Mariela and Lorenzo run a tight operation and were very helpful during our short stay in Trinidad. Although we didn't speak any Spanish and Mariela did not speak English, we did not have trouble communicating because Mariela is so patient and makes a great effort to make sure that we understand her. She handed us a map of Trinidad the... More

We were recommended to Mariela and Lorenzo by a friend in Havana, and though we didn't stay there (already booked somewhere else) we peeked at the rooms and they looked lovely.

I would definitely recommend casas particulares in Cuba over any of the national hotels... More
