Santa Marta - all beaches

An absolutely outstanding resort. The staff are incredibly helpful and friendly, with the impressive ability to communicate in multiple languages. While knowing a few phrases in Spanish can be beneficial, speaking English around the resort is not an issue. Highlights include the cleanliness, spacious rooms, beautiful beach areas, large pool, and excellent food options. We dined at the Tex Mex restaurant twice, which I consider the best on the property, with The Bistro coming in a close second for its good snack selection, tasty burgers, and delicious sandwiches. We would definitely return. Although the resort could use some updates, it remains the best in Varadero and is worth every dollar spent.

This beach is exclusive to hotel guests only.

This sandy patch of earth is truly a gem among the sea of mediocre beaches. It boasts a breathtaking view of the vast ocean, with waves crashing against the shore in a rhythm that soothes the soul. The sand is soft and warm, perfect for sinking your toes into and feeling the salty breeze on your skin. It's no wonder this place is considered one of the best - it's a slice of paradise that will leave you feeling refreshed and rejuvenated. So grab your sunscreen, a good book, and a cold drink, and prepare to be transported to a world of pure bliss.

The staff was very friendly and the beach was amazing. The food was decent, not top-notch, but it was very tasty with freshly grilled pork and chicken. There were entertaining shows every day and the Piña Colada was fantastic, along with other nice drinks. The rooms were good, with a nice shower, but you couldn't adjust the room temperature as the air conditioner defaulted to 22°C. The resort had a nice infrastructure with hammocks, outdoor beds, a great pool, and the beach was just a minute walk away. The water was amazing and there were comfortable chairs available on the beach. The wifi was decent and there was a great cappuccino at the coffee bar. The only downside was that if you wanted to visit Varadero city, you had to take a free bus transfer as it was a bit far to walk.

The beach was an amazing experience with its golden, fine sand.

There are so many positive things I can say about this resort! I booked the Roc Plus package through SunWing, and I am definitely planning on coming back. This resort offers great value for money with numerous added benefits. The A la Carte restaurants, both the Italian and International options, are a must-try. The breakfast buffet serves delicious omelets made with fresh ingredients. The pork, chicken, and potatoes are also quite tasty. The view of the ocean from the resort is absolutely stunning and the beach is well-maintained. They even provide free kayaking, pedal boats, and paddle boards at the beach bar. The Pina coladas and Mojitos are made fresh and taste fantastic. Additionally, the resort is conveniently located near Varadero Boulevard, where you can enjoy shopping or dancing.
