Bonjour à tous, je pars pour un 1er voyage à Cuba à la fin juillet. J'ai réservé dans un bungalow à l'hotel barcelo solymar. J'aimerais savoir si quelqu'un a déjà été dans ces bungalows?? Est-ce correct?? mon vol de retour est à 21h00 j'aimerais savoir comment cela fonctionne pour pouvoir garder ma chamv=bre plus longtemps?? Quel est aussi la température fin juillet??
Lorsque tu arriveras à l'hotel la premiere journée, tu vas mentionner à la r.ception que tu aimerais garder ta chambre pour la dernière journée, ca se peut qu'ils te disent de revenir le demande 2-3 jours avant ton départ et ils vont surement te charger des frais, habituellement moi je paies 25 À 30$ US, mais pour moi ca vaut le cout.
Bonjour Karihookie, je compte partir avec 2 autres personnes et j'aimerais savoir ce qu'il en est des bungalow. Sont t ils près de la piscine et facile d'accès et aussi bien que les chambres. Que nous conseilles tu. Trois femmes seules risque-t-elles de s'ennuyer le soir? Ya t il une belle atmosphère et une discothèque le fun? Nous devons partir début octobre j'attends de tes nouvelles!
Personnellement, je voulais les bungalows avant d'y aller. Mais sur place je préférais les chambres. Je trouve qu'en dessous des portes des bungalows su 1 er étages (il y a deux étages) il y a un assez grande espace donc les insectes et les lézards peuvent facilement y entrer. J'avais réserver un bungalow et sur place ils nous ont changé dans une chambre comme tous ceux qui avaient réservé un bungalow. Au début nous étions très déçu mais par la suite nous avons parlé à un couple qui était dans un bungalow, il disait avoir plein de coquerelle et de bibitte, donc j'étais très contente d'avoir une chambre au 3e étage!!!!
Pour ce qui est de la discothèque, et bien c'est une petite salle ou il y a des spectacles de 10h00 à 11h00 et ensuite il y a la discothèque mais je n'y suis jamais allé pour danser. Sincérement la salle sent toujours un peu le vomi lolllll!!!!!!
Je ne pense pas que 3 femmes peuvent s, ennuyer, il y a un petit bar autour de la piscine avec des musiciens, il y a un bar dans l'hôtel et je suis certaine que vous aller faire des belles rencontres ( si vous êtes célibataires, les G.O aiment bien cela lol!!!).
Si tu as d'autres questions n'hésitent pas cela me fera plaisir!!
j aimerais savoir si varadero est vraiment aussi spétaculaire qu'on ne le dit et si l hôtel propose de bonne activités
merci d avance de me réponse rapidement car je partirais le 30/08/04 et j aimerais savoir avant de partir pour que je puisse être rassurer, j ailu t ancien messages et j ai vue qu'il etait préférable d'être en étage
La plage à Varadero est vraiment extraordinaire, en tout cas celle de l'hôtel Barcelo Solymar est vraiment la plus grande et la plus large. L'eau est vraiment belle et le sable aussi. L'hôtel n'offre pas beaucoup d'animation et d'activités, quelques fois sur l'heure du midi il y a des cours de danse mais à part ça je n, ai pas vu d'autres animation. Sur la plage tu peux parcontre louer toutes sortes de bateau gratuitement (bateau banane, kayak, canot, pédalo etc.)
Je crois en effet que c'est préférable dans l'hotel que dans les bungalow en ce qui concerne les insectes!!!
I’m planning to go to an all-inclusive resort next April. I know it’s the start of sargassum season, but I was wondering if it really affects swimming. Do hotels clean the beach? Is it still possible to swim?
I’d like to book an all-inclusive trip next April. My criteria: 1) no sargassum, 2) 4 stars or higher, 3) ability to snorkel right from the hotel beach, and 4) safe.
Hey, I’d like to know which hotel in the south doesn’t force you to wake up at 4 AM just to reserve a shady chair, whether it’s at the beach or the pool.
Hi,
For my husband's 50th birthday, we're going to Mombasa for 10 days and 8 nights in March 2026.
I found a hotel, the Kappa Club Crystal Bay Resort, and online reviews for this hotel recommend a guide named Omar. I contacted him via WhatsApp, and he's offering a 2-day, 1-night safari in Tsavo East, a "blue safari," and a Marafa Canyon day trip for 400 € per person.
I’m asking for help from people who’ve already done these excursions because I have no idea what these offers entail.
Thank you for any advice you can give me about this trip.

