A quaint blue paradise in Cayo Coco and Cayo Santa Maria
The beaches at Cayo Coco and Cayo Santa Maria are among some of the world’s dreamiest destinations. Situated right by the water and surrounded by lush palm tree forests, both of these Melia Hotels offer the ultimate getaway, bringing you closer to nature than ever before.

For those who really want to relax and get away from the hustle and bustle of modern life, Cayo Coco also offers bungalows suspended over the ocean so the soft wash of the waves can lull you to sleep far away from city life. Trips to nearby islands that lead to the unexplored cities of Ciego de Avila and Moron make for fascinating cultural adventures while inspirational options for romantic trips—also known as Romance by Melia Cuba—are truly endless.

The warm waters at this beautiful resort stand out for relaxation and thrilling family adventures like snorkeling and sailing, making for the ultimate family adventure.
Experience fascinating eco-tourism at Paradisus Río de Oro and Varadero
Paradisus Río de Oro not only has a gorgeous beach for guests to enjoy, it’s also a playground of striking parks and natural sites. Popularly known as the city of parks, it’s one of the first beaches Christopher Columbus visited upon arriving in Cuba and home to a trove of natural treasures like the Guayabo waterfall (the highest waterfall in Cuba), Mayari National Park and Guardalavaca beach. Gibara, a colourful fishing village surrounded by old walls, is a unique cultural experience to explore while you’re here, as well as a walk through Holguin’s historic city centre.
In for an exciting water adventure? Head over to the beach at Melia Varadero to sign up for scuba diving, snorkelling, and tropical deep sea fishing to dive head-first into the waters, or skid on the surface with a water bike or catamaran. Whatever you’re in the mood for, Melia offers experiences you’ll never forget.
Discover rich histories and vibrant colours in Havana
Cuba’s capital and largest city is perhaps one of the country’s most sought after destinations. Located just minutes away from Havana’s rich city centre in the business district of Miramar, Melia La Habana offers guests an unparalleled cultural experience and unique stay perfect for adventurers, partygoers and formal business trips alike.
Visit iconic sites such as the Plaza de la Catedral, an old naval dockyard and a thriving social hub for locals, Castillo De Los Tres Reyes Del Morro, an old fortress on Havana’s harbour and Fusterlandia, an extensive public art installation laced with whimsical mosaics. Or, if you prefer, simply take a walk and roam the colourful city streets, admiring the vivid pink, blue and yellow tones of surrounding buildings that make Havana one of the most breathtaking and famous travel destinations in the world.
