Broken Hearted in Varadero ??????
Modernvintage70 (Toronto, Canada) on Nov 12, 2024
Prefacing by saying been all over Cuba for past 30 years (during covid too!) and it has been amazing each time until now. The people, the culture, the beaches, etc.. Currently at Melia Peninsula (chosen for the usual standards of Melia chain) and the resort itself is lovely and well maintained on the “outside” (clean, freshly painted) and no issues with electricity but beware, the rooms are NOT and falling apart (2.5 star at best) . The safes don’t work and the beds are broken. Good news is there is hot water with good pressure. Insofar as the staff, as always, just phenomenal, friendly and accomodating. Now to the really bad news: I know what to expect where food is concerned in Cuba and am very low maintenance since I am here for the sun and ocean and with all sincerity, and shockingly, there is very little food. I have never seen such scarcity. Talked to guests at neighbouring resorts who indicated they had no lack of food so I don’t understand what is going on at this hotel but, there is zero red meat, zero pop, zero eggs, and the only food at the 24 hour snack bar are dinner rolls with cheese and hotdogs (if you’re lucky)!!! The 1 alacarte that is functional is slightly better. So if you’re good with bread and thinly sliced pork slices daily 3x a day you will be fine. Just heartbreaking. PS: no bar or service or entertainment (aquafit, etc) on the beach if you expect that. Lastly, if you want to help out in a small way bring solar powered lights, candles, and batteries for the locals. The gardeners are the worst off so consider that.
I don't recommend it !!!

I 100 percent do not recommend this hotel. there is no point in rating the hotel, everything was just poor. the worst thing was the food and the quality of the sleeping mattress ;-(. At the end of our stay, our towels were stolen from the pool and we were asked to pay for them, $30 for two. If you want a quiet, nice vacation, do not choose this hotel.
