These staff members have made our trip a great experience: Yanelis, Edil and Yordy, from pool Adrian from the lobby, Gippsy and Mr Prince Yanquiel from sales department, and Juan Carlos. Thank you for a great week! [Details]

Quieter resort than expected, with many ‘older' guests. We were hoping for more people around our age (30 years old)

First Stay in Cayo Coco Melia - Amazing!
Hecky89, Keswick, ON
2022-08-14
First Stay in Cayo Coco and Cuba in general. It was a bday surprise and I was completely blown away from the entire experience. The staff and Cuban people definitely were the most memorable part of the trip but every detail from the entire experience was incredible. The food was delicious and there was a ton of options (I had always heard mixed reviews about food in Cuban resorts). The only caveat was I wish there were some more vegetarian options for my girlfriend but she was still happy with the food overall.
The level of attentiveness from staff is incredible. They take care of any need you have right away. We never had to wait for any of the cabanas or pool or beach chairs (I'm not sure if it's because of the season) and there wasnt any wait for really any of the other activities or experiences.
One big thing I hope that improves is the organization around the programs and activities. We received a programming schedule but it seemed like it was hit or miss. So we would show up for an event and wait, but then no staff member showed up for the event. There also wasn't much promotion around some special events so it seemed like we would only hear about those events from word of mouth from other travelers rather than staff.
At times they would also run out of certain food or drinks but they had some workarounds. They also had some issues with our bathroom and plumbing. [Details]

First Vacation to Cuba
Vicki, North York, ON
2022-08-14
I spent almost a week at Melia Cayo Coco. It was a fun experience with the excursions offered such as the catamaran/dolphin interactions, and I was able to explore the 2 neighbouring cities as well. Amenities were great, with a 24 hour lobby bar and snack bar. They also have restaurants that you can book dinner reservations for, in addition to the buffet. The view of the ocean was amazing and the water is so warm. Also they have cute friendly cats roaming around the resort! Had a great time and will definitely come back in the future :) [Details]

Dear Mr. Dong,
We want to thank you for the courtesy of sending us these beautiful comments about the wonderful stay you had at our hotel.

This observation of yours is very timely, where you recognize the quality and variety of our program of day and night activities. This is very useful for our future visitors to know, and for that we thank you too.
We apologize if the fact of having to renew the wifi account every time you consume the 5 assigned hours is an inconvenience, but we would like you to know that it is something established like that by our corporates.
You can be convinced that your special mention to Jorge and also to Rolando and Tamara from the Lobby, and to Prince Yanquiel will be transmitted to their respective departments.

Memorable Vacation
Chetan, Brampton, ON
2022-08-07
We had a great experience staying at the resort. This was our first all-inclusive vacation, and will be a memorable one.
First of all, I would like to congratulate GM Marco and the Management for having terrific staff members across all areas of the resort - restaurants, front-desks, customer service, house keeping, entertainment/dancers, etc.
I would like to specially thanks Prince and Liz who really took care of us and making sure we had the best experience. We had challenges in getting the restaurant reservations, and hence offered a free gazebo dinner. Also, our room had AC issues, and was appropriately taken care of.
We really enjoyed the entertainment shows every night, and had more fun by participating in some of the dances. They even have quick lessons to learn Cuban dance. We also enjoyed doing Archery (thanks to the Sports Club staff for teaching), playing beach volleyball, activities in the pool, etc.
Some tips for first timers - try to book your restaurant dinners as soon as you reach the resort, don't miss to visit the beautiful Pilar beach, and also take the Catamaran tour (it is an amazing experience specially if you are a decent swimmer)
I also strongly suggest to take clothes and Dollarama items for donations, in adding to giving cash tips. Also, if you like spicy food, take some hot sauce and spices with you, the cooks will add them specially for you if you ask.
Finally, I would like to thank some more names I remember - Joel, Edil, Danny, Felipe & Pom Pom. [Details]
Dear Chetan,
We want to thank you for your comments about your recent stay at our hotel. It is great to know that you had a great family vacation. We are so pleased that your first vacation in our all-inclusive has been memorable.
I thank you on my own and on behalf of the entire working group for your congratulations. We will also extend our thanks to Prince and Liz who went out of their way to make your stay more than pleasant.
We apologize for the inability for you to reserve our a la carte restaurants, but we would like you to know that we sometimes encounter inconveniences associated with the maximum capacity of clients that can attend these. Either way we are pleased that our staff has offered you a free dinner at the gazebo. We will always make an effort to please visiting posts in this regard, although we cannot with an option, we will try to find other alternatives so that you feel that you are our priority.
We also apologize for any inconvenience you had in your room, but we are relieved that our staff was able to handle the situation and resolve it in the shortest possible time, thus not affecting the quality of your stay.
It's good that you felt included in our entertainment program and that you always found something to spend your time on. We also thank you for your advice to our future visitors regarding the reservation of our a la carte restaurants; above all we appreciate your suggestion of help to our staff.
Count on the communication of your gratitude to those staff members who made your stay more than pleasant: Joel, Edil, Danny, Felipe and Pom Pom. They will feel very stimulated.
With warmest regards,
Marco Mazzucchelli,

