La Mansion, Cuba

A magnificent model of a Florentine palace built in 1929, La Mansion is located in one of the most elegant and green residential neighbourhoods of historical Havana, which today hosts the most important diplomatic embassies. Guests of La Mansion also have free access to the Club Havanna, the former Biltmore Yacht und Country Club, with the only private beach in Havana is still a place where the Cuban Society meets-an ideal location for guests who wish to experience some nostalgic 1950s flair.

Inside the villa a large hall with precious wooden ceilings is finely decorated with frescos and an impressive stairway sided by forty six columns carved out of the most exquisite marbles leads up to four majestic ensuite double bedrooms and two singles which share one marble-inlaid bathroom. All of these are luxuriously decorated and extremely comfortable, equipped with television sets and air conditioning, and offering beautiful views onto the gardens.

La Mansion is only a 20 minutes drive from colonial Old Havana along the famous Quinta Avenida and the Malecon. An endless array of activities is on offer in Cuba's capital city, from a night at the legendary Tropicana Cabaret to a concert with former musicians of Buena Vista Social Club or a private salsa lesson and romantic candlelight dinner with violins on the terrace of your vill
