Not sure why Cuba is being hailed as the next big thing / alternative to jamaica.
Crime is low in the country at the moment as it is a communist country, with a harsh punitive system to deter anyone from committing a crime.
Human rights violations in Cuba are just as prevalent , with objectors to the regime, being disposed of.
It is a beautiful country with beautiful people... But once the restrictions are lifted and capitalism permeates, it will be like everywhere else!
We stayed at the brisas guardalavca in a beautiful villa. The only AI where I've lost weight on holiday. The food is terrible and there is a lack of it due to the embargo. We lived off eggs and mashed potatoes yuk!
Cuba has to get its meat from other countries like Venezuela and is hampered by availability and reliability.
In Cuba, it's illegal to kill a cow, as its protected as a working animal.
You will not see the variety of food that you are used to in other countries you may have visited.
Immigration there won't turn a blind eye as the article suggests. All personnel at the airport are in the Cuban army...are very formal.. That includes check in, security and guides to the plane. When we went there were army officers at the bottom of the stairs to the plane, with their rifles out...very surreal.
Holguin has a VIP lounge in the airport that we used and was quite nice. Snacks very poor though.
It's worth a visit, for sure...but not sure why people think it will be a good
