I had reserved for 15 days and I left after one week. Old furniture of the 50's in the room relatively small. The ceiling of the bathrroom leaked, they had to change me room in the middle of the night. The other rooms bath was clogged up and they fixed that. Then one morning, no hot water, they fixed that...

This was probably a gorgeous resort 40 years ago. If you are looking for a fancy place with modern decor and new furniture and amenities, this place isn't for you. Book Varadero. However, if you are looking for a great little beach resort and want to spend several days exploring the incredible city of Havana and don't mind some chipped... More

We researched this hotel on tripadvisor.ca. It more than filled our need for a holiday trip to Havana for the following reasons: *We specifically wanted to avoid the "resort" type, cloistered experience and have closer interaction with the local culture. *We wanted to spend the bulk of our time in the city of Havana but did not want to be...

Before booking our first trip to Cuba we did some research on Trip Advisor of the Hotel with close proximity of Havana. After reading a review that Oluf of Coquitlam, BC had written we decided that the Atlantico Hotel was the place for us. He was also very helpful in answering questions that we had regarding the Hotel. Upon arrival... More

If you want 5 star stay away. This property is a very clean 3 to 3 1/2 star inside. and a very clean 3 star out side. Pool area is a little dated but enjoyed the swim every day. Great beach 10 steps from the pool. Buffet looked like all Cuba Buffets but tasted very good. Took the 9:30 shuttle... More

Our check-in at 5:30 a.m. was not pleasant. It took three tries to get a room we could tolerate. The clerk and the fellow who took us to the rooms were pleasant enough but the process of finding a room at that time of the morning was disappointing. Some of the rooms smelled very strong of old grey-water as did... More

We took a 7 day package from Sunwing and it was pretty good. Flights departed and arrived ontime and SunWing service was excellent. As we were the only ones going to the Atlantico we were picked up and delivered by taxi. As others have said, the Atlantico is the best of both worlds. Great sand and location - Havana is... More

Great deal to visit La Habana and have the tranquility of the beach. Free shuttle 2 times per day to go visit La Habana. Great beach, beautiful sand and water. Food acceptable...nothing fancy. You need to reserve and go to the grill-restaurant near the beach. Much better than the buffet. You have to give tips to barmen and waiters, they... More

However, the hotel does have some issues. Food is just tolerable and gets the job done to fill the stomach!! Service corresponds with the star rating. Rooms are... More

If you want a vacation that combines beach and city touring, this is the best place close to Havana that will fit the bill (and not break your bank account). The hotel is basic, very clean and the food is simple but good. If you expect 5* service go elsewhere. The beach part: there is direst access to a beach... More
