Cayo Santa Maria Cuba

Cayo Santa María, a jewel of the Jardines del Rey archipelago, north of Villa Clara, is one of Cuba's most exclusive and sophisticated beach destinations, where natural luxury and modern comfort merge to offer an unforgettable experience. Connected to the 48-kilometer causeway that crosses Buena Vista Bay—a UNESCO biosphere reserve—this key dazzles with more than 10 kilometers of pristine beaches with fine white sand, warm turquoise waters, and lush native vegetation.


Superior hotels such as the all-inclusive resorts of Meliá, Iberostar, Royalton, Grand Aston, and Valentín guarantee a stay of international quality, with options for adults only, families, or premium options with spa services, gourmet cuisine, water sports, and entertainment. The destination is a biodiversity sanctuary where you can spot flamingos, iguanas, and migratory birds, and enjoy ecological trails such as the Cayo Santa María Wildlife Refuge, or go snorkeling and diving in coral reefs close to the coast. For leisure activities, visitors can enjoy the dolphinarium, sunset catamaran rides, sport fishing, jet ski tours, or boat trips through the canals.


Other options in the area include organized excursions to nearby places such as the charming colonial town of Remedios, birthplace of the famous Parrandas; the city of Santa Clara, home to the Che Guevara Memorial; or hikes through the Escambray Mountains with access to rivers, waterfalls, and rural communities. You can also combine your stay with longer tours of Cienfuegos, Trinidad, or Havana.


Cayo Santa Maria is a perfect getaway for a honeymoon, family vacation, or a completely relaxing trip. Find the perfect balance of nature, comfort, and adventure in one place.
