thanks for watching
Mike and Jenny
My friend, when you do that, you create a connection with the hotel workers that the moment comes when they welcome you like family and the treatment is special.
I love the Cuban People, they are very welcoming and warm!!!
1000% agree! We have been to Cuba 7 times and only repeated this one. Our favorite and the best beach we have been to. Building 2 is our favorite and we did the diamond club once and opted out the second time. Didn't matter to us. Great videos guys! Love your channel
Thanks so
much Angela
I appreciate it
Mike
keep up the great reviews on Cuba. Appreciate it.
Glad you like them!
Working On more
Mike
Yes my friend, it is Paella and it is exquisite, and even more so when eaten on the beach
It really is!
I stayed there a few yrs ago. Loved it. Amazing video
Another great video! Love what you do, especially for the animals. I always bring things for the resort team but never really thought of the animals.
awesome friend, great job 💪🏻
Jimmy should have shares in the place after visiting 40 times !! LOL. I stayed in this resort 3 years ago, I thought it was paradise. It's been my favorite beach as well. The sun, sand, and sea is just visually jaw dropping to me. But then again I've never come across a bad beach in Cuba. I love them all! I would snorkel for hours. It's like another world down there, just magnificent ! That's my favorite place to spend the day. Definitely a water baby. I did always see local stray animals in the resorts I've stayed in also. I'd always sneak a piece of fish or shrimp for the kitties after my dinner. Breaks my heart that their not taken care of. But other than that it's like heaven on earth to me!!
Great Video! As much as many of the walkthrough videos can be helpful I truly appreciate the narration and general opinions! Thanks!! Trying to find a place for spring break with the family-2023
Great video! Love the tour and tips. Keep them coming!
Thanks Tim
Thanks for your support!!!
Awesome work. Thank you for your help❤❤

@Finding-Fish I'm just leaving Iberostar Selection Varadero for the second time. Been to Holguin twice this past year as well ♥️
Going tomorrow, You and your wife have a kind heart. After watching your video I am going to bring something for the Cuban people too. We are so blessed here in Canada.
thank you please subscribe it really helps our channel and tell Armando i say hello
I’ve been to this resort, loved it! The beach is paradise!
The best!
We just booked for a week during Christmas break. My mother, who is planning this whole family trip, actually found your video and forwarded it to me to get a glimpse of what to expect. I can't wait to hit up Flamenco to do my own video. Looks very photogenic which I am totally into. You mentioned hearing birds during your morning coffee run, care to elaborate on what birds are there? That's 1 photo subject I've been fascinated with.
OMG!! Jimmy Poon!! you met the legend :) LOVE the beach there
Jimmy!!!!
Absolutely beautiful people you both are!!!! God bless you and thank you for the references 100%
Thank you!
Thank you for this great review! We (9 of us) are heading to this resort for Christmas! ❤❤
Amazing I’m heading there in 2weeks to do an update video
Hey Mike and Jennie! We were having trouble deciding where to go for our vacation, but your videos were a huge help. Thank you so much! We also subscribed to your UA-cam channel.
We are here right now
Making a new video of Caribe
It will be out Saturday
Caribe is Beautiful right now
Great job!
Thank you! Cheers!
Great video. I’ll be there in October. Can’t wait
You’ll love it
Sign our book!!!
In the cigar bar
Sure will!!!
Really great video 🥰👌to be honest I don’t know what was more relaxing , the views of this beautiful resort or your Soothing naration! I went to my first Cuba all inclusive this past March(Melia Cayo Coco) and I fell in love. The beaches are the best in the world …the people are incredibly kind and humble,the water is clean and drinkable and for me the food was wholesome and healthy ! The last part you included in your video warmed my heart. Many returning guests at the Melia do the same. Cuba does not have what we have and the next time I go back I will bring a suitcase full of gifts ☺️
Thank you so much!
Loved the video. We have a lot in common. My husband and I have been at this resort and absolutely loved it. We also bring LOTS of supplies to give. We love helping and they are so very grateful. We are currently collecting for our next trip. Tammy and Marc Niles from Canada
That’s Amazing Tammy!!!
