Comments from Claudia on Club Amigo Guardalavaca :

Positive :

Great beach, lots of activities for young people (adolescents and young adults), Cuban bar on the beach (you must pay the drink, but it's worth to go there on Tuesdays and Saturdays), the hut (24 hours bar where everyone ends up in the late evening and whose server is great), several swimming pools. Basically, if you want action, that the food you do not care, you go with teens and you endure our Quebecers to Elvis Graton, the club is ok amigo. However, if going to Holguin or couple with young children, broke it is much more suitable. The food is good (we slipped for dinner), rooms are incomparable superior club amigo but it's very quiet. The best of both worlds; sleep and eat at Brisa and go to the beach at Cluc amigo, you slide the bar of the hut (24 hours) and go salsa dancing on the beach (Cuban bar open to all).

Negative :

THE ROACH in the rooms. At least three rooms, including mine, we were visited by these critters. Although we have not talked to the Sunwing representative, no change. In short, some people have made friends for a different room and on our side, we slept with a light (hope that cockroaches have really afraid of the light!). BUFFETS are really ordinary. This is not the first time in a travel club amigo hotel (3 * at Caracol, Santa Lucia), but this one is the worst. Try your luck by going to eat next Brisa., Sometimes it works and it's worth. Quebecers, as this tour is offered at an affordable price, we find many of our compatriots of the lowest ... That cry, it sacrent, it chailent against the general organization of Cuban, it pissing in the pool (the water in the bar, watch out, guys drink drunk and they never leave urinate, cheesy) , that fall asleep drunk on the beach, in short, it's not chic! To give you an idea, during our trip, each time there's two daughters Riviere du Loup (they said sister, but I doubt it because they are embraced with the language, then beat them after the show buttocks in the bar 24 hours) so no class, that one of them urinated in the moving bus bringing us to the airport ... We finished the trip bus feet in his urine! Other Quebecers have also shown their good manners by embarking on the stage during an evening of music, or thinking sexy, big ladies are déhanchaient on stage and guys trying to play over the Cubans on their musical instruments. Again, not really smart. PROSTITUTION, although different from what we see in our urban centers, prostitution is very present, especially on the beach for $ 20 or you have a young 19 year old Cuban (oddly, they all have 19 years in Cuba !). However, they did not harass the guys, they remain discrete especially as they are monitored by security and police. Still, it's sad to see a girl with an old grandpa!

Comments from Paris Guylaine on Club Amigo Guardalavaca :

Positive :

A stay of two weeks of December 23 2008 to 6 Jan 2009 at Club Amigo Holguin (Guardalavaca) in Section Chameleon (bungalows). Arrived on time at noon. Wow are pleased to feel the heat on our body off the plane. We leave the airport around 1am. At 2hrs we were in receipt of the Amigo, we were fifteen and everything happens quickly. We do not have the room she requested can not be ready, with the key problem (okay we desired room 3 days later). We hasten to visit (the second time this hotel was) able to see what Ike left as damage. Looks like Ike is not spent on the site can that nothing has changed (except that the buildings were repainted, beautiful). The playa is as beautiful as ever, but the Ike has done enormous damage to the trees he has destroyed at least 70%, against those whom it is their first trip no one will not surrender cons. The sea of ??beauty, our first week a little more seaweed paper, because it windy, with nothing to disturb against swimmers, but not wow the second week of algae and less wind. The sand still very soft for the feet. Apnea for my boyfriend has done and is still beautiful. The two rooms we had were perfect no smell of damp and no unwanted boyfriends. The rooms were just like last year except they were repainted. Nine airs conditioned with remote control and not noisy at all. Nine super comfortable mattresses, deus double beds. No fridge, furniture is the same (outdated) but not serious we are able to store our clothes in the drawers. This year we have had no problems with hot water during showers. The two rooms we had were super clean. Regarding food, I found that they have improved compared to my first visit to Christmas 2007. I am a very difficult and dismissive and hyper I ate in hunger without losing a pound during my two weeks. There are 3 buffets, 4 restaurants a la carte, three snack bar and a snack bar 24 hours. You also have a pizza restaurant that is not included, but for two, you'll get away with a bill down 10 pesos. Party on the beach every evening to drink not included, but that's about 1 pesos for a beer, there is also a nightclub on the site that opens after the shows included beverage. The shows are good and if you are you're going to party a lot of fun. You also have a 5 minute walk a disco "La Roca" came with a price and you will dance with Cuban. You have shops nearby and the site next to the Atlantico section you will find a market for artisans Super good price. Since this was my second time at this place, I was afraid of regret but not at all. If I could I would go back tomorrow. I recommend this hotel in the section where Cameleon Villas. I hope my summary reassured formers (e) who will soon. I recommend this hotel it is a good value, but during peak season.

