Hotel Playa Girón

Frommer's Review

Originally designed and built as a residential community, this place is now a midsize all-inclusive resort. The rooms are housed in a series of one-, two-, and three-bedroom ranch bungalows and duplexes. Most have a separate sitting area, although sometimes the unit's only television is in the sitting room, so you can write off watching TV in bed. Most have a fridge and sink in a sort of kitchenette area. Recent remodeling has greatly improved the furnishings and decor here. Still, this place is really only for hard-core divers or bird-watchers, because if you're looking for a week of sun and fun at an all-inclusive, Cuba has many much more appealing options.

The best feature is the resort's Caleta Buena , a recreation area based around a series of natural pools in the coral and rock, located about 8km (5 miles) from the hotel. There's a grill restaurant, some sailboats, paddle boats, and windsurfers, as well as hammocks and shady palapas for kicking back, and use of the facilities here is part of the package.
