A jewel of a casa!! The best B&B over all de Country

Perfectly located downtown, La Pergola was much bigger and more beautiful than I anticipated. Newly renovated colonial architecture and very well kept, it was much much better than a hotel. Our room was huge, comfortable and very clean. En-suite bathroom, hot water, air conditioning and mini fridge stocked with drinks.

Carlos, Carmen and their 2 teens were most gracious hosts, I felt like part of the family. They were super friendly, warm and accommodating, very helpful in planning our activities too! The food was the best I’ve eaten in Cuba, at a very reasonable price and there was plenty of it… Carmen is a fantastic cook! You MUST try her lobster tails when you go! Dinning “al fresco” accompanied by colourful birds singing in the indoor garden, was like our own special little paradise… quiet and peaceful.

The casa is located 1 block away from Boulevard "1889", a main shopping area, and a variety of cafés and restaurants. Only 5 mins walk to the gorgeous Parque Vidal where you can really watch the city come alive. In the park there is a statue of Marta Abreu, bordering the park is the Teatro de La Caridad, the Plaza del Mercado Central, the former City Hall and the Colonia Española de Santa Clara center of dance. Che Guevara’s memorial is a nice 20 mins walk away and El Tren Blindado about 10 mins walk. The airport is 20kms away, which cost 15 CUC by taxi.

La Pergola, the ONLY place to stay when in Santa Clara, you’ll love it! Please say hello from me.

Muchas gracias para todos Carlos y Carmen!! Besos y abrazos fríos de Canadá. Fue un placer conocido.
