    One of the best casas in Cuba for homestay! Ruby and the family/staff in the house are lovely and very helpful with everything you need. I enjoyed the chats with Ruby about Cuban life and all the tips for places to visit. The food is delicious too and so fresh! I would definitely reccommend it and I would love to go back again in the future! Thank you for a such a lovely experience of Cuba!

    I loved my stay at El Mirador Estrella…a pretty home in a quiet leafy-green neighborhood, away from the commotion of La Habana Vieja, but convenient to it and many other places of interest, either walking distance or an easy taxi ride. While you’ll enjoy a private room and bath (I stayed in the large upper room, which opened onto the rooftop of expansive views!) you’re welcome to share space and time with the family to your liking. And I expect that you’ll want to…..Rubi, Luis and their two young daughters (and even some of their extended family) are lovely! Rubi puts care and effort to every aspect of your stay. She couldn’t be more accommodating and eager to answer your questions and to help with whatever plans you want to make. She sees to it that you eat good healthy food and the house is kept immaculately clean. I felt so fortunate to have chosen El Mirador Estrella—the comfort and pleasure I experienced with them was a significant part of my visit to Cuba.

    Rubi and Luis were both absolutely lovely! The room was a great size and very clean. Both helped us out with anything we needed and recommended some great casa particulars for us to stay in on the rest of our travels in Cuba! I would recommend them to anyone staying in Havana!

    My cousin and I have no words to express how grateful we are to this wonderful and warm family. We immediately felt part of the family and it has been so sad the moment of saying "goodbye".
    We definitely recommend Luis & Ruby, for their kindness, honesty and friendliness!
    With love!

    This Casa is truly one of the best options in all of Havana. The location is very convenient with it located in the heart of Vedado. It is also centrally located between many of the best music venues in town (Vedado, and Miramar/Playa). It is very close to the Plaza de la Revolution and to the Malecon. It is walking distance to the old town. If you prefer to get around in the old 1950's American cars this Casa is also perfect as 23 street (a few streets down) is a major line connecting Miramar to Vedado, and the Malecon. The cars running this route also run straight into the old town as well. The cost per trip/person is 10 'National' (about 0.5 USD/CUC). This Casa is very clean and kept up better than any other building I have been in there in Cuba. There is an internet connection as well which is one of the most rare things to find in a Casa there. I stayed in the upper apartment for most of my stay and really enjoyed the views of the ocean and all of Havana from my terrace and rooftop. The most important thing to mention about this Casa is the unbelievably wonderful people who live there. The staff are absolutely great and the family welcomed me in and made me really feel at home in Havana. I will surely be back there my next trip!