This was our first time in Cuba and I couldn't have been more pleasantly surprised by what it had to offer. Nightly events, daily activities and of course the beach!

Chino, Edil, Joseph and Oswaldo were also some other staff that made the trip one I will never forget! [Details]

When I was there, I saw a few seniors with wheel chairs and walkers, they were treated with respect and friendly service by all staff in the resort. I need to watch out for sugar in my diet and this resort provided me with lots of choice, diet drinks, salad, vegetables, seafood etc. I am planning my next trip back to this resort already!

We had an amazing vacation at MCC . Yanquiel De Price was such an amazing support for us . He checked in on us everyday and ensured we had everything we needed. When we arrived it was my fiancé's birthday and Yanquiel arranged a special dinner with cake and champagne at the Cuban restaurant and it was so lovely . All of the staff at MCC are absolutely amazing , they always greet you with a smile and ensure you are having the best vacation . The rooms are very clean and comfortable, the housekeeping and maintenance staff work very hard to ensure everything is always perfect . The reception and servers are always friendly and they ensure you have everything you need at all times . The food and drinks were always very good we have been to Cuba many times and the quality and selection of food and drinks was always great . The entertainment staff at the beach and pool were always very friendly and made it fun with the wide range of activities every day . The resort is beautiful with many palms and flowers , it's a tropical paradise and the gardeners are always working to keep the grounds immaculate. The pool is very beautiful there are always many chairs and umbrellas / palapa's at the beach . You never need to worry about finding a chair and shade at either the beach or pool , there are always spots available . The beach is beautiful white sand and blue water , it is also amazing for walking at any time of the day and there are beautiful shells too ! The water was warm and wavy on breezy days but never rough where you couldn't swim and enjoy . The entertainment in the lobby and by the pool at night was amazing . They had Cuban bands , dance shows , piano players , rock bands ect. Every night we enjoyed the music in the lobby and then the show at 9:30 pm . We stayed in one of the over the lagoon rooms , if you can book one of these do it ! They are beautiful and the salt water lagoon was the perfect place to enjoy the sunrise and sunset on our patio that had loungers and chairs . It is very peaceful we would book this room again , 2221 . We also enjoyed a lobster dinner courtesy of staying in the lagoon rooms that Yanquiel arranged , and it was delicious . We did not use the bug spray we brought as we did not need it . The resort does spray for bugs , and you are on a tropical island soooo. We will return to MCC for our next vacation , we had superior service and it was one of the best vacations we have taken . Thank you to everyone at MCC for an amazing experience . [Details]

