Loma del Capiro

Reviewed By mefistome - Toronto, Canada

This small mountain – about 200 meters at its highest point – gained notoriety during and after the Cuban Revolution for it was the headquarters of Comandante Che Guevara armed forces. The smallest peak holds the name of Capiro and next to it are the twin peaks known as Dos Hermanas (Two sisters). A monument commemorating the battle was placed at the top of the smallest peak; it sits on a green marble base that symbolizes the unity of the Cuban nation; the trenches dug during the battle for control of the city of Santa Clara can be seen around the monument and form part of it. It was declared National Historic Site in 1990 along with that of the derailment of the armoured train (El tren Blindado). The natural surroundings house a plantation of Tamarind, the natural tree of Santa Clara, also helps to contain the erosion of the slopes. A great way to exercise climbing up to the top of the hill, my advice it;s less challenging to walk on the grass than the steps. There’s a 360* degrees beautiful view of the city, the huge baseball Stadium down below and not to mis the sunset. Be sure to wear comfortable shoes, carry mosquitoes repellent, especially late in the afternoon and wear dark clothes.

Cayo Santa Maria

Reviewed By eyesofblue44 - Hensall, Canada

I just returned from my 5th stay at Ocean Casa Del Mar in the breath-takingly Beautiful Cayo Santa Maria. Top notch service was provided by my butler Arley. He was always there to help with any request. In the Buffet Leo, Leidy & Willan were awesome. I also enjoyed the food in the Privilege Restaurant as well as the Blue Moon A La Carte. The best part of my vacation was enjoying the Animation team led by Big Dani. The entire team is good, but it is Dani who has the most ambition and really puts the most effort into seeing that you enjoy your stay. He engages with everyone and his smile and spirit is infectious. Ocean Casa is very lucky to have such highly respected workers as Dani who really seem to care about their job and all hotel guests.

Santa Maria Beach

Reviewed By eloud - Montreal, Canada

The beach at Cayo Santa Maria is awesome, it stretches for Kilometers where all the resorts are located, so the beach is similar at all places and its shared so you can walk along the beach through all the resorts. The best beach section though is the one located at the bay behind the sercotel Resort, its your dreams beach.

Playa de las Gaviotas

Reviewed By vul999 - Toronto, Canada

Look pass the 4 cuc admission fee and the 10 mins walk through the forest and you will be rewarded with an amazing feeling of walking onto a piece of paradise. The beach is truly a natural oasis. The sand bars create natural pools and the gentle lapping waves make it an ideal place for kids to play. Bring your water/snacks but leave only your foot prints and take away memories and pictures only. Let's pray they don't develop this spot. In my opinion its much better than playa pilar by a long shot.