Hi everyone, I’m writing here because I’m really torn—I want to go on a trip. A vacation? 10 to 12 days, maybe 14 days. Starting March 14th. I’m in a wheelchair but completely independent. I was thinking of going to Martinique, but apparently, the hotels aren’t all-inclusive, which might be a hassle. If you have any advice, that’d be great. Otherwise, I was considering Mexico—a long-time dream. At an all-inclusive hotel with accessibility on one level (since I’m independent but in a wheelchair). Do you know of any nice, budget-friendly hotels with activities in Mexico? Or Zanzibar is also an option for me, same idea.
Thanks in advance for your help! If you have any tips, that would be amazing so I can finally make up my mind and plan my trip without too much stress. I’m looking ahead so I have plenty of time. Feel free to ask questions if you’d like. Thanks for your feedback, have a great evening!
Hi everyone,
happy to be back on this site.
I’m tired of spending hours and hours searching for all-inclusive hotels for my first trip to Mexico to celebrate our 30th wedding anniversary.
Can anyone recommend 5 or 6 hotel names that meet the following criteria? (I’m not too picky, lol)
1. All-inclusive
2. Adults-only
3. Beautiful beach and pool
4. Hotel for relaxing (no "factory hotels")
5. One-week stay in February 2026
6. A nice hotel (3 or 4 stars) but no need for an ultra-palace
Oh, and I almost forgot the main thing 😉: budget between 3500 € and 4000 € for two, including flights from Montreal-Mexico-Montreal.
Thanks to all of you for your recommendations!

I’m looking into November (first, will it be warm enough for snorkeling in Sharm El Sheikh?) and especially for feedback on hotels. I’ve read that the clientele is mostly Italian or Russian. Are there any French-speaking hotels—or at least mixed ones?
We’re a retired couple and are looking for a hotel around 1,000 € per week.
We’ll be in Cairo beforehand and will take a domestic flight.
Thanks in advance.
We’re thinking of booking an "all-inclusive" trip so we don’t have to worry too much... for a week at the beginning of next September, but we’re torn between several destinations: Crete? Cyprus? Sicily? Sardinia? The only thing we’re really looking for is sunshine. Thanks in advance for any tips you can share!
Hi there,
I’m planning a stay at the Sian Kan in the Riviera Maya and was wondering if anyone’s been there recently. If so, are the location, welcome, services, and food still as excellent as they used to be? I’ve heard that since the train between Cancun and Tulum was built, things might have gone downhill.
Thanks for your feedback!

Hi there, I’m a 43-year-old woman planning to travel solo in early March. I’m not really into "commercial resorts," but if I find a place that fits my criteria, I might be interested. To add to the info in the title, I’m open to various activities, but ideally, it’d include snorkeling, hiking, dance (every evening if possible!), group tours, etc. I’d love to meet people (not necessarily a man—just people in general!). I’m not necessarily aiming for the cheapest resort, but since it’s spring break week and everything’s already pricier, 5-star options are probably out of the question. Thanks!
Hello!
What a pleasure to be back on Voyage Forum!
We’ll be in Venice from March 20th to 24th, and I’m looking (for two couples) for a hotel close to St. Mark’s Square—my husband can’t walk long distances. For four nights with breakfast, our budget is around 1,400 € per couple. To avoid too much walking for him, I’d also prefer a hotel where we could potentially eat dinner in the evenings.
If anyone has any recommendations, thank you in advance to those who reply!
We’re planning a week-long trip to Iceland to see the Northern Lights.
We’re looking at staying from March 22nd to 30th: will we still be able to see the Northern Lights, or is it too late in the season?
We found a deal on Voyage Privé that seems like a good price, with a hotel in Reykjavik. If we rent a car, are there any interesting sites we can visit during the day, since we’re tied to returning to Reykjavik every night—or else we’d lose our nights at the hotel!
Hi,
I was planning a trip to Hurghada at the end of March, but it's the end of Ramadan.
Some people are telling me I should avoid it.
What do you think?
Thanks
Hi
I can’t manage to get in touch directly with one of the hotels in Prachuap...
like Prachuap Grand Hotel or Prachuap Beach Hotel...
has anyone been there recently?
or have any info?
Thanks everyone...
Hi there,
We’re heading to Argentina and Chile in February 2025. I’d love to know if it’s recommended to book accommodations (hotels, guesthouses, etc.) in advance, especially in Patagonia? Thanks for your tips!
Hi everyone,
I’d like to book 2 nights at a camp inside Etosha (Halali).
However, online, I’ve found two sites for making this reservation:
The first is the Etosha National Park site: https://etoshanationalpark.co.za
You can’t pay online there—you just submit a reservation request (enquiry).
The second is the NWR (Namibia Wildlife Resorts) site: https://www.nwr.com.na, where you *can* pay online.
Is the latter one reliable?
Thanks so much for your tips!
