I was born in Cuba,we immigrated to the USA when I was three years old. My older sister went to visit a few years ago and found our old apartment building,she told me the place looked the same as she remembered it. Beautiful resort,glad you enjoyed your vacation there!💕
@@Finding-Fish Thank you for your reply, we left Cuba during the Cold War era. Our story is too much hardship and despair, some stories belong to the dead past. Subscribed to your channel, very enjoyable tour.💕🙏
Great to meet you Mike at a great resort. Remember to try the coastal walk to Playa Pilar sometime. Great eco hike but wear good foortwear! Regards from Air Canada
Great video Fish. We enjoyed meeting you and ‘chatting vacations’ with you at the Gran Muthu Imperial. - Dave and Julie from Wasaga Beach (The longest fresh water beach in the world). PS - Be sure to check out Blue Bay in Curacao when you get a chance. Happy travels.
Nice video, excellent photography. The only thing I don't care for is the beach, not the best, but otherwise it is a lovely resort. Great price. I have subscribed. I want to start traveling again.
The shortages in Cuba have been very inconsistent. One resort might have trouble getting all kinds of things while the ones around them have everything. When that place straightens things out and is well stocked, all of a sudden a different one that was always great now has bare cupboards. We saw this in action Varadero about a month ago. The place we were at (Grand Memories Varadero) has always been amazing previously, but this time they were out of so many things that we started going into town to buy them to bring back to our room. The stores in Varadero were all well stocked, as were the surrounding resorts that our friends were staying at.
Love your videos ! I have been at the Grand Muthu beside the Imperial and really enjoyed my week in Sept 2019 my room had the most amazing view and the buffet was quite good. I would really like if you did a review at the Iberostar Bella Vista in Varadero that’s where I am going next month and it looks quite nice ! 🏖️😎🐠🍹
it's hard to pin down 1 resort!!! there are so many qualities of each resort. I've been to Cuba over 35 times and i'm working on a video talking about this subject
Hey Mike just wondering if you ever been to the Melia Cayo Coco to do one of your walk throughs. Love what you are doing for the community of UA-camrs, keep up the good work.
i'm constantly looking for deals, i've been doing this for over 10 years and i know the best times to travel and book trips, please subscribe, in the coming months i might make a video on how to find the best value for travel. thanks Mike
Hi Mike. Would you recommend the Gran Muthu Imperial or the Gran Aston Paredon. I am going with 3 kids 2, 10 and 13. And whats important for us is the beach. Thanks
Grand Aston Paredon Way closer to the Airport, Newer Resort!!! Easy to manage and walk around But just my personal opinion Best of luck Mike Finding Fish
Hi friend which beach in cuba that you have been you consider is the most beautiful and clear?,is pilar beach at cayo guillermo better then sirena beach at cayo largo or cayo santa maria?whats the difference between them?
Love your videos Mike. Thanks for sharing. My fiancée and I are trying to decide which resort we want to go to in Cuba. Random question…any places you’ve been to recently where you can get a Bloody Mary or a Caesar? It’s not a make or break for where we want to go…they’re our fav cocktails and just wondering if anywhere in Cuba serves them. Thanks! 🌴🍹🇨🇺🇨🇦
sometimes I see Bloody Mary or Caesar, but I haven't recently, you could always put on a plastic bottle of Caesar mix in your checked luggage and pack it well. I know most resorts have lots of Vodka Rum Rye and Tequila, but they can run low once in awhile. Have Fun i have a few move Videos coming out this week and next.
We went there. Came back on august 5th 2023. Very bad. 2/3 of the resort is closed. Food is very tasty but no variety at all. The neighboring hotel of the same holding company has everything, no shortage and no reduced services. Both hotels could share but they dont because they prioritize the other hotel aimed toward families
That looks amazing. How ate you gettin such cheap flights? Who do you fly with. Would love to see your camera setup. Got a small view of it in the mirror.
@@Finding-Fish that’s what I’ve heard! I’ve seen that Dhawa hotel is good too not sure if you’ve been! This is a last min travel plan so trying to research as much as I can lol
Another great Video Mike, I was at the Muthu post Covid in May of 21, nice resort but the flies in the buffet were a real turn off, do you often find in most resorts that this is the case or is the Muthu the exception?
One of things I don't like with Cuban resorts is that they use to charge extra when you travel by yourself...they should change this specially when is low season...any comments please...
Depends on the Resort Some Resorts offer the Single Supplement Memories Property usually are the best choices for singles, no up charge! But usually from September till December
My husband and I love your videos! They are very informative and give all details needed to book a stay! I wanted to ask if you you have any insight on what type of services will be offered once the Imperial becomes a family resort in November? Just trying to find out if there will be an Adult Only section? We want to book for February but hesitating as there is any info anywhere Thank you for any update you can provide😊
I will try to find out, I know the a few people there. thanks for your comment i appreciate it. It would be nice if theres an Adults only. Nice resort with a great pool.
I’ve been watching your videos , thanks for posting full of info. Which would you recommend based on your experience, grand muthu imperial or valentine el patriarca? Thanks so Much
If you love pools and a newer Resort Gran Muthu is very nice!!! If you Love beaches and Sand Flamenco... I will be heading to more resorts in the next few months making new reviews!!!! I do love Flamenco!!! Check out my $5 hop-on hop-off i actually take it to Flamenco.... Enjoy
Hi Brother, I appreciate your honest opinions. What do you rate the beach and the food out of 10? Our family is a food and Beach lover. Are they changing food every day and what types of meat they serve. Thank you... much appreciated
Okay!!! The beach is not my top choice at this resort!!! I have been to so many better beaches!!! The food was good!!! At the time I made this video!! But things always change in Cuba, ups and downs!!! But the pools at this resort rocked
This place currently lacks basic necessities such as water, towels, toilet paper, and basic food. It is also unhygienic due to the lack of fresh water circulation in the swimming pool and no water in public toilets, as well as toilets in the guest rooms. The unsanitary conditions in buffet with infestation of flies drowning in food on the display counters. Protect your health and stay away from Grand Muthu Imperial.
Thanks Mike 🎉
Amazing video. We love Cuba....
Your videos are great. When I'm thinking of going on a trip, I hit up your channel first thing.
Thanks Awesome Rocky
Great video Mike , we looked at this property . Thanks for reviewing !
Great vid Mike. Looks like they are on top of things there. Pools look great but I like the beach at MJ better. Cheers.

