Overall good with few caveats - Honest Review
Oleksandr V on Nov 16, 2024
To preface my review, we have stayed in this hotel in 2018 so we can compare our experience. Also, this was our 5th trip to Cuba so we have adequate expectations in regards to Cuban resorts in general. Good things: *Amazing beach, clean, warm water, no vendors bothering you, almost always space available *Overall good service (especially if you tip well). Had no issues with any of the staff. Most of the staff is friendly and helpful. *We had no power or water outages *Italian Restaurant serves good food! *Close to Varadero downtown, easy and cheap to take taxi there. Bad things: *There is a pack of stray dogs hanging out at the beach (5-10 dogs). They seem to be friendly most of the time, but they charged at our 4 year old kid and barked twice during our vacation. Thankfully no bites or injuries but we got scared twice. I complained to the life guard who said he can't do anything and I should be complaining to the manager. I am taking off 1 star simply because of this. We had to move to a different part of the beach few times because of these stray dogs. Management, if you are reading this, PLEASE take care of these dogs, it is simply not acceptable and NOT SAFE. *Only 3 out of 5 (or 6?) restaurants are open: Chinese, Mexican, Italian. The rest are closed. *They no longer have a beach bar *Overall condition of the hotel/rooms are on decline. Some parts of the property seem to be abandoned. It's not terrible, but there is defeinitely room for improvement. AC in our first bungalow wasn't working. To be fair, we got moved to a nicer room (with working AC) without any issue and we appreciate it, but would be nice not having to move rooms. *Food and alcohol options are limited. This is totally expected for Cuba but would be nice to have more variety. *Entertainment team is not what it used to be before. Definitely less games and activities compared to our previous stay in 2018. *Night-shows are a little boring and limited seat capacity available. Guests are moving chairs on their own and blocking other people view and hotel staff doesn't care. Still few decent shows but can be improved. Another note: about 70% of guests are Russians. Never had an issue with anyone, just something I have noted. To summarize: Considering this is Cuba, Sol Palmeras is still a GOOD resort! We had a great time without any major issues. I definitely recommend coming here simply for the beach (if they get rid of dogs!!!) and overall relaxed vibe. I hope management works on the things I suggested to improve.
Beautiful and fun! Good all around.

Had a fantastic time here! Had a good pool, good food and the best beach! The weather was very good as well. The staff was very friendly and the entertainment providers did an amazing job at making it a fun and welcoming experience. Mariam was the best and always made it a good time!
