With Cuba facing recent challenges related to power outages, vacation provider Sunwing has announced the removal of 26 hotels from its lineup, while continuing to promote other enticing Caribbean destinations. Despite these adjustments, Sunwing remains dedicated to Cuba as a winter getaway.
Recent inclement weather, including a series of late-season storms, has resulted in temporary disruptions to Cuba’s power grid, prompting concerns from travelers about their experiences. “For Cuba specifically, I can confirm 26 hotels have been removed from our product lineup. We’re committed to providing transparent information about the resorts and the experiences travelers can expect,” shared Sunwing spokesperson Melanie Filipp.
This adjustment reflects Sunwing’s ongoing commitment to ensuring that clients receive the best possible experiences. The company has implemented measures to enhance transparency for travel advisors regarding the standards of the resorts it offers. In light of these developments, Sunwing plans to recommend "hidden gems" in other regions of the Caribbean, which cater to travelers seeking unique experiences away from crowded tourist spots.
“By promoting destinations that may not be as frequented as popular hotspots, we aim to offer incredible value, often in less congested areas,” Filipp noted. Among the alternative destinations highlighted by Sunwing are resorts located in Roatan, Panama, La Romana, and San Andres, Colombia.
By shifting focus to these lesser-known areas, Sunwing not only aims to enhance its customers’ travel experiences but also to support local economies in promising regions across the Caribbean. Continued coverage on this situation will be available in future editions of Open Jaw, keeping travelers informed about the changing landscape of holiday options in the Caribbean.
For those interested in exploring alternative travel destinations, consider researching more about these spots on travel-focused platforms such as TripAdvisor or resort-specific websites. This will help ensure an enjoyable and fulfilling travel experience.