Very nice hotel. Would you recommend Gran Muthu Imperial or Iberostar Origin Daiquiri ?
Thanks alot ! Cayo Guillermo is such à hidden gems. ❤
I was at Diaquiri is an older Resort
Beautiful beach
Good food quality
But what are you looking for in a Resort?
It one towel on the loungers at 6.30??!! Leaving next Saturday. Hope that’s the case.

@@Finding-Fish Thanks. That will be helpful.
Hi Mike. Would you recommend the Gran Muthu Imperial or the Gran Aston Paredon. I am going with 3 kids 2, 10 and 13. And whats important for us is the beach.
Thanks
Grand Aston Paredon
Way closer to the Airport,
Newer Resort!!!
Easy to manage and walk around
But just my personal opinion
Best of luck Mike
Finding Fish
👋do you like the beach in iberostar daquiri . Been to iberostar ensenachos ❤❤❤one of the best beach in Cuba
The beach was good
Not Ensenachos
But good
Thank you for making this video. To bad you didn’t include the city
The City?
@@Finding-Fish I thought that there were excursions to town?
Hi friend which beach in cuba that you have been you consider is the most beautiful and clear?,is pilar beach at cayo guillermo better then sirena beach at cayo largo or cayo santa maria?whats the difference between them?
Making the video
Best beach in Cuba
Beach looks rocky. Which beach is better between this resort and Memories Caribe Cayo Coco?
Ohhh The Memoires Caribe is better
Please Subscribe if you haven’t already, i have alot more content coming!!!

