Cuba Hotels

If you’re looking for a unique Caribbean experience, Holidays to Cuba offer one of the region’s most exciting prospects. The largest island in the Caribbean is one that we appropriately associate with the larger than life. Havana is famous for its cigars, for its music and its political leaders. Nevertheless, the pre-revolutionary Cuba of Vegas-style gambling is still present and correct, and quirkier relics remain (famously including the many 1950s American cars, kept running for generations by Cuban families). It’s a nation of fantastic contrasts, quite unlike any other in the Caribbean or the world.

But as hectic as this all makes Cuba seem, it’s also as far as you can possibly get from the rat race. If you are lost without a nearby fast food chain and strangely unable to tolerate a city that isn’t festooned with billboards, Cuba may not be for you. But for many tourists, being launched into the cultural deep end of the Cuban holiday will be the treat of a lifetime. Cuban cuisine unites the best of Spanish, African and Caribbean cuisine and offers a delicious prelude to a night of local music and nightlife.
