Although we didn't stay at casa de Marilyn, Marilyn helped us out a lot! Our casa owner in Havana referred us to Marilyn, and she referred us to the casa of her friends since her own casa was booked. Our stay with her friends, Mario and Isabel, was lovely and we met Marilyn during our stay in Vinales. She speaks... More

My friend and I stayed at Marilyn's casa for three nights in April. We phoned the day before we arrived in Vinales and Marilyn came and met us at the Viazul bus. The house is lovely and clean and Marilyn is a really lovely host. She speaks fluent English and really gives an insight into life in Cuba. The food... More

My wife & I stayed 3 nights with Marilyn and Adel in April, excellent value, lovely room, mojitos on the porch watching the sun go down, excellent English, very helpful, not intrusive but if you want a chat about Cuba or life in general very friendly. Finally the food - great cooking in (as my wife put it) man-sized portions.

We absolutely loved our stay with Marilyn and Adel, and wish we had more than two nights there. Marilyn is wonderful! So friendly, helpful and accommodating, able to organise any activity you may want to try. She organised a day of horse-riding in the Valley for us at a few hour's notice, and a wonderful salsa lesson with her excellent... More

This beautiful casa is built to the highest standard. Fixtures and fittings are top quality and almost every wood surface is beautifully hand-carved by Adel. Marilyn is the perfect hostess. She speaks fluent English and has a lovely down to earth character. It was lovely chatting to her about all aspects of Cuba. The room and bathroom is very private... More

My husband and I are not B&B people, however, our stay in Marilyn and Adel's totally changed our view. We stayed in Marilyn and Adel's for 3 nights. It was the most wonderful days during our 13-day trip to Cuba. We were touched so deeply by the couple's hospitality and sincerity. We were treated like guests instead of clients, which... More

Lovely, clean casa with a beautiful view of the valley & mountains. We sat outside each evening watching the sun set over the mountains and had lovely dinners at the Casa (too much food!). The room is great, all the amenities, lots of fans, air conditioning, good bathroom. We had a great trip to a beach in Marilyn's friends Studebaker... More

We stayed at Casa Marilyn for three nights and for the fourth night Marilyn arranged a stay at another casa which like hers was faultless. Marilyn's was the best casa during our 2 week stay in Cuba. Firstly Marilyn's English is very good; secondly her family is absolutely lovely and all made us very welcome. Thirdly the place is spotless;... More

We spent 3 nights at Marilyn y Alberto. We got to know a lovely place, a lovely house and a lovely family. Marylin speaks English very well, we had great chats at night and she was extremely helpful in organizing various exciting programmes, like horse riding, visiting the tobacco fields, visiting nearby caves, all worth the try and gives you...
