Cuba Holidays

Perhaps one of the most interesting modern destinations available, Cuba holidays had been off the menu since the revolution in 1959, before which it was a playground for rich Americans and, allegedly, Mafiosi. After the collapse of the Soviet Union left Cuba with little opportunity for export, the Cuban government tentatively reopened the resorts to European visitors. Although, if you intend to venture away from the tourist resorts, background research is essential to avoid potential problems, but if done properly, Cuba holidays in 2012 can be both culturally rewarding and tropically beautiful. Varadero holidays will show you the plush side of Cuba, with all the palm-fringed beach glory you'd expect from a Caribbean holiday, and the best nightlife outside of nearby, vivid Havana.

The best holidays in Cuba can be found in one of the many large beach front resorts like the Paradisus Rio de Oro resort and spa and the Sol Rio de Luna and Mares resort in Guardalavaca, or the Riu Varadero, all of which provide a self contained luxury break within the confines of the resort.
