Again I am late with a review, but I can’t help but write....We dreamed of seeing the country of our childhood, how to say, to return to the past - this is about Cuba. The nature is wonderful, but the buildings... shabby and scary. People drink rum and smoke cigars and seem to be happy with everything, even if they are poor. Everywhere you can see couples of different ages kissing and hugging for hours) Prices are stable everywhere, you don’t have to look for cheaper or more expensive rum, cigars and souvenirs, and this is a plus.
I really liked the hotel, clean, neat and spacious) The staff just does their job, without unnecessary emotions, smiles and any unnecessary gestures, either they are tired, or we (the tourists are already so tired of them that they have no strength) I got the impression.
The bar has very tasty coffee, also a cocktail "Pinacolada" and "Mojito" my son and I drank non-alcoholic, and my husband appreciated the beer, it seems not diluted) I really liked the grill bar on the seashore, and everything is fresh and the view is mesmerizing) Near the hotel there is shopping center, you can buy everything you need and souvenirs and rum, the prices are the same everywhere. And they also have very tasty coffee, we took $ 8 0.5kg packs) Ask for a receipt for rum and cigars, they may be required at customs.

Now let's go to the beach. . . and this is the most important thing that can be included in the minuses. The sea is gentle, the sand is pleasant... BUT! the local population arrives with children and sacks, lie down right under the sun loungers, litter, scream, turn on the music on the tape recorders they brought with them, each his own... it's just a madhouse (
And in the sea... they don’t swim, they stand up to their necks in water in groups, they drink and smoke, and they throw cans of drinks directly into the water... we were shocked by this! (((
An excursion to Havana was taken from their guide Gladita, a very attentive woman. Thanks her. We took a retro car and, oh, horror... this old vessel dragged to the capital for a very long time, it was very hot and stuffy in Havana, although there are very beautiful places, we must see! ) We didn’t get to the cigar factory, they explained to us that it is not always may work, so find out in advance. The tour turned out to be very, very tiring...
We also took a "Jeep Safari" - we liked it very much. ) We drove jeeps through the villages, sailed in motor boats along the Kanimar River, swam in the sea, rode horses, and climbed into caves. ! ) We were delighted with the impressions)
No matter what, we still remember our vacation, with its pluses and minuses, the country, nevertheless, is interesting in its own way! )
I wish you a successful journey and a lot of impressions! )
