This elegant flagship of the Meliá chain is the top hotel on Cayo Coco and one of the finest hotels in Cuba. Popular with wedding parties and honeymooners, it is now an adults-only resort. The property is hip and stylish throughout, chic for an all-inclusive beach hotel. The resort has 76 fantastic bungalow rooms built out over a natural lagoon, separate from the other facilities and very private. Suites and junior suites are huge, with dining tables, inviting screened balconies, and very nice bathrooms. Superior standard doubles on the lagoon have refined decor and unscreened balconies. In this case, we actually prefer the first-floor units, as they have fabulous private balconies close to the lapping water. The rest of the grounds away from the lagoon are nicely landscaped, and rooms in the main part of the hotel are arranged like a tropical village. The hotel's excellent stretch of beach, Playa Las Coloradas, fronts a pretty, protected bay. The hotel's Las Caletas restaurant is a beautiful open-air, tentlike affair built on a dock over the lagoon. An interesting feature on the premises is the Club Cubano, an information center that offers Spanish classes, seminars, dance lessons, and information on Cuban culture. Guests are free to patronize the dance club and other facilities at the Sol Meliá hotel next-door. There's also an open-air theater with nightly entertainment.
