Bahasa Indonesia. Varadero Hotels. Price are All Inclusive. Travel Dates check-in. Done Number of rooms. Room 1. Child 1 age. Child 2 age. Child 3 age. Child 4 age. Child 5 age. Child 6 age. These have separate living areas and sunken bedroom areas, almost all with true king-size beds -- not two single beds pushed together this used to be a couples-only resort. This is rare for the area and a selling point for romantic couples. There are 25 rooms with two twin beds available, and all rooms fit only two guests only the Presidential Suite can fit four.
There are adjoining rooms with a shared entryway that can be requested, but no connecting rooms. Bathrooms are a decent size, with separate tubs and showers, but no bidets. As most guests here are from Canada where bidets aren't especially common this typically isn't an issue. All rooms have balconies or terraces with views of the pool or trees, but not the ocean.
Free minibars with beer, soft drinks, and water are restocked daily. Pool towels are provided in the rooms, and butlers can draw petal-strewn paths upon request. The classic colonial style is appealing enough, if not at the level of luxury found at other advertised five-star resorts in the Caribbean.
The Diamond Club members get the same rooms as everyone else, but with special perks 50 rooms are reserved for the Diamond Club. Extras include hour room service, a 20 percent discount at the spa, 20 percent discount on laundry service, unlimited reservations at the a la carte restaurants, an exclusive beach area, a dinner on Wednesdays, free check-out at 1 p. There is also a separate dedicated butler team for Diamond Club guests. At the time of our visit, adding Wi-Fi to the rooms was in the works, and a small portion already had it.
Varadero resorts aren't known for their food it's typically quite bland. But the buffet here has one of the more extensive selections in the area, with three main stations: one for Italian, one for seafood, and one for meat. The dessert station is in the center, where guests can order crepes with their choice of filling. A fries area has both ketchup and poutine sauce to please Canadian tastebuds. Live music plays in the corner near the bar, and there is also outdoor seating with lovely views of the resort.
Though the buffet is on the second floor, there is elevator access. El Caribe, serving Caribbean fare, is the most popular a la carte restaurant -- and the most formal, with long trousers required for men. The cave itself can be rented out for private dinners of up to eight guests, with a special menu this does require an additional charge. The seafood restaurant with the free lobster is almost equally as popular.
There are also an Italian restaurant and a beachside grill. The lobby bar is open around the clock, as is a casual bistro at the end of the row of shops, so guests can grab a late-night bite expect burgers, pizza, and the like. There is an adjacent creperie, and the nearby ice cream counter where a popular always-smiling staffer is usually on duty has gelato made with ingredients imported from Canada and Italy.
The all-inclusive plan is one of the more generous available, with just about everything included in the price. Every guest is assigned one of the 37 butlers on staff, and the butler handles any request, from arranging special baths for honeymooners to a la carte reservations at the restaurants the resort tries to ensure guests can get two a la carte reservations per four-night stay.
Top-shelf liquor, including aged Scotch, can be ordered at the bar, and scuba diving lessons and even a dive are covered the first immersion is free, the second cost 70 CUC during our visit. The specialty wines at dinner are one of the only things that cost more, but there are quality bottles for reasonable prices, and the Chilean house wine is included. The beach at the Royalton is phenomenal.
It's massive -- meters long, and 80 to meters deep depending on the tide -- and there are plenty of loungers and palapas to go around. Loungers are of the blue mesh and white plastic variety, and there's a beach bar where guests can snag drinks.
Active guests can participate in volleyball competitions. Diamond Club guests have their own dedicated section with a separate beach bar and daybeds, some suspended from ropes. A guard enforces the separation. Facilities were great, beach was fantastic and food was excellent. Very happy with our choice, would def go back.
Portugal Nuno. Very good resort, with excellent beaches. Our stay at Royalton Hicacos was a great one! What impressed us the most was how well kept the grounds were and how kind the staff was.
Unlike other resorts, this one is not a single building, but an array of smaller buildings spread over a considerable area. And yet everything was ver clean and well kept. The vast majority of the staff, whether a cook, a gardener or a server, would pass by you and always say hola.
