    We have been to Cuba 11 times. Holguin, Cayo Coco, Camguey, Santa Maria. Cuban families work very hard for their land. Definitely unspoiled people! Love love love! We bring down medical supplies every year.

      @farhatagwaeten1870, The Blau Varadero is a stunning resort. Not to big with an incredible atrium. The pools were amazing too. The Mojito in Cayo Coco had the best A la Carte food I've had in Cuba. The chefs here are award winning, having come in #1 in Cuba in this year's competition. The staff at the Mojito are super friendly and genuine, making sure you have a great time. The Pullman Cayo Coco is a big resort but was wonderful. They had the best evening shows bar none. The daytime entertainment was superb and they put on an incredible Cuba Day. The Collection side offers some great perks including an A la Carte that you can eat all your meals in. There is a huge Quebec clientele at the Pullman, something like 80% I was told. Of course the beaches at all 3 resorts are stunning. Hope that helps.

      Thank you for watching! The Mojito is a lovely resort but in my opinion, the staff make it great. Very friendly and dedicated to making the vacation fun and enjoyable. In all honesty, the buffet did not have a lot of food choices but everything I ate there was tasty. The a la cartes, though, were the best I've had in Cuba.

    Great video . What camera did you use? I understand Cayo Coca has lots of mosquitoes?

    • @markinthetrail
      @markinthetrail  Год назад +1

      Thank you. I use the DJI Osmo Action camera. Yeah, we were there last May. At the beginning of the week, the mosquitoes were ok, but by the end of the week, they were completely unbearable. Mosquito spray did not help. At the airport, the driver took too long to unload the bags, so people began opening the hatches and unloading the bags themselves because we were being attacked by mosquitoes. When boarding the plane, they would only let batches of people go to the plane and board before letting the next group go because we were attacked by mosquitoes as soon as we stepped outside. The resort did what it could, but the mosquitoes were still a problem.

    Also the buffet was pretty mid also there were some good food but it wasn’t the best breakfast the only appetizing thing was an omelet. The lunch is pretty good id say it competes with dinner but sadly there is no a la cartes which I was expecting but I guess with the shortage of food and everything else ig it’s good but is it worth 4 grand for 4 people No I would rather go to another resort. The staff here tho is amazing really good and fun people. The beach is amazing to for the pools tho I wish there was a swim up bar for every pool but there’s only one for the main pool where people are at. If your looking for rooms with ac I would watch out because when I first got here out door was left a crack open and it was so humid it was just to hard to sleep I was to sweaty and sticky.

      Hi Ivan. Even with very few people it was a blast. We all got along and had a great time together. What made it even better was the staff, which treated us like family and really added to our fun. There are excursions you can take from the hotel into Morón and Ciego De Avila, and others. There is also a shopping area within a very short walk from the resort. I'll be putting out videos on both of these in the near future.

Now the food the food here is “ok” the snack bar u only have 3 options ham sandwich with fries burger or chicken sandwich but the chicken sandwich is just chicken cut up mixed with mayo on toasted bread.

    Did you tip? Did you tip with Canadian money or Cuban pesos?

    • @markinthetrail
      @markinthetrail  Год назад +1

      Hey there. Yes, we tipped with Canadian $. The Cuban peso is devalued, and they can only buy some basic necessities with it. They require foreign currency to buy most things. They can only use bills, so it may be a good idea to bring American $1 for drink tipping, etc. Their banks will not accept damaged bills, so try to bring new ones if possible.
