Great value for what you pay

The resort is great for someone not looking for extras. It is clean and the staff is friendly --- not much to do in the area. It is a bargain for someone looking to take a vacation without the big expense.

Amazing weather!

Resort is very nice for a 3 star resort! Beach needs alot of TLC. Don't go for the beach ... You'll be vey disapointed! Staff is very nice and friendly. Something about the Pina colada there.... Don't ask for one after 3 pm.... Seems they run out! Buffet is very boring! Same thing everyday but food is ok! Wendy, waitress at the buffet will give you a special treatment!

Friendly and Fun

Everything was easily accessable from drinks and food to loungers and games. During the day and evening there were activities for all ages, however after 10pm it seemed like the resort shut down. The food is good, no complaints other than most of the meat, particularly the "chicken". Staff is very friendly, they were the highlight of the trip. Locals as well, amazing people. All in all, I would go back in a heartbeat.

Besutiful Resort

I loved everything at this resort except for maybe the food...but please dont let that stop you, perhaps not everyone is as picky as me. The pasta, bread, egss, fruits and veggies were great! I just wasnt a fan of the protein. A great improvement for me would have been salad dressing from home. The rooms were typical. The pool and the beach obviously amazing!! The staff was fantastic and the coffee was to die for. The 3 restaurants available were very good and the service and food was top shelf. [... lire plus] The night life is lacking. There was no disco, games or pool after 8 so this was disappointing but overall everyone had a great time! Cant wait to go back!!

Good bang for your buck!

We recently attended this resort with another family. It was all we expected and more. The staff were wonderful and made it great. There was plenty to do, we were never bored. Everything was clean from the rooms to the grounds. We recommend the iced coffee with rum at the lobby bar, do not leave before having a few. It's a great place for kids, ours had a blast. We did plenty of excursions. Definitely do the snorkeling at the coral reef. The most amazing thing we have done by far!

Fantastic week!

We are a family of 5 and this vacation is well worth the $. It has a few flaws but overall value for money is great. The junior suite was spacious for all of us and clean. The food was good, had something for everyone. The staff really makes this resort stand out. I would definitely return in the future.

Overall experience very good

the location is fine, close enough to the airport and the beach is clean and nice. The majority of the staff was very pleasant and reachable, the premises very clean and kept; the food was plenty and had a variety of choices to allow guest to eat differently each meal and each day. The entertainment was excellent, I admired the staff for the long hours and clean smiles all day long. The staff from Sunwing was very helpful and informed when recommending and organizing the trips for guests. I woul [... lire plus]d go back anytime and recommend to my friends.

Fantastic Holiday !

I visited this resort in March with family and friends. At first I was a bit skeptical as the vacation was the least expensive we could find for the timing that we wanted to go. I was pleasantly suprised at the overall experience we had and would also definitely consider returning to the hotel for future vacations ! The beach was beautiful and the pool was a good size and the water was warm. The kids club was the best ever. Julio was like the Pied Piper with all the resort kids following him to [... lire plus] do various activities with most of them being poolside which was great as the kids weren't too far out of sight. The nightly entertainment was of a high calibre with professional style dancers and fun comedy shows. The food was typical for Cuba however we always found something to eat. Loved the pasta bar and the a la carte's were pretty decent too. Overall I would recommend this place for a family vacation.

I liked everything!

We had two large rooms for 4 of us. Second floor in standard buildings is better, because of outside balcony. Food was fresh and good. Beach is big and clean,white sand. A lot of activates and excursions We spent most of the time on the beach and next to the pool. Weather was nice but first 3 days March 12-14 were unusually windy.. I love this place.

Amazing resort

I loved it, it was clean, well token care of, the grounds were beautiful,neat, colorful and the people were friendly and eager to please you. The main bar area was comfortable and spacious, it was fun, a lot of activites and stuff for everyone, kids teens and adults. I will be returning with all my kids and their mates . Can't wait

Great Resort!

