Las Terrazas del Atardecer

Villa Clara Province


The newest of the three shopping/entertainment centers on Cayo Santa María, this one has its own beach – although you're supposed to pay CUC$5 to use it. There's also the obligatory bowling alley, multiple shops and a good ocean-facing cocktail bar called Chachachá's.

It's located at the east end of Cayo Santa María, just east of the Ocean Casa del Mar.