We love to hear it. Enjoy your trip and Tell Armando “Mandy” in the Cigar Bar located near the Stairs to the Ocean I said Hello
My mom and I are headed down to this resort in a few days. How do you give out all the goodies? How are you choosing who to gift to?
@@FlauraBelle Hi Laura, that's very exciting! We waited a few days to get to know the staff because you'll notice that if you give it the first few days you'll regret it because you meet more people you wished you would have had something to give 😉
Don't forget the gardeners and the lifeguard, they love sunglasses, baseball caps and long tight sleeves.
And if you can, bring Butler white gloves. They'll be so grateful. PS. Always look for the beauty in everything before the negative ✨️ Enjoy the quality time with your mother 🌞
It was nice meeting you at Memories Flamenco last week Mike, We subscribed, as promised, and shared to friends. Keep your videos going - very informative.
Btw the Reef is 23 in the world.
Great place to scuba dive
Did you end up going out there?
thanks for subscribing
@@Finding-Fish Yes, We had a little chat with you Mike. Not sure if you remember us (Al and Linda) we met by the CUBA sign and we talked a bit. It was our 8th visit at MF. Great videos btw. I subscribed and am enjoying your videos.
in addition the Reef in Cuba is 1046 km long compared to the Australia that is 3000km in lenght (info from the book "The Coral Reef" by Angelo Mojetta on page 13 for your fact check!
Enjoyed this so much! Thanks for covering from check in to check out, with all the extra little tips and providing answers to some of the most common questions. I will sign your book in September! Thanks again!
Thanks for watching and your kind words
Thank You
Thanks!!
we just booked this place for January. Cant wait for it
Tell Armando in the Cigar Bar
Mikie sent you!!!!
Enjoy
Thank you so much for sharing your experience ., I already decided where I am going for my vacation NeXT month and I choose to go to cuba and stay in the memories flamenco beach resort . Im super excited.
Awesome
I’m going to Cuba in January! I’m going to look into how to help some animals.
thank you for all your great reviews! We are going in March.
Have fun!!!
Mike
Thanks for this. It really helped us decide what resort to go to. We are heading there the last week of February 😃
Have fun
Remember Cuba has ebs and flows so just prepare for it!!!
If you need certain items bring them
I’m currently in Thailand making videos
You guys are my kind of people. You stay away from big crowds. Love the beach, and Canadian!!
💕💕💕
😂😂😂 🤮 🤮 🤮
Exelente video saludos desde cuba ,soy Alturo el PESCADOR que conosistes en memoris flamenco el pasado mes me gusto muco el documental y espero pronto su visita por aca .
Thank you for your review. We are going to Memories Flamenco end of January 2024. One of us will be celebrating a birthday at Memories Flamenco! We booked with diamond club. Last year we went to Grand Memories Varadero. They lost money during Covid so we had a good experience there but wanted to try Cayo Coco instead.
Incredible video, worth the watch!!
Thanks Charles
You have the same habit as us, my wife and I, the first thing we do in the morning is drink coffee
Is that Right!!!!
Morning coffee is a great morning habit
Mann I envy you guys, saw a deal for 565 for a week! Lol cheaper than groceries for a week in the GTA!
Absolutely crazy deal
I went here in june.. I still miss it
Thank you for the great video! Are there Bali beds in diamond part of the beach or those are gone? Could not see in the video and for some reason can't find this information anywhere:). Thanks again! Always enjoy to watch you guys and share your love for Cuba!
yes the Bali bed are Diamond Club
thanks for watching
I'M in Antiqua right now make some videos!!!!
It felt for me like "Pearl Harbour" the first time when one morning those planes started flying above without any warning at all 😂.
Lol!!!
Too funny 😂 totally agree
does this place have a disco cause I will be on a group trip from Feb. 1-8th and many of us love to go dancing by the way we are doing the Diamond package. Thanks for sharing your awesome video
I think so, also the market down the street has a disco ( all the resorts send guess to) like $10 for transportation plus drinks
Subscribed! Thanks so much for the in depth video. We’re looking to head there in 2 weeks time. I’m wondering for the beach huts for food, were those reserved for diamond members exclusively? I’m hoping that’s not the case but figured I’d check!
