as in the whole of Cuba. Meat is pork, duck, sometimes chicken legs. It's all about meat!They cook medium-sized, as if there are no vegetables - cucumbers, carrots, beets. The coffee is great, the cappuccino is so-so. Alcohol almost the entire line of Havana club rum, whiskey, tequila, wine are all on the level. Room cleaning, apparently according to the mood, is good, then not at all, there is no system.
