DIOS. BENDIGA. SIEMPRE. ESA. BELLA. ISLA. CUBA❤❤❤❤❤❤LOVE YOU
Hello from Barrie 👋 !
Love your videos, love your optimism and positivity.
We are going to Memories Caribe ( next week) after your watching your Cayo Coco videos. Fingers crossed 🤞 for weather.
Thanks for keeping us informed 😊 !!!
Thanks!!! Have an amazing time!!!
Great video again buddy cheers hope your trip went welll
Fish, London, ON here. Been to Memories Caribe last year and loved it. A couple friends and I almost booked this same Cayo Largo trip for last week, but went camping instead. Instead of unlimited cocktails and sunny beaches it rained almost everyday, the tent leaked, the tarp was just small enough that your back would get wet sitting at the picnic table, a campsite is $42/night now, and firewood is $12/bag. Including camping, drinks, and food it would have been cheaper to go to Cayo Largo
Lol. We will be in Cayo Coco in Sept instead of Muskoka. No dishes, no LCBO run, no cooking, or freezing our ass at night! Just beach and cocktails for a glorious week. Probably saved money for a week off! See ya there next year??
@@cherikentie that sounds so much better! Definitely see ya there next year lol
We went in april 2024 and we loved it..yes the hotel need some renovation but the beaches ❤❤❤
Yup!!!
But we feel in love with the charm
@@Finding-Fish idem
you should have seen the beach 10 years ago !!!. it was sol cayo largo back then and the beach was 10 times bigger . next time you go there take the taxi from the airport to the hotel instead of the bus.you will arrive before everybody in the plane lol and it wont cost you much lol.
Want to be blown away go to Playa Paraiso. We went to that resort 8 yrs. in a row till my wife got gravely ill and also a vet from Toronto. Miss it ALOT!
Well done review Mike and Jenny. thank you
Glad to see you both finally made it to what I call paradise/heaven on earth!!!❤❤❤
Cayo Largo del sur was our very first and second trip to Cuba back in May 2015 and then again in October 2016. We had met many who do travel twice per year during those months and have for many many years now.
If you want to see the ocean from your room, stay in one of the ocean view rooms on the second floor!
The second trip we took in October 2016 we were pleasantly surprised that the exact same room was reserved for us without a request as this really made it feel special and like our home away from home! With such great attention to detail, and all the beauty this island has to offer, its no wonder people return many times over! Cubans dont seem to forget a face either! You really do feel like family!
If you like walking, you can take a beautiful walk to Paraiso Beach which is even more stunning and beautiful then the hotel beach! We actually walked this with another couple we had met the second time we were there and it took us about two hours with of coarse stopping a couple of times for a dip in the ocean spending about a half hour just floating with great conversation! Expect to see sting Ray and turtle holes! Also barbies and such some set up themselves along the way! You can also rent some wheels or hire a taxi to get you there a lot faster, but like flying, you will miss.out on some of the most pristine waters/sands and probably the most peaceful walk ever! Great place to take pictures and the water is a lot calmer for swimming at Paraiso Beach. They have cold drinks and snacks too.
Also another beach just about one km further, you will find Playa Serena with deep white sand many palm trees, water sports, toys, another restaurant/bar. The trip by taxi to the Marina is also really worth the short trip. They serve a great chicken and or Lobster dinner, add to that a nice bottle of wine at a great price! You can also do some shopping and see all sizes of turtles for a very small fee! They offer night life with an out door bar and dancing with a live Dj on stage, light show at the Marina a few times per week with I think Wednesdays being the best! A bus will pick you up at a specific time from the hotel lobby for just a couple of dollars. Gotta do it especially if you like to dance!
Excursions are also wonderful! Need to check out Iguana Island! Take some bread with you on that excursion and from there off to a natural pool and snorkeling as well, the fish and others on the excursion will love you! The bread really brings the fish around for some excellent underwater photos!
We haven't been back to Cayo Largo since the hotel changed hands, for we do have to pay extra for flights and hotel stay to Toronto or Montreal from Central Canada so Cayo Guillermo has been a more affordable choice for us at this time. My favorite place also to eat is El Rancho on the beach with that amazing view!!! I hadn't noticed in your video a snack bar attached to the swim up bar. I will have to watch again. The snack bar by the pool was also one of our favorite places to sit for a beer and El Rancho used to be open for lunch only and also served the returning guests their special lobster dinner. Some changes I guess since the resort became Memories and that is to be expected, but it doesn't take away from the islands natural Beauty! I also love the small size of this resort for you can get just about anywhere on this property within approximately a five minute walk.
