Holguin

The hotel was clean and safe , some much needed upgrades to gardens and pool furniture were done , and the spraying to keep mosquitoes at bay was good

Non avons passer un beau voyages au Paradisus. L'hôtel est relativement tranquille, lors de notre visite j'estimerais qu'il y avais de 80@100 personnes. Les spectacles sont bien et divertissant mais ce n'est pas une place de gros party. Il y a de la musique et de l'animation à la piscine. Je ne peut élaborer plus car nous passions notre temps à la magnifique plage. Plage rocailleuse a plusieurs endroit mais quelque endroit plus facile d'accès. La plongé en apnée directement de la plage est magnifique avec beaucoup de poissons a admirer. Lors de notre visite il y avait beaucoup de Palapas et de palmier de libres pour avoir de l'ombre sur la plage. Pour la nourriture nous avons été satisfaits. Il y a quand même de la variété malgré les difficultés qui les entoure. Les employés sont très accueillant et toujours souriant. Nos chambres (suite Junior) étais très spacieux et propre. Notre femme de chambres faisait un magnifique travail. La climatisation de la chambre fonctionne très bien. Nous avons marché tout le site et admiré la splendide variété de plante et différente espèce de palmier ainsi que tout les petits lézards de différentes espèces. En soirée les crabs ( de toutes grosseur allant de petit comme une rondelle d'hockey a gros comme un ballon de football ) se promènent sur les trottoirs et nous ont surpris a plusieurs reprises lol. N'oublier pas votre répulsif à moustiques en soirée. Ceci étais notre première visite a cet endroit. Nous avons aimé cet endroit et nous y retournerions. Le seul GROS POINT négatif de ce voyages et le NON respect des fumeurs dans les endroits de non fumeur qui sont très bien indiquer et le staff ne voulant surement pas déranger les gens. Il y a en masse d'endroit pour fumer mais le "je m'enfoutisse" des gens est ridicules et frustrant. Nous étions le 4ième hotel sur la route venant de l'aéroport alors le transport a pris 1h30.

Very nice resort, clean, spacious rooms. The staff works very hard and always there to help you. Spa day:very nice area for relaxing for the day that includes: massage, private pool, sauna, shower…for $55 for the day. Gala dinner: Lobster $30 (excellent) Excursions: Sunset Catamaran-Lobster dinner and Bay Adventure (excellent adventures) Market near resort: resort offer transportation for free. Local merchants came on Friday at the resorts that were settled near the buffet area

We came in the summer and decided to return before Christmas. It was lovely to have a great weather and to still be able to enjoy the beautiful beach. We came 2 weeks after the Melissa tornado therefore there was a big lack of fruits and veggies in the hotel, but having been there in the summer we know it is not the hotel issue. We will keep coming back, the staff there feels like family and most people you would meet at the hotel (tourists) will tell you they are constantly coming back- which is a good indicator. If you travel with kids, bring snacks and you will be all set.

Hotel is nothing like pictures online. Very, very old and patchwork repairs done. Buffet open birds and flies were picking at the food. Cockroach in my room, disappeared into the cabinet which had the small refrigerator. Worst of all, my daughter got food poisoning and was violently sick one night all night long.

The Ocean. It was amazing!!! I would rate it 10 out of 10. For all seven days, we had the best weather—no waves, pure water, and magic sand. Only on the last day, there were waves, but it wasn't a big deal at all. A great benefit of the location is snorkeling. There are reefs, and you don't need to rent a boat to go into the ocean. You just need a mask, and you'll feel like you're inside an aquarium! There is also a diving center for those who are ready to take the risk—we are not among those (LOL). There is a beach bar with drinks. To be honest, the piña colada wasn't as good as the one in the Dominican Republic, but it wasn't bad either. You can also use kayaks, paddleboards, and catamarans for free. However, we weren't lucky with this service because the safety boat wasn't working to monitor the area, so none of the resorts could provide this service at that time. To be honest, we weren't very disappointed—it wasn't a big deal at all.

Cuba is undergoing an economic downturn and it's having a trickling effect everywhere...from chatting with the manager it's been about 3 months that hotel don lino has experiencing all kinds of problems too...first the cons:..bad roads towards the resort,rocky beach,poor selection of bar drinks,ants and cockroaches in some rooms,power blackouts( they've installed a generator),no internet, basic choice of meals,.no bank nor ATM ...safe lacked batteries to set code ..hardly any night entertainment except some partying at the 24 hour bar,my room had lizards..pros: staff working hard to maintain services ,calesh riders outside take clients to playa Blanca who're happy to be paid in Canadian cash..(it's accepted everywhere)..

The reception staff seemed very stressed. Needed more lights on the grounds. The food was very repetitive. The 3 restaurants were only for the repeat guests, which I think was not fair, then why mention it on the website. The food was always cold in spite of been in hot pots was not covered and flies were sitting on it.

This was the most accommodating hotel/ resort. We had issues with our first room and spoke with hotel staff who then upgraded our room for free and switched our room without any hassle. Hotel staff was friendly and helped guide us to figuring out excursions. I have nothing bad to say about this resort. The food was good as well, lots to choose from at their buffet. I was told you get what you pay for, so I didn't have high expectations. But this resort really exceeded our expectations and we would not hesitate to return again. Wifi was slow (it did work) but you are on vacation after all. Beaches were within walking distance and very clean. They had nightly entertainment for everyone of all ages. It was overall an amazing experience.