Dear Pamela,
We would like to express our sincere gratitude for sending us such nice comments about your stay at our hotel and for giving us a five-star rating. We feel so satisfied when a member of our staff is in charge of following up the stay of our visitors, as Yanquiel did with you, worrying that every day everything was fine with you. How pleased we read that he organized a special dinner with cake and champagne for you at the Cuban restaurant and that he was so charming with you. Your recognition to him and all of our hotel staff for being amazing with you will be communicated to all departments.
We are pleased to know that you found the rooms very clean and comfortable and totally to your liking. We are happy that you were able to settle into one of our rooms overlooking the lagoon, and enjoy the sunrise and sunset from your balcony. We are aware of the dedicated work carried out by the room maids, as well as the cleaning and maintenance staff of the entire facility, so that everything was clean and with an extremely pleasant and welcoming atmosphere, with many palm trees and flowers.
It is always a relief to see that our customers liked our food and beverage offerings, since although we strive to meet our quality and variety standards, we are aware of the inconveniences that we present with our external suppliers to have a timely supply of a whole range of products.
We also have to thank you for recognizing that any of our visitors can enjoy our entertainment program and that everyone can always find something to do and feel included. It's great that you enjoyed our Cuban bands, dance shows, pianists, rock bands, and the music in the lobby and after the show at 9:30 pm.
It is nice to see all this information that you share with our readers about our pool and its surroundings, and about our beautiful beach with white sand and blue water, and the always available chairs and umbrellas, as well as palapas.
We are pleased to know that you will return to our hotel for your next vacation. Do not hesitate to contact us in advance for any matter.

Best resort in Cuba so far
Jmay17, Windsor, ON
2022-07-20
So far this has been the best resort I have been to in Cuba the staff has been amazing and very accommodating. Yanquiel the prince will make sure your stay is amazing. Always checking in to make sure we have a great experience. The beach is beautiful and clean. The guy cleaning the beach seen my fiancé looking for sea shells and got a bag of them for her. The gardeners made cool animals out of palms for us. And the servers and bartenders have always been friendly and accommodating. They even made a birthday cake for me on my birthday! We had the lobster one night and it was amazing. The rooms are always clean and fridge stocked. Would definitely recommend this resort. Thanks Yanquiel the prince and all the staff for making our stay great. [Details]
Dear Jmay17,

My first stay in Melia Cayo Coco
Cbelasso, Pierrefonds, QC

I spent a week here in Melia. There was a great selection of food at the buffet! The staff was very kind and friendly, and always very hard working. Prince and Yoel at the reception were exceptional and extremely friendly.
Jose Emir the air Transat rep is the man to go to if you want to go on any excursions during your stay.
Fermin and Ainsley from the buffet are the friendliest and most responsive waiters, and always greet you with a smile and quick service.
In the lobby bar, look for Aranelys during the day, and look for Jovel in the evening ! Exceptional bartenders !
From the pool bar, Yanelis is a true gem. Makes all her cocktails with lots of love and a smile !
From the nautical club, look for Pavel and Osiris. They are very friendly and will take you snorkeling on the catamaran.
Last but not least, Aliderssy, the star of the tobacco store. She is a GEM of a person, who will take the time to go through the wonderful selection of cigars. [Details]

First time in Cuba and was very scared from all the previous reviews I heard. Food was good, outstanding hospitality by every single server and entertainer, hotel room was great, comfortable and most importantly clean. Might not always have young adults [Details]
Dear dianaeyyz,
Thank you very much for posting your review on this site. We are happy to now we were able to accommodate your preferences and were up to your expectations during your stay with us. Our hotel has really been characterized by receiving older crowd clients, but we believe that it is not inconvenient for younger clients; in any case we are very sorry if this affected the quality of your stay in any way. I hope this is not your last time in Cuba and hope you visit us in the near future: Meliá Cayo Coco can be your home away from home!

