Casa Jean Pierre

My review: First of all I have to say that is my third time in this house where I have to say I feel like in my own house. The house is perfect, one room upstairs, my favourite, with its own and private terrace, and one downstairs, as good as the other, with its own small garden with trees and flowers. Inside the rooms everything you need to spend a comfortable time, shower, air conditioned, fan, etc, and a fridge outside the room where you can serve yourself as if you were at home, of course I recommend to ask for Jean Pierre to prepare the best mojitos I've ever tried and I have to say I've tried many and in many different places, even in Floridita they have to learn from him... But the best things for me are two, the warmth the whole family from kids to granpas make you feel, thanks for all ! again !! and what else ??? yes the food !!! yeah nothing to do with the rest, I love cooking and eating and I still remember what the french couple that was in the upstairs appartment during my stay (dowstairs)...they said: we have been in the best and more expensive restaurants in La Habana, we have spent a lot of money on them but how could we wonder that the best place to eat in Cuba was in Vinaless in Casa Jean Pierre, thats it !! nothing else to say. Thank you again for all you give that is much more than we pay. Good Luck !!!

Casa Jean Pierre

My review: We made the reservation at Casa Jean Pierre in Vinales through Cuba Junky after researching it on Trip Advisor. It turned out to be a great choice. Jean Pierre is warm, hospitable and a fabulous host. His fluency in English made our stay even more pleasant and interesting. We stayed there with one other couple while the third couple in our group stayed at another casa that was not nearly a nice or accommodating. The third couple were welcomed to dine with us after Jean Pierre had kindly checked with the other casa owner that is was alright with them. His service from the food - exceptional - to his helpfulness is arranging any and all details or our stay was first class. You can rest assured that anyone you reserve for at Casa Jean Pierre will be more than pleased with their sta! y there.

Casa specifics: Quiet, Fantastic hosts, Comfortable, Safe, Patio
Amenities: Private entrance, Airconditioning, Private bathroom, Laundry service, Balcony, Breakfast service, Dinner service, Queensize bed, Extra bed available, Bathroom with shower
How was your room?: There are two rooms at the casa and we had one while our friends had the other. We were pleased to find that they were quite equal. The upstairs one has a nice porch off the room but the downstairs has another sitting area in front of their room under the upstairs porch. Upstairs has a bit more breeze and a fan while the downstairs has a/c. Both rooms were immaculate with good size bathrooms and hot shower. We had free access to the fridge just outside the rooms. Both rooms are in a freestanding building next to the family home so Jean Pierre was nearby if we needed him but we had great privacy.
How was the food they offer?: Fabulous. Apparently, Jean Pierre used to be a professional chef and the food was some of the best we had in Cuba and certainly the best at our casa particulars. Breakfast included lots of fresh fruit, coffer, crepes, great omlettes or other eggs to orders. The dinners included platters of lobster - much more than six of us could eat even though we tried our best. The Cuban pork was tender, wonderfully seasoned and a true treat. Food is definitely a high point at Casa Jean Pierre.
Other services they offer: Jean Pierre and his family helped us with all details of our stay from a trip to the beach in a 1955 Chevy with a great driver to hikes around the area. He also made reservations for all of us at our next stop and recommendations for places to go and things to do in Vinales as well as other parts of the island. We were a group of three couples and, as he only had room for four of us, he took the other couple under his wing as well and helped them as if they had been staying with him.
Other comments: Loved it! Thanks and keep recommending this casa to others coming to Cuba

Even I reconfirmed my reservation at Casa Jean Pierre the night before by phone, at arrival Jean Pierre moved me to the much more basic casa particular of his mother.

Casa Jean Pierre

We stayed 3 nights at Casa Jean Pierre, and as a family of 5 took both rooms. it is a great place and Jean Pierre and his family are fantastic hosts. The upstairs room with it's own balcony quickly became the 'parents retreat'! The food here is the best we had in Cuba, reading the comments book Jean Pierre had huge expectations to full which he did each evening, he makes a mean mojito as well.
Jean Pierre had plenty of good advice on activities and sightseeing. The horse trekking is a must do as well as the beaches at Cayo Junita. There was great music at the pizza place in town as well.
Can't recommend Casa Jean Pierre highly enough.

Casa Jean Pierre Vinales

We stayed one night at Casa Jean Pierre in Vinales on 17 December 2010 and can strongly recommend it to other travellers. We were enroute from Havana to Maria la Gorda which is why we only stayed one night. Jean Pierre met us off the bus from Havana, chaperoned us back to his house and made us feel very welcome. He and his family are very charming. Their own house is next door to the guest casa.

