Fodor's Expert Review CIB María la Gorda
María la Gorda, Pinar del Río, 24150, Cuba
You can't get more off-the-beaten path than at this simple, beachfront hotel; it's the best option in this snorkeler's paradise, with a top-notch diving center that attracts an international clientele. The cabins and rooms are modest but comfortable, with air-conditioning and ceiling fans. The majority of rooms have a beach view, but they are on a first-come, first-served basis, for a small extra fee. The restaurant's buffet fare ($) improves vastly when someone catches a fresh pargo. The hotel also serves as bar, disco, and general headquarters for the entire peninsula.
PROS
- a no-frills but romantic setting that offers some of the best dives in the hemisphere
CONS
- difficult to reach