Melia Cayo Coco review
Wonderful
Amazing Hotel!
First Stay in Cayo Coco Melia - Amazing!
The level of attentiveness from staff is incredible. They take care of any need you have right away. We never had to wait for any of the cabanas or pool or beach chairs (I'm not sure if it's because of the season) and there wasnt any wait for really any of the other activities or experiences.
One big thing I hope that improves is the organization around the programs and activities. We received a programming schedule but it seemed like it was hit or miss. So we would show up for an event and wait, but then no staff member showed up for the event. There also wasn't much promotion around some special events so it seemed like we would only hear about those events from word of mouth from other travelers rather than staff.
At times they would also run out of certain food or drinks but they had some workarounds. They also had some issues with our bathroom and plumbing. [Details]

I just have a doubt that every 5 hours we must renew the wifi password? I want to make a special mention to Jorge and also Rolando and Tamara from the Lobby, and the Prince Yanquiel. We will come.backi [Details]
Memorable Vacation
First of all, I would like to congratulate GM Marco and the Management for having terrific staff members across all areas of the resort - restaurants, front-desks, customer service, house keeping, entertainment/dancers, etc.
I would like to specially thanks Prince and Liz who really took care of us and making sure we had the best experience. We had challenges in getting the restaurant reservations, and hence offered a free gazebo dinner. Also, our room had AC issues, and was appropriately taken care of.
We really enjoyed the entertainment shows every night, and had more fun by participating in some of the dances. They even have quick lessons to learn Cuban dance. We also enjoyed doing Archery (thanks to the Sports Club staff for teaching), playing beach volleyball, activities in the pool, etc.
Some tips for first timers - try to book your restaurant dinners as soon as you reach the resort, don't miss to visit the beautiful Pilar beach, and also take the Catamaran tour (it is an amazing experience specially if you are a decent swimmer)
I also strongly suggest to take clothes and Dollarama items for donations, in adding to giving cash tips. Also, if you like spicy food, take some hot sauce and spices with you, the cooks will add them specially for you if you ask.
Finally, I would like to thank some more names I remember - Joel, Edil, Danny, Felipe & Pom Pom. [Details]
This resort is a must visit
Pedro at the sports club made the trip well worth our time with all of the kickboxing and tennis training he provided my wife and I. Chino, Edil, Joseph and Oswaldo were also some other staff that made the trip one I will never forget! [Details]
Fantastic!
Would absolutely come back! [Details]

Great resort
Fantastic Vacation
Melia Cayo coco
Yanquiel De Price was such an amazing support for us . He checked in on us everyday and ensured we had everything we needed. When we arrived it was my fiancé's birthday and Yanquiel arranged a special dinner with cake and champagne at the Cuban restaurant and it was so lovely . All of the staff at
MCC are absolutely amazing , they always greet you with a smile and ensure you are having the best vacation . The rooms are very clean and comfortable, the housekeeping and maintenance staff work very hard to ensure everything is always perfect . The reception and servers are always friendly and they ensure you have everything you need at all times . The food and drinks were always very good we have been to Cuba many times and the quality and selection of food and drinks was always great . The entertainment staff at the beach and pool were always very friendly and made it fun with the wide range of activities every day . The resort is beautiful with many palms and flowers , it's a tropical paradise and the gardeners are always working to keep the grounds immaculate. The pool is very beautiful there are always many chairs and umbrellas / palapa's at the beach . You never need to worry about finding a chair and shade at either the beach or pool , there are always spots available . The beach is beautiful white sand and blue water , it is also amazing for walking at any time of the day and there are beautiful shells too ! The water was warm and wavy on breezy days but never rough where you couldn't swim and enjoy .
The entertainment in the lobby and by the pool at night was amazing . They had Cuban bands , dance shows , piano players , rock bands ect. Every night we enjoyed the music in the lobby and then the show at 9:30 pm . We stayed in one of the over the lagoon rooms , if you can book one of these do it ! They are beautiful and the salt water lagoon was the perfect place to enjoy the sunrise and sunset on our patio that had loungers and chairs . It is very peaceful we would book this room again , 2221 . We also enjoyed a lobster dinner courtesy of staying in the lagoon rooms that Yanquiel arranged , and it was delicious .
We did not use the bug spray we brought as we did not need it . The resort does spray for bugs , and you are on a tropical island soooo. We will return to MCC for our next vacation , we had superior service and it was one of the best vacations we have taken . Thank you to everyone at MCC for an amazing experience . [Details]