I am so glad you had travelled there and are sharing your experience on your channel, for most people i have spoken with especially here in Central Canada have never even heard of this stunning island in Cuba and it deserves all the attention it can get! Although some regulars have said they would rather keep this island a secret and to have it all to themselves!Lol
Cayo Largo will always be our #1 destination and Love for an all inclusive resort vacation in Cuba! ❤
Thank you for sharing all of your travels and experiences as I do enjoy your content and will continue to tag along with you two lovley folks on your amazing journey's to see some of the most amazing places and people on the planet!
🌴❤🌴❤🌴
My heart will forever and always belong to
Cayo Largo! 😘
Ok thanks so much for the comment, i will read it a few time and probably have to reply once i can let all in info set in!!!We absolutely love this resort!!!we have more videos coming about Cayo Largo😀
That fantastic and appetizing live buffet
It was!
We have been waiting for this review. This hotel was our first trip to Cuba and fell in love with it and it's beaches. We have heard and seen that the beaches had been eroded by past storms. We have also tried what is now know as Sunfish which was great. Oh yes my husband would get up at 0600 to walk the beach. 😊😊 this made us wanting to go back.
This Resort was Awesome!!! I will definitely go back next year!!! I have a few more Cayo Largo videos to come over the next few Saturdays. Thanks for watching and your comments
Came home from Cuba one week later my place caught on fire. Been living at my sister's in the trailer. Me and kiely staying strong. she's still pulling off 90s in school and im still working hard. Can't wait to just get back into our home. Can't wait to get back to Cuba
That’s Terrible but good for you guys to Muster Forward in this situation!!!
Keep going Justin
Great video! 👍
Thanks! Subscribe 💕
Nuther good one Mike. Looks it could be worth a try. Understand it is quite a sea turtle area.
Yes it is!! Check our video next Saturday at 9:00 am- it’s going to be amazing! 🐢
be there next week!
Very good video, very informative
Glad you think so!
Thanks for the video. Never been to Cayo Largo. We love Cuba and try to go at least once a year. I would love to try Cayo Largo
I love it there!
We first went to Cayo Largo about 6 years ago, and it was our go-to place in Cuba, then the last couple years it was closed , so we went to Cayo Coco instead, it was awesome there, but Cayo Largo will forever be our favourite place , we met people there that have been over 60 times.
It might be our new fav!!!
Thank you for your video very happy to see that this place is just as charming as when we went there in 2011 besides we are going back there at the end of September this year can't wait to see your next images continue to make us dream!!
I loved it here!
Today is December 18 and I am with your videos in the store, they are magnificent to show my Cuba and its beautiful beaches
Amazing
Nice guys! Heading to Memories Caribe in January...heading back there around then? lol
Actually I might be!!!
Definitely heading somewhere at the end of January for 4-5 days!
We are going to Cayo largo memories thanks to watching you videos
Have fun!!! William
Thanks for this review. My friends and I have been to this resort a few times before ownership changed. The beaches are a lot smaller now than our prior visits, so we opted to return to Memories Caribe. I think we will have to return to Cayo Largo soon as the resort looks great, and we also enjoyed getting to know some of the staff.
We had a great time at this resort!!! Our bed was comfortable and the people were amazing!!! We had fun!!!
I have a few more videos coming the next few Saturdays !!!
Thanks
For watching 😀
Hi guys!
Amazing and very informative video 👍👍😍😍 Question - is there any shade on the beach? I didn’t see any palm trees or umbrellas 😮 We loved everything from the video. The only question - are there any umbrellas to hide from direct sun? Thank you! ❤️💓
No Trees but yes to umbrellas and the beach boys will put them up for you!!!!
Enjoy your travels
Mike
Mike&Jen, Love seeing you both 🫶!! You just got me hooked on the beach at Memories in Cayo Largo. I usually travel with my son 22, we make perfect travel buddies, just like you guys.
Thanks for your wonderful detailed videos. Great job!! 👏🏽Sound, view quality, ocean views, restaurant details, everything detail is just totally A1!! I travelled all my life as well, the quality of the info you provide is everything someone who is not use to travelling needs to hear.
Kuddos on everything!! Bravo!!! 👏🏽👏🏽
I’ll surely see you somewhere along the way. Hey to Jenny, 🖐🏼 your Awesome!! Take care & see ya!!🥰❤
PS. Can’t beat the sound of the ocean, a lounger chair and blanket on the beach is where I sleep most nights 😉
omg Amazing!!!! thanks for the wonderful Comments!!!!
we appreciate it!!!
We are heading to Memories in 8 days!! So stoked :) thanks for this video
Hope you enjoy it!
Please watch some of my new content!!!
Cuba is still suffering
Please remember that when you travel to Cuba!!!
They still will have shortages!!!
But the beaches coffee and people will always remain amazing
I hope we run into to you guys sometime in Cuba!! Love your vids
Hey thanks!!!!
I appreciate it
Can you make a video maybe showing the route on the way over to the resort ? Maybe a taxi drive ?
