The Iberostar Taínos Hotel puts you right on the white sides of Varadero Beach, which offers an incredible 14 miles (22 km). This is one of the most famously attractive beaches in Cuba, and the town itself has a long history as a vacation hotspot of Cuba’s glitterati.

Go diving around Coral Beach for a chance to see the sparkling water that makes the Caribbean such an incredible place to see marine wildlife. Tours of the area introduce visitors to beautiful historical mansions. You can also make a trip to see the mysterious and cavernous interiors of the Saturn Caves — guides will show you to a serene subterranean swimming pool. If you’re looking for more ways to enjoy the scenery, consider making a visit to the Varadero golf course.

Iberostar offers 272 rooms and 17 two-floor bungalows — all are bright, fresh, and airy. You’ll find family rooms that make the spacious accommodations feel even more inviting. Also, they all come balconies so you’ll have your own little piece of the view.

All of the accommodations have air conditioning. If you feel like some refreshment, help yourself to the minibar or the coffee maker, and store your snacks and other drinks in the room’s mini fridge. Rooms also have satellite television and telephones. Private bathrooms come with full bathtubs and hair dryers. When you leave for the day, you can store your valuables in the safety deposit box.

There’s a convenient fitness center on Iberostar’s grounds as well as a pool. Adults can get pampering at the on-site spa and children can visit the kids’ entertainment center. In the evening, you might visit the stage to see a live performance put on by the hotel.

The on-site Cuban and Asian restaurants have dining rooms evoke the colorful tropical surroundings — ask the staff about reserving a table. Every morning, you can sidle up to the breakfast buffet. At the lobby bar, you’ll have an incredible view of the Caribbean ocean. There’s a second bar right next to the pool.
