U.S. citizens still need to jump through a few hoops to visit Cuba, but as visitors from around the world know, the island offers fascinating opportunities for cultural exchange... and some simply amazing beaches. Havana is a balance of old-world architecture and contemporary nightlife. The UNESCO World Heritage town of Trinidad is a vision of Spanish colonial architecture and makes a great base for a visit to the hauntingly beautiful Valley of the Sugar Mills.

Residencia Santa Clara is not your typical casa. Although you will find the same warmth that most Cuban hosts offer, the building, the service, the experience is of different level. Residencia Santa Clara is also an exceptional example of modern architecture within the constraints of Old Havana.
We stayed 7 nights here. The rooms were really nice and cleaned each day. Well situated by the historic area of Havana just in from the Harbour, easy walking distance to interesting sites. Evening entertainment and restaurants and bars with music close by. The breakfast was good, coffee kept coming. The staff were really friendly and helpful. Would stay again and would definitely recommend. Thank you to all the staff for a great stay, from Wendy and Paul

I had the most amazing stay at Casa Flamboyan. The room and facilities where clean and tidy and as described. It’s such a lovely little district close to many restaurants and bars. I also have thank Eduardo and Dalia for the way they looked they welcomed me, incredible warm and friendly. They sorted me out with taxis and helped me in anyway they could. I would highly recommend this Airbnb specially if you’re travelling solo and being amongst Cubans really made my experience. Thank you guys!

We are a 9 bedroom boutique hotel located in the heart of Old Havana Cuba.
Would definitely recommend this hostal! The building is beautiful, breakfast is delicious and best of all the staff are the loveliest of people! We want to thank Sarais and Aramis specifically for being so kind, friendly and helpful to us with all of our questions. They really made our stay here special and are wonderful people! The owner Richard is really welcoming and lovely and was a huge help so big thanks too! Our one piece of general advice would be to make sure you bring lots of cash with you to Cuba! The exchange rate at the ATM here is so bad that you’ll end up paying 4x the price for everything!!

They entertained us with stories of Cuba, their lives and loves. They were so generous in including our friends from other Casas in some beautiful evenings in the cool air. I can’t recommend the Casa more highly - pay them a visit! We’ll be back…

Vinales is a vibrant little town with everything a tourist needs to enjoy the stunning nearby scenery. Casa Jorge and Anna Luisa is very well placed on the edge of town to help you enjoy this scenery. We enjoyed walking around the area and had a good trip from a recommendation by our hosts. We stayed 2 nights but on reflection another night here would have helped us see more. Thank you to Anna Luisa and her daughter, you were delightful hosts
