Hey Charmainiac and Zephie Welcome back!!!!! I can't wait to hear all about your trip and I hope you got a chance to see some of my frineds.

I have a question for you, did the beach bar burn down AGAIN!! I was reading a review on another site and someone who returned from Villa Cuba on January 10 said it burned again....What's up with that??

Jammyisme · « **Reply #9 on:** January 15, 2007, 12:56:00 PM »

Hey BJ. Ya it was burnt down. Last week they were slowly putting it back together. In the meantime they were using one of the villas instead. I forget when it happened and how. Think it was a mistake with a bbq. Correct me if Im wrong charm hun? :D

BJ · « **Reply #10 on:** January 15, 2007, 01:15:00 PM »

OMG, this will be the second time that poor beachbar has burned down..They were working on for 2 years now.

Hotel Villa Cuba: Candid traveler photos - TripAdvisor." If I did this right, there are pics of the beachbar on fire. Do you know which villa they were using as a bar? We have made a request for villa 3381 it is the one close to the bar. It is a one story house. I am hoping they aren't using it. We are going in April for 2 weeks.
The weather man is calling for 15 cent. of snow and high winds for us on the east coast, could be an old fashion noreaster..
Can't complain, it has been a great winter so far..Cuba Libras will help get through it......

Hey BJ!
Well, it's really true! The Beach Bar burned down again!
Here's what it looks like from the 7th floor:
;)
I hope this helps explain the situation a bit better.

Jammyisme · « **Reply #12 on:** January 16, 2007, 06:33:00 AM »

Hey there :D The villa that they took over I beleive is the one to the right in Charm's picture.

Charm, doesn't the weather so suck now? OMG :roll:

BJ · « **Reply #13 on:** January 16, 2007, 07:36:00 AM »

Hey Charmainiac and Jammy, I love hearing all about your holiday. The pics are great. I still can't believe the beach bar is gone...We have been waiting for 2 years for it to be up and running from the last time it burned...Oh well.
Jammy, I was looking at your pics that you posted and the one with the hamburg lady I noticed in the background a good friend of ours his name is 0-Nine ( I don't know how to spell his name but that is what it sounds like). I was looking at the pic with the band at the pool bar, do you know if they are new. I don't remember any of the members. I know the bands come and go alot at these resorts..
Anything else you guys would like to share with us.

Jammyisme · « **Reply #14 on:** January 16, 2007, 11:07:00 AM »

OH absolutely. The whole place is under new management. *Charm can jump on this anytime* Everywhere I looked the place was being worked on. Painting, landscaping cleaning. Even the entertainment has gone up a notch. The client services guy was everywhere making sure that the guests were happy and being taken care of. They even gave out a survey sheet after one of the meals to see what we thought of the new service. Im very impressed. dunno what do you think Charm? A :p
