Stayed at the Solymar for 1 week Dec 22-29 with my 2 adult sons & my mother. Great resort. Stayed at a suite bungalow & a regular bungalow. In our opinion much more private than staying in the hotel rooms. The gardens around the bungalows were very well kept and enjoyable to walk to the beach or the restaurants &... more

Just returned after a week over Christmas, we read a lot of reveiws and obviously some folks will just complain for the sake of complaining. The food was well above our expectations, lots of variety, well cooked, nothing weird for breakfast, remember this is their country not yours so maybe some things are done Cuban style. We also ate at... more

I travelled to the Barcelo Solymar with two other girlfriends back in August 2007 and we had an amazing time. The resort itself is not too big and there is definitely a lot to do. The beach: Difficult to find chairs if you go mid-day, but we were more of the 'pool people'. Otherwise, the sand is amazing and super... more

Went to Barcelo Solymar from Dec. 7-14 with a girlfriend. We are both in our early 40s. This was my 11th trip to Cuba, 4th in Varadero. I had stayed at Iberostar Varadero, Arenas Doradas and Sol Palmeras before. Barcelo Solymar is second in my book, just behind Iberostar Varadero. We had asked for a bungalow but were located on... more

We travelled with our three teenage children ranging in age from 13 to 21 and all of us agreed that there was very little if anything we would have changed! We had a problem with one room and they moved us without a problem. The hotel and their property is beautiful, really beautiful. It is also very clean and very... more

My friend and I both 23 went to Cuba in June 2008 and stayed at Barcelo Solymar. We basically went there to relax and party the whole week. That was are first trip down south so we rely didn’t know what to expect. I have read most of the reviews on here and they are all one sided so I... more

This hotel has a lot to offer, the finest resort beach in Varadero, with wide long beachfront, shallow warm water, best beach bar, best beach restaurant, proximity to downtown Varadero. The best a la carte restaurant I have experienced in Cuba (the Italian). Nice rooms, pool etc. By far the best priced premium hotel in Varadero, look no further! more

As I'm reading these reviews I'm shaking my head and wondering why people love this resort so much. I'm guessing it is their first stay in the Caribbean and werent expecting anything better. Or maybe I didnt like it because I've been to the Caribbean and stayed in various resorts before, and I am comparing it to much. Anyway, this... more

My husband and I combined a 3-day stay in Havana (breathtaking) with an 11-day stay in Varadero at the Solymar. We kept an open mind because of varied reviews but were really delighted with the hotal, location & staff. The standards of hygiene are good, the pool and gardens beautifully maintained, the only complaint being that the pools are too... more

Last January my girlfriend and I stayed at the Barcelo Solymar for 1 week. We were there for a wedding and arrived 2 days before everybody else, which was perfect since we were able to have some of our own personal time before the big wedding event. Check-in: Quick and painless, although finding our room took some time since it... more