Negative :

Just two points negative: Problem to share our beach towels and shower, even after 3 days of use. Problem for bookings at the card with Nolitours, I had the right to three reservations per week and I've had 3 of my two weeks. But it did not spoil my holiday so far. Oh yes! What I're not loved this year, there were many Québéquois and Cubans who did not picked up.

Comments from Christine on Club Amigo Guardalavaca :

Positive :

François guide Nolitours is very devoted and friendly people we were at Chameleon, very clean room. The sea is beautiful, the snorkeling can be done directly from the beach, to swim or paddle boat and fins and masks are gratuits.Nous had access to several buffets and grills, it is even if it looks the same much (by the way, lunch, grilled fish of the standard was very good). We are very pleased with our trip, we did not wait and we were pleasantly surprised considering the price we paid.

Negative :

Why not just serve wine Cuba, it is far superior to the Spanish wine? Regarding the food, Cuba is Cuba, more stars to your hotel, more variety in the food, it's a monetary choice. When you pay $ 1300 for two weeks, we are not asking for miracles. There was always fruit and raw vegetables is when it is cooked it turns bad, but hey, we always end up live with. Before paying $ 100 to go for snorkeling on a catamaran , will make it to the hotel, it's almost the same thing and it does not cost anything. For chairs should present itself quite early to the beach and if you like walking for hours on the beach is not the place, (it is small). Also, we often hand in pocket (gratuities).

Comments from propina on Club Amigo Guardalavaca :

Positive :

Beautiful clean beach, pleasant staff, clean bungalows, several buffets and a la carte restaurants (benny mium mium) pool also very pleasant. Cubans on the public beach are not really tiring. We rented a scooter to go and give things to families who have appreciated our gesture. Small children Cubans eyes as big as $ 2 when you give of their toys. Good weather and good wind enjoyable. Must love even when walking, because it is big enough as a site. As said notes representing Chameleon: a quite complex complex. Summers have seen dolphins and we can really flattered very long time, I even put my hand in her mouth for her tongue flattered. There was also a show of sea lions and dolphins included in the tour ($ 99) plus the photo ($ 10).

Negative :

Food pretty ordinary. Had to change rooms because they did not have the key to the trunk of safety. Upon check out, they asked us to pay .50 cents for a supposed phone call that we have never done. Obstinacy or not, you gotta pay. Many, many Quebecers during our stay during the break week (February 20 to 27, 09).

Positive :

19 to 26 February 2009. To have done elsewhere in Cuba, overall, it was perfect (rebuilt since Ike). For 1 peso / day you can rent a fridge. The beaches are clean and cleaned daily. We were in section Bungalows Chameleon (redone, with new air conditioning and not noisy) and had shows every night and even a show-Rock-Metal Disco for the last night ... Pizza, spaghetti, hot dogs, the hambergers all dressed ... and fries! will not disappoint you. The capucinos are especially delicious in the lobby bar. Cubans are always smiling and not annoying. If you do the carriage ride, you brought things to them, they value ...

Negative :

For sure for buffets, it's the same thing but on arriving early, you lack nothing (no one can starve during the stay. Cuba is Cuba) Maybe a little large for disabled but we lose our calories too easily ...

Comments from lorena on Club Amigo Guardalavaca :

Positive :

What a beautiful large site, four swimming pools, three buffets in the morning. For every lunchtime and evening ... 5 eateries bar at each pool and three buffets at different places with different dishes ((Grill Bar) fries, hot dogs, Hamber, fish, spaghetti buffets and varied enough to Cuba) for me with all the choice of the 4 + resto Eating a la carte ... wow ... I was quite surprised. In three resto-bar and even at 24 hours the cappuchinos are served. The staff are all super super Grill Bar, he laughs and does not let anyone in front of you. The public beach is fun for those who like to mingle with the Cuban people (I did not have at all achalant find but very nice unlike other reviews). And what's nice is the flea market next door, the kiosks are changing almost daily. We've been there 10 minutes every day taking our morning walk on the beach. The evening is a bit busy, Cuban, Cuban, tourists, music, beer cans at 1.00 ..... etc.

Negative :

That's why the 3 * ... the rooms are clean but very old no hair dryer, no refrigerator, no joystick and TV but we are not on holiday to stay in our bed ... hihihi