Love your videos. Did you spend much time at Sirenis Beach and Paraiso Beach? Definitely our favourite beaches in all of Cuba.
I have a video coming out about it soon
Sirena Beach coming soon
thank you for this review! We haven't done Cayo Largo yet (going to Cayo Coco again in a few weeks). Will look up the ala cartes there and check out tripadvisor but this review was fantastic!!
I have now put this resort on my "consideration" spreadsheet...yes I have a spreadsheet
Spread sheet!!! Love it
Good thinking
I’m head to Santa Maria soon!!
@@Finding-Fish yup, spreadsheets for every year/ every trip :) Santa Maria, been there twice myself, as has my wife (3 different resorts for us lol... Melia Las Dunas both, Valentin, just me, and Angsana my wife).
Thank you 😊
Another great video guys. Pleasantly surprised how much food and drink selections during the " off" season. We're there lots of Canadians at the resort? PS. Who gets up at 7:30 am while on vacation 😮
Resort was 1/3 full lots of all Canadians
My wife and i stayed at this resort the first week of July through Canada day. and of the 10 resorts i have stayed in Cuba i absolutely fell in love with Cayo largo. The staff at this resort was the best i have had in my 20 plus years of travel. we are even returning for Easter this year.
Thanks for sharing!
Rob
Mike
Just wondering if they still have a naturist section. Cheers.
oh ya!!!!
Been there in 1998. Beachclub etc nothing changed. Only the bungalows look much better now.
thanks for watching
I like the ocean waves. Sonic experience and blocks out voices.
Amazing video, this island looks magical! Any recommendation about getting there? It seems that is not anything online in order to book a flight in advance
We stayed at the Starfish back in 2020 when it was called the Pelicano. The beach is probably the best we have ever walked on. We have been to Cayo Coco as well and curious which resort did you prefer. Planning on a 2024 visit back to Cayo largo.
we really like Cayo Largo!!!!beautiful and easy and not many Flys and Bugs at the time we were there, but that could change!!!
how was the musty smell on the ground level room?
@@Finding-Fish
If you go back rent the quads!
Visited this resort last march and was missing it so look it up on youtube lol any good suggestions on resorts in cuba with similar vibes was wantng to go back asap
I was just at Daiquiri last week, Video out Saturday!!
Great Vibe!!!
Chill Like Largo!!!!
and I have a Tryp Video out,
great Vibe!!!
Pity it was a red flag day at the beach. On green flag days, a very good snorkeling reef with hundres of fish is just 200 yards off the Chiringuito beach bar.
Now that Sunwing has assumed management of all the resorts in Cayo Largo would you say the food is better than before ? We were there in 2017 and had fly issues in the buffet and cats urinating there also so were reluctant to return . Love your videos. Salud !
The bug and fly situation was ok as you can see in the videos, I didn’t see many cats!!! But the fly and cat situation can change over time and with the weather!!! We loved it but we also travel to Cuba often and understand Cuba. Mexico and Dominican are also good places
We just booked our 23rd trip to Cuba for Oct 13 to the Melia Cayo Coco , we were in Iberostar Daquari Cayo Guillermo in March. Hopefully I'll get some diving in. The diving in Cayo Largo has been by far the best ever in Cuba, .. Salud.@@Finding-Fish
Went to CL in 2011, hoping to go back this fall. Now that they have this exclusive food import license to the island that changes everything. Just curious, How full was the flight out of t.o?
Full
So happy to have found your channel. Love your videos especially the Cuba ones. We’ve been to Cuba over 30 times and we’re probably going back again in November. Have you been to Cato Cruz? 🇨🇦🥂
Hey thank you!!!
No not yet!!!
Heading to Santa Maria in September,
Cayo Coco October
And hopefully Varadero in November to finish off Cuba until end of January
Thank you ❤️🌴
@@Finding-Fishplease rank the beaches for me! Right now cayo santa maria is the besr for me. But this Cayo Largo might be a contender! I havent been and would really like to experience it as well!
My wife and have been to Memories Flamenco in Cayo Coco about 8 yrs ago. We are thinking either Memories Cayo Largo or Memories Caribe in Cayo Coco. I know Memories Caribe is adults only but we would like your opinion on both and which you would recommend. We are not picky, we prefer the pool to the beach, not the biggest drinkers. As long as the room and resort are clean and the selection of food is half decent. I appreciate your feedback and comments
We will be doing a video about this very topic in the Future!!!
Depending on when your going I would try Cayo Largo!!!
They had a few days of beer shortages but everything else was fine!!!
Our room was cleaned everyday and we had plenty of hot water and our be was comfortable!!!
Both have there plus and minus!!!
