If you are reading this article then you are probably looking at options for your holidays. If you have picked Cuba among the huge number of options available in terms of tourist attractions then you are already half way through getting a once in a lifetime unique experience.
There are not many places in the world that can offer what you can find in Cuba. Not only Cuba has one of the best beaches in the world but it also has a fantastic geography. Mountains, rivers, lakes, caves, valleys and of course the best beaches in word make its landscape a very enjoyable one. But what Cuba has that makes it really unique its culture, its history, its architecture and of course the fact that it is the only socialist country in Latin America.
If you are looking to mainly relax after a hard long period of work and at the same time let your self been invaded by the Cuban culture then I would suggest you do a twin centre holiday. There are many options and I will mention in this article which in my opinion are the most interesting ones.
Havana and Varadero: Perfect recipe for persons who are not attracted by the idea of having to travel long hours on the road. Located only 80 miles from Havana City, Varadero can be reached in less than 2 hours. Havana, well it will where you will be doing most of your sightseeing, exploring museums, soaking up the atmosphere of the real Cuba, having a drive in a very old American Car, enjoying a Mojito or tasting a nice cigar. Varadero instead will be the place to relax and enjoy its beaches and all inclusive facilities.
Viales and Cayo Cayo Levisa: Both areas are located within Pinar del Rio Province. This suggestion is mainly for those who love to be in direct contact with nature and do not like to stay in huge spoiled all inclusive beach resorts. Pinar del Rio is famous for having the most picturesque landscapes of Cuba. It is also the land for the best tobacco in the world. Cayo Levisa it is a beach location only an hour if not less far from Viales Valley by taxi and to get to almost virgin island you need to get on a boat for about 20 minutes. There are only 42 rooms very basic but with all the facilities that you can expect within your room.
Havana and Cayo Ensenachos: Cayo Ensenachos is located in the very center of the island on the north coast and it is a perfect hide away destination. Its hotel, the only one in this tiny island is by far the most luxurious hotel in a beach location in Cuba. To get there options are, you take a taxi for about 5 hours or you take a flight for 50 minutes both from Havana.
There are of course more options and if you are interested in knowing more about Cuba you can always get in touch. I love to share my experiences in Cuba with the readers
