哈瓦那 · 整套民居 · 2室0床2.0卫 · 可住4人 · Casita Nostalgia the authentic experience w/ heart
Experience Havana like never before! This entire 2bed/2bath casita, located in the border of Vedado and Centro Havana, invites you to fall in love with the best of Cuba – past and present. At Casita Nostalgia, you'll live like a local with all the amenities of a VIP guest. The 1920s Spanish Architecture was meticulously restored by local artisans, maintaining the original structure and spacious 5m ceilings, and designing the space with pieces solely found in Havana, for a truly local experience! From the moment you arrive at Casita Nostalgia, the authenticity of Havana life beckons. Step off the street into your private entrance; continue up the stairs and the house opens up to breathtaking 16-foot ceilings, and an open layout with the kitchen, living area, interior courtyard and your own private roof. Open the doors to the balcony, and take in the sounds of the living, breathing neighborhood. (Drop the basket down when you hear the local sellers singing and bring it back up to enjoy fresh flowers, produce, and more!) Casita Nostalgia is made to make you feel like you are home, the kitchen is outfitted with anything you might need. The bedrooms are both separated from the living space, offering a bit more privacy, and each feature a comfortable Queen-size bed, fresh linens, and AC. Take a break in the hammocks while listening to an old 45 vinyl record or head up to the roof to sunbathe and enjoy views of Havana. The reading room on the roof is a perfect spot to unwind from the energetic live of the city. We want to make your stay as comfortable and easy as possible, and happily provide the following amenities to all of our guests: - Transportation to/from the airport in classic car (additional price) - Complimentary Cell Phone w/ local sim card for you to use during your stay - Complimentary concierge service (in English, Spanish, or French) for booking transportation/reservations, or to plan local experiences. - Dispenser with cold potable drinking water. Saving you from buying bottles of water on the street like most airbnbs - Air-conditioning in both bedrooms and ceiling fans on already breeze reading room on the roof. - WiFi included.
Wow, nous avons été époustouflés par la casa nostalgia. Vraiment un highlight de notre voyage. La maison est vraiment magnifique, bien rangée et chaque petit détail est pensé. Carlos est très réactif et très attentionné. Il est évident qu'il souhaite que les gens qui louent l'endroit se sentent bien et surtout, bien entourés de gens locaux. À cet égard, Janio, concierge, a organisé le taxi de l'aéroport etest venu nous souhaiter la bienvenue dès notre arrivée et nous a donné des conseils très utiles. Sympathique, il a été très aidant tout au long de notre séjour. Que dire de Gloria, qui est nous a attendue chaleureusement jusque vers minuit, avec le sourire, le soir de notre arrivée pour nous remettre les clés. Idem pour notre départ à 5h45 du matin. Elle est également une excellente cuisinière. Vous verrez qu'il est impossible de ne pas adorer cette femme merveilleuse! En somme, le Airbnb de Carlos n'est pas seulement un logement, c'est en soi une expérience! Nous recommandons à 1000%
We splurged and paid a bit more to stay at Casita Nostalgia but it was worth every penny! The home itself is beautiful and lovingly appointed. The hosts thought of everything. After traveling around Cuba for 2 weeks with no WIFI, occasional blackouts, and the need to purchase water and TP daily, we especially appreciated the use of the provided phone with cell service for mapping and traveling around the city. We also appreciated the stocked medicine cabinet (Imodium!) and the large filtered water cooler! These sounded like small things before visiting Cuba but we truly came to appreciate them. The neighborhood itself is truly off the tourist track, very walkable and safe. We loved buying bread “from the balcony” and listening to Carlos’ extensive collection of LP records 😊. Upon arrival, we were greeted by Janio and Gloria who kindly showed us around the home and answered all of questions. We have traveled the world and this will live on in our hearts as a favorite!!!
We absolutely loved our stay at this gorgeous Airbnb. It was stunningly beautiful with great style touches throughout. Getting info on Cuba before arrival can be challenging but Carlos answered all of our questions before the trip, which made travel stress free. Janio and Gloria were beyond kind and helpful, assisting us in everything we needed. This apartment is even prettier than in the photos and the location is perfect, easy walking to the Malecon through streets of beautiful old mansions, and truly cool restaurants and authentic interesting places away from the touristy hustle of Old Havana. The WiFi worked perfectly and was so helpful when we returned home each day, to check in and plan for the next days adventures. They even provided us with a Cuban cell phone! We loved napping in the hammock, sitting on the balcony and the gorgeous rooftop deck. We had the best stay at this airbnb and will definitely recommend it to friends and family who are coming to visit.
We LOVED this place!! Record players were a lovely touch and a huge hit with my kids. We found the neighborhood really inviting. Decor was fabulous!! Just a really cool place to stay.
We absolutely loved our stay at Carlos' casita. It's beautiful and authentic. The neighbourhood and the neighbours were so friendly, wonderful and welcoming. Gloria (the housekeeper) and Janio (the concierge) are absolute gems. Having Janio available to answer questions, give recommendations and organize taxis and tickets not only made our holiday seamless but also gave us insight into Cuban culture and every day life that we would not have experienced otherwise. Go to Cuba! The people, the art, culture and country are so beautiful. Thank you to Carlos, Janio and Gloria for our "holiday with heart!"
This is a very quiet traditional neighborhood with authenticity. You will not be harassed by sellers and will feel part of the community while still being block away from Malecon, University of Havana and major iconic hotels like Hotel Nacional and Habana Libre. The incredible mansion that serves as the Napoleon Museum is on the corner as well as the famous "Escalinata de la Universidad". Sellers aka "pregoneros" pass by singing the name of what they sell and allows you to connect with them by calling from the balcony to buy flowers, bread or any other goods they offer. There is also a farmers market in the corner park which will offer you a window into what everyday life really is in Cuba.
Havana is a very walkable and safe city for those who want to explore it and don't mind a little sweat. However our concierge can arrange any specific transport that you require even if you need help arranging transport to explore the depth of the island beyond Havana. The house cellphone also comes with usefuls apps including the cuban version of Uber call "La Nave" you can pay with cash to the driver and yes it looks exactly like Uber.
We do offer a pre arranged "Classic Old Car" pick up for Airport Arrivals at an additional price. Our driver will wait with a sign with your name on it making the arrival much smoother since he'll be in constant communication with the person waiting for you at the house. You also you didn't come to Cuba to ride a yellow cab did you?
Janio your concierge can show you convenient ways to exchange money.
自我介绍
Hola hola my name is Carlos Gonzalez I was born and raised in Cuba and came to New York to become an artist after my mother won the visa lottery. While being in the entertainment business for over 15 years reaching artistic goals like working on Steven Spielberg's West Side Story movie to originating Broadway shows such as Gloria Estefan's On Your Feet, and West Side Story revival I always stayed connected to my roots and my people in the island especially artists. After working my way up as an immigrant in the states I now have these two properties in Havana which I use to connect my cuban community to tourism. Both spaces "Bambu Penthouse" and "Casita Nostalgia" have been carefully curated to give you an authentic experience of Cuba while giving back to the community.
