Stayed in Playa Giron for a week. I have been to other hotels in Cuba over the years and in all aspects it is not noticeably worse or better. It is true that if you have a phobia of dogs, horses or sheep, you should stay away from this resort because there are quite a few of those animal on... more

The room was extremely ill-equipped, with no towel racks, soap dish, nor shower curtain. The bed mattress was falling apart with dead insect parts between the wood panels of headboard. The walls were stained and battered and sink was falling from the wall. No chairs in the room. Loud, horrible music all day and night. Food and pool were very... more

This hotel is what we expected for a 2 star. We were prepared so we were not dissapointed. We really liked that we were able to meet and hang out with the locals. We had all been to Cuba several times but not in this area of the country. This area allowed us to experience what we felt was the... more

Well this was our second visit, we were there same time last year,"we fish at a couple of locations fairly close by". Everything was virtually as last year, the food however was a little more elaborate with more choices and a BBQ on St. Valentines night. Menerva, the head waitress could`nt have been more helpfull and even arranged a birthday... more

All inclusive for £40 per night...our expectations were low and we weren't disappointed. Once we got over the initial shock of the basic accommodation (which was clean but extremely dated) we actually grew quite fond of the quirkiness of the place. OK the concrete sea wall is ugly but this is a great place to use as a base for... more

we were a party of 27 mainly chaps who spent three nights at playa giron at the end of a week long football tour of cuba which also raised funds for three hospitals-two in La Habana and one in Colon. if you want western luxury and to be coralled with a load of bored holiday makers from the uk and... more

Our organised birding tour was meant to end up at the Playa Larga for four nights, and as I wanted to get some snorkeling in, I asked for a two night extension.. When I heard Larga was closed for refurbishment and we had been moved along the bay to Giron I read the trip advisor reviews and was a little... more

We chose this hotel because my partner had been there several times in the past (before 2000). As it was one of the cheapest hotels available, and from reading the reviews, I was not expecting very much at all expect for fine snorkeling in the area. True the hotel leaves a lot to be desired; it badly needs all sorts... more

We had booked a fishing holiday for bonefish in the National Park and this hotel was to be our accommodation for just under 2 weeks. It was like a prison camp!! Where do I begin?? Huge concrete barrier wall off the beach, really ugly. "Restaurant" was a bare room with plastic chairs, no decoration on walls and strip lights on... more
