Positive :

very nice site 4 times a varadero beach beautiful. Personal of the pool bar very quiet even with children simpatique I think his first name is boris he throws ice water to children in a tease for us too when we turn back! there is always something to put in their mouths at the buffet and even if there are people on the net who have been sick dissent was there with a drink abut this? c is a place I would return. c jeep safari is great! even with small inconveniences as a Creuvaison or even two. Hint bring something to eat because it happens that we have dinner later and you can also feel bad if you have any tips to give some children on the roadside when we pass by jeep which we make bye bye and they are more in need than those who live in varadero and my DVD of the tour runs it has cost 30 pesos.profiter your holiday and appreciate every moment that goes by so fast!

Negative :

yes there are mosquitos but with good cream against mosquitoes c is not so bad and must be put anywhere even on the bottom! it bites through the machine! proffiter of a dinner a la carte for a respite! Site dirty?? if the travelers gathered there would be nothing that trainerais nor I can believe that you are on vacation but the etiquette does not take holidays it seems! there are bins and ashtrays everywhere force yourself. j've seen people eat pizza ect in the pool smoking in the water! has Moitiers empty glasses on the edge of the pool c is so difficult to walk and to throw croyer me this is not just children! j saw one 10 years collecting all the glasses in the flowers of the pool with slip to throw him I said that people should take a lesson from him in there, some twenty tennait surement.ma one big fustration is that I n ais been no hot water in my shower every day set apart an evening of great happiness or d in n ais ais had but not the end of monde.ont EST also Verily aside to settle for an Italian restaurant gentleman who bought the staff had just arrived and we pass it without it and no gene had no coupon he may be playing the big shot but he can not live AC is not done there were only us there n would not have waited so long, ca if he had waited his turn the rude! the guy at the restaurant we Verily settle with his arm. if they agree well with your cash and pay you a polite gentleman over the head gray to believe any permit so there are things like vip or c is offered to everyone but it was all right to place a la carte restaurants ca respects we pay all our journey has much everything! . Good enough emptying my heart ca is a huge well! I wish you good people that meet during your trip. the water was quiet blur the swimming pool.

Positive :

The more positive is the beach. The water is really nice and beautiful and very hot sand. The people are friendly but it's the least we can do.

Negative :

Arrival at the hotel was 11hrs in the morning and we got our room 18hrs30 and it was not that which was supposed to have ... we picked up with two small twin beds with a view of the woods, say that the cameleon gold we had great views of the beach with a nice big king! Well after complaining and I admit I had to cry, we managed to finally have a room as requested so why not we giving away? So do not you be embarrassed to demand for what you paid. For me, the food was execrable but it depends on people. No vegetables, I expected at least to have seen the good fruit up but do not expect anything, they are really ordinary. A la carte restaurants, ca did the trick. But it's not every night you can go! If you "TIPER" well, you will service. We is what we have done all week. Lack of towels in the rooms, you have to fight to have and when we have, they are all stained, dirty. They warn us not to drink tap water due to chemical agents but have bottled water is difficult. If you do not write to the maid you want water and clean towels and you want to change your sheets, then you will have none of that! If you want your room extentionner the day of departure, it is 10 pesos an hour more, for some, they were lucky because they were able to negotiate your face but if not please the public relations woman when she will answer that it can not be privileged to offer everyone! BRAVO! It's full of such small irritants that cause I would not recommend this hotel to all people who have to travel a lot and have seen and been much better, otherwise you will be disappointed. The site is corrrect, we walk a lot, there is not enough shuttle so for people who have more difficulty getting around, do not go there! Leave the site, go to the 1st Avenue and 62 Street, eateries that really the case, good lobster and strong people friendly! I confess that this is the first time I could not wait to go home while traveling in the south.

Positive :

We had good weather for 1 week. The site is great and the entertainment is great. There are shows on every night. The site is very very family, go there with your children. The hotel is well maintained in general. Gardeners and women at the buffet offers a really good service! If you want to bring back memories, there are small markets in Varadero chips.

