Thinking of going to this resort next April.
Any comments good or bad would be appreciated.
Thanks!

I was there in February for one week. The beaches are very nice and the service is exceptional. Food is discusting and pretty much the same every day. Remember that Cuba's idea of a four star resort is completely different from Canada's standard of four stars. No marine life at all, meaning no snorkeling. Poverty is apparant...cigars always being sold on the beaches (don't buy them as most are fake. Havanah is the best place to get cigars. Excellent value). Tipping is appreciated, but bring American things, Eg. Nike hats, t-shirts with logos, candy bars, toothbrushes, pens, soaps,etc. You can barter a lot with these items. Good luck.

Tom: I think Miami can do without your business and anti-American attitude.

Robert: you have to learn to distinguish between the cuban people and Castro, you cannot judge a country by its president. A person is asking for an advice on spending a holiday time, and you are talking about politics (?). Besides, if you NEVER been to Cuba, you may not want to give some good advice on the subject.
