Comments from rbld62 on Villa Tortuga :

Good location, but since this hotel is Cuban, Cuban will be on vacation for the weekend, so we did settle the buffet and lilies are very messy and screaming all day, it's very unpleasant. Very very ordinary buffet.

Positive :

a few steps from handicraft and some good restaurants markets, the beach is beautiful.

Negative :

The restaurant buffet is very repetitive, and the quality is poor. I saw a few cockroaches in the dining room! There were small flies all over the food we had to pack them all the time. The smile is not very present in several used the site. Very poor service from the agent TMR Varadero. Customs policies in Cuba has changed this year so accustomed advice to Cuba placed bottles of rum in hand luggage, you can not do and this is where the head of TMR should have done his job and warn travelers. On our flight at least 40% of travelers take their bottles of rum in the trash, which I have emptied a bottle of 11 year old and a 7 year old!

Average score (3.8/5):

Comments from Micaela_88 on Villa Tortuga :

Hotel mostly frequented by European tourists, customers alone. Old couples and families with young.

Positive :

Good value for money. Very clean, good service, friendly staff. The beach is beautiful and clean enough. The room was very large comfortable beds and contrary to what is sometimes read, we had hot water and enough for 3 girls with long hair (!) The hotel is within walking distance of eateries and small town of Varadero. The bank is near and the tourist bus terminus for two storey close. The buffet is pretty well stocked, the food varied but a little bland.

Negative :

There seemed to be a lack of beach towels. We brought ours when we did not suffer. For those who love the animation, it was almost non-existent. (For me is rather positive ...). The pool is shallow. The choice of juice for children is limited to 1. There are few Cuban dishes at the buffet. They were however less bland. The food is made especially for Russian and German clients. There was a lack of convertible pesos at the hotel and it was necessary to go to the bank to change.

Comments from JFA on Villa Tortuga :

Home very nice; location at the beginning of the town, so quiet, but close to restaurants and social activities of the city. Beautiful beach. Execrable food ... TMR representative who is there to SELL packages, and nothing else. For example, it gives false information about the history of Cuba and / or Havana, they claim it is dangerous to visit Havana alone or in pairs (!) And also claims that one can not rely on transportation Cuban bus ... But this is wrong! On calle 36, you will find the bus terminal, it costs 20 CUC to /. Departure from Varadero is at 8am, returning to Havana is 18h. The ride lasts for about 2:30. 12 CUC to / for Matanza :)

Positive :

Beach and friendly staff (with a minimum tip) ... Havana and the chance to sleep in a Casa Particular (easy to find and only 25 CUC per night / per person.

Negative :

Execrable food ... But every day we (item TMR) reminds us that there are restaurants "private" close ... Calculate on average 5 to 12 CUC per meal, so if you're a couple, it will cost you 10 to 24 CUC per day for "good" food ...

Comments from fambolduc4 on Villa Tortuga :

Very good value for money.

Positive :

Clean, very friendly staff, beautiful beach enough chairs and palapas. Buffet away from food, but the specialty of the day is always good. Very successful evening shows. Good surveillance, it feels safe. Tour of the cave Bellamar and the city of Matanzas worth it for $ 29.

Negative :

Buffet lack of variation. Should serve wine at the bar, only possibility to the dining room. Lack a little atmosphere, perfect for those who love tranquility.

Average score (3.7/5):

Comments from muryelcouture on Villa Tortuga :

Pleasantly surprised, we were visited in 2007, the loby, galleries, toilets on site and rooms renovated and additional buildings for our comfort. The staff always friendly with or without tips. The evening as the day you can go walking in the center of Varadero. We liked how the scooter, 2hr sufficient to complete the island.

Positive :

We're going back because it is one of the most beautiful beaches, especially that of Villa Tortuga, it is immence and many palm trees and the bar very accessible. Our room was very clean and easy to talk to our maid, if needed, she especially appreciated the jewelry, watch, and items to put in the horses she wears the same day. The bar by the pool, there used to hambergers, toasted sandwich of ham and cheese and what about the Pina Coloda done on site and beer at will, like wine with the meal. If you want to make out there full of possibility that the agency suggests a price below 80.00. When we moved we had 20.00 Canada 19.35 in convertible pesos.

Negative :

In February the small mosquitoes arrived, it's like us in June. So if you reactions to stings, like me, we apply the Purel, green bottle, immediately to disinfect the bite and when I had bouts of scratching, I applied in Benadryl stick. At the buffet I wish they would change the decoration usually tablecloths and refresh the displays.

Comments from sergemilom on Villa Tortuga :

For my first visit to Varadero ... I had done no wait .. Even reading the comments of 5 stars hotels, there were negative comments ... then for a 3 star, I preferred to live with my choice once there, because to leave my routine and the price I paid, so ...

Positive :

The site is clean and magnique ... the beach is beautiful ... the room was quite clean and of a respectable size, balcony with privacy. Site based and quality / price ratio very interesting ... I intend to return.

Negative :

Pool of good size, but lacks a little depth ... The buffet offers variety, except that those who want to eat like a home should learn to fly ... and to budget restaurants. There is excellent walking distance to a ridiculous price ... Plastic glasses and cigarette butts lying around ... they do their best, but there should be more garbage, ashtrays and in terms of etiquette, it seems that it is not acquired at birth, but work is ... Quebec has little hotel, many Cuban weekend
