The apartment was really nice and very clean. The hosts were very hospitable - we could call them at anytime for anything. The area was in the Center of Havana, so it was easy to get around.

Great host! Very friendly and helpful. Good central location close to El Malecon and La Rampa. The historical area and downtown with main museums and landmarks are quite close, too. You can take a cheap cab to get there. You will have a clean apartment (flat) on the 5th floor. It has two rooms, kitchen, and bathroom. Air conditioning is provided. The house has the elevator.

A perfect beginning in Cuba. Had our own apartment in the middle of Havanna, walking distance to a lot of great spots. Clean, with kitchen and balcony with a washing machine. And Carlos and Darwing were perfect hosts, gave us a card of Havanna and answered all of our questions. Looking forward to come back!
How do I book?
Contact the host to check their availability and ask them any questions you have about staying with them. Once the host confirms they’re available for your dates, you can complete your booking.
When do I pay?

You then pay your host on arrival or as stated by your host on their profile and agreed by you on booking. Please be cautious if a host requests advance payment if its not included on their profile. Our hosts have been advised that if they wish to request advance payment they must make this explicit in their profile. We do not recommend the use of Money gram or Western Union.
When can I share my contact details?
Host and Guest email address, phone number and home address will be exchanged in a confirmation email sent to both immediately after a booking is completed. It's against our policy for Guests and Hosts to exchange direct contact details via our messaging system.
