Positive :

have paid the price for 1035 for two weeks it was very well I certainly have to return prices have eaten 10 of 15 nights at the restaurant a la carte + casse croute open 24h.personnel very nice, hotel very clean overall not forget that this is a 3 star beach not very long walk max 1 hour round trip, the sea very clear and all this in cuba du1-12-09 15-12-09 at only 10 minutes of rain showers in the morning and 2 2 disco night ... on the site and evening with the Cuban night on the beach but you pays your drink just 2 pesos

Negative :

the Sunwing representative was not very up to date on restaurant opening times and did not really know what were the open, I think he wanted to sell more trips?? hotel rating for hot water flows to the front longtemp to go to the shower, the shows are repeated the following week, there is always someone for the chairs on the beach and they like pesos ...... its just a Tanant long as no fridge in the rooms,

Comments from L.surprenant on Club Amigo Guardalavaca :

Newspaper of Cuba, Holguin had a record cold that beat the 1996. Cold and gray day, 18 degrees C., need a windbreaker and downs ... the day! ... And 5 days. People say that in August, September and October hurricane period and c is much rain in January. 5 days of sun on 14, preferable to go there later. HOTEL BUT, there was lack of January 2: dark rum, red and white wine at the buffet, fruit juices, soft drinks at the bars, grills hamburgers and tuna. Internet every other day and any day on the phone two weeks, not even a line to call al interior of the island of Cuba. No phone in my room, therefore I am praying that nothing happens because I n m have been unable to reach anyone. I have postponed two times it was the reception and did nothing changes. AND NOISE: more than half the occupants of the hotel were young people under 25 years. They had celebrated until 5 am everywhere ... even in the corridors of rooms. But how to call the security n having no phone.

Positive :

The a la carte restaurant for dinner Benny Appreciation tourists returning al hotel. We had as usual al lobster with white wine or red.

Negative :

The lack of communication by phone and internet. The lack of provisions: rum, white and red wine, fruit juices, soft drinks, burgers, tuna.

Comments from Mblais on Club Amigo Guardalavaca :

We were in the Chameleon section of the hotel. This is a 3 * no more. The price was high but it is surely connected to leave the New Year.

Positive :

The site and the rooms are clean. Some rooms are not renovated yet. Very safe place.

Negative :

The service at the snack bar Yaguajay Rosie is very slow and the tip works. The evening shows would need more variety

Comments from Arthurcloutier on Club Amigo Guardalavaca :

We had a wonderful time. We loved the concept of this hotel. Although it is a 3 star that's fine. Section is the most beautiful section of Villa, but most bruillante buggalow very well because the stage performances is in the center of housing but it is perfect for people who enjoy the fiesta! and closer to the beach although the main building are Atlantico villas near the beach too. The buggalow are also very short distance up 7-8 minutes on foot. The ocean view room in Atlantico number 2041 is fine. We will return to this place without hesitation. The food is naturally Cuba Cuban a la carte restaurant is the best. The buffets not terrible but there is a good pizzeria on site La Playa el Restaurente and snack bar on each of the three parts of the site we troubleshoot very well. We can do an hour of Carriage for 15 pesos ask Louis speaks French and gives us much information, there are also el Senor Jose who is very friendly but speaks only English and Spanish. The site is very clean and there are plenty of vegetation is a very beautiful landscape. There is also a small craft flea market on the site near the beach and also two small shopping center containing little but it gives us something to do in Guardalavaca because it is a fairly quiet place that is not such as Varadero. There is also a nightclub on the site. A website to 6 pesos for an hour but a little slow and you can buy calling cards to call our home. You can get them in a call center which is located right next to the flea market you will find out in the main building just minutes walking to the right. Buy your liquor starting at the airport as the prices are better than in the city or the site. Try not to over exchanging money at a time because if you rest you will lose by selling at least that's the case for Canadian money right now. Do not forget to check the time you leave in the book your airline the day before your departure is very important if you happen to little glitches like us. Bon voyage!

