Eine wunderbare Oase der Ruhe
Es war das wohl wunderbarste Casa auf unserer Kuba Rundreise. Eldys und seine Frau sind ganz herzliche Menschen, mit einem süßen kleinen Haus, direkt am Meer. Der Strand ist sehr schön, allerdings nicht zum Baden geeignet..sehr viel Seegraas. Trotzdem war es für uns ein phantastischer Ort, und wir hatten das wohl beste Essen auf unserer Reise.. die Spaghetti Lobster sind super Lecker

After some hectic days in Habana Casa Eldys was a great place to relax. If you are up for lazy days at the beach, beautiful sunrises, really nice hosts, a funny pet and great homemade food we would absolutly recommend coming here.

Prachtige plek aan het strand
Het huis ligt op het strand en dit is fantastisch. Het dorpje stelt niet veel voor, maar de locatie van het huis maakt dit goed. We hebben er heerlijk gegeten, ontbijt en diner. Het enige minpunt wat ons betreft is dat Eldys en zijn vrouw niet spraakzaam zijn. Alles wat we vroegen werd geregeld, maar een gewoon gezellig praatje zat er helaas niet in, wat we erg jammer vonden

Zona muy tranquila.
Situada en primera línea de playa, zona muy tranquila alejada de la parte mas ruidosa del pueblo.
Anfitriones muy amables y serviciales, dispuestos a ayudar en todo momento.
Desayunos increíbles sobre todo pensando en la escasez de alimentos que padece en este momento el pueblo cubano.
