Excellent meals, very clean, good air conditioning. Staying at Casa Isis y Juani really made our whole trip to Cuba. They were so friendly and helpful, and made us the best food we had in Cuba. Their attention to detail with meal service and extra assistance with trip planning and reservations makes them exceptional hosts. They can refer you to Jorge, a chauffeur and tour guide, whom I recommend. We liked him so much we did 3 day-trips with him, including snorkeling in the Bay of Pigs, crocodile farm tour, Bellamar Caves and sightseeing around Havana and Matanzas. Both apartments are private but share a very nice courtyard with the family home. Boca de Camarioca beach (pictured) is a couple minutes walk away and Varadero beach is a 10-15 minute bus ride away. I would definitely stay with Isis and Juani again! They’re wonderful and trustworthy people.

Beautiful colonial house! Rooms have excellent air conditioning. Mariceli responded right away whenever I emailed, and she was very helpful. The breakfast is 5 CUC per person on top of the room rate, but well worth it with excellent Cuban coffee, fresh juice, tropical fruit, ham and cheese panini, eggs, and toast. Grandma will make you dinner for 10 CUC with notice, and it's better than most restaurants in the area. Two apartments are available across the street for more privacy as well. You still get to eat in the colonial house.