But I really like Cayo Largo and I’m a beach person who like quiet
Cayo Largo is my new fav…💕
Hi, ok so memories in Cayo Coco vs Cayo Largo? New favorite? I am interested in Cayo Largo as well, never been, typically i go to Guillermo, for kitesurfing, but have been curious about this area. Thoughts? I saw you in July from a distance in Cuba airport, dont worry not creeping you. Appreciate your feedback, Thanks.
I actually want to do the kite surfing!!!
Where do you go Starfish?
I love Cayo Largo
It was a nice change
Making a Cayo Coco vs Cayo largo video this fall
Cayo Guillermo is your place in Cuba, Starfish or Daiquiri, typically kiters from Ontario kite at Daiquiri, and Quebec peeps go to Starfish. you should find a school at both, Ukiteboard is one school, he teaches in Ontario as well, up North in Keswick, you can google.
Can you talk about booking the trips? What websites do you use to find the best deals. Any tips on that?
Discovered your RUclips channel yesterday, subscribed and have been bingeing since :)
Hey Geneva
The best time to find deals is Sunday night- Wednesday night..
A video is coming out about the whole process and why!!!!
Hard to find a deal until after Easter now!!!
But if your not in a rush you will find one!!!
Are you planing on doing reviews of holguin ressorts? Playa Costa verde looks nice!!
Love your reviews btw. Just back from memories flamenco twice cause of your vids and going to memories caribe in january.
Next Resort is Sanctuary Santa Maria
Great info as always! Does this memories have an adult only sanctuary section like some of the other Memories in Cuba
I don’t know!!!!
Thanks for the question and sorry I didn’t have the answer
I've been binge watching your videos because I haven't traveled and I am thinking cuba could be my first solo trip.
In your opinion, is this one of the better resorts? Thanks . Your videos are great. Very helpful. Cheers 😊
If your Solo!!!!
I would go to Varadero!!!
There’s a few more people and more solo Travellers in Varadero Cayo Coco!!!
Memories Caribe Adults only would be a good spot!!!great beach great staff, small resort easy to get around!!
Watch the Caribe Videos
Hope this helps
@@Finding-Fish thanks for these tips. If I make it to Cuba and see you and your wife I will give a shout hello. Cheers from a fellow Canadian ( east coast) . ✌
Love your videos! What room # did you have? Would like to book the same one! :)
i honestly cant remember!!!
Enjoy
Mike
Noticed you were drinking water at the buffet. Does that mean resorts usually have safe water? Thanks!
I have never gotten sick from the water!!!
Good to know. I watched your walking tour of Varadero and you recommended bottled water. Great content. @@Finding-Fish
Can you take a boat to Havana from here? Thanks!
Few Questions: Was it a pain having to walk/drive to get to the other beaches on the island ? Do those beaches have lounging chairs ? Also, how is the food on this resort ?
I made an entire video of it called Serena beach video, showes everything
Thank you @@Finding-Fish. Will the beach at the resort in February be just as beautiful it was in your video ? I noticed some other videos where the water had eaten up most of the beach
Can’t find my last comment, what resort you you recommend for seniors who don’t want to walk far to get around. Cayo coco, or Cayo largo, and which resort:) thanks Neighbor!
Memories Caribe!!!
Cayo coco
Nice small resort
For family with kids, Memories or starfish ? Thank u.
Both!!!
Memories and Star fish beach are beautiful
Watch my Siren beach Video
Probably better food at memories
Hello,
I have two questions:
Did you have any water issues such as shortage...
Is it true that you can also use the facilities of the neoghbour hotel?
Thank
We did not ever run short of water.
No, not true- maybe at one time you could use other hotel but Mike tried to and was turned away- another couple shared the same experience.
@@jenniferfisher4912 is the water purified?
How do they deal with food allergies?
Cuba!!!!
if'y at best
Did you see any jellyfish?
None at all!!! The water was beautiful and warm, can’t wait to return, I have a turtle video out next week
Is there a place at the hotels or at the marina to book excursions?
Yes talk with your travel Rep and they will help book excursions
Have you encountered calm waters in cayo largo ? Always red flag for swimming ?
Yes of course
But sometimes they leave the red flags up because it easy!!!
If that makes any sense
Hello I have a question: the Diamond Club services how many benefits give to the guest?
With Memories Cayo Largo I don’t really know sorry
What beach is better: Memories Caribe or Memories CayoLargo? This one seems too noisy compare to Caribe, am I right?
Caribe is a quiet calm beach, this is a wavy beach both are beautiful but I think caribe beach is beautiful
Jus to let you know. At the same time you’re there 90 % off the Cubans don’t have something to eat or most simple don’t have the opportunity to go the for a vacation, How many Cubans you saw there on vacation?
We totally understand the situation and the issues that’s facing Cuba!!!!
If you stop supporting russia, Victor, maybe your life in Cuba would imrove! Russia brings nothing but unhappiness and poverty to every republic and country it trying to " befriend" for its own benefit only!
How is mosquito
Bring bug spray
