Julio and Aurora have a lovely Casa, spacious, full of natural light and they offer a tasty breakfast in the morning. They are very welcoming into their home and always happy to help. The house has a balcony with a view of the bay. It's on the outskirts of Havana Vieja, but that didn't bother us as we enjoyed walking... More

I stayed with Julio and Aurora for two nights in Havana. Lovely place, clean rooms and bathrooms, super friendly owners and great location, less than 5 minutes walk from Plaza Vieja. Julio speaks good English. Also, when travelling to other cities in Cuba, Julio and Aurora made bookings to other good casas, so this is a great place where to... More

I was recommended this Casa by a friend of mine who was there a few years ago, and she was absolutely right in recommending it. Its super centrally located and you can walk to all the major attractions. We walked all around Old Havana and got to see everything we wanted. We were four girls, and even after dark, we... More

This casa is located in Old Havana, the balcony has nice views over the water and gets a nice breeze. Plaza Vieja is only a 5 minutes walk from the casa, the Cambio and bank is about ten minutes. Julio can organise taxis to the bus station and he also makes calls to other casas if you wish to travel.... More

2 mins from main areas and sights. Safe location though streets are unlit which would be a worry any where else. Julio and Aurora are so welcoming and friendly you feel at home straight away. Julio speaks english and Aurora just a little (If she mimes a chicken she is asking if you would like an egg for breakfast :-)... More

And the dinner just the most amazing we had during our whole stay on the island. If you look for a real experience, I can just recommend it. Perfectly situated in Habana... More

We arrived at Aurora & Julio's Casa Particular "by accident" - having booked another place - which was full when we arrived - Aurora's turned out to be an excellent surprise. Welcoming us to her house as if we were returning grandchildren, with hugs & kisses on arrival. The beautiful old house is nicely restored, and just 3 minutes walk... More

If you want a more real Cuban experience than a tourist hotel then stay here. We stayed here for three nights and Senor Julio and Senora Aurora could not have been more lovely. They were warm and attentive hosts and welcomed us into their home. Their home is a 1st floor apartment in old Havana 6 blocks south of the... More