Thanks so much, we’re really looking forward to being able to travel back to Cuba again! Also looking forward to more of your resort reviews ☺️
I’ll be there first week of December making an update video of the resort and checking out the food.
You don’t need to reserve the hut’s, it’s low season so it should be slower less people
im also wondering the same- if that food on the beach is only for diamond club
I’m here right now making a video
Should be out in 2-3 weeks
There are lots of guys and you don’t have to reserve them
No there are 2 beach food huts
One Diamond one everyone
@@Finding-Fishdo they also make that nice fish at the hut for everyone?
Oh lordy - I can't believe you were up early to get that buzzing airplane!
Such a beautiful place! Thanks for post this video!!
Lol
3 days in a row
@@Finding-Fish we weren't sure what was happening on the first morning it went over 🤣
Hahahaha- yes it is loud and low!!
Thank you for review! Going to this hotel in few weeks and this will be the first time in Cuba. Very exited but also confused by some comments… I hope we didn’t make a mistake to choose this place for vocation with kids
You will have a great time!!!
Totally kids friendly
25 min for the airport.
Best kid friendly resort I believe in Cayo Coco
Please subscribe and follow us.
We will be done a lot more resorts all over Cuba this year
@@Finding-Fishthank you so much! 😊
We head there soon
Amazing
Tell Armando I said hello and sign the book please
Amazing 🤩
Jimmy is a beast
Wonderful review it helped us a lot to prepare for the vacation last week. Nice meeting you in the airport. Looking forward to your next video .. Best wishes

Gotta love the Cats!!!!

Vids out soon
we need more of jimmy
Hi Jimmy , i ve tried to contact the Hotel on their main page om Facebook , but no answer , do you know who i can write to for some requests before i go ??
Your videos are Amazinggggg !!!!!
Myself, my husband and our 1.5 year old daughter are hoping to stay here in April.
Thanks for the great review of the resort. Do you have any info on the food for someone with a dietary restriction?
I have to eat gluten free and I'm worried there won't be many options available in Cuba.
I've tried contacting the resort by phone and email but no luck with a reply. Any info would be helpful :)
Thanks so much!
Definitely watch all my Cuba videos especially the buffet food videos
It will show you what they have!!!
Cuba as you know suffering from ups and downs when it comes to food and certain items!!!
Please be aware of that!!!
And take certain items you may need!!!!!
I don’t have information when contacting the resort sorry
Mike
We're planning a family vacation next March. There will be 6 of us including my 2 grandkids. My wife & I have been to Cuba twice and they have the best beaches. Never been to this resort but it looks like we will be booking this one for March. I was told that they take Canadian for tips. Last time we were there they took US. Can you confirm this? BTW great video.
So,how was your vacation?
Hi there, what’s the deal with the diamond club? Does that require an additional charge? Just wondering
Great channel!! Is there a bus from Cayo Coca to Santa Maria? Or is taxi an only option?
I don’t know John!!!
There might be but it could be a very long drive
I’ve watched several resort videos and yours tops the list for information and giving a great feel for the resort. Unfortunately like all the others I’ve watched it’s not very detailed on the cigar bar some videos don’t even mention if they have one.
The Cuban cigar experience is one of the main thing I look for in a resort as I’m sure many others do. Where was the cigar bar you briefly mentioned located? Is there a wide selection of cigars ? What is decore like?
Thanks for your great video.
i'm heading to Flamenco in 3 weeks to do a video and will try and incorporate it into the video, if you have any other suggestions let me know
Ironically I should be there at the same time, I’d like to unwind from the flight at the cigar bar. What are the hours and how do I get there? Thanks Mike
It’s located in between buildings 2 and the snack bar
On the way to the beach
You can miss it
Last time I was in Cuba stayed at Playa Coco next to Caribe. Cigar bar was stupendous with top notch selection of Cuban cigars in a very inviting atmosphere. They even had a tour bus go through specifically bringing people into the cigar bar for a cigar experience ! Looking forward to Flamenco nov29-dec6
@@Finding-FishMy advice, stop showing your wife's ugly ass all the time plz!!! Its old and saggy 😂😂😂😂
We just come back from the resort 2 weeks ago, our room smells mold and we find Cockroach in one of the crepe at the buffet breakfast.
