The traditional Meliá Cuba Golf Cup, is a specialist annual event, offering golfers the opportunity to enjoy their sport over the 18 holes of the finest green in Cuba. The Cup is held at the Varadero Golf Club, a narrow stretch, parallel to the beach, of more than 60 hectares, with playing areas, forests of native vegetation and lagoons, making it an enormously attractive setting. The Meliá Las Américas hotel, which has been hosting the event since it was first held, is a 5-star, adult-only resort.
