It was our first trip to Santa Maria, but we've been several times to different places in Cuba. We went with another couple over new year's eve. Great party and carnival for new year's. This part of Cuba is fairly new to tourism, so their standards are still to be built (food and service). I know Cuban food, so I... more

Dear friends: I have been very pleased to read your comments regarding our resort. I am sure they will be some valuable information for those travellers who wish to relax within a privileged natural scenario. Our resort, unlike those of Varadero, has been designed, basically, for that kind of tourist whose main interest is getting away from all the motion...

Never too late to post a review! This is my 3rd review about the Melia CSM. I’ve stayed there 4 times. Also been to the Barcelo CSM and the Melia Las Dunas but Melia CSM is my definite favourite place. I plan to return in December if it is reopened. The beach/ocean is breathtaking and well taken care of. The... more

We have travelled quite a bit and had some poor experiences in North Africa - Egypt and Morocco, so decided for a cheap all inc deal to go back to the Caribbean. The location of this hotel was lovely, and the staff were very helpful. We were at the end of the low season, so there were a couple of... more

I loved this place. My wife and I are going back in December with friends. The staff will bend over backwards to provide service. They are friendly and attentive. My only complaint was the weather. It wasn't as nice as I'd hoped. But, I go for the total relaxation. I worried about nothing. The food is not gourmet. I don't... more

Arrived at around 6:30 PM in Santa Clara airport with Air Transat. 1 1/2 hour bus ride to the Melia Cayo Santa Maria. Check-in was quite slow as this was a group of 40 people checking-in and 2 employees. No big deal. I'm in NO rush. We enjoyed a cool drink and settled into 'vacation' mode! The check-in staff were... more

There isn't many reviews for August, so i'll add mine to be helpful. Me and my girlfriend went from August 16-23, 2009. We are around 30 years old and have never been to an all inclusive before, so the whole experience was new to us. We also haven't traveled much, so we were pretty excited. Overall we had a great... more

My sister and I stayed at the Melia Cayo Santa Maria from Aug.2nd to the 9th and it was great!! I have been to Cuba before, specifically Varadero which was nice but I think Santa Maria is now the better choice for me! We went down to Cuba to celebrate my sister's 30th birthday and so I emailed the hotel... more
