“Wonderful Casa”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 May 2013

We had a really good time at this case. The room is spacious and clean, with everything you can wish for. There is a small swimming pool and the owners are very helpfull with arranging excursions. Also the food was very tasteful.

“Wonderful Cuban hospitality”

We stayed 3 nights at Villa Cristal which made a peaceful antidote to Havana. Fabulous location which has views from the roof terrace of the nearby Mojotes hills in the Vinales valley. A visit to Cuba should definitely include a trip to this beautiful area, and Any and Francisco could not have been more helpful in suggesting how we make... More

The time we spent in Vinales was the best part of our trip in Cuba! The location is stunning and the family of Any, Francisco, Efrain and Flavia is so friendly and welcoming.

“Wonderful accommodation”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 April 2013

2 night stay - and we had wonderful meals here each night. Great accommodation - including the 'wiggle your toes in the pool' experience. Any also gets our 'best mojito in Cuba' award. Any's travel industry knowledge was also very helpful. You won't be disappointed here.

We spent two nights at Villa Crystal and our host Any was delightful. Since we were pressed for time, she calmly answered our questions the moment we entered the casa. Sadly the caves we wanted to visit were closed but we were given many alternative suggestions to complete our visit. The absolute highlight of staying at Villa Crystal was the... More

These people helped us with everything when we stayed in Vinales. We tried to book a room with them but they had no vacancies at the time so they recommended us a Casa which was just opposite of their home. We were contacting all the time for organising tours and also advices on Rum and cigars. They speak excellent English... More

We had booked a room at Villa Cristal with Francisco and Anita. We actually never got to stay there, because the owner of another casa met us at the bus station with our names on a sign, and we ended up going with her to the wrong casa. It turns out that our names had been given, probably sold, to... More
