It is a great location, but it is not as modern as advertised. There is no minibar or lounge and table in the double standard room. You would be better off in the queen for a cheaper price.

This place has such an amazing vibe and a wonderfully relaxed tropical feel. We absolutely love it! It's a shame it's not within walking distance of the town centre, but it's just a quick 4-minute drive or a pleasant 22-minute walk away.

The rooms are spotless! Staff is friendly and professional. The Cubana itself doesn't offer much more than a pool and bbq area, but your room would be comfortable and clean.

Liked: Amenities
Impressive rooms which are very tastefully decorated. Comfortable bed and the opportunity to use kettle, toaster, microwave and cutlery and crockery etc was very generous. As well as the impressive ‘room’ options, having a laundry with a huge washer and dryer available for free WITH washing powder made our stay so much more manageable. We’d definitely stay here again…thanks so much!
