The best vacation

David M (Canada) on Nov 05, 2024

Sanctuary is a perfect place to relax and enjoy your vacation. I was with the butler David, he helps me a lot to make my vacation happy along with the group of workers. The spectacular comfort and very good cocktails. Have a very nice beach. I hope to return soon

HEAVEN...... My Home Away from Home.....

Tristan C (Toronto, Canada) on Nov 04, 2024

This was my 4th visit to The Sanctuary At Grand Memories Varadero and my 9th time to Cuba. I arrived October 17th and stayed till October 27th When I arrived at the airport I wish I prearranged a private taxi from the airport to the hotel as the hotel is located near the very end of the strip and there was multiple stops along the way to get to the resort. it takes over an hour to go from the airport to the resort. When we arrived we got dropped off at the Grand Memories side and a met up with the welcome party where I asked them to contact the Sanctuary to pick us up and take us over. Once we got picked up and arrived at the reception at the Sanctuary side Jenny was there to greet us. They greeted us with a very warm welcoming cocktail drink and after getting fully checked in Jenny took us directly to our room. Unfortunately for Cuba the day after we arrived there was a nationwide blackout across the whole country which lasted 3 1/2 days. There was minimal power on the grand memories side just the lobby, buffet and some of the a la carts. There was no power whatsoever at the Sanctuary. This did not affect me what so ever. The dedicated staff Thalia & Jenny went way out of their way to ensure we were well taken care of. Unfortunately we had to move to a different resort because the Sanctuary was running out of water. but that was very short lived only leaving the Sanctuary for 2 nights and then returning back when everything was restored back to normal. The staff at the Sanctuary are beyond amazing. They truly work very hard and try their best to make your vacation a very memorable one. The food at the Sanctuary is pretty damn good for being in Cuba. I eat better there than I do at home. I highly recommend sticking to eating at the Sanctuary restaurant as Lunch and Dinner are a la cart. Breakfast is generally fresh fruit, deli meats ,cereal etc. with eggs and bacon way better than the Grand Memories buffet. There is a lot of shortages in Cuba even more now then ever but it never affected me what so ever. I have to give them credit for the presentation on the food it is amazing and very creative. I have many shoutouts to special staff who made my vacation a very memorable one. THALIA - The main reason why I keep on coming back to the Sanctuary. She is truly an amazing woman. I have met many cuban workers over the years and they are amazing and very welcoming but Thalia raises that bar even higher. I have never met anyone like her before in any of my travels. She is truly a real rare gem and the Sanctuary is very lucky to have her. JENNY - Thalias sidekick/partner when she is off. Very knowledgable if you have Jenny & Thalia as your butlers you are well taken care of NIURYS - Grand Memories 24 hour snack bar overnight. Another amazing woman Always takes good care of me when I am there. During the night when is quiet we would sit and talk for hours. LUIS ANDRES - Bell boy/cart driver Amazing funny guy. Had many good conversations with him. Recognized me the moment he saw me from when I was last there in July 2023. NOEL - My birthday buddy. We share the same birthdate. OCTOBER 24... Always enjoyed his presence. Last year we couldn't celebrate our birthdays together but this year we made up for it. Thank you Sanctuary At Grand Memories for another amazing trip. It will take more then a nationwide power outage to stop me from coming back to the Sanctuary at Grand Memories Varadero This place is truly my home away from home.
