Varadero Awaits You

Varadero is the Caribbean beach of your dreams. With 20 kilometres of fine white sand, its palm trees caressed by cool trade winds, Varadero is considered the premier destination for sun and surf on this, the biggest island in the Greater Antilles.

Located in the western Province of Matanzas about 120 km east of Havana, Varadero is also known for its hospitality, its rich culture and the comfortable and world class hotels and resorts.

This is one of the top vacation destinations for Canadians for good reason. Everything can be found here from the most exclusive resorts with private pools and your very own butler to the best value all-inclusive packages in the entire Caribbean.

Canadians are not alone in choosing Varadero. Tourists from Germany, Great Britain, Italy, Spain and France fill the hotels and resorts and provide the feeling of a festive Old World cultural exchange. Varadero is also seeing visitors from Asia, including Japan, China and Korea. While the numbers are currently small, the market is continually growing.

There are more than 50 hotels and resorts in Varadero providing 15,000 rooms for visitors. Managed and operated by prestigious international hotel chains, there is the right place for every kind of client.

Several hotels have gone through complete renovations this year including the Paradiso, Punta Arena, Brisas del Caribe, and Iberostar Bella Costa. Others like the Melia Varadero, Melia America and Tuxpan have partial renovations.

Among the new facilities opened for tourism are the five star plus Iberostar Varadero, inaugurated in December with the Spanish Iberostar hotel chain, and the Blau Varadero with its innovative architecture and 340 rooms
