I love to vacation and share all my adventures. I definitely enjoy sharing pictures & videos of my destinations. My experiences are always interesting.
Great video! Very detailed and well explained. I found an amazing deal for this resort with Sunwing all inclusive from Montreal for only C$645 -seven days. I am about to book but I’m wondering why it’s so cheap. I understand the food in Cuba is not that great. I can see in your video food seemed pretty repetitive and limited but I am not too picky. How was the noise level at this hotel? What about mosquitoes? Is the WiFi good? I read on the reviews that many families and kids would go over to the sanctuary side so there was a lack of enforcement from staff about the exclusive sides. I want to book the adult side to be away from noise and kids. Did you guys stay on the sanctuary side? And what was your experience like? again thank you for this wonderful video. I love how detail oriented you are.😊😊
@Busybeeee We stayed on the Sanctuary side. When we were there were zero kids on the sanctuary side. The wifi was strong. Our room was located near the disco. Was a little loud in the later evening. We loved the location and didn't want to move. Bring snacks and food. Easy travel things. I'd suggest wraps, some canned meat, and condiments for sure.
Wow! This is really impressive and inspirational! God bless your kind and generous soul☺️I was in Cuba in 2022 and speaking to some of the staff at my resort, I realized how little they had and how desperate they were. I am thinking about going back to Cuba in September and this time I want to bring a suitcase of gift. I considered just bringing money, but then I thought that some of our items are not available in Cuba and they would be more than happy to have them. Thank you for this great video they brought me much inspiration, and great ideas.😊😊
No coffee shortages when we were there last month. I honestly didn't even notice the coffee maker in the room. I got mine at the Sannctuary coffee shop daily (beside the Sanctuary reception).
We were at Sanctuary in April 2024 (about 3 weeks ago). I have not been to Tryp. I am always looking to try lots of different resorts. We try to travel 1-2x a year, if possible.
Hello Thank you for the video of what the Sanctuary at Grand memories looks like . We are planning our first trip to this resort and on the Sanctuary side as well. Your video was very informative . Would it be possible to post a video showing what the room looks like and the view from the room as well on the sanctuary side . Thanks again for a great video !
Hi Melanie 👋 You're showing us really nice resorts in countries we've never seen or visited before, so your channel is a total joy to discover. We've left our likes👍and our Subscribe ✔ and excited to see where "Viva La Vacation takes us next 😃
Its always a joy to discover a new channel featuring destinations that we don't know anything about. And your video has certainly highlighted some wonderful features of this quite wonderful place 🌴😎
Hi. Can you tell me about the rooms. They is nothing in video about rooms. Thinking of going here but about about rooms and views from rooms. From Canada. Thanks
Our room had a view of the pool, was clean and everything worked fine. As in all resorts in the tropical climate, there are rooms that have a musty smell. Was there something in particular you were wondering about?
Nespresso. The original style nespresso pods. Normally I would encourage everyone to try Cuban coffee. I find it immensely satisfying. However, with the supply shortages I now encourage bringing a pack of Nespresso pods (or 2). For those coffee lovers, better safe than sorry! Coffee can be a very important start to a good day!
I do have one tip, don't stay in the resorts, go out, so you can see the situation of the Cuban people, who are being victimized by a dictatorship supported by tourists like this.
This was January 24-31, 2024. Mosquitoes and no seeums didn't affect us. I did have one bite on my ankle at the end of the trip. We only made one show and we enjoyed it. We are very early risers. After a long day of sun and drinks, we found it hard to stay awake.
Beach bar to chairs would be maybe 2 minutes to the closest chairs. There is only little pieces of fried fish in cups at the beach. No other food at the beach. The SeaSky restaurant is the closest, open 1-3 for lunch. Otherwise over to the snack bar.
