À la carte restaurants at Cuba resorts often require advance reservations. The process can differ by hotel and may involve guest services, a concierge desk, an app, a telephone line or an in-person reservation table.
Book early in the stay
Ask about restaurant reservations soon after arrival. Popular dining times can fill quickly, especially when restaurants operate only on selected evenings or with reduced seating.
Confirm what your package includes
- Number of reservations included during the stay
- Restaurants available to your room category
- Premium menus or drinks that cost extra
- Dress code and age restrictions
- Cancellation and late-arrival rules
Verify every reservation detail
Confirm the restaurant name, location, date, time and number of guests. Mention food allergies or dietary restrictions before the meal whenever possible.
Keep proof of the reservation
Take a photo of the booking slip or save the confirmation screen. If the reservation cannot be found, speak with guest services before the scheduled dining time.
Arrive early
Restaurants may release tables when guests arrive late. Large properties can involve long walking distances, so allow extra time or confirm whether an internal resort shuttle cart is available.
Keep a backup meal option
Restaurant schedules, ingredients and menus may change. Check buffet and snack-bar hours in case the reservation is delayed, moved or cancelled.
