Cuba is pretty beautiful with its unusual landscape – palm trees in misty swamps, yellow stone escarpments. Havana is the capital city – “Our Man in Havana” and all that. If you like old American cars this is the place to go on holiday to see pink Cadillacs and many very colorful cars. Take a look at a car park there and compare it with one in U.K. – every bright strong color under the sun compared with our dull silvers, blacks, reds and not much else. Cuban music is exciting too if you like that sort of thing. There are some unusual buildings in Havana with colonnades along the pavements. There are gardens of palm trees within some of these buildings which are rather nice.
Go to the holiday resort of Guardalavaca on Cuba for the ultimate relaxing break. There are stunning beaches, exciting diving and luxurious hotels to be enjoyed there. It is a peaceful area, situated in the Eastern province of Holguin, and is home to idyllic powdery beaches and stunning coral reefs. Guardalavaca’s warm, clear waters are home to an abundance of marine life.
On the balconies of your hotel in Guardalavaca you can relax and gaze out to golden sands and the aquamarine waters of the Atlantic. The resort offers every activity under the sun including swimming with dolphins and horse riding. You can arrange your days to be as busy or relaxing as you choose.
Although the main industry of the Guardalavaca area is tourism, it has retained an authentic Cuban feel and the spacious countryside will ensure you never feel too overcrowded.
Many visitors to Cuba choose to twin their Guardalavaca holidays with a break in Havana as well. This is the perfect way for you to experience the diverse attractions of both the east and the west of Cuba. Guardalavaca’s dazzling beaches and laid back pace is in vivid contrast to the vibrant buzz of Havana.
In the holiday resort of Varadero, there is sun and surf and so much more. Sun soaked beaches are just the beginning. If you enjoy lively music, Varadero is the place for you. If you want to see the countryside of Cuba rather than stay in Varadero resort all the time, go to Yumuri valley, 60 km from Varadero, and on to drink a Pina Colada at the Mirador. One of the best in Cuba! For those who want to experience a feeling of Cuban life outside of the resort, go for it as it is well worth it.
Have a look at the accommodation on offer and make your choice.

Charismatic Cuba
If palm trees and lots of blue water turn you on, you would do well to choose Cuba for your next holiday.
Cuba is an island nation in the Caribbean Sea. It consists of the main island of Cuba plus the Isla de la Juventad and several archipelagos. Havana, a city on the island of Cuba is the capital city of Cuba. The inhabitants, culture and customs come from diverse places such as Spain, Africa and the U.S.A. It may be an authoritarian democracy, but literacy and health have been given high priority there. Spanish is the most common language. Festivals take place at all times of the year, but January to May is the ideal time to visit temperature-wise. Restaurant meals are delicious and incredibly cheap, many dishes being of Spanish origin.
One of the best resorts is Varadero, where, if you are brave and daring you can go skydiving. You would land onto Varadero’s white sandy beach. There are also ultralite flights from the beach.
Car hire is available in the Varadero Airport or through various hotels. Take a ride in a glorious automobile, the old American way. Some hotels organize transfer buses and there is an open-topped bus to town but there are no trains. There is a large shopping mall, restaurants and an open-air market-place. Varadero is in a relatively exclusive part of Cuba, with many private hotels, fantastic beaches and Cuba’s only full golf course. So this could be an ideal choice of holiday destination if you need your golf amongst many other activities. The sea water is warm, turquoise. In fact, Varadero could be your little bit of paradise. Another fun thing, there are motorized trikes called coco taxis available for getting around. These are enclosed and appear rather like car-sized oranges. There are also horse-drawn carriages for hire for a stately ride, plus mopeds to ride throughout town. You can jump on one of these with just a learner’s license even. You will be overwhelmed by the great variety of things to see and do in Varadero, from camel riding for children to cabaret, one of the latter lasting 5 hours! Rest assured you will have a whale of a time on holiday in Varadero.
Guardalavaca is another resort well worth your consideration for a holiday in Cuba. Here too you could enjoy white sandy beaches. Guardalavaca provides the ultimate in relaxing holidays in luxurious hotels, with the excitement of diving and snorkeling to explore the coral reefs and plentiful sea life. After swimming with dolphins, you could go horse-riding. Make your holiday as hectic or lazy as you wish. For a change of scene, drive out away from the beach at Guardalavaca and you will see sugar cane plantations. The countryside is vast, but even the beaches never feel too crowded. That fact alone has to gain a point in this holiday destination’s favour. Moreover Cuba is famous for its hospitality. You would not be disappointed.

Holidays in Cuba
Cuba will always be for ever linked with Fidel Castro and cigars, but holidays in Cuba are a Cuban revelation rather than a Cuban revolution. If you're looking for character and charm, holidays in Cuba have it coming out of their ears. What's more, following massive investment in tourism by the Castro government, today's holidays in Cuba also come with all the modern comforts you would find in the Mediterranean. Not to mention the 300 days of sunshine a year and an average temperature of 25 degrees!
Cuba's resorts offer pretty much something for everyone, whether you're looking for peace and quiet or a party atmosphere. At one end of the scale are lively Varadero holidays, close to the capital Havana. On the quieter side are Guardalavaca holidays, a sleepy backwater on the north east coast. And if you're looking for all inclusive holidays to Cuba, then Playa Pesquero is the place.
A couple of decades ago, talking about cheap holidays to Cuba would probably have raised a few wry smiles. But this is now one of the best value destinations in the Caribbean. So, there's a good prospect of picking up one of those bargain getaways or late deals. Whether you do or not, you'll get a great deal for your money, including amazing tropical scenery, old colonial treasures, salsa music and, of course, the amazing sight of pre-revolutionary Cadillacs and Pontiacs gliding majestically around the city streets. Along with those famous cigars, they're all part of the unique spirit of Cuba.
