We all know these are difficult days and there is no much money left for holidays and leisure in our pockets. So we have to find cheap alternatives – either that or stay at home and don’t go any where. If you are thinking of going for Cuba Holidays then I am going to give you a hint on how to cut down on the cost.
You can find hotels for as cheap as $14.00 per person per night in Cuba. As I mentioned before there are not many of these hotels and because they are so cheap they are fully booked all year round. You can find more info on cheap hotels in Cuba on http://www.qassia.com/the-cheapest-hotels-in-havana.
There is another option available in Cuba for accommodation. Casas Particulares is the term used to call private rentals in Cuba. These Casas or houses however you prefer to call them rent 1 or 2 rooms for as little as $25.00 per room per night. If you are sharing the room with someone else then it works at $12 to $13.00 per person per night. It really does not get any cheaper than this in Cuba.
As you probably know Cuba is a communist country with very strict regulations when it comes to private business. The government has imposed a series of limitations to the landlords that some find a bit annoying.
Home owners in Cuba that rent their houses follow the government restrictions. The risk of loosing your property or your license is too high. It is very difficult to find a house her you can stay on your own but there are ways. Visit Private Villa Rentals in Cuba if you require further advice.
So what I am trying to say is that staying in Casas Particulares in Cuba is a good idea for cutting down the cost of your holidays to Cuba but is not for everybody. This type of accommodation is suitable for people that have no problem sharing a house with a Cuban family.
There is a way though to get to stay on a private house on your own without having to share with a Cuban family. There are few options available mainly in Havana. The problem is that you are not going to find landlords advertising their rentals on the web on an independent basis because it is illegal. In this case what you should do is to get in touch directly with them and negotiate the terms of your accommodation.
