Los jasmines is stuated a good distance outside Vinales but be put off. We booked ahead from Havana & chose it because it was the only place we could get into. Having arrived exhausted, hot & tired from Havana, I can only descibe this place as heaven on earth! The main hotel is a beautiful old colonial style building. You can either stay in there or in the 'cabanas' outside. The cabana's face the most amazing view I've ever seen looking down into the Vinales valley over the farmers fields, tobacco houses & palm trees. Although a little musty smelling(!) - nothing beats waking up there. The food is nothing to write home about but if you've got this far, you've no doubt become accustomed the the Cuban cuisine! The hotel runs a range of activities, we did the mountain trek which was a brilliant exprience & you learn loads about local life there. The lady who runs the tourist desk there was great & helped us loads with our onward journey.
Pool is a large, no frills but at least clean affair! Theme: HotelComparison: more expensive than average

It’s a very friendly family… and the price is one of the cheapest options you’ll find in Viñales.
If you don’t have anything booked in advance, don’t worry… every time a bus arrives, there are at least 15 or 20 casa owners offering their house. I paid only 10 CUC here, that’s why I recommend it… besides that, the family was cool… the room was alright, it had private restroom with hot water… pretty much the same all the other rooms have.
Just one very important advice… all the casas all over Cuba will try to convince you to eat at the house, some times it may be a good choice… but if they don’t tell you the price in advice, you’ll end up paying 8 CUC for a meal they bought in the market for 50 cents. The same with the beer the offer you at dinner… while you buy the same beer at any bar for 1 CUC, they may charge you 3 CUC. That’s a very usual way to get ripped off (it happened to me, ***ers!).

Stunning.
Location above the valley and the town provides the most spectacular views. Large swimming pool on the terrace. Main building and new wing painted pink with green shutters (all rooms in the new wing have balcony, superb views and away from the noise of the bar and occasional live music).
Rooms are clean, comfy, simply furnished with marble floors and cane furniture - the perfect size for 2 people. Staff very friendly and helpful.
Taking all that into account plus the price (includes breakfast), one of the best hotels I have ever stayed in. Theme: HotelPrice: US$40-80 » Currency ConverterComparison: less expensive than averageDirections: Overlooking the town of Vinales and the surrounding valley.

Staying at Casa Lucilo y Nirma was the highlight of our vacation in Cuba! We did a lot of travelling (we spent two months in Cuba and visited most of the attractions) and it was our favourite place to stay.
After leaving cold London, finding this family in one of the most beautiful places on earth was like a breath of fresh air. We still do miss the quiet evenings at their terrace smoking Cuban cigars and having Lucilo telling us stories about life in Cuba. Nirma and Nana, the cooks, should have a top place in the best cuisine guidebooks! Everyday they served a big typical Cuban meal and we could only eat half of it. We highly recommend to everyone travelling to Vinales to try a meal here - you do not have to stay with them, just give them a phone call.
They rent two rooms (one of them is quite new and not listed yet on their web site). The rooms are clean and confortable. Each room has two big beds, air conditioning and hot water 24-hours. Both rooms have own bathrooms and a common entrance to a beautiful garden.
They speak English and Lucilo can arrange everything for you: walking tours, horseback riding, bikes rental, accommodation in other parts of Cuba, salsa and Spanish lessons.
They can also pick you up at the bus station if you arrange this by email.
We are very much looking forward to visit them again, it was home from home in Cuba

2 airconditined rooms with private bathrooms, hot and cold showers, welcome juice and cigar, and has family close by with equally nice casa (friends stayed there). Possibly best food i had in cuba, great flat roof top with seating which has beautiful views of mountains, sat there one night watching brilliant lightning storm, smoking cigars and having a beer. Arranged brilliant and reasonable horseriding trip for a a group of us (sounded better than others experiences), got some good cigars, lobster was brilliant at night as was fish. all qute friendly and chatty (although more to girls than guys but not in bad way) but would recommend. keys to rooms and backdoor for at night as well. nice and centrally located as well.
