As for the main features of the beaches of Havana, they are as follows:
The vast majority of Havana beaches have the necessary amenities, such as sun loungers, umbrellas, beach cafes, showers and toilets.
The staff at this beach resort are absolutely delightful and the location is truly unbeatable. The pool is fantastic and the beach, though small, is still quite lovely. The cleanliness of the resort is impeccable. However, the food leaves much to be desired and there are some issues with plumbing and water. Additionally, there is an occasional unpleasant odor from an oil rig when the wind is not in our favor. Despite these challenges, this resort is the closest to Havana in the Playa del Estes area. It is my sincerest hope that they are able to overcome these obstacles and continue to provide a wonderful experience for their guests.
This beach would be absolutely stunning if people took the time to clean up after themselves and properly dispose of their garbage. Alternatively, we could hope for a hurricane to come and refresh the area. 🙄
The beach is exclusively for military personnel, individuals associated with dictators, and those who sympathize with the regime.
Looking for a spot to soak up some rays and splash around in the waves? Look no further than this beach - a prime location for seaside shenanigans with loved ones.

This stunning beach boasts pristine sandy shores and breathtaking vistas. For a small fee of 700 Cuban pesos per person, you can relax in comfort on sunbeds while enjoying delectable food served right to your spot. If you're feeling adventurous, you can also rent a pedal bike, banana boat, or sailboat ride for around 300 Cuban pesos. The temperature in January is a balmy 30°C, with temperatures rising to a scorching 40-50°C in August. I highly recommend this beach, located just a stone's throw away from Varadero. Let's keep this beach beautiful by not leaving any litter behind - it was spotless during my last visit ❤🇨🇺☀️.
