Imagine that you wake up in the warm Caribbean morning, feel the ray of sunshine on your cheeks and hear sweet son music outside the window and singing of a pregonero (town crier) passing down the street. You’re in Cuba in a typical Cuban casa particular (rental home). You might be living with a Cuban family or enjoying the entire house for yourself. Just after you wake up, you can have a typical breakfast on a terrace of your casa or you may just as well go down and have a coffee in a nearby merendero (outdoor bar) with locals. Buy some fresh fruits & veggies on puestecitos or carretillas de verduras (market stalls). Meet your Cuban hosts, their family and friends and feel that you truly belong there.

If you want to live close to the beach, there’s a rental beach house for you. If you want to live in the very city centre and feel the vibes of the typical centric neighbourhood, you can get yourself a private room with a view over the lively street. If you want to have it all for yourself, get an entire house for yourself.