Casa specifics: Quiet, Fantastic hosts, Comfortable, Hidden gem, Charming, Beautiful, Safe, Children in the house, Patio
Amenities: Private bathroom, Minibar, Balcony, Breakfast service, Dinner service
How was your room?: The upstairs room with two sizeable beds is beautiful with its own balcony and bathroom and views across the countryside. The downstairs room, also with two sizeable beds, is adequate, and leads off the patio in one direction and the eating area in another which is convenient. The rooms were extremely clean and sufficiently comfortable. However, I didn't have much luck with water in the shower.
How was the food they offer?: At short notice after our arrival Jean Pierre cooked a delicious omelette for our lunch accompanied by fresh salad and fruit. That evening he prepared a fabulous dinner consisting of bean soup followed by lobster and fish. For breakfast the following morning we had fresh fruit, toast and the best coffee we had anywhere in Cuba.
Other services they offer: Also on short notice, Jean Pierre organised for us to go on a horse-riding trek among the Vinales hills. He also found a cab to take us to our next destination.
Other comments: Jean Pierre is an extremely conscientious host and nothing is too much trouble for him in terms of his guests' comfort and enjoyment. He is also very interesting and knowledgeable and good company. We strongly recommend Casa Jean Pierre for visitors to Vinales.

We are very happy to met Jean Pierre. He ist very friendly and helpful in everything. He organized an fantastic horse-back safari in the Vinales National Park including a "how to make a cigar" demonstration. It was one of the highlights during our trip through cuba.
Perfect rooms, clean and tidy. Very good breakfast, tasty dinner (spectacular lobster "cuban style") and strong & delicately drinks.
Jean Pierre, we wish you good luck and a happy new year!!!

We stayed at Casa Jean Pierre for 3 days, the best days we had in Cuba. Friendliness, hospitality, great tour arrangements, just perfect for our needs. Plenty, very tasty food, the absolute best we had in Cuba. No need to go anywhere else to eat while staying in Vinales. Nice, clean and comfortable rooms, lovely balcony. Casa Jean Pierre more than met our expectations. A very recomendable place to stay. You should go to Vinales just to stay at Casa Jean Pierre and experience good cuban cooking, humor and hospitality.

Casa Jean Pierre

What can I say? Casa Jean Pierre is THE place to stay in Vinales. The place is packed with casas particulares, but none looked as attractive and well-kept as Jean Pierre's. His family's hospitality is second to none: the three days we spent as their guests were definitely a highlight of our trip. Jean Pierre's cooking was delicious (I am still raving about his delicious bean soup) and his cocktails the best we had in Cuba - I definitely missed his Cuba Libres once we left for Trinidad. He is very helpful in helping you organise your activities: he seems to know everyone! The horse-riding and beach trip he suggested were great entertainment, and he went out of his way to see that we had the most comfortable stay possible. And as I said, it's the whole family that is very accomodating ! and welcoming, not just him. The rooms (both of them) were very clean and it was great to spend the evening sitting on a rocking chair on the terrace smoking a cigar and drinking one of his cocktails. The private bathrooms were spotless, too, and cleaned daily. If we ever return to Cuba, we will definitely return. Thank you Jean Pierre for making it a memorable stay!

Casa Jean Pierre

Well what can I say about Jean Pierre other than he was fantastic. He speaks english very well, the room with private bathroom and entrance was very clean. It was also roomy and very comfortable, the bed was great. His food was excellent and it was always more than you could eat. There were always a number of choices. He made suggestions and arrangements for local excursions, I suggest you try the horseback riding in the valley it was the most beautiful thing I had ever seen. Don't worry about the horse as Jean Pierre explained to us it's an automatic horse for tourists. He also help us make arrangements for other casas in other places which was a great help, he also made suggestions for that too. Needless to say we were not disappointed. So my advice to you is to stay with Jean Pierre you will enjoy yourself, plus you get the added bonus of someone to help you make your stay in Cuba run smoothly.

Casa style: Quiet, Fantastic hosts, Comfertable, Cozy, Hidden gem, Roomy, Charming, Beautiful, Safe
Amenities: Private entrance, Private bathroom, Balcony, Garden,
How was your room?: The room was clean, comfortable, roomy and private. I would suggest the upstairs one that has the private balacony.

Other comments: Our stay with Jean Pierre was one of the highlights of our trip to Cuba.
