Positive :

25-06 to 10-07 of the holiday. Very nice and great site. Nice rooms, corridors and lobby very clean. Places much more like a 4 1/2 *; the gardens near the lobby and pools are beautiful too. Many free water activities on the beautiful and wide beach. The buffet is varied with lots of vegetables and fresh fruit, several dishes cooked on the plate, but a bit repetitive. Good ice cream. About two weeks, I have not heard anyone complain of buffet even my son; people had plates full of money. The buffet closes at 14:30 noon, for more choices, go there at least 45 minutes before closing. Resto à la carte: Japanese good (rarely seen as good in Quebec), Restaurant Seafood really good big langousses and crab legs at will, good Italian, Mexican good but small portions, Cubin ordinary. With a few pesos, you will make more restaurants than expected. The lobby is nice for a drink or a cappuccino. Go to the piano bar, it's relaxing. The staff is friendly even without tipping. The performances of Cuban music are very good outside in the evening around 8 pm. We spent two beautiful weeks. Bring donations of clothing, it is appreciated. If you have a family, go ahead without fear they'll love. To compare, in our opinion, the best restaurants are here at Melia las Dunas in Cayo Santa Maria, which is a 41/2 *.

Negative :

Bring OFF, there are many mosquitoes. Canadians are more than 95% of travelers during this period and they leave their glasses to hang allentours the pool and then they complain that it's dirty. It is true that he lacked the personal allentours to clean the pool. Also, lack of beach towels from time to time and certain kinds of liquors in room one day was missing hot dog at the snack bar, but in general everything was perfect. The last days, arrival of a mega teen gang. it's weird that the hotel lets do that. Great vacation, especially since we paid $ 700 a week. At that price, I do not think we could do better in Varadero or elsewhere.

Comments from nancygravel8 on Memories Varadero :

Positive :

We were at the Sirenis July 5 to 12. Extraordinary temperature heat and the sun was at the rendezvous. We were with Nolitours Chameleon block section 31 the second floor, room very clean and excellent maid. The block is near the beach but otherwise you should walk, for us it was okay but the kids loved less. What about the sea .. WOW, incredible color. Pedal boats and kayaks were always available for a ride, it was appreciated because we wanted with the heat still be in the water. Side trip we tried the day Multihull lobster dinner on the island of Cayo Blanco and also swimming with dolphins. Unforgettable day to put in our memories!! I suggest you 99 pesos adults and children under 13 years 30 pesos.

Negative :

The cleanliness of the site is really neglected ... full of glasses and food on the floor. Admittedly, people do pick up then nothing to help staff. All week not once I saw the staff to clean the two pools, while the glasses were floating there. Restaurants listed in the map we were disappointed because not able to have the restaurants we wanted, all reserved already and yet I was the first in line the morning after our arrival .... My other point is the buffet , no fan ... phew with 35 degrees and flies it was rather unpleasant. The staff is poor, not very helpful, the answers to my requests were sorry ... We were two adults with three children so two rooms, and unable to be in the same block, it took me really that persists with the guy at the reception and finally after 2 days have at least the second room on the third floor of our block ... phew! Good thing I got a deal. A truly for families with young children because my teenagers are a bit bored ... entertainment almost nonexistent. Couples wanting to relax refrain from this place.

Comments from Chantal on Memories Varadero :

Positive :

Everything was wonderful. The weather was perfect. offerttes trips have increased our satisfaction. About site étaitent fantastic buffets If you choose well is extra. Those in plaingnent should not go out often from home .... there are important to choose the dishes prepared on the grill instead of choosing the dishes already prepared in advance in the middle of the buffet. We liked the activitées the beach .. yes you have to pay for some activitées such as banana boat'' but'' we're on holiday .. We pay much more in Quebec or on the beaches of Maine. In short everything seemed perfect!

Negative :

The only negative we can do on here is that people who want it all Cubans have unfortunately used to receive tips for booking the a la carte dinners ... but is it-it is really worth personally ... we preferred the buffet to the restaurants in catres (Méditéranéen and French)

Comments from Isabelle on Memories Varadero :

Positive :

Nice site, huge pool with a slide that the kids loved. Beautiful beach. Smiling staff. Very highly rated entertainment.

Negative :

Poorly maintained site. Never paper and soap in the bathroom, imagine the hands of people who go to the buffet. We were four and we all got sick. Room not ready when we arrived because little pay to keep it after checkout, so those who arrive expecting. Not enough chairs and palapas on the beach or the pool. Very regular and repetitive buffet, a la carte restaurant well when there is room. Get out your pesos for what you might have in another hotel. We prefer the trip penynsula and Barcelo Solymar!

Comments from Julie Et Marc Désilets on Memories Varadero :

Positive :

The sun and heat were at their peak. The clarity of the sea, wow! shows very well

Negative :

We travel often in the south and we are very disappointed of the Sirenis salina.Nous were with Nolitours (cameleon gold) which was not respected by the wholesaler. The site is very dirty especially the buffet and a la carte restaurants, trails leading to the sea are full of waste short unheard of elsewhere. I saw the lady escaped his pasta utensils on the floor and put them back in the pasta without embarrassment ... we had to wait for ever for the fries, croissants, it lacked everything, all the time. food always cold. They are very addicted to tip, people pay to have clean restaurants, chairs the sea etc etc. Mosquito egg very tiring even with lotion ... The pools were very blurred. The site is huge and shuttles always met. Cubans little smiling. We paid $ 759 because fortunately not worth more. This is a 3 star almost without plus.animation inexsistante. The site is very poorly maintained. We met people who traveled in the same place last year and said noticed a sharp deterioration of the site, short, viva the Dominican Republic (Punta Cana)

Average score (3.7/5):

Comments from Nathalie Lemay on Memories Varadero :

Positive :

The sun and heat were to go. The beach, as usual in Varadero, was magnificent. We enjoyed our two a la carte restaurants (Cuban and Steak house). The situation was ideal for our block (block 31) near the beach. This allowed us to spend our days on the beach.

Negative :

This is a very big hotel ... We had the impression that the locals do what they can but they are overwhelmed ... as for the cleanliness of the room and (c ' was not very clean) than on food (buffets are not very appetizing). My husband and I stayed in several hotels in Varadero and we never complained about the food as we always find something to accomodate (it was still the case) but it was definitely the worst of all hotels we visited. I know we're in Cuba and that we should not ask too much then that's why I choose my words. there is always something to do (pasta, bread, fruit, grilled meat) but it is expected to have a menu very, very repetitive. There was also disappointed by the hotel staff that expects a tip for everything and nothing (even the girl who made omelettes in the morning showed us her small glass tip ...). In short, we had a great week because it was very beautiful and very hot and luckily we paid a very low price. This hotel is a 4 star and you should not pay more than $ 1000.00 for one week (and even that is a bit expensive for what it is).

Comments from chantalclement on Memories Varadero :

Positive :

Beautiful site, the cleanliness of the rooms is extra. The site is generally very good. We traveled two families and all were happy. The sea is beautiful and we were well served by most staff. We walk a lot but it gets worse when you have nothing else to do. Massage service very well. The meals were generally good.

Negative :

Difficulty in booking a la carte restaurant but it is understanding the site was complete.
