If this is something you might be interested in, please let us know. We hope that you will be pleasantly surprised to find that ‘personalised’ doesn’t have to mean highly priced.

Remember in Cuba there are a few factors to consider that you probably don’t need to worry about back home. Although rare, we do on occasion suffer from power cuts and interruptions to water supplies. We do everything we can to minimise any impacts but be prepared to use water sparingly when requested. You should also note that the Caribbean does have a hurricane season. Cuba is very good at managing the risks but there are occasions when mandatory evacuations are enforced. Although improving all the time, please be aware that the internet will not be what you are used to at home and can also be intermittent.
