Barcelo Arenas Blancas

Where to start. The very beautiful beach, the pool very big and clean. The animation is very good compared to some 4.5 and the staff is very courteous. I have not had a problem with the personal has no place. I love the 3 a la carte restaurant. My favorite was the Italian. The gardeners are nice and they made beautiful memories for my children. After having read the book and comments from some people, I wondered if we would have a place convenavle for two adults and two children. After have to stay, I must say that the whole is very good. People who complain, are after me, the person who palignent even here, then worse when they travel. We travel to learn about people and other cultures. So if you want a steak to go in North America and stay there. PS If you are lucky enough to live the Cuban National Fete on May 1, made on it's worth.

Nothing negative because we had good weather for 7 days and meet people from everywhere who love it too (Holland, Norway, Ontario, Newfoundland and Quebec)

Very nice site full of mature vegetation, pool superbelle, paradise beach, very good Italian restaurant, International restaurant, too, we have not tried the Cuban restaurant but the buffet had many choices and the food was good and a welcome, the unlimited champagne in the lobby, great room with bathroom, shower, hairdryer, everything worked, no bugs, nice staff, restaurant and beach bar good service, nice and beautiful gardening shows, music, dancing and great dancer .

No.

Good and close to the center of Varadero, close to restaurants, possible to walk safely, easy beach access. Several palapas available at the beach and enough chairs, swimming pool well equipped entertainment in the afternoon, mature landscaping and a nice variety, lots of trees. Good service in the a la carte restaurant, personal welcome and a smile. We had a lovely holiday and our stay was pleasant. We recommend this hotel for people who do not look fancy but rather the sun and rest, the food is good and varied. This is not haute cuisine but it is possible to eat well

The rooms have a good cooling needs, but clean and functional, the snack bar at the pool not very clean and the staff is not smiling.

Very nice hotel! Loved ... The huge pool always clean and very deep with many practical for small family. Facilitators always very friendly, the rooms are clean but old, functional air conditioning .... anyway we were there to sleep! Our towels were changed daily. No bugs or ants. the hotel has entered the city 5-minute walk and we are in the heart of the action. The evening show for kids and adults very impressive. Several play areas for toddlers. Staff very attentive to the buffet.

The buffet is terrible! Full fly, simmered dish with questionable color, not cooked bacon, moldy cheese, bread and stiff if you arrive too late there is more choice. Cocktails from the poolside bar are not so good. The lack of snack 24 hours all night. I deplore the solicitation by staff. They want it all! Your glasses, your clothes and want to sell you cigars etc ... The activities of the pool lacked dynamism.

Temperature splendid sunny for 7 consecutive days. The beach is clean and you can walk for miles and miles on the beautiful white sand. Palm trees are giants with many beautiful flowers. The buffet is good, the a la carte restaurants very good. In addition, we had a day on Wednesday with a Cuban michoui and all Cuban dishes (excellent). You can exit by walking 5 minutes. We must go around the peninsula by bus 2 floors, it's great fun. There are two fun flea markets to buy souvenirs. Shows every night on the site.

The staff especially the reception are not very welcoming. Especially at the finish, you get off anywhere they get mad no more smiling. My room was on the 4th floor facing the pool and the sea, the beautiful view. The beds are not comfortable with change and that's it. Everything else worked great, even the hair dryer. The only unpleasant thing is really the bathrooms on the site. Never toilet paper, the doors do not stand in, no trash. You can always go to our room but it's a bit far when you're on the beach.

Hotel very clean, room service early in the morning and always very well, 5 minutes from downtown Varadero (so we can go out at night or banging a giant lobsters to good food at least once!), The animation website truly dynamic (of course if one takes the trouble to participate!) in addition to dance the night really impressive, really great pool and very clean, food very well (remember we are in a other country, the peanut butter, there is none in Cuba!) and very good a la carte restaurant (try: pizza with shrimp and filet mignon italian abroad), mostly friendly staff, especially at the buffet, good drinks at the bars (especially the mojitos!). And what about the beach: really fantastic, always clean, breathtaking water, soft sand sweet sweet! Are all, excellent but really excellent value for money.

