Beautiful Resort!

Reviewed Jun 8, 2024
My husband and I stayed there from May 26th to June 2nd. It was a trip for our 35th wedding anniversary!
This is a very beautiful resort and the staff are very friendly and hard working!! They do their best to make your stay enjoyable!!
Air Canada was offering a free upgrade to sea view and we were not disappointed!! Our room (room 5115) was very nice and clean with a beautiful view! We even watched dolphins in the ocean right from our balcony!!
The food at the buffet wasn’t the greatest but it was off season and maybe some shortages. At breakfast time we always had eggs, bacon, omelettes, etc. Lunch and dinner was not the greatest. Although there was always lots of pasta and there was pizza. The sandwiches and fries were good at the snack bar by the pool! There was not a great variety and very repetitive the whole week! There was not really any vegetables like lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers, etc even to make a salad. The little churros stand was only open for a limited time on the Friday and Saturday that we were there!
We couldn’t get any tropical drinks while we were there…no pina coladas or anything like that. We mostly drank rum and orange juice or beer! Lobby bar had the best cappuccino!
There were other parts of the resort closed for maintenance while we were there like the gym etc. but like I said it’s off season!
The only precautions I might add are if anyone has mobility issues…the walkways are not lit up at night! They were very dark even around stairs! If you were walking along and didn’t know the stairs were there you would fall because you couldn’t see them!

    This has been an incredible experience. We enjoyed a lot. This resort has a beautiful beach, my daughter loves it. And I spent an awesome romantic time with my wife.
    Rooms are fine. Everything is clean.
    About food . I could say it's ok. I really liked Restaurants a la carte. I had very nice drinks at the lobby bar . Dayana and Gabriel were such a nice bartenders both.
    I wish I could come back next October

    Just came home from a week at Grand Muthu with my family, 4 year old and 9 month old kids. We had a wonderful week here, the grounds are super nice and well kept, pool was clear every day, beach is stunning and not too rough, our room was cleaned daily, and the staff do everything with a smile when you need something.

    The resort was at lower capacity so you can see they cut back on some things (pool bar was closed), but I can’t say we experienced any shortages while there that we heard others experienced at other resorts in Cuba.

    Wish they offered more options at the bar, we only had pina coladas twice, and if you’re a Diet Coke drinker like me, they didn’t have any. But the white wine at lunch and dinner was so good, and the cappuccino at the snack and lobby bar were amazing.

    The a la cartes were our favourite, and especially enjoyed the Cuban lunch offered at El Jardine, don’t miss this one!

    Snack bar offers ham and cheese or tuna sandwiches, these were actually really yummy and even had fries on our last day.

    The grilled fish was so good at the buffet dinner, with different varieties like local catch and basa or calamari. Beef and pork was available everyday, chicken less so but was offered occasionally.

    Keep in mind it’s wet season right now, so the flies and mosquitos are a lot, they really need to try to find a way to minimize the flies at the buffet. That was annoying.

    We would absolutely return to this resort and made some great memories 🌊 🌴.
    Go with an open mind and understand they’re doing their best with what they have. The staff work so hard and deserve the praise!

    Room tip: The lunch spot serves pizza made to order, go early before they run out!

    Resort is beautiful! Pathways lined with flowering trees and bushes. There are air plant gardens, cactus. Grounds immaculent! We saw a garden area with little signs with guests names in front of some trees, bushes, asked about said repeat guests.

    Super friendly staff, always a smile, wave or conversation. Even the other guests here were great.

    Food was delicious. Buffet was clean, lots of food choices, the pizza from the Seasky restaurant was delicous! Cute "secret garden vibe" restaurant called Le Jardin, will try on next visit

    Pools, where clean lots of shade and loungers available. Husband played darts by towel exchange area. Music, various types played. The view from infinity pool is breathtaking. The beach towels are fresh smelling

    The beach, loved it. Read about seaweed, no problem, water was warm and you can walk and walk and walk!

    Room was amazing, clean, comfortable beds, Ceiling fan,quiet AC, rainhead shower, hot water, coffee maker, working safe, beautiful view. Absolutly no complaints!

    We will be returning in the fall!

    My stay at this resort was amazing!
    While considering the struggles that Cuba is going through, I had everything I needed and had no issues with food supply and definitely was never hungry. The buffet had plenty to choose from and the 24 hour snack bar always had some sort of snacks my favorite being the fries. And make sure to book the restaurants, my favorite was the Italian or the outdoor one by the beach. The staff are very friendly and accommodating and entertainment was great for all ages. Our rooms were nicely cleaned daily with enough toilet paper for our week stay and towels changed daily. The property was beautiful as well as the beach. Overall a wonderful and relaxing trip! I definitely recommend!

    Room tip: Go to the a la carte restaurants and book excursions (playa Pilar beach excursion was beautiful highly recommend!)

    Dear selmao754,

    It is a source of great happiness to know that you liked our hotel and you choosing us for a second time. It's good that it is a great place to relax, enjoy and have a great time. We really like it when visitors tell us that they found our beach beautiful and the pool great, these two spots have always been the target of excellent comments because of how pleasant it is to spend the days there. It is very comforting to know that you liked the food at the buffet, it is very good to know that you found it varied, of high quality, and always with good options. It is very comforting to know that despite having stayed in many places in Cuba, our hotel is definitely the one that stands out for you. We hope you choose us again for future vacations. Please do not hesitate to contact us in advance for any matter.
