Casa Lucilo Y Nirma
We loved this place! The whole family were so warm and welcoming - we really felt like part of the family. In fact, we didn't want to leave and wanted to extend our visit for another day but unfortunately the room was already reserved.
We stayed in four different casas during the vacation and this was definitely the best. Part of it was the physical set-up - having a separate little house in the garden with an ensuite bathroom, lots of windows and a private entrance around the side of the house so we didn't feel like we were disturbing the family. Also they have managed to strike the right balance between giving guests privacy and including them in the family activities.
Another great thing was the food! Every meal was different and they were all delicious and beautifully presented. And Nirma made us a wonderful lunch, compliments of the casa, on the day we left.
But the best part of the stay was how warm and welcoming Lucilo, Nirma, Nana, Yunior and Yune were. We are already planning when we can go back and see them again!
Casa style: Quiet, Fantastic hosts, Comfertable, Cozy, Hidden gem, Roomy, Charming, Safe

How was your room?: The room was big and comfortable with two double-beds and lots of window. The air-conditioning was great for night, but in the daytime, we opened up all the windows and it was delightful.
How was the food the offer?: The food was fabulous. We are vegetarian and were thrilled with the great selection of meals they cooked for us.

My bf and I loved our time in Vinales and especially at Lucilo y Nirma\'s casa. They really made us feel like part of the family and organsied everything for us - horseback riding, trip to the beach, hiking in Vinales and in one of the caves. And the food...! The food was amazing, Nirma is the best cook and we ate every meal of our three days there, we couldn\'t get enough! Chicken, pork, seafood, rice, beans, soups, salad...you can even buy your beer and mojitos there! We had such a good time with Lucilo y Nirma, that we were sad to leave.
