I just came back from Cuba and stayed at the Blau varadero resort in varadero and all I can say is it was unforgettable and I had the best time of my life. The staff were so great and friendly.. I felt at home instantly. I brought some toiletries for the maids and staff and just loved going for lunch... More

Unfortunately, we didn't get to find out because when we arrived at the hotel on 13/5/13 we were informed that there was an electrical problem on several floors and there weren't any rooms available, even though they checked in a foreign family right in front of us! We later found out they had overbooked and many other couples who were... More

Spent seven nights at the Blau from May 2 to May 9, 2013. The resort was what I expected in a Cuban resort. The rooms were dated, although the resort is only eight years old. The rooms were clean and the maid 'Daulema (sp)' was awesome! Had a few problems with the room upon check-in which were remedied fairly quickly.... More

Travelled to Cuba 26/04/13 - 06/05/13. On arrival welcomed by a lovely reception area. Check in swift. Room - we chose a garden room which was very nice and quiet, also offered privacy away from the pool. Great balcony for sipping drinks in the evening. Minibar topped up every day with bottled water, 2 beers and 2 cokes. Katia our... More

Where to start, well to be honest, initially at the beginning of the trip I was starting out with not enjoying the hotel due to some staff issues at the beach bar where I found a security guard urinating on the walkway which shocked me and then the night staff at the beach bar where more concerned with shutting down...

We stayed here for 11 nights from April 22nd to May 2nd. This was the second part of our split site holiday and it was the ideal way to relax after 4 nights in Havana. The Hotel is one of the larger hotels on Varadero beach but it is incredibly peaceful and although the hotel was full it never felt... More

Room on third floor with balcony, didn't have any problem with noise, yes could hear the piano bar but this stopped at a reasonable hour. Food was actually pretty good for an all inclusive hotel in Cuba with lunch probably about the best. The red wine served with the buffet meal was quite decent and the waiting staff excellent. We...

For the 2nd leg of our Cuba holiday we stayed at the Blau Varadero. An imposing, contemporary building set right on the beach. The hotel is very well run, especially the restaurants, and the staff are friendly and helpful. The public areas are clean and well maintained, and there was always a quiet sunbed at anytime of the day. The... More

The hotel itself is quite stunning and the service was amazing. The staff couldn't do enough to make your visit great. The pool and beach were both great and there was lots of seating both on the pool and the beach. The food was not great, there wasn't much selection at the buffet and it was pretty bland (which is...
