    The beach and the water are best I have seen in the world. Every one raves about Bahamas but has nothing on this color and clear water.

    We stayed in a casa particular in Old Havana, and it was amazing! The best experience was our tour with Liber, who took us on a guided tour in a beautiful, old, blue convertible Chevrolet, where we cruised the city for an hour and afterward walked around Old Havana for two hours. We saw the most beautiful places and were told in-depth about Cuba's history, politics etc. We can really recommend Liber, who is also fluent in English, so the communication was smooth and easy! You can contact him on WhatsApp ‪+53 5 2683005‬. Have fun!🤩

    Trip to Viñales with Gonzalo

    My husband and I went to Viñales in June 2024 with a great guide Gonzalo Herrera. He was our driver as well, and he drives a classic car so we combined 2 in 1 on that day. Cara was really nice, clean, with AC. He picked us up at our home and drove us back there which was really nice.
    Drive there takes 3 hours but on a way we got to see village life of Cubans and talked to Gonzalo on various topics. His English is great and he’s very intelligent and knowledgeable.
    We visited tobacco farm, rode horses, ate delicious farm meal, hiked in the cave, saw prehistoric mural, and a breathtaking view from jazmines point.
    It was a full day excursion 11-12 hours with lots of positive emotions. We absolutely recommend to take it with Gonzalo if you are visiting Cuba and want to immerse in rural life of Cubans.

    It use to be called "The pearls neckless of Habana"...we've been told that at night, from the sea, the lights from Malecon looks like a neckless at the neck of the old lady. Anyway, a long promenade to walk, cycle etc.

    Incredible art indulgence! Such a cool project that continues to grow, bringing tourism and money to a Havana neighborhood. Highly recommend spending a few hours here and exploring the local artist galleries on the street. I’ve traveled all over the world and this was indeed a unique experience!

    Great location with amazing views, the staff very friendly and helpful. Very generous with food and drinks...
    However, they had lots of cats roaming round the food area which I DID NOT like. Overall I'd give them 4/5

    I also want to comment about the kids club/crèche because we went with kids and needed a place for them to have fun... very amazing staff. Bia was so great with the kids...

    First of all, this is the most beautiful waters Ive ever seen… the shades…. Temperature….. just like a natural pool… mind boggling
    Cayo Blanco is a paradise and I super recommend!
    I made my reservation through Havanatur - $75/ person
    They were very punctual and organized
    The staff were very attentive and made sure everyone was satisfied and happy! It was a lot of fun.

    Open bar
    It’s “all inclusive” but getting at the island, the pinas coladas and coconut water are not.
    Also, make sure to ask for sealed water bottles - im sure they are just filling bottles with tap water, i could see it wasn’t clean

    Food
    The lunch is included however very poor options. The lobster was the only thing that tasted good but it made me extremely sick. I have no idea how that is prepared and if it’s safe to eat.
    Now I am having tea while vomiting . Not good

    This is the most beautiful beach I have ever been to. It’s like being in a dream. Gorgeous white sand beaches you can walk for hours. I was relaxing on my floatie when a stingray swam beneath me. Snorkelled for 2 minutes before finding a starfish.

    The restaurant boasts great off the resort meals for cheap. We ate 3 meals + alcoholic drinks for $30 CAN.

    If you want to feel like you went to heaven, spend a day on this beach.
