Luxury Cuba Holidays

If you crave paradise shores, mixed with a heady cocktail of Spanish charm, and incredible history then Cuba is the Caribbean island for you.  Cuba promises absolutely everything you would wish for from a luxury Caribbean holiday, with a few extra surprises and treats included.

FADED COLONIAL CHARM, PARADISE BEACHES, SALSA DANCING INTO THE NIGHT

The largest and perhaps the most intriguing island in the Caribbean, Cuba promises a getaway like no other.  An unforgettable experience that includes breath-taking beaches, a troubled yet fascinating history, with a unique culture and traditions which at times will make you feel as though you have stepped back in time to a forgotten land.

With aquamarine seas all around, and a coastline lined with powder-soft white sands Cuba is the epitome of the Caribbean dream.  Head to the peninsula destination of Varadero for some of the most incredible beaches in the Caribbean – 12 miles of them to be exact!  And each more idyllic than the last.  Varadero may be tucked away from the bustling culture of Havana but it easily makes up for it with year-round sunshine and endless luxurious resorts to enjoy delicious food and drink, and many opportunities to take advantage of the bathwater warm waters with non-motorised water sports or catamaran cruises to tiny paradise islands.  Couples, adult-only, groups, and families are all catered for here, and our team will help you select the perfect accommodation for your trip.

Another of Cuba’s utopian destinations are The Cayos, a cluster of tiny paradise islands circled by perfect shores and colourful coral reefs.  The Cayos are made for total relaxation, and they will not disappoint.  We recommend a visit to Cayo Coco to see the wonderful native flamingos that line the shallows.

No visit to Cuba is complete without visiting fascinating Havana.  A city bursting with old-time culture combined with modern architecture, friendly locals in their traditional dress and bustling street markets packed with local souvenirs – all set to the background rhythms of lively Salsa beats that will make you itch to join in.  The crumbling Colonial architecture and classic American cars that line the streets of old Havana will make you feel like you have momentarily stepped back to another time.  Pay a visit to Hemmingway Hotel with its rooftop bar where the legendary journalist is said to have invented the Mojito cocktail (try one for yourself!), and immerse yourself in Cuban history at the Museum of the Revolution.

Cuba will never fail to capture the imagination and with so much to explore and discover, our personal experience and knowledge of this wonderful island will be invaluable as we help you create your perfect holiday.
