Hello Abe, we went this year for two weeks and just rested. Unlike all our other trips there, the only thing I wanted to do was sleep, suntan, and lay by the beach, so we chose Holguin, an all inclusive resort. There are 5-6 large restaurants that you can book at besides the buffet. I ended up eating by the beach most of the time for the seafood. They have a French restaurant, Italian, etc. The resort is quite big and the entertainment at night is good. They have a swim up bar, 24 hr bar. I would go down at 4:30- 5:00 am (the internal clock doesn't shut off) have a few great coffee's, talk to the Chefs and then walk down to the beach and watch the sun come up.
I go to Cuba for the beach, not the food.. Havana is full of tourists, plenty to see and do, if you are looking for more of a quieter time with more ocean , I would suggest Santa Maria.
We were a group of eight.
Here are some random pics I took.
They roasted a pig every other day.
There is sailing, deep sea fishing, day at another island with dolphins etc....
This is where I planted my feet and just relaxed
The old world Cuba is still very much that, old world , nice to see. You can take a trip in a taxi and go to the markets and a bus or taxi would bring you back.
I would eat at this restaurant alot , and listen to the waves.
Food was good

I would walk the beach every night
And every morning, you thank God you're alive.