Negative :

This is not more than 3 stars. Do not go to the Sirenis hotel chain. We arrived at 11am and check in was only 4 hours. We waited 5 hours before our room and our beach towel, because no room, they do not provide towels. We had to wait until tomorrow before having information on the site and answer our questions. When you change your money at the hotel, staff exchange to take a side of 5.5 to 7.5% on your money, so change your money at the airport. All pools and fountains on the site was not functioning. We had to wait three days before he finally opened a swimming pool. The buffet is very ordinary and not much choice from hamburgers, hot dogs and fries that you find everywhere. Come early to eat, because the choices are becoming increasingly scarce and the plates clean too! If you want to eat in your restaurant a la carte, you will discover soon enough that they are all full, except for two choices to be maleureusement your choice of restaurants. The restaurants are half full and the other half, you pay 10 pesos to dever to have a chance to try them. Each bar offers drinks different, so if you like some drinks, you go to some bar, instead of power enjoyed by all. To take a kayak or dinghy, you need to tip the staff, because otherwise you devrer long wait to get one, even if they are available on the beach. We did a catamaran trip for $ 250 Cdn. No animation by a 10 min late to sell us a CD and receive the tip. We were on the engine all along, not sailing. We are told that we will swim with dolphins, but we have had the chance to touch them a bit. We had a meal of lobster, three small pieces in tomato sauce, but for 10 pesos more we had a nice plate. We have made the high seas Apne, it was extraordinary. In general everyone will ask the tip, the cook makes you eggs at lunch and taps the bowl with the spatula tip the guy to hire. We felt that the only thing they wanted was our money.

Positive :

My boyfriend and I stayed at the Cuatro July 25 to August 1, 2009. We loved our trip. We had a week of good weather. The hotel is very clean and the people are very nice. Note that the lemonade at the bar and the coffee is delicious. You must at all costs to the Jeep Safari. This tour costs 75 pesos for the day. We made the boat, eating lobsters, snorkeling and had the chance to see wonderful place. For restaurants a la carte French remains without doubt the best. In addition, he is in a room with air conditioning which was good because it fesait very hot outside. The buffet is very much like the afternoon and evening, by cons for lunch you must try the mango and growing. If you seek tranquility, you should be in blocks of rooms from 25 to 26 or 27 because they are located near the quiet pool''''. The second pool (near the beach) has very loud music all day, animation + lots of children.

Negative :

One point is negative than when we arrived we had to wait until 16:30 before our room (we had arrived since 24:30). So make sure you bring a towel and a bathing suit for swimming. Then we had to wait three days before being able to change beach towels. The evening / morning it was impossible to stay for the shows or even the lobby because there were lots of mosquitoes.

Positive :

The room was clean and the air conditioning works well. We did the catamaran trip to Cayo Blanco, it was the best day of the trip ... the sand of the beach is really hot ... flour! For those who love lobsters, during the voyage offers it for 10 pesos a fresh lobster ... I have never seen such big! Only 69 CUC pesos cheap for this tour! The staff at the pool bar alone (Boris and Xavier) is very friendly ... All Quebec locally worshiped them. Try the juice Boris ;-) The Steak House was good and the Méditerrénéen. The gardening staff and very nice.

Negative :

For the size of the hotel, there is not enough palapas on the beach, you must arrive at 6:00 in the morning to reserve a place, thing that you attempt to do on holiday. I do not know what is with reservations to the map, but I went there when we arrived and the Japanese was booked for the week?!?!? Later that week I tried to book go to other restaurants and it was supposedly all complete except Cuba. So we went there the last 2 days. The restaurants were not even full and 3 pesos and 5 we had the Steak House and Italian. There is a P'tite GAMIC over there! Do not take the French, the portions are ridiculous. The restaurant is next to the buffet and it's not for nothing, because you have to go there after. We got wind of flights towel ... If you do not call in the end it is 25 CUC pesos you have to pay?!?!? Another GAMIC, not even that it cost a towel. It's a little wheel, the one that was stolen not want to pay and no steals in turn. The clubhouse to change the towels is only open from 15:00 to 18:00 and from 9:30 Little convenience store at 19:00. After that nothing major, we enjoyed our trip in general!

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.

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.