Okay!!!!
And?
looks amazing! I’m heading there in January, definitely looks like diamond club is worth it. Have you ever had an issue with sand fleas there?
Just the 🦟 misquotes
Any issues with sand fleas?
Hello, not long ago Cuba was our number 1 destination than we completely stop about 6 years now. Recently been thinking again and wish to take our 10 yr old Grand daughter there. We will be travelling with her without her parents. As it’s been a few years now, wondering if you could recommend in Cayo coco or Santa Maria that’s kid friendly and calm beach. Been to Cayo coco, Cayo Santa Maria, Holguín, Varadero and Cienfuegos several times. Are the beaches still the same as it’s been hit several times by the hurricane? The price you mentioned were that those times we travelled there. Would appreciate your recommendations. Have stayed in pariaso, gran memories, starfish, arenas Blanca’s and Flamenco. All the beaches were spectacular. Thanks🇨🇦❤️
Thanks for watching!!!!
I just made a video of Grand Muthu (family) resort walk through!!!
I Also love Flamenco,
I was there last Friday!!!!
For a walk through!!! Flower and the resort is starting to come back to life after COVID!!! The beach also looked beautiful. Only a 20 minute drive from Airport and for the money I think it’s the best value
great video...thank you.
Is the diamond restaurant wheelchair accessible?
I will find out today
I’m here right now
@@Finding-Fish Vous etes probablement trop occupé...merci quand meme
Yes it is
Great video. What is the diamond club and how to get it thank you. 🇨🇦
Diamond club just gives you additional food advantages and areas on the beach!!!
You can purchase it when booking your trip
The food at beach is only for diamond club? Or everyone?
wow this sounds like the best spot for lunch every day
Which is better, Flemenco or Carib? Great reviews!
Hey there
I will say this
Going forward I will give all details to subscribers.
If your not subscribed I will say this
Caribe is awesome for Adults only and for people that want a small resort feel.
Flamenco is awesome for people who like space and a bigg beach
I like both and will go to both 😊
Bro. Me and my wife gotta meet up with u guys. 2 champagnes and coffees for breaky. My style. Thinking on going to Flaminco. Jan
OMG hilarious!!!!!
CUBA IS CHEAP RIGHT NOW,
FLAMINCO IS CHEAP, HAS a few issues but if your good with the ups and downs, life is good!!!!
MIKE
Love your Videos, planning to be at the Falmenco in September, Quick question, is WiFi Available?
Yes Wifi will be in the lobby
I will be there in September as well
Making a few new videos
Love your video's! So if you had a choice, what hotel and location is your top 2 or 3? Im looking for a really nice pool and beach. :)
For Top Pools
The Gan Muthu!!!
Not so good beach!!!
My top resort is the Encsenochas in Santa Maria
Great value for money
@@Finding-Fish Thx again.
When you quoting prices, you’re quoting on Canadian dollars right. I’m assuming you’re Canadian. I’m a Winnipegger now living in Ottawa.
hey for the courts like basketball and tennis, do they provide the equipment like the balls and racquets?
Hey manav, great question!!! i'm going probably say no
Hi great video. I'm booking on Monday for a October trip. Question did you use Cad$ or did you convert to Cubian$ for tips and buying souvenirs?
I just use Canada when possible!!!
They will explain it on the bus ride to the resort!!!
I will be in Cuba on Sunday
Doing a hotel review of Memories Caribe !!!
Thanks for your support
@findingfish is Canadian preffered over USD?
Will go to Cuba this year and would like to donate as you do. How do you distribute your donations? Also are there any problems at the Cuban airport bringing food in? Looks like you had a large variety of stuff
There could be problems I would google it!!!
I bought a lot during COVID and after when they didn’t mind!!!!
