Smoking-friendly holiday rentals in Banes

When I messaged Yasmel with my ETA, he indicated that the property was not available. He did have an alternative in the building next door with family. That was great. I had an entire apartment with all the amenities to myself. Also, breakfast was included. The location is top, close to the beach. Yasmel only has an American phone number so my taxi couldn't call what the exact location was. Still found with some questions around.

Thanks to Marcia and her husband for such a great experience and being great hosts. Excellent ocean views from our windows. Great hospitality. Amazing real Cuban people we have met. Very friendly and professional. Highly recommended. Great memories.

I stayed at this property with my family for 10 wonderful days, I don't know how to thank Yanet and her husband Ronaldo for their availability and kindness, we were welcomed as members of their family. The strength is definitely Yanet's excellent cooking, the service they offer where you can find breakfast, lunch, and dinner ready without the inconvenience of having to worry about it. Absolutely recommended, they are among the few truly prepared hosts I have ever met We'll be back !!!!

Very nice place and location Would go again Emilio very helpful

beautiful large casa right in the center of town! Rooftop view was great. Quick few minute walk to waterfront and city lookout point! Staff working were amazing. :)

If you are looking for absolute peace and tranquility in a beautiful private Cuba coast location this is your place. House and amenities outstanding. Beautiful garden with wood oven "Willy" , BBQ and super clean pool! Manager Jordi lives in house next door and together his wife are pretty much on call 24/7 so you don't have to worry about power, preparing the outside cooking, shopping or any local recommendations or other assistance for that matter! We stayed for 3 weeks so we ventured outside Nicaro hired a boat and did some fishing in Cayo Mambi, also with the help of local transport you can visit the National Park Cayo Saetia, the famous white beaches of Guardalavaca or if you want to stay local there is plenty of walking and horses can be arranged if you don't want to go on foot! Bit of advice - do ALL your food shopping except fruit & vegetables in Holguin / Santiago before you arrive. However Jordi goes to the town midweek if you run out or have forgotten something!

Reina and family made feel right at home. I felt welcomed and was treated with respect. An excellent atmosphere and I had alot of fun and laughs. Thank-you so much for everything.

Everything is good quality. Lilly and her staff are great. Dinners are available and are delicious but ask the price ahead of time. We would definitely stay there again. Lilly’s English is very good. Recommend!

I spent 5 nights at the casa, Ricardo's family is very welcoming, Ricardo is super nice and made sure I had a great vacation with my lover. We ate well and slept very well. The bathroom is very large with a large hot water shower and everything. Air conditioning and fan in the bedroom, a large fridge with freezer that allowed us to always have ice water for our day at the beach. Walking distance to the beautiful beach of Guardalavaca. Several restaurant options around the beach and on the beach as well. Most places only take cash so plan to have it in Canadian or pesos but have cash. I got caught having little cash and a credit card only. In short, for my part, I would return to Ricardo's at any time. I am delighted to have met him. He helped me with everything I wanted, even renting a car at the last minute.

The reason to go to Gibara is to meet Ana , her parents, her brother and daughter (in addition to being in a lovely small coastal town and using her bamboo bikes to explore the area). The family are wonderful hosts and there is a lot to do in the area (caves, beaches, national parks for hiking or biking). She and her brother can organize day trips. The town comes to life once a year for the film festival but it is a great home to use a base for exploring for a few days with a great guide. The home is comfortable and the AC in the bed rooms works well. The home is a restored old colonial house well located to reach the caves by walking and. the town squares. You will have great breakfast and can arrange other meals as wanted or needed. A place worth visiting and staying!!!

Kenya told me that when I come the first time I am a guest the second time I am a friend. I don't think I felt like a guest, just a friend. They are warm and discreet people. They can give you a lot of information, you just have to ask them. Their house is very clean, the terrace... I have no words. You have to go to it to understand. Excellent location, not 1 minute but 30 seconds to the beach. The shops are almost next to the beach. Kenya and Abelito are wonderful and are 10-star hosts and 10-star friends. I recommend you discover them by going to their house.
