Vacation rentals in Vinales

“Well, what can I say? Olga is definitely the best! During our three nights stay, she tried really her best to make things comfy for us. I highly recommend breakfast or dinner at hers. Price and tastes thumps up!!! During our stay, I wasn’t doing that well due to my bad tummy, she made noodle soup for me to make me feel better, asked me everyday about it. After having that noodle soup I felt much more better! The salad, fruits, coffee came from her garden. It’s natural, funny as well as cute when you are seeing her walked into some bushes and came out with a pineapple, a lime and so on. I really love it! The way how she speaks and prepares food reminds me of my mum... It’s also very convenient to take the Viñales-tour bus from Viñales Center to her place. It costs 5 CUC per person but the ticket works for both direction and the whole day (from 9am to 6pm). From Havana you can take a collective taxi, which I highly recommend: please ask Olga earlier to arrange it. It totally worth it and it’s much more trustworthy. I don’t speak Spanish but we did try to understand each other. Actually it’s more fun when I don’t speak the language. Sometimes you just don’t need to say too much but a smile, a move of dance means a lot. Oh you don’t need to worry about the private zone. Olga won’t bother you if you wish to take some rest. The time at Olga’s place was so far the best for me and I really really love it. My trip in Cuba continue and I hope everything goes well with Olga. I wish her all the best and my love.”

“You can expect to meet some of the finest people on the earth here. Not only by staying with Norma and Carlos, but by being in Vinales. Sure there are some townspeople who are scrambling for a buck and might want to charge you more for things you could possibly get for less, but as long as you are comfortable with it, it's probably all good. Carlos and Norma's place is extremely comfortable (the bed was a bit soft, but we got used to it over the course of five days) and you have the use of their roof top "plaza", the garden and their small "restaurant" for Norma's hearty breakfasts and dinners ($5 for breakfast, $10 for dinner). Everything you see in the listing is correct. Everything is spic and span, the value is extraordinary and they do everything to help you. They planned our cab from Havana to Vinales and our horseback and hiking excursions. Carlos even took our bags to the Viazul bus on his motorbike! Their suggestions of restaurants in town (Les Tres Jotas, La Cucina de Medio and Balcon del Valle) were excellent. I would skip most of the Fincas de Tobacco unless you are prepared to haggle and know cigars and rum, but DO NOT MISS taking hikes around the valley with Miguel, which Norma and Carlos will arrange. We loved the natural surroundings, Miguel's knowledge of plants and birds and all the people we met and the experiences we had thanks to Miguel. We spent five days with Norma y Carlos -- and we highly recommend a longer stay than the day or two most folks stay in Vinales. It's a breathtakingly beautiful place with plenty to do including nightly music in the cultural centers, dancing classes, and taking a bus to the beach at Cayo Jutias for the day ($15 per person). We came to Pinar del Rio province in search of my Cuban heritage and long-lost family members and instead found a new family with Carlos and Norma. We just plain love them. Volveremos!”

“We had a very pleasant experience in Mileidys’s house! The location is very good and close the the center, restaurants, bars, shops, etc. Mileidy and Papo are very nice people. They helped us with everything we needed, gave us good tips on Vinales and organiseed for us different trips near the town. The hose and the room were perfect with a very nice view on the mountains and tabaco fields. The bathroom was very spacy and perfectly clean as the rest of the house. The bed is very confortable as well. We had a very delicious breackfast for a great start of the day (don’miss it!! :)). We definitely recommend this place!!!”
