Located a 4-5 minute walk from the main square, this casa contains a beautifully peaceful courtyard and large, spacious bedrooms. This was undoubtedly the most comfortable bed we stayed in on our trip.

Food was good and plentiful and our host was friendly (and English speaking for those that find that useful).

On a more general point, I would encourage you to do some casa research before leaving for Cuba. We found the Lonely Planet to be next to useless when trying to find accomodation: some places were no longer there; some, it seemed, had never been there. Use websites like this instead.

Also, despite warnings that Cuban banks will not accept debit cards, my Nationwide Visa card was happily accepted.

Anyhow, as I was saying: you'll love Trinidad, and you'll love this casa.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/21712 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/10332
Sol y Son - very nice comida criolla, in the courtyard of a Trinidad Colonial residence.

Estela - The best paladare in Trinidad, and the only place we ate at twice in Cuba. Brilliant home cooked style comida criolla, with huge portions in a beautiful setting.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/10332 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/8462 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/8462 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/8353 In Trinidad stay at Ruth's, she is very friendly gives you huge portions if you have dinner there.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/8353
