Casa Andres Ruiz

My review: There are lots of houses for rent in Siboney. All are comfortable and the people are nice.

What makes Andrés' house special, apart from two nice, airconditioned rooms, with a fridge and a view of the sea, is that he is ecologically minded.
He literaly chopped his garden out of rock with his bare hands, and has created a little ecological paradise. Not wasting anything, and with time he has created fertile soil from compost, and has several organoponics with vegetables and spices and herbs.

He also has several animals in his garden, and with time wants to establish a small zoo. I have never seen a pig living under better conditions in Cuba. No smell, the pig has good space and is visibly happy. Andrés loves and respects his animals.

André taught me about the herbs and about honey from earth-bees.
Behind his house he has a roofed party area, where one can sit and relax in good company in the evenings. The house has a pleasant array of sculptures and art, that keeps the eyes entertained.
He and his wife are very pleasant, relaxed people with an easygoing friendliness.

I will definitely return there.

How was your room?: Clean, spacious, with a pleasant wind that keeps it cool even without the aircondition.

How was the food they offer?: Plenty and good.
