Its not really my style, but I guess that's how a DW is supposed to be!
How about you? What are your plans? Are you bringing a photog with you or using the resort one?
Not sure if you found it yet, but there is a Facebook page for MLD! |

 | Re: Melia Las Dunas We were looking at Las Dunas as well ... but are leaning toward Melia Cayo Guillermo instead ... closer to the airport!!
And I think the lack of response is due to the majority of American brides on here ... they're not allowed in Cuba remember!!!!
That's awesome that you booked there though ... did you go through a travel agent or do everything on your own??