Nice Hotel and the food was surprisingly good. Staff was friendly and the resort well kept. Excellent value for the price. I'll go back. Only one fly in the ointment. I bought Cigars at the store beside the Cadeca just out the gate of the resort. Got ripped off large. Went back the next day after I discovered the real price. However a different lady was there. Couldn't/wouldn't make it right. Had to leave the next day and never did get it fixed. So, my advice is avoid that store. Its right besid [... lire plus]e the Cadeca. Sells Cigars, Rum and souvenirs. Other than that a very decent week.

Good Resort

Good resort with lots to do. Food was good and plenty of it. Wonderful staff, very friendly. Our room was way to close to the disco....music until 3:00 am. Pool was well looked after, bar at the beach made the best Pina coladas.

Poor

grounds ok, room poor, food poor, staff service is very poor we will not return to this resort. we have been to 7 resort in cuba this is the worst one. stray cats where all over the resort water features not in working order staff is more interested scamming the resort and supplying their friends with goods intended for tourists

Resort was clean and safe

Grounds well maintained, people so friendly, food was good, hola sun representative very helpful, beach was great while a lot of sea weed washed up the staff was diligent in keeping at bay, the night show and entertainment staff execelent, kids program and overall care was second to none. The bartenders very patient and kind (they deserved to be tipped) The waiters and cooks also need to be tipped as they go the extra mile, the only complaint was the disco noise after hours (goes to 4.am too muc [... lire plus]h BOOM BOOM after a while you cant hear yourself think never mind sleep)

Relaxing resort

Not a 5 star, but a very relaxing environment. Smaller resort,junior suites are sufficent 1 buffet restaurant, decent variety. Beach bar that serves hamburgers and hotdogs (fries) which they never have, fried plantains instead Great coffee bar, open 7 am to 11 pm and a 24 hour lobby bar, good Spanish coffee for after dinner. A la carte are nice, but again definitely not 5 star. Pretty good evening shows and a good entertainment staff.If you are going to shop there basically isn't any in this are [... lire plus]a. This is a beach holiday location.

Fantastic family trip!

We've been to Gran Club 4 times now and this time was the best ever. Staff are always welcoming and accommodating. The entertainment staff go out of their way to please everyone and work alot of hours in the day. Food was better than ever, plenty of fresh fruit, breads and eggs in the morning, we love their bacon awesome. Usually the food is a little blah but this time it seemed like a bigger variety of pork, chicken and ice cream for desert was absolutely delicious. The weather could have been  [... lire plus]better but that's mother nature. Our room was clean and everything was working except for a light bulb in the bathroom, we asked to have it changed but it was never done ah well that's Cuba. We liked the beach clubs snack bar- hamburgers, hot dogs and fries really good. Bring ketchup, mustard, peanut butter and maple syrup for the French toast and pancakes. Hurray for Cuba.

Resort was what I hoped for at a great price

Everything was excellent. There was no complaints from day one. Staff food and grounds were great. The people were so friendly and helpful.I enjoyed every day Iwas there and do plan to go again .Drinks by the pool was the best just so relaxing. i will count the months till I return.

The nightlife was great but the food wasn't

It was a party every night. There are 2 clubs within walking distance. Stick to buying beer there because they rip you off on mixed drinks. The hotel was clean and the staff was great but the food made me and my friends sick. I travel a lot and never get the runs and this time I did. Bring snacks, you'll appreciate it. The A la cartes were awful, don't bother and they don't have most items on the menu. All and all it was good for the price.

Great Trip

The hotel was very open and not over built on like the Breezes next door. the staff were very friendly. the entertainment was great. There were a lot of activities to sign up for. The Catamaran tour was fantastic I have never seen so many beautiful fish.

Great Resort

This was my second time staying at Gran Club and there is a reason I went back. The staff are amazing, friendly and courteous. When I go back to Santa Lucia, I will either be staying with friends and family or at this resort again. Love the people!
