If you are reading this article then you are probably looking at options for your holidays. If you have picked Cuba among the huge number of options available in terms of tourist attractions then you are already half way through getting a once in a lifetime unique experience.

You probably know this already but it is never less important to highlight that Cuba is the largest of the Caribbean islands and have a wealth of options in terms of places that you can enjoy while visiting Cuba. There are places to please almost every demand in terms of tourist attractions.

If you are thinking to primarily rest following a hard lengthy period of work and at the same time looking for some interaction with the Cuban way of life then I would propose you to do a twin centre holiday. There are lots of alternatives and I will point out in this article which in my estimation are the most appealing ones.

Havana and Varadero: Perfect combination for those who are not interested in traveling long distances. There are only 157 kms from Havana to Varadero and that can be covered by taxi in less than 2 hours. Both cities have international airports so you can choose either to start your itinerary from. No need to mention in this article what Havana and Varadero have to offer I am sure there are plenty of articles devoted to each of them in the web. Regarding Varadero, lets just say that it is the most famous beach resort in Cuba and its beaches are among the top ten in the world.

Viales and Cayo Cayo Levisa: Both areas are located within Pinar del Rio Province. This suggestion is mainly for those who love to be in direct contact with nature and do not like to stay in huge spoiled all inclusive beach resorts. Pinar del Rio is famous for having the most picturesque landscapes of Cuba. It is also the land for the best tobacco in the world. Cayo Levisa it is a beach location only an hour if not less far from Viales Valley by taxi and to get to almost virgin island you need to get on a boat for about 20 minutes. There are only 42 rooms very basic but with all the facilities that you can expect within your room.

Havana and Guardalavaca: Another great combination. This one will allow you to explore both ends of Cuba. The east which can be explore using as a base the beach hotels of Guardalavaca is very famous for having a more Caribbean influence than Havana which is more Spanish so to say. Guardalavaca beaches are also famous for its coral reefs and the possibility to snorkel just few meters away from its shores. My favorite hotel here has to be Paradisus Rio de Oro a state of the art installation with all the luxuries you can expect from a 5 star hotel.

There are of course more options and if you are interested in knowing more about Cuba you can always get in touch. I love to share my experiences in Cuba with the readers
