Monthly Rentals in Los Palacios

Very pleasant hostess!! Food excellent!!

The decision to stop in Soroa was a valuable enrichment. Virginia welcomed me warmly and we were able to communicate well. She lives alone, her dear sister next door - pure women's power:-) Unfortunately, her garden was quite devastated by the cyclone. She would certainly appreciate helping hands, volunteer 'gardeners' are welcome! I highly recommend breakfast and dinner, even a few drinks can be purchased from her. Soroa is a simple village, located on gently curved ridge. Perfect for getting down and to get to know Cuba authentically. It invites you for walks. The waterfall is a highlight! A horseback ride or bicycle as well as a visit to Las Terazzas, if possible, are recommended. Thank you for the pleasant stay and the plant science dear Virgina, all the best!

This was a lovely place to stay! It is beautifully situated and easy to get to the village centre on foot. Mariano was a great communicator and was very helpful, flexible and friendly. He organised a fantastic birdwatching tour with a local artist and his wife cooked us lovely breakfasts and arranged reservations for us at a great vegetarian place in the village (El Romero). The room and bathroom are spacious and the front balcony provides excellent views of the mountains. The natural swimming pools are nearby too. We’d recommend here for Las Terrazas!

Aliuskas place is a bit of heaven on earth. Soroa is a less touristy place so in my opinion, worth visiting. I engaged the services of a local guide Alex Diaz who taught me about the birds, plants, history of the region. Aliuska was able to offer me both breakfast and dinner, the dinner was the best food I ate in Cuba. Simple, many vegetables, perfect. Their casa is next to a one room school for grades k-5. So, if you are inclined I would ask her if she needs anything for the children. I brought powdered milk for an activity she was doing to make hot chocolate for them. The power is not on 100% so bring a phone charger and flashlight. Also, mosquito repellant. I would 1000% recommend Aliuska’s casa as a way to experience the beauty of Cuba. And I am sure that she can curate any type of experience you are looking for.
