1/1 found this review helpful

I was truly needing a vacation and got what I needed. The price was right for an all inclusive vacation. $425.00 THAT IS TAXES INCLUDED. I ususally use another airline but Sun Wing had totally blown them out of the water. The room on the plane was bigger and the the meal was hot and tasted great. Much better than... more

We were not certain when we decided at the very last minute to travel to Cuba. We had heard horror stories. Nevertheless, we jump on board and we were definitely not sorry. What a beatiful country. The people are just so hospitable and friendly. It was for a one week holiday and promised ourselves that we would go back to... more

Hotel Islazul Pernik

4/4 found this review helpful

Flying into and from Holguin, we spent our last night at the Hotel Pernik, hoping for a good nights sleep before a 30 hour return journey to Scotland. This was not to be! The hotel's disco, apparently much in demand with the good citizens of Holguin, went on until 2pm after which those staying retired to their rooms with giant... more

I had an enforced 5 night stay at this hotel. I was staying at the Paradisus Rio de Oro hotel but my wife required hospitalisation in Holguin and this hotel is conveniently located quite near to the hospital. I really only needed a bed and somewhere to park our suitcases, so on that level I got exactly what I required.... more

If you go to the Guardalavaca area for you vacation in Cuba, I recommend that you swim with the dolphins! I've been to this area 3 times and have never done this before. Well I did this time and had one of the best times of my life! It costs 99 peso to go to the dolphin and sealion show... more

Villa Islazul El Bosque

Stafford, Great Britain

3/3 found this review helpful

The Villa el Bosque started life as the Holguin Country Club, before the Revolution of 1959. It was then transformed into a motel; the parking spaces for the huge US cars at that time can still be seen next to the villas. The hotel affects a tropical appearance, with leave roofs and palm trees in the foyer, although there are... more

My husband and I travelled to Guardalavaca in Cuba from January 24th to February 3rd 2007. It was our first time in Cuba but definately will not be our last. It was certainly very different to anywhere we have ever been and although we have travelled extensively we had never been in a communist country before and everything was different.... more

I know it's been a long time since my now fiance and I visited the Aquarium but Trip Advisor helped me so much I thought I would contribute as well. We visited the Aquarium when staying at Las Brisas in 2000. We took the boat over from the hotel with drinks and snorkelling included (which was great) and then we... more

This was my second stay in a Casa Particular in Holguin, This was my first vist here and an ideal choice for my needs. For a flat rate of 20 convertable pesos a night, you have independant access to your room through the private house (2 people). It is run by a family who are very friendly and will do... more

I am not experienced when it comes to choosing Guest Houses in Cuba. But I was lucky enough to have someone in Holguin to book this one for me. You can book straight with them or drop in, but it is advised to contact them first to ensure a room is free :-P 'Aricochea' is not far from Holguin Town... more
