  • Colonial street in Trinidad, Cuba
  • My bed was very welcoming! Cuba has had a largely state-controlled economy since the Cuban Revolution in the 1950s, but one major exception has long been that ordinary Cubans are allowed to rent their property out to travelers. These "casas particulares" run the gamut from bed and breakfast style rooms in occupied homes to entire apartments, residences, and villas.

  • Our first meal at our casa particular was sooooo delicious! Renting a home in Cuba has the advantage of increasing your interaction with ordinary Cubans, which can go a long way towards justifying your Cuba travel to the U.S. State Department, which still stipulates that Americans can only visit the Caribbean island for the purposes of "people-to-people" cultural exchanges.
