We have been to this hotel in Cuba five times already, and every single stay has been one of the best experiences of our lives. The price is very reasonable, and what you get for it is truly amazing — outstanding service, excellent food, and a perfect atmosphere. We honestly cannot complain about anything. The beach is a paradise: always clean, spacious, with plenty of beach beds. The beach bar is fantastic, and the staff is always helpful and attentive. You don’t even need to walk up to the bar — someone is always ready to bring you any drink you want right to your chair. We are very grateful to Yasmani for his amazing service at the beach bar. The customer service team is incredible. The girls at the desk are always smiling, welcoming, and ready to help with anything. They quickly resolve any issue, provide extra water or anything else you need, and always go the extra mile to make your stay comfortable. The food is simply good. Every day there is something different, always fresh and delicious. On our last visit in September 2025, we enjoyed prosciutto daily, king prawns, regular shrimp, a variety of fresh fish, and even salmon served multiple times a week. As we were with a child, I was especially concerned about fresh and healthy options — but the hotel exceeded expectations. There were always fresh fish dishes, different types of seafood, fruits, juices, and vegetables. Everything was well-prepared, tasty, and safe even for the little one. Overall, this hotel has never disappointed us. The bar staff, restaurant team, waiters, and customer service staff all do an amazing job. We are always happy to see them, and we are always happy to return. For the price they offer, this hotel provides an unbeatable experience. We are already planning our next visit and can’t wait to come back!

I had a fantastic vacation at GMA (Grand Muthu Almirante). The room was excellent—clean, spacious, and comfortable. A special mention goes to Ana, who cleaned our room—she was amazing! The housekeeping team in general was very friendly and helpful. The food was good, and there was a wide variety, including plenty of fruits. I was hoping for more seafood options, like crab or lobster, but they did offer different kinds of fish and I saw shrimp served one day during my stay. For Canada Day, they had a lovely beach BBQ with chicken, rice, pasta, etc. The only downside was that they only provided a spoon, which made it hard to eat some of the food like pasta and chicken properly. Entertainment by the pool and in the evening was amazing. The shows and activities really added to the overall experience. We enjoyed three à la carte dinners—Indian, Italian, and Asian. The Indian night stood out the most, especially how the servers were dressed in beautiful sarees. It was a lovely touch! Drinks were okay. If you're looking for premium liquor, you'll need to head to the 6th floor bar where there’s an extra charge. One small disappointment: piña coladas were not available during the day at the pool bars or other locations. They were only served after 4 PM at one specific bar. The beach was simply fantastic—clean, warm water, and no seaweed at all. No complaints here! The pools were clean, well-maintained, and absolutely amazing. I had a great time and would definitely choose this resort again if I return to Holguin.
