Charming and Chill Independent House in Downtown!
Was very nice! Truly a beautiful home. We did end up losing power and the generator went out. I wish someone would’ve shown us to check the generator battery level so we could’ve known it was running out or to conserve more power.

Havana Views with Wifi
Nice experience, fascinated with the apartment, everything was very clean and well-equipped, the view was incredible, zero blackouts in that area, the building was very safe, elevator and private parking inside the building, Karla and her father Javier's service was excellent, very friendly and helpful, we will definitely return, I rate it 11 out of 10.

Living by the sea.
We can’t say enough good things about Luca, his space, and his staff. The design is stunning, and the entire stay feels like an experience, not just a place to sleep. Laura and the team went above and beyond with everything from private in-home breakfasts to laundry and taxi service—making an already incredible place even better. The pool and ocean views are exactly like the photos—jaw-dropping. My parents were supposed to join us but couldn’t make it. After seeing our photos and videos, they’re already talking about coming back with us. Highly recommend and hope to return sooner than later!

Villa Vista Bella la Mar
The house was beautifully maintained and very close to the beach! Javier was so helpful, trustworthy and took care of all our needs very well. Fully recommend staying here!

La Casa de la Cascada Havana
Great location and a stunning house and garden. Ernesto and Adrian were very attentive to our needs and even helped me get groceries and brought over some camomile tea when my cousin had some cramps.

Hostel Omar and Maritza. With ocean views.
Omar and Maritza were fantastic hosts. I highly recommend staying there. The room is perfect for two people and is within walking distance of nice restaurants and the beach. The WIFI was inconsistent but the electricity stayed on for the 2 weeks I was there. They gave me an excellent exchange rate for my U.S. dollars to Cuban pesos. Omar and Maritza were very flexible and helpful. I can't imagine there is a better place for me to have spent my first 2 weeks in Cuba. Guardalavaca is a beautiful beach with many activities to do even if you are not a guest of the resorts.

Beach house “ Playa Buren 121”
Host Maria was very nice and helpful with suggestions and securing us with a ride to Havana.

Pelican House (Family Suite)
I was warmly welcomed to this beautiful, very quiet accommodation close to the beach. My hosts spoke English and French, which is very pleasant after several weeks in Cuba. The accommodation is very clean, well air-conditioned and equipped with recent equipment. If you want wifi, you will need to buy a top-up at the Etecsa, which is a 10-minute walk from the property. Small bonus, a dog and a cat that are too cute reside in the property!
Your guide to Cuba
All About Cuba
With more than 3,000 miles of coastline, incredible coral reefs, stunningly blue oceans, and Sierra Maestra’s rolling hills and forests, Cuba’s natural beauty is only matched by its picturesque cities. Vintage cars still travel the streets, while the many preserved buildings in Cuba’s cities, especially Havana’s World Heritage-listed Old Town, evoke an appreciation for the enduring art and design of previous eras. Cuba is a country with many influences, from its earliest days as home to the Guanahatabey, Ciboney, and Taíno peoples, to its time as a Spanish colony and sugar-producing capital of the Caribbean.
The country has a rich and multi-faceted history that is worth engaging with firsthand at one of many cultural attractions. Explore museums such as the acclaimed National Museum of Fine Arts of Havana and Museo de la Revolución, and feel the sea breeze atop the fortress of Castillo de San Pedro de la Roca.
The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Cuba
The best time to visit Cuba is during the dry season, between November and April. The temperatures are cooler, the air less humid, and heavy rain is much less of a concern. It’s the perfect time to rent a Cuban house, or other rentals in Cuba, to enjoy the balmy, sunny weather. Fresh produce is in plentiful supply during the dry season, along with fewer mosquitos and tropical pests. Cuba’s lobster season runs between June and February as well — a great time to enjoy fresh shellfish.
Stand-out events include a celebration of urban dance in April, and the disco festival in May is one of the biggest disco events all year. In August, at the tail end of monsoon season, Cuba hosts Carnival celebrations, and in October, Fiesta de la Cubania in Bayamo allows you to indulge in music, dancing, and delicious local cuisine. Havana’s jazz festival in December draws musicians worldwide.
Top things to do in Cuba
Old Havana - Habana Vieja
Old Havana’s cobbled streets and historic buildings are a window into the Cuba of the past. Architectural attractions such as the Plaza de la Catedral, upon which the Cuban Baroque Catedral de San Cristobal stands tall, are two of many structures marking this area a UNESCO World Heritage site. Plaza Vieja is home to preserved Spanish colonial-era buildings and the camera obscura, offering views across Cuba from its top.
Varadero
A sparkling white sand beach, Varadero stretches across the coast of Peninsula de Hicacos, connected to the mainland by bridge. Twenty-five kilometers of pristine coastline offers excellent fishing for grouper and tuna, along with tens of snorkeling and diving sites in and around coral reefs. Alternatives to beach activities include the Parque Josone at the mainland end of the strip, home to lush flower gardens, a swimming pool, and a small lake where visitors can glide around in paddle boats.
Parque Nacional Viñales - Valle de Viñales
The Parque Nacional Viñales is another of Cuba’s World Heritage sites, a magnificent valley dotted with steep limestone hills known as mogotes, creating a dramatic landscape overlooking fields of tobacco, fruit, and vegetables. Hiking trails and horseback riding in the hills are another great way to spend a sunny afternoon.
