Paraíso Beach, on Cayo Largo del Sur, Cuba, has once again been included among the Travellers’ Choice this year, as the 11^th best beach in the world. This coveted award is based on the criteria issued on TripAdvisor, which recently exceeded 260 million users. This unrivalled jewel of the Caribbean, with its amazingly unspoilt landscape, pure environment, crystal-clear waters and ever-cool, fine white sand, is world renowned for its scenery and sea beds, classed among the most beautiful on the planet.

Thus begins the beautiful legend of the Aboriginal goddess of light, which led to the creation of the Yhi Spas, the signature brand of Meliá Hotels International, dedicated to the wellness of the mind and body. Designed as a place of worship for those seeking relaxation, renewal and revitalisation, these spa and wellness centres are inspired by every one of the different ancient cultures. Available in Cuba in 6 hotels under the Meliá and Paradisus brands, the Yhi Spas enable guests to enjoy a sensorial stay dedicated to purifying the body, balancing the mind and nourishing the soul, where the aromas, colours and flavours, accompanied by soft music and the sensitive touch of expert hands, will make the experience an unforgettable moment of peace and indulgence.

Unscrew the bottom of the coffee pot, add cold water and then the coffee, delicious Cuban coffee! Screw the coffee pot back together and place it on the stove. So far, everything as usual…But now for the new part! In a metal mug, sweeten it with honey and serve it in small cups. This is one of the traditional ways of making coffee in the most eastern part of Cuba.