Positive :

Excellent value for money

Negative :

The buffets

Comments from lu_nickliveca on Club Amigo Guardalavaca :

Positive :

Pleasantly surprised, first the site is simply beautiful, a beautiful well maintained vegetation. We do not travel in a 3 stars especially not in cuba, but I would go again in a heartbeat ... we were in the holiday season ... we've had better service ...??? we were 4 people and the verdict was unanimous for everyone ... and good food side I must say that I have not eaten worse than a 4 stars ... We, our room was just great with a living room and two bathrooms ... but they our friends in a tiny room but very clean ... it's really weird that there are hotel rooms and other funky downright rotten ... so why do I recommend it to chickens luxury because there are who have booked a villa and we had a little shabby room ... so you really get ready in his head that maybe the room will be disappointing ... but I repeats still own ... at least that we saw! finally if you have an open mind and a good price go book ... it's been going 15 times I go to Cuba

Negative :

some bathroom on the site was poor, not on cleanliness but when they are blocked ... they stay a few days.

Comments from J.gregoirevermette on Club Amigo Guardalavaca :

This hotel lacks a lot of organization to check in and out That we lost the entire first day because we have changed 5 times Room. No electricity, no air conditioning, no water, no door bar room not cleaned, etc.. Standard rooms avoided at all costs as they are in the style section Guardalavaca HLM. Even if you paid more to go home in the villa section, people are not in a package and when arrived, giving a bribe and upgrades in the hotel villa. Result, you pay $ 300 more for nothing because in no place for you. It completely Foute they want your money. For a change, the best rooms are full of bugs. Avoided if possible signing the agency where the representative is never there, and CanJet aircraft or are decaying and poor service. The hotel is located directly sue a public square with bars and restaurants so Cuban tjr to loud music from 6:00 am to 3:00 at night. If you want to have peace of mind that is not your place. We have had months to heat and sun .... Our experience was the same for all agency clients and even more. Generalized ..... In short go to another hotel style 4 * and worth the extra $ $.

Positive :

Great site, great buffet and a snack bar then 24, near the villages and small market, beautiful place and opportunity to go snorkeling right from the beach.

Negative :

Cubans want tjs the tip, you pay not you pick up with what's left (chairs, kayaks, service, etc.) noise day and night, throughout the site. No tourist class (must see to believe) obsolete Hotel not clean

Comments from bjbocagecsdpsqcca on Club Amigo Guardalavaca :

Positive :

Exceptional temperature. Our Sunwing representative Carlos is very dedicated. Friendly and courteous staff mostly. Clean vegetation and outdoor spaces beautiful full color. Fantastic beach but a bit short for walking, possibility of scuba gear. We went with our 8 year old daughter and the kids club is very well organized shame that we discovered this at the end of our stay. There are three buffets and three a la carte restaurants and a few bar snacks, we have tried all except the Italian restaurant and although the choice is somewhat limited we could find something different and good. At the beach there is a bar 24 hours pay which serves excellent mojitos $ 2 try this!

Negative :

Poor organization, upon arrival we were upgraded to a villa (ns had a room in the economic section, bunkers of the army) and we asked to keep an extra cost of 10 CUC per day and the response we have been IMPOSSIBLE, we had to move the next day and we heard throughout the trip, NOT POSSIBLE to have own beach towels, NOT POSSIBLE to get a reservation at Italian restaurant even when it was empty, NOT POSSIBLE to have an extra bed before 3 days of our stay, we had two beds, including one broken in two and we were 3 people but eventually the weather was by appointment and we had fun. By choosing a 3 * with the Economic Chamber we did not expect the luxury of the Chateau Frontenac then we thoroughly accommodated, it is old but clean, I think that Cuba is Cuba and I love this place so if I return to this hotel I would take the Villa section.