You took me from Antigua and Barbuda to Cayó Coco 😀🤣😂😃

Thanks Amigo
Does Gran Muthu Imperial has good nightlife? Are we allowed to access the facilities disco bar at other neightbouring MGM resorts?
I don’t know right now!!!
It’s low season
Remember
Great video!! Love Cuba! Which resort do you recommend in Cayo Coco for a solo traveler? Cheers!
Memories Caribe or Flamenco or Gran Muthu
I Believe they all do Single Rate occupancy
MGM has three hotels one of them is Lgbt Rainbow on the other side from your beach. You should have filmed it too , it’s much newer
I'm actually thinking of heading there in the fall to make a video !!!!
I'm heading down next week. How's the wifi and what voltage is been used?

I will chat with ya soon about it
i use a few cameras and will share details over messenger
@@Finding-Fishsounds good
How did you like the food generally at Gran Muthu hotels?
It was okay!!!
But food quality changes from time to time in Cuba
It could be better one month and lower another month

but some do

Depends on the Resort
Some Resorts offer the Single Supplement
Memories Property usually are the best choices for singles, no up charge!
But usually from September till December
I'm going to Memories Caribe, Cayo Coco Feb.19, 2025. No single supplement. I was pleasantly surprised 👍
My husband and I love your videos! They are very informative and give all details needed to book a stay!

I will try to find out, I know the a few people there. thanks for your comment i appreciate it. It would be nice if theres an Adults only. Nice resort with a great pool.
Would you say this place is better than memories caribe?
I like Memories Caribe!!! And if it’s on Sale I like Caribe even more, if you like beaches Caribe if you like pools Gran Muthu
I hope this helps
Which would you recommend? Grand memories cayo santa maria or Gran Muthu Imperial?
Grand Memories Santa Maria
Beautiful beach!!!
@@Finding-Fish thank you! My choice keeps on going back to grand memories
I’ve been watching your videos , thanks for posting full of info. Which would you recommend based on your experience, grand muthu imperial or valentine el patriarca? Thanks so

I was there in June and it was beautiful but the food was terrible I was sick for 3 days lol
that to bad!!!
@Finding Fish even though the food was not good I'm going back again it was that beautiful
You don’t go to Cuba for the food and wifi lol
Hi Brother, I appreciate your honest opinions.
What do you rate the beach and the food out of 10?
Our family is a food and Beach lover. Are they changing food every day and what types of meat they serve.
Thank you... much appreciated
Okay!!!
The beach is not my top choice at this resort!!!
I have been to so many better beaches!!! The food was good!!! At the time I made this video!!
But things always change in Cuba, ups and downs!!!
But the pools at this resort rocked
Would like you to checkout hoguin😊
This year
wifi in room?
Yes
beach here no good isn't?
YA NOT THE BEST
Hotel looks great but that beach sucks compared to memories Flamenco.
Who wakes up at 7am on vacation 😢
Great to get to the buffet when everything's fresh and untouched~!
@@dirkgraba5331 The buffet opens at 7 am?
@@doug7745 Up at 7..hit the buffet at 730 when it opens..then sleep on the beach!

every resorts in cuba toilet paper is very limit and very very lack of the basic as you mentioned.
Damn this review just turned me off , all inclusive cancun it is 😂😂
There is some food for the tourists but nothing for the Cuban people, that they can not even enjoy the resorts
the beach does not look too great to me, nor does the resort.Thanks but no.
my god the place is so empty were is every one .
March Break just ended and everyone went back to school and work!!!
Hey! Do you know if grand Muthu has connecting rooms? I seen on a video that they do but they aren’t listed on Sunwing or red tag! 🥲
I don't know!!! but Probably !
