Meet Heiko
Maria and her family made us feel very welcome as soon as we arrived. Her son has a smattering of English, but with the aid of Google Translate we were able to communicate reasonably well.
Maria organised a taxi to take us to the Botanical Gardens (worth a visit but take decent shoes / walking boots / bug repellant!).
In spite of the room being just off the main living area, it was clean and the bed was very comfortable. The bathroom is nicely done and there is hot and cold water. The shower wasn't very powerful but that didn't really matter.
Breakfast (5CUC extra) was a feast, with fresh juice and fruit followed by Tortilla.
By night, the Casa's rooftop terrace transforms into the El Mirador restaurant. We ate there both nights and the food was stunning. Whoever says the food in Cuba isn't up to much hasn't been eating at the right place. The Lamb is particularly recommended.
This Casa is in a fabulous location, being only a 10 minute stroll from the centre of Santiago de Cuba. The room is up some stairs, away from the main house and is very private. Outside of the room are 2 terraces, which are great for sunbathing and looking out over the city and to the sea. The room itself was clean and bright. Air con was good, and the fridge was stocked with soft drinks and beer. The bed was fine, but the mattress could have done with replacing. Theresa was very welcoming, and we managed to communicate even with her limited English. She organised a beautiful 50's Plymouth to take us to the airport at the end of our stay.
This was the first casa we stayed in, following the beginning of our travels in Havana. Vinales itself is magical, and this Casa was a perfect place to stay. The room was beautiful with a nice en suite and a well stocked fridge. Our hosts were very knowledgeable and helpful, and made us feel very welcome. Food was good and plentiful, and we were even provided with a packed lunch for our horse riding experience in the National Park. We would certainly return to Vinales, and if we do, we will definitely stay at this Casa again.
What a wonderful welcome we were given from Daniel and his family! We had a lovely comfortable room in the large house with an en suite bathroom. The room was clean and spacious with plenty of room for our clothes etc.
We ate at the Casa both nights on the fabulous terrace, and Daniel was the perfect host - friendly and full of local information. We would definitely return to this casa!
