If you want to reconnect with nature and explore the marvelous landscape of Cuba, spend a day hiking in the Viñales Valley.

There are plenty of other things Cuba is famous for! Planning a trip to Cuba any time soon? Here is a list of the best party resorts in Cuba. Feel free to browse below.

They have a resident dance team which does everything from aquatic ballet to vaudeville and talented roving dinner musicians performing jazz by sax and guitar and classical renditions of Lenard Cohen by cello and violin. At The Sanctuary there one night of OK dinner music and the large scale circus like performance to the general audience at the 400 seat theater with general seating…” - by Google reviewer, Bruce Raynor

7. Paradisus Río de Oro Resort & Spa, Holguín

Highlights Nature Retreat Wellness Luxury Adult Only All Inclusive Couple Travel

Editor's Note: Photo taken from the establishment's official social account

This adult-only resort is located in Bahía de Naranjo National Park. It offers stunning views of the mountains that I’d spend all day soaking in. Days here are loaded with excitement, whether it’s snorkeling in crystal-clear waters, attending aqua gym lessons, or playing beach volleyball on sun-kissed sands.

The resort comes alive with a vibrant energy post-sunset. You can dance to the beats of a live DJ at the nightclub or belt out your favorite tunes during lively karaoke sessions. The resort offers themed evenings with live music too. There’s even a dance floor to bust some moves. The special events make every night unforgettable as well. When hungry, indulge in gourmet dining and refreshing beachside cocktails. And after a long, exciting day, retreat to one of the luxurious rooms.

What guests are saying about their stay:

“…Evening entertainment was always in 3 parts with lounge music then Cuban then floor show segments every night. Activity staff will keep you busy around the pool (beach/pool volleyball and water aerobics were popular)…” - by Google reviewer, Gary Lyon

Highlights Adult Only View All Inclusive Beachfront Wellness Luxury

Editor's Note: Photo taken from the establishment's official social account

Memories Jibacoa is the ultimate adults-only party resort, set against the stunning backdrop of verdant mountains. This all-inclusive haven strikes the perfect balance between adventure and relaxation and offers spacious hacienda-style accommodations. Sip tropical cocktails by the beach at the Sea Breeze Bar, dance to the hottest tracks at Moon Disco, or cheer on your favorite team at Route 66, where live games are broadcast.

With direct access to the crystal-clear waters of Arroyo Bermejo Beach, you can dive into water sports, explore nature on hiking trails, or discover vibrant coral reefs while diving. I’d also suggest trying out the tennis or basketball court.

What guests are saying about their stay:

“…There is plenty of wonderful entertainment laid on each day, with numerous shows and things to do. The production of the evening shows was absolutely fabulous and the entertainers were very talented. Regrettably, it was raining quite a bit when I was there so most of the evening shows had to be performed in the nightclub rather than on the wonderful stage they have set up by the pool. Thankfully on my last night the weather was better and I got to experience the Cuban show on the outside stage where there is more space and a better soundsystem and this was one of the highlights of my stay…” - by Google reviewer, Darren Thomas
