Helpful staff
We were given a nice welcome and had a comfortable room with sitting area. The location was good as it was close to the beaches & a few bars. Note that you need to bring soap, etc. Dinner & breakfast were served in the courtyard at the rear of the main building & food was plentiful & good. Unfortunately we only stayed overnight because shortly after arriving, we were told by the staff that the President had announced that all visitors to the country had to leave Cuba due to coronavirus. Our thanks to the staff for keeping us informed & being helpful – it was appreciated.

Awesome place and Jimmy is a star!
We stayed in the area to dive, learn about the historical elements and visit the swamp. The Hostal was great, and Jimmy was amazing. He was so friendly, engaging, professional, personable, helpful and general delight - thank you so much!! The room was clean, spacious and great, and the food was brilliant. Thank you and I would highly recommend this Casa/Hostal.
