Hotels near Complejo Parque Zoológico Ciego de Ávila in Ciego De Avila

Not much to complain about staff are friendly , you’re definitely not coming for the food . The one thing that I do have an issue with is that , during breakfast lunch dinners , you have all the employees/ grounds workers and staff (in the hundreds) that totally just pack the buffet area and you’ll be waiting in long ass lines for excessive amounts of time . I get that part of their incentive as workers is they eat for free , but as a paying customer sorry but we should be able to eat first and not have to wait 30-40 min if you want something off the grill. They should have their own hours , maybe open an hour earlier for employees because it’s madness ..

We were from 19 to 21 December of this year 2023. Once again as Repeat Clients. I have no words to express how well we feel when we are on the installation. The hotel was very comfortable and comfortable and spacious, and we had had it in September of this year. We have no complaint from the Hotel because the truth that since you arrive until you go get feel like at home; because even dinners are exquisite and we like it very much. If they ask me if we would repeat again; we would say yes, once and again. We like the installation very much. A city hotel to repeat.

Just came back 2 days ago. Let’s start by saying this section of the resort was well kept, clean and convenient to navigate. The staff were very helpful and willing to make your stay peaceful. I liked that the beach was only steps away from room with an ocean view. The food was decent, some shortages on certain days but that’s to be expected so bring snacks! Room was clean, AC worked well and nice shower pressure as well. Tv had a bunch of stations to choose from. Wifi worked well in the room and main lobby the best*. Beach was the best part, clean and well maintained with a snack/drinks bar for your convenience. Breakfast had a good set up with a nice view in the mornings. Your choice to sit inside or on the balcony. I would go every morning to eat outside and be greeted by the friendly resort cats. There were also a recent kitten litter of about 7 kittens and their mom as well. Loved it! I only really had one concern and that was 2 days prior to leaving I’d go feed the cats at breakfast but they were gone?? I couldn’t get an answer from management. Couple other guests mentioned they took them away but left the mom. That’s bs! I’m back in Canada now still uneasy on what happened… that’s bad for business and makes me not want to return. I’m saying something if no one else wants to. HENSE the 3/5 rating. I know this is common in these counties not to treat animals the greatest and they have other issues going on but it was really mean for them to get rid of the kittens and leave the mom behind. There are always other options.

We went to this resort for a visit and lunch. They were so accommodating and made us a Cuban lunch. If you are in the Cayo Guillermo area contact Edwin at this resort and you can experience this as well. Thank you Edwin and Barbara your chef did an amazing lunch we enjoyed our stay here

Consideration and good taste characterize this singular villa, located at one end of the city of Sancti-Spíritus. The harmonic succession of natural elements grants the building a pleasant decor, among its main appeals.Here, visitors will find all they need to be able to visit places of tourist importance found nearby: the house of patriot Serafín Sánchez and the Main Church. Further away is colonial Trinidad, a city rich in history and local customs that dates back to 1514, which has been declared by UNESCO a World Cultural Heritage Site.

Located 39 kilometers from the city of Camagüey, in the neighboring city of Florida. Here, visitors can opt for hunting or fishing activities at the game and fishing reserve of the Porvenir dam, which is nearby. Bird species like ducks and pigeons, quails, common snipes and guinea fowls will be a challenge for the most experienced hunters.

This was not our first trip to Cuba, but was our first trip to this resort and something lower than a 4.5 star (rated 3.5 on Air Transat). With what we paid for the trip, our expectations were met. This doesn't mean this is a resort for everyone. Firstly, I really believe anyone travelling to Cuba (especially post COVID) really need to understand what they getting into. Cuba had food issues before that are only worse now. I read a couple of the recent reviews on here and I would agree with them. - cockroachs were in our bathroom, and in the main buffet. When we reported the roaches in our room they promptly sprayed and we didn't see them again. (Oddly enough, after they sprayed the AC in the room worked better too) - only have the resort was being used, and even with that maybe 2/3 of the rooms seemed to be used - shortage on beverages. Only cola, diet-cola, orange Fanta, and some Tonic was available. Beer and liquor was plentiful. Most days had Pina colada and lemon/lime slushies. Unfortunately I could not get a Mojito anywhere while other resorts (higher star ratings) did have them. Again sad not to have a mojito but expected that not all places would have them. Rooms and resort - Definitely can see the age of the buildings and proper updates would help. However, this is Cuba and is rated on Air Transat as a 3.5 star, so this is expected for Cuba. Food - disappointed in the lack of variety for the buffet and snack bar. The buffet was very small, with the same rice and beans served everyday. Plenty of fish and chicken. The snack bar only served fish, chicken, cheese, ham and cheese sandwiches. Sometimes only one of these was available while the last couple of days they did have ”hamburgers” (essentially ground beef on toast). A la Carte - Our package included 2 a la cartes for the week. We chose Asian and Italian, while friends chose Asian and Mediterranean. Asian - 1/2 the menu was not available and the chef attempted to make sweet and sour chicken. ”A” for effort. The italian was actually quite good (really get the lasagne). Beach - Cuba is renowned for its beaches and Cayo Coco did not disappoint. There is some coral close to the beach that hosts fish and is always fun for the kids to get a glimpse. There are sometimes some small jellyfish that would wash in. I swam around them not thinking much of it but apparently they can sting (just need either vinegar or dry sand on the sting if needed). We did a 1.5 hour trip out to the coral reef close by (15 min sail one way) and loved it. The price was excellent for this as well. Staff - I would say that the staff were generally excellent and had a smile for us. One annoyance was the constant pressure to tip at every encounter. One staff member did hold out their hand once expecting a tip which was a little too much. and another time looked for a tip when we were only in our swimsuits (where to keep money?) I'd rather pay more money for a resort where tips are included up

The former mansion’s bright blue façade combines with columns, wrought-iron balconies, and blue window shutters to serve as a guest magnet.