Some people on staff are less friendly (and sometimes the bar in the restaurant a la carte) but generally very good. Beds may be more comfortable but hey, we're not going there to sleep!

For a trip less than $ 1,000, this is an excellent value for money. Beautiful hotel and rooms very clean, no worries. In general the staff is friendly. The beach is beautiful (It's Varadero). I have not been included activities. Obviously, near the center, so it's easy to walk out safely. The great coffee to drink at the lobby bar at 7:30 in the morning. Hotel no single supplement, (but there was very little). The restaurant is ok internationnal, Cuban is not terrible.

Customers generally too old and very little variety (country origin), 85% of Quebecois ... The food was very sober, very varied, not always hot. This is not the first time I travel to Cuba, and I know it's not haute cuisine, but I must admit that this time it was ordinary. The drink also were not good. The bar and restaurant from the beach should be avoided. It lacked dynamism and animated by the animators, perhaps because 70% of clients had more than 65 years :-( (.

The beach is great although we were unable to bathe for several days due to high winds. She is under constant surveillance, both day and night, to avoid accidents. As we could not swim at the beach, we have instead is the pool. It is very large and well maintained. It is to be expected, Cuba is not recognized as a gastronomic destination. The buffet was good no more. The beef was tough, the fish had a strange color, but pork and chicken was very well dressed. Access to a la carte restaurants Italian and Cuban was relatively easy. As for the International, the most popular at what they told us we could not go because it was closed on alternate days. The snack has allowed us to vary the menu with pressed sandwiches, hot dogs and hamburgers. We were surprised at the speed of service personnel who serviced the toilet that was defective when we arrived at midnight the evening. The fault mechanism has been completely changed the next day. The job of the room was spotless and we have not seen any "bugs". The staff was generally smiling. Many even speak French fairly well and others we always manage to understand. The exterior of the hotel was very good and we enjoyed the location because we were able to walk through the streets of the city, coach, bus or taxi coconut. We were also very ready for several flea markets .. We also enjoyed our trip to Havana distant only 2 hours from Varadero. Our guide spoke excellent French and responded kindly to our questions about life in Cuba. He brought us to visit a rum distillery and a factory production of cigars ... Sorry, we could not have done the catamaran due to high winds. The hotel offers many activities: Sting, bingo, Latin dance, aerobics, Spanish lessons, etc.. We traveled with Sunwing and it was very good. Their representative was very present, in AM and PM, at our hotel. Considering the amount we paid for our stay, it is still a good price / quality ratio.

We booked a standard room VIP room with Sunwing thinking that we would have a good room ... But the VIP simply means that the beach towel is in our room and there is beer, juice and water in the fridge ... The rooms, at least in our area, would have benefited from receiving a lick of paint brushes. The mattresses are not very comfortable but we made it in time .. The hotel offers an internet service but expect not to have much access ... First, you have to buy access cards and 7 days, we were able to buy once because there were more ... Throughout our stay, there was only one computer that worked. When finally you have the card and the computer, harness yourself to wait because it's low speed ...

avon we had a wonderful trip, all was clean we had a good bed, eat it was good, a nice swimmingpool, and the beach is wonderful; cétait the ith two times That was in 2000 and the first time cétait ok the first time also ; his bother us no return i; nice and beautiful holiday temp;;;

not much just the negatife seviette that netait not exchange; servers and weary he falla the tipe to be well served if we except some voyages not one has parsa all was well,,,

The beach and the site is very good.

However, the buffet and a la carte restaurans leave désirer.Il really there's not much good. The staff is not all smiles and even without tipping. There are no latches in public toilets and no site papier.Nous were very disappointed. For a 4 star .... The advantage is the village of VARADERO which is very close. ON can go eat at night
