We have just returned from a week in Varadero. We were booked into the Villa La Mar for the week, but after arriving and seeing this horrible place we asked our tour rep to change hotels, however this took two days. The hotel was very dirty, our room had gum stuck to the wall above the bed (that wasn't our's).... more

HOLA or should I say "hello" I just returned from the Villa La Mar on Mar 29th 2008 and I must mention that I had a GREAT vacation. The hotel was okay, the food was not to my liking but they did have a 24 hr snack bar across the street which suited my needs. It served the basics such... more

When I bought my ticket (*only 423$ for an all-included week stay!), I wasn't expecting much. With all the negative reviews and this cheap price! In facts, this was one of my best trip ever. You have to know that I'm not a fan of 5-stars hotels and I don't think these people would appreciate Villa La Mar. I'm more... more

I just arrived home yesterday from this hotel. It is true that you get what you pay for. I paid $405.00 per person including taxes. The room wasn't that good, but you could manage. The food wans't very good, but they did come across with a couple very good meals. Saturday night included candle light with a traditional Cuban meal.... more
