Hi friend, I want to visit Cuba great sharing, stay connected 👍🏼
Thank you, I will
You'll love all the classic cars there.. pretty cool.. nice video
Thanks 👍 bro. Yeah those old classics cars were great to see.
It’s very amazing hotel. I can't wait to go there in a week. It will be my first trip to Cuba. I watch a lot of videos about this hotel. I want to say that everything is shown in detail.
Thank you. Hope you enjoy it!
Nice bro! Cuba 🇨🇺 high big 🏨
Good time in Cuba bro.
Hey JONAH VLOGS & DIY, thanks for the upload. I enjoy the video. Kinda long, but really informative. I would have loved this resort, only that it doesn't have a bathtub for my wife. She wakes up earlier than me and our boy, and usually has a relaxing bath. Hey thanks for sharing your moments 🙂
No worries. Glad you enjoyed it. Yeah my wife likes bathtubs too.
How was the food at Selectum and the nightly entertainment shows?
The nightly entertainment was great, especially the show in the pool. The food was good. Can't complain.
Another awesome video Jonah. You can plug iPhone or Android phone into the 220 volt plug. Just need a plug adapter but think our plugs will fit in those wall sockets. The iphones and android will charge in either 110 or 220 no problem. Should say on the charger 110-240
Great info, Didn't know that. But the round sockets maybe a problem. Thanks Kevin.
When i went to Blau varadero my charger fit in the Cuban wall socket@@jonahvlogsdiy4143
Yes I guess the wall charger is ok as long as the back says of 110 -220V
because Cuba has soul!
Yes for sure. love Cuba!
Thank you.
You're welcome!
Very interesting video I will be visiting the selectum next week .How much to take a tour to Havana in cuban peso for 2 ppl
You usually pay in American. Bus tour is $60-120 US depends on how many little towns they stop. We used a private guide with his classic chevy & negotiated $150 US for me, wife & daughter. Check out this link for our Havana tour. czcams.com/video/Inp4Hz59XJ0/video.html
Thank you so much!Can I change canadian dollars at the resort to cuban pesos?
Hi Jona !
How about the Wifi ?
Is it free and working ok ?
What about dinner and a la carte restaurant food?
That will be on the next video for sure. Stay tuned.
Hi! Thank you for your video we are heading to Selectum in a few weeks and i was kind of scared because some reviews said that the beach was terrible and that it smell bad…did you get any bad smell during your stay?
I Didn't notice any smell. On the right side of the beach is better. No rocks. Enjoy your stay.
Most phone chargers can already handle 220v without adjustment. Read the fine print.
That food spread was 100x better than when I went to Cayo Coco a year ago. Sure that wasn't just for the cameras, lol?
Good to know about the camera. My wife did try it, but put pulled it out later because the phone got too hot. No definitely not for the camera. We had a nice spread daily, but the resort is fairly brand new in Varadero & it's owned by a Turkish Co. Not sure if that had anything to do with it.
@@jonahvlogsdiy4143 A resort not owned by the government? That is new.
I'm sure the government is shaking their hands with them somewhere.
Can Americans travel there
I think you have to travel to Canada first. I remember I met an American but he flew out of Toronto, Canada.
😊 Привет! А сколько по времени вы летели в самолете?? И от куда у вас был вылет???
Why does it look so dead there ? Was there hardly any people ? We are going in 2 weeks . Looks super quiet
Yeah we try to do the video early in the morning when there is less people & avoid the crowd. If you're going in June, there will be less people because it's already summer in Canada. No need to go there when it's already warm here.
Can you post video about the a la carte restaurant?
Yes for sure. I just posted the video now. Enjoy.
Hello. Thanks for the informative video. I am planning to go with my family in two weeks. Can you please tell me what kind of food there was for lunch/dinner? Was there any seafood? I am a big seafood fan.
Also I am coming with my 5 year old son, were there any other kids at this resort?
Yes lots of kids. Sea food mainly consisted of fish. There was some calamari & shrimp at the buffet, although not often. No lobster with buffet. We didn't see lobster with the a la cart either. Book your a la cart restaurant right away when you get there because they do book fast. You may want to bring your own spices & ketchup because sometimes they are hard to find, or Nutella for your boy if he likes it. Bring mosquito/ bug spray also. Hopes this helps.
@@jonahvlogsdiy4143Hello. Thank you very much for your reply. Also, thanks again for the video. It was much better than the regular promotional videos because I was able to see first hand how everything was.
Overall, were you satisfied with the resort? My main concern is the beach, in some videos it seems like it's very rocky and not a lot of sand. In other videos (including your own) it seems like the beach was widened and the water was clean and clear.
Did you ever leave the resort and explore Varadero? And last question, I promise - was there a car rental service at the resort? I want to rent a car and drive to Havana with my family.
Thanks and take care! :)
Varadero beach looked very beautiful although we didn't go in the water. It's a nice town Varadero. I don't think you can drive yourself, you need a tour guide. My next video showed our visit to Havana. We had a great time.
Hello. May I ask how far of a walk it is from the Hotel to the beach? Second trip for me. Last time it was Cayo Coco. The staff didn't really understand English at all. How was your experience? I think I will use a translator this time.
By the way, the food looks good :)
Only about a 3 min walk to the beach. Most understand English but not all. A translator will definitely help. I really liked the food also but I'm not so picky either. Have fun in Varadero.
@@jonahvlogsdiy4143 If they offer what you had. It would be good. My experience last year was all dried meat and not so good stew. Thanks for replying:)
The 115v outlet can help to charge cell phone you think?😅
Yes for sure
Is there any wifi in the bedrooms
Yes for sure. Yes we watched CZcams all night .
Is it expensive?
It was $1275 Canadian in Feb but now I think it's $1150. It gets cheaper as we closer to summer.
No umbrellas around the pools « Outch »
Yeah you have to go early to get the canopy seats
Не едьте туда, пляж грязный, воняет сероводородом
Sorry, can you translate to English. Thank you.
Man that buffet sucks it looks very bland why would anyone will go to Cuba is beyond me when u can go to las terrenas in DR or puerto playa o playa de el Carmen in Mexico where u get real food
DR maybe. Mexico I hear too much crime.
I'd rather starve than get murdered thank you
Me too. lol
Mexico is fine depending where u go
Sometimes people like bland food like me. Love beach and scenery at Cuba.
