Transat wants to draw your attention to some of the latest additions to its hotel portfolio that its product people believe offer great value for the price. Over the coming weeks, the operator will introduce a selection of hotels in various destinations, and Transat’s in-house specialists will explain what makes them stand out.

For its first communication, Transat has selected Cuba -- “one of our flagship destinations.”

Travellers looking for an inspiring and sensory getaway will find the perfect place to recharge their batteries.”
