We spent two days at La Villa Sonada and it felt like We are at home the moment we arrived. Mandy and his staff welcomed us with open arms at the Villa. The rooms were spacious and nicely air-conditioned. The rooftop patio is an oasis in middle of Matanzaz and the home cooked dinner he served us we will not... More

What a great stop in Matanzas! I can heartily recommend La Villa Sonada to anyone who plans to be in Matanzas (as well as to those who might otherwise be passing through, it's worth a stop!). My experience with this casa and its proprietor, Mandy, began well before my arrival. I was concerned about bus availability to get to Havana... More

The proprietor Mandy was probably the best host I've ever had. It was like having a concierge and hotel operator in one. The level of service from him and the cleaning ladies and cooks was phenomenal. Breakfast would be on the table minutes from when you woke up and they would cater to pretty much your every craving. Mandy's knowledge... More

To couples from Norway stayed in Villa Sonada for 2 night i February. We met a warm hospitality and very good service in Villa Sonada. We took one day to Varadero to enjoy those beautiful beaches, but preferred to stay in Matanzas - an old city with a unique atmosphere. If you need a place to stay in Matanzas -... More

This was our second three-week visit to Cuba and we love beginning our trips there with a few days stay with Mandy and then finishing our vacation with a final night at Villa Sonada. Armando is an excellent host as his level of service is top notch and he can get just about anything done for you, whether it's arranging... More
