Casa Ridel y Claribel
My review: After our visit to the cosmopolitan Havana it was great to arrive in Vinales. We had booked casa Ridel y Claribel already in the Netherlands. From the moment we arrived at the casa it felt like home. It is a very sweet family and they help you with a lot of things. Ridel can arrange tours for you and his english is really good. Claribel and her mother Maria are top chefs in the kitchen. The food is better than many restaurants in Cuba! Try the shrimps. Ridel has als arranged two casas in other places for us and they were also excellent. Best of the casa is one of the most beautiful views in Cuba, from the rooftop of the casa. We enjoyed our three days stay at Ridel y Claribel.

Casa Ridel y Claribel
My review: Nous avons passé 4 nuits chez RIDEL Y CLARIBEL, la casa est au calme et à 5 min du bourg à pied.
La vue de la terrasse sur laquelle nous prenions petits déjeuners et repas du soir est grandiose tant pour le paysage que les couleurs.
Claribel nous a préparé d'excellents jus de fruits, et a cuisiné avec sa maman des repas variés et succulents.
Ridel a organisé les excursions à cheval , en taxi, à pied ,de façon à ce que nous puissions voir un maximum de belles choses dans la région .
Un excellent séjour chez des hôtes qui ont à coeur de rendre le séjour agréable

Casa Ridel & Claribel
My review: It's already a month ago, but still thinking a lot of our time in Vinales at the family of Ridel 7 claribel. Our stay at the family Ridel & Claribel was great. After a long drive we were warmly welcomed. Since it was already late in the afternoon, Ridel and his daughter were kind enough to give us a brief tour through Vinales, culminating with the ecofarm. During our stay, the family has ensured that we got the best stay: great dinners on the rooftop of the house with amazing views (the best food we had in Cuba!!), they arranged a very nice and good guide for a hike and gave us excellent tips for other casa's where we could reside during the rest of our journey. We will not soon forget the great hospitality, thank you!
Casa specifics: Quiet, Fantastic hosts, Elegant, Comfortable, Beautiful, Safe, Children in the house, Patio

Casa Ridel y Claribel
My review: Extremely nice casa with extremely nice casa-owners
Casa Particular is the way to stay in Cuba and if you want to stay in a really good one in Vinales, take Ridel and Claribel's! They are such a nice people and we enjoyed our staying there, couldn't feel more welcome. Their beautiful home (with the view from the roof terrace!) is in a perfect location, a little bit from the "center" but short walk to every where. Ridel is really nice and he can arrange anything (there are lot of things to do in Vinales) and Claribel and her mom Maria are the best cooks, the food was delicious!! :) We are thankful of this beautiful experience people letting us to stay in their home and being that friendly and heartfelt and we can easily recommend this Casa to everyone.
