Comments from Julie Et Luc on Melia Las Dunas :

Positive :

Very nice site. Extraordinary range although yellow flag throughout our stay. The water is turquoise and no motor boats on the horizon (more about the Dominican Republic). Quiet beach (no vendors). The pools are beautiful. The small kiosks for the memories are very good and no pressure to buy. Cubans are very friendly. Our favorites, and Barbaro are hilarious Quebecois accent in the lobby and Yordanka who concocts a very good salad buffet in the evening. The catamaran trip to U.S. $ 80 per person, a must! We loved it! Brazilian coffees in the lobby (you will see a dead ringer for Charlie Sheen). 5-7 + musical entertainment in the lobby outside with dance are very refreshing! Try the panini on the beach. Very good. Compare Punta Cana and Santa Maria; Bouffe - Best in Punta Cana, Beach - Best in Santa Maria, General aspect of the hotel - it's equivalent, Home - clear advantage in Santa Maria .....

Negative :

My wife was poisoning ... Watch out for white sauces .... It's a long walk from the beach to the bathroom, the central focus (in front of the lobby). The path is shorter for the toilet. By cons there's music all day (for those who want to be quiet). This is the new Florida so very Quebecers. And again, Canadians tippent lot, so our little convertible pesos sometimes seems very little left when tip .... Quebec being ourselves is not a reprimand but would have loved to be a little disoriented! ... But we would return volontiés!

BEACH: beautiful in my top 5 HOTEL: Beautiful site, great musicians, great energy that gives visitors a taste of dancing in the lobby (great atmosphere) ROOM: BUFFET well: at the height of what can be expect a 4.5 stars SOMETHING ELSE: In March 2010, more than half of visitors were Quebecers

Comments from Nadine Et Patrice on Melia Las Dunas :

Positive :

A very nice hotel, friendly staff, good choice of a la carte restaurants, excellent food, very clean, the beach is beautiful swimming pool and spa with beauty, beautiful végétation.Nous return without hesitation.

Negative :

As the site is very large you have to like walk. The servers are not very fast but it does not matter, we are on vacation time no longer exists! The only two negative comments are accessible to the toilet on the beach, and you must get up early for sun beds and parasols.

Comments from karimnr on Melia Las Dunas :

Positive :

Nice hotel, clean and beautiful site. The beach is beautiful, the food is good and the staff pleasant. The rooms are pretty good but not great. This place is well above the Sol Cayo (no cockroaches in the rooms).

Negative :

None except the temperature. Cuba in February, it's a gamble.

Comments from anm700 on Melia Las Dunas :

Positive :

Very beautiful beach. The three a la carte restaurants were very well attended especially the "Isabel and Fernando." The site is beautiful with palm trees and flowers, although a bit difficult to unravel because of the small paths. The cleanliness was up although some public toilets, including those of the lobby (the men's side) had a fairly strong odor. Very good service in general. We had a problem of freshness in the room because the air conditioning was not working well after 2 appels'au customer service, repairs were made to our satisfaction. Bars and snack bars are good choices (beer, drinks, fun Guelle, hot dogs, Hamberger etc..) Good evening entertainment especially with groups / musicians.

Negative :

(S) buffet (s) is (are) redundant (s). Fortunately it is possible to cook different alliments (pasta, fish, meat, etc.) which improves the quality since it is already cooked is often overcooked, warm and / or unappetizing. Lack of chairs at the beach like many other hotels.

Comments from Ghislain on Melia Las Dunas :

Positive :

Clean, good service, extraordinary color of the sea, beautiful beach, friendly staff speak a little French. At the restaurant a la carte'' Romance'' I ate the beef of a quality unmatched in Cuba. The red wine made in Cuba'' El Marques El Habana'' is superior to all domestic wines.

Negative :

Almost nothing to make your stay that little nightmare. Very large complex. Provide a flashlight above the first evening as easy to misplace'' hang out'' your plan. The distance between the hotel and the airport is 2 hours long'' minimum''. The evening shows are not extraordinary.
