8 Melia Las Americas - Postcard Worthy Beach

As mentioned, Cuba is home to the most stunning beaches you will ever feast your eyes upon! Not only are you bound to walk some of the whitest of white sand beaches, but the water itself is crystal clear. While the pool is always a fun spot to hang out, you won't ever want to leave the beach at Melia Las Americas, or an of their sister resorts.

7 Be Live Los Cactus - Peace & Quiet Guaranteed

While all-inclusive resorts are simply the best, adult-only all-inclusive resorts in Cuba are truly where the party is at.

The tranquil atmosphere will allow you to escape your everyday life and chaos without a single cry or shout of a child. It sounds like pure bliss if you ask us!

6 Melia Varadero - White Sand Beaches

Much like many of the Melia resorts, Melia Varadero is also one of the best spots to vacation to. The upscale resort offers guests a stunning beachfront experience with gorgeous white beaches that will have you mesmerized for your whole stay. In addition to the soft white sand beach, you can enjoy the two grand pools with waterfall features, over five restaurants, and basketball and tennis courts.

5 Bellevue Playa Caleta - Power Outages From Storms

While Cuba sounds like a dream, there might be times when it can become a nightmare. Cuba does suffer from some downsides, particularly at the Bellevue Playa Caleta, which is known to have lots of power outages during storms. In this case, if you are traveling during rainy seasons, you might want to ensure your resort has the power to withstand rain and strong winds.

4 Sol Palmeras - Party Central

While getting your party on is always a fun time, sometimes you are just looking for some peace and quiet. If rest and relaxation are what you are after, it is probably best to avoid Sol Palmeras, considering they are quite the party destination. They host numerous foam pool parties and have enough bars to liven the entire country up.

3 Cayo Libertad Hotel - Awful Food

While Cuba offers great beaches, fun activities and stunning wildlife, they are not known for their 5-star dining experiences. While some resorts offer better food than others, you won't get much luck at the Cayo Libertad Hotel, which has countless reviews claiming the food is bland and very repetitive.

2 Grand Memories Varadero - No Hot Water

In addition to having hit or miss food options, you can find yourself in a bit of pickle when it comes to the water in Cuba. Many resorts, including Grand Memories Varadero, have quite outdated washrooms, many of which do not have adequate tanks to heat up the water across the entire resort. So, a cold shower might occur a time or two during your stay!

1 Club Kawama - Outdated Rooms

As mentioned, Cuba is not home to the most luxe places! Despite the lovely hospitality and gorgeous beaches, hotels like Club Kawama don't offer guests much when it comes to the rooms. Many reviews claim that their bedrooms are extremely outdated and seem to appear straight out of a 1960s decor magazine.