But check the Cuba Site and check the list there
I really enjoy watching your videos! I have a question is the ice safe to drink at this resort? I booked here for later this year and that is my only concern
i do believe so!!!!!
i have never had a problem with the Bottled water or ice, or ice in my ice coffee or my ice in my rum and coke!!!!
but i will be Cuba soon and will ask the manger of the resort if it is truly filtered (i believe it is)
@@Finding-Fish Thank you so much! This is honestly so helpful. Enjoy your upcoming trip ☺
Hi had a couple questions
The clip your showing with the seafood at the beach, is this only on diamond club side or regular .
Does this resort offer a pool swim up bar
Does this resort offer a mini disco
Look forward to hearing from you
Yes sir
Only Diamond club members
The beach food was Diamond club
The resort has a swim up pool bar and Barbecue area
And I believe it has a small disco 💃🏿
Hi, we are planning on going to memories flamanco July 3-10th. Reading a lot of reviews about bugs being unbearably bad. How did you find the bugs in the summer?
They are not unbearable!!! They can be bad at 6:30 in the morning for an hour or so!!!
Bring quality bug spray
And have fun!!! Flamenco is doing some renovations!!! But the beach will be beautiful
How would you compare Memories Caribe vs Memories Flamenco Beach?
Grateful for your help as a Canadian 😊
Same beach...caribe is more relax(less boom boom) if staying a caribe turn left on the beach and you can walk for miles. Turn right, walk 30 minutes and you discover a huge sandbar(low tide)
I went to Memories Caribe and this beach looks just like the Caribe's beach, Caribe is for +16years of age and Flamenco is family resort with kids. This time going to Flamenco with the whole family. Thanks to this channel for give us the whole picture of what to expect there.👍🏽
Hi there, Thanks for the great video.
I am planning on a trip to Cayo coco with my kid and my family ( 3 years old ) next month and I just don't know which resort is better
which one is the best from your perspective? Right now I am comparing Melia Jardines del Rey VS Memories Flamenco.
if there is any other resort that you feel is good please do share.
Thanks!
I think hands down would be Flamenco!!! Great pools, kids pool, lots of food choices and probably cheaper!!!
I think it’s the best value for money in Cayo Coco
Thank you Sir!!! That are very helpful! Thank you for getting back to me!!
Yes I did notice Melia are much pricy compare to the Flamenco.
How would you compare Flamenco with Pullman and Grand Muthu Cayo Guillermo?@@Finding-Fish
Can you book the Diamond club with kids? Is the restaurant you ordered the omlet a section of the buffet ?
yup you can book Diamond Club with the kids. and The Omlet, yes i believe it was the Main Buffet!
have fun
@@Finding-Fish thank you for the reply. This is my first time back to Cuba since covid and I’ve been over 30 times over the past 13 years and so undecided where to go I just know I want to go to Cayo Coco but there isn’t a lot of options with kids unfortunately. You should check grand mutha I keep looking at that one to but seeing sooo many bad reviews for all of them. But I do no cuba and I no they have shortages but my love for the beaches and people is what brings me back the reviews always make me confused tho especially since Covid.
We are going in a few days. Who do you give the humanitarian packages to? We have heard mixed things and want to be sure we do it right. Do you just give them to anybody or ask if they need anything before giving?
the gardeners are usually people that could use it the most and they great guys and have families
have fun
I’m going here in October! I just had a question we booked a diamond club room does that mean we get the diamond club amenities!? Thanks
Yes you get everything Diamond Club Offers,
Beach Are, beach area food
And bar, Diamond Club Breakfast lunch and Dinner private dining
You’re the best thanks for the help!
Do you purchase the diamond club prior to arriving? If not, what is the cost?
always purchase before
you'll have to ask you travel advisor
Can you snorkel off the beach at the Flemenco ?
Yes! It’s quite good!
@@jenniferfisher4912 that's great news! Thank you
@@jenniferfisher4912do they let you borrow snorkel equipment or do you have to bring your own?
Great video! But you need to reapply sunscreen 🫣🫣
Was there food at the beach for everyone or only for the dimond club?
there are 2 locations for food on the beach, Diamond club and there General
is there any extra change for diamond club check-in?
Yes$$$$$