You have a butler to attend to your requests - ours, Leonardo and Marcos, were very helpful and when requested would always promptly show up or arrange a convenient time to meet us.
The rooms junior suite are pleasant, although they could have some extra amenities, namely some slippers. A nice touch, the TV had a portuguese channel and is always nice to see the news in your own language.
The swimming pools are excelent and provide some areas where you can be in the water but under a shade, which is a plus under the very hot cuban sun. Then you have the beach, with a beach bar where the drinks were not up to the standards of the remaining bars in the resort. The beach has enough chairs and shade for everyone and nature took care of everything else, like the near 30 degrees celsius sea water temperature and the fine white sand.
To keep it short and concise your best dinner option will be the buffet instead of the a la carte restaurants not that they are bad, but the buffet is better. Right next to it you will also find an icecream shop, but open only during the daytime. The not so good: it took them 30 minutes and 2 phone calls to get our baggage into the room, after we got there and before we got to the room we had already spent around 15min with the butler showing us the grounds. Also the beach and poolside bar service is understaffed, taking it way too long to order or get a drink.
Last, but not least, the checkout process was not friendly at all: we were not asked to sit down, not asked if we enjoyed it, no one asked if we needed help carrying our luggage to the storage area, and no system to identify and control the luggage there.
The rooms were comfortable, but could be a bit improved. These points should really be looked into, because they can leave you a bit disappointed after a great stay. One last note, for those who don't like lizards or cats you will see some of both in the premises but not inside the rooms or closed areas , and they won't bother you at all. United Kingdom Nimesh. Beautiful resort, friendliest resort staff I've met, they treated me so well. Little notes left in my door card entry by the butter to keep me updated on things i booked.
Montenegro brettabroad. Great Beach getaway but not Cuba! Great staff, friendly and welcoming. Beach was lovely, albeit windy. Lots of activities to keep you busy. Overall the food was terrible. Note, this resort is not representative of Cuba Argentina Peter. Stunning place with good ambiance. Very friendly ambiance, loved the beach Bar with its cosy easy atmosphere.
All over excellent food,we went for the buffet option, friendly staff, interior designs in public spaces very well done. The mayordomo lady was just too pushy and put us off, let people discover the premises at leisure by themselves.
The check in time at 16 o clock is slightly ridiculous,our room was ready much earlier but a certain rigidly there United Kingdom Graham. All the staff were friendly and provided a first class All the staff were friendly and provided a first class service. Air conditioning was a bit hit and miss at times. This was reported but nobody came to fix it.
Netherlands Arjen. Good location, very friendly staff and great beach. The food was not too good certainly not at the a la cart restaurants. No fresh fish and the lobster was horrible. France Stephanie. The location is great, direct access to the beach. BBQ on the beach everyday for lunch :- The food is good, a wide range of food, various restaurants on the site.
The room was great, quiet with a large bed, very confortable. The hotel is well located and the areas around are green with palm trees an sundbeds everywhere to relax. Australia Anonymous. Don't want to be unkind, but perhaps I misjudged what I read.
Wouldn't go back. Staff always very friendly and attentive, nice beach. A bit tacky and tired looking. Breakfast needs a makeover. The buffet hall is like a cafeteria. Dined at Caribe and it was not very good. United Kingdom Roy. The stay was spoiled by the last days mess up with our transfer. Our butler Gabriel arranged our "Taxis". We had told him the collection taxis from Havana was not great as the cars air-con was not that good and it was old and uncomfortable.
He arranged the same Taxis again. The driver on coming into Havana had assumed we were going back to the cruise port. We were not happy with the hotel for not telling the driver. To add to this he didn't speak any English and our Spanish needs to improve.
France Anonymous. Worth seeing once. The pool area and the beach. The sommelier at the Carribean restaurant is super informed and delightful. The entertainment staff were lovely and always tried to set a great mood at the hotel. The concierge s were helpful at all times.
The rooms are incredibly humid and you feel like you're sleeping in wet sheets, cleanliness is less than average and beware the bed bugs, if you like your ankles and legs stay away or you can just run down to the hotel pharmacy and get loaded on antihistamines to stop itching.
The staff although nice seemed confused at all times. They managed to check us back in and while we were checking out. Surreal to say the least.
