What an amazing stay... We wouldn’t have such an incredible time in Havana if it wasn’t for Nene and his team. We literally felt like royalty in a palace. We love you Nene and will come back!

  The location is 5 star, the apartment is phenomenal! It’s in the heart of Old Havana and the its brand newly renovated with outstanding art! The beds were comfortable! The rooms were spacious and super fancy! We had private concierge who prepare amazing breakfast, clean the apartment and even recommended us where to go and what to do. Yari was the best concierge ever! She book us best seats to the local ballet and for Buena Vista Social Club show. Summary is I would definitely come back and I do recommend this apartment 100%!

  This unique space is truly exceptional. We felt like we were staying in a chic boutique or contemporary art museum. The exquisite design and decoration is like nothing we've ever seen in a private home. It really makes a statement. Staying here will make your visit to Havana really special. We especially appreciated the warmth and hospitality of Yari. She helped us in every way, suggesting places to visit, confirming reservations, communicating with drivers, responding quickly to any needs, and generally making us feel at home. Her breakfast fruit shakes are not to be missed! The private roof top is also a wonderful vantage point from which to gaze upon bustling Havana and just hang out to watch the sunset. The location is perfect for a first time visit, allowing you to explore all the major sights, restaurants and bars of Havana Vieja, and is an easy walk to Centro. As others have mentioned, the three flights of stairs can be daunting, but it really felt worth it once we reached the top floor. We will never forget this wonderful visit to Cuba, and our stay at this apartment helped to make it so memorable. If this fits in your budget, I wouldn't hesitate to book it!

  A trip to Cuba was already amazing but this place put the cherry right on top of our stay. Let's start with the Decour... omg... it literally took the words out of me and my boyfriends mouth is when we walked around the house. The art can have you kind of taken back, however from an artist perspective it was deep and beautiful. We only use the master bedroom with the personal bathroom and we absolutely loved it. It wasn't over the top(which we loved). The gold accents gave a luxurious feel but it was just enough of beautiful decor with the right amount of elegance for our Havana stay. We very much so enjoyed the picture books displaying the construction an art of this beautiful place and we were moved by such a thoughtful touches. I was so intrigued with the art I want to speak to the person who directed the whole idea
I can go on and on and on how I was intrigued by the art in this place.. however we must move along to the service we were greeted by Yari She was so kind and helpful.. every morning we wake up to a wonderful breakfast that she would lay out... We shared conversation and she is by far an amazing woman who is hard-working, educated and we were definitely honored to share our morning's in conversation with her about the culture of Cuba and "where to go" and "what to see". We adored you Yari! Cuba isn't the best for Internet connection, but Yari guaranteed that we had Wi-Fi cards when we needed them. We also had refreshments such as soda, wine, and waters. let me tell you how convenient this place was.. Everything we needed to go to experience was within walking distance... well... except the beach lol There were still a lot of affordable and authentic Cuban food spots around the area.. Also we were surrounded by lots of great happy hours for 1cuc mojito's.. we also enjoyed a lot of close ranged dance clubs that were no more than a nine minute walk! So much fun! This place is definitely going to be bookmarked as our fav home in Cuba! Thank you Marie!

  Nene is what makes Plaza Vieja 1912 so unbelievable. My mother, my cousin & I feel in love with Havana! The city is vibrant, and musical & beautiful... but we could have never experienced it the way we did if not for Nene! He was an incredible guide for these 4 days— it felt like we had known him for years & we left Cuba with a true friend. On my mother’s birthday he went around Havana to find her the best cake & handmade a beautiful sangria & arranged a special taxi to take us to dinner. He is so thoughtful & good at what he does! We will go back just for Nene. The owners made the best choice in hiring Nene. He has the heart & soul of Havana in him & will share it with anyone who wants to listen. Thank you for this unforgettable experience.

  Excellent as advertised, would come back in a heartbeat!

  We felt very confident there is no better place to stay in Havana. I cannot imagine any hotel or Airbnb being as perfect.

  The Casa is beautifully restored with a touch of whimsy and humor. Art and decor are thought provoking and insanely cool. Centrally located, you don’t have to walk far to find the Havana you came to see.

During our stay, the hospitality was amazing. Breakfast was lovely on the roof top patio each morning, and talking with Julio and Ariana about life in Cuba enriched our stay enormously. The experience was truly superb. Thank you!!!

  If I had to sum up my stay here in one word, that word would be perfection. Every single thing about our stay was PERFECT. And the most perfect element of our vacation in Cuba was Nene.

Because of him, we will stay here every single time we visit. A few friends are planning to visit, and I told them that they must book THIS airbnb.

*p.s. being served breakfast every morning on the private terrace was also perfectly PERFECT perfection. lol

  First of all, this place is way more beautiful than the pictures!!! My mom and I felt like princesses in our own personal castle here. Can you say private rooftop with your own view of the city skyline? What about a bathroom decorated in gold and bigger than a bedroom? The house looks like more than a house. It’s pretty much a museum where you are allowed to touch all of the art pieces. The place is huge and could fit up to three couples plus one if they want to sleep on the couch. Beautiful views of the city from the inside and outside of the house. Free WiFi once per day and breakfast is included. The water is warm and the rooms are air conditioned. The house is amazingly decorated. I’m crossing my fingers that the place is not already booked next year when I return to Cuba. Sometimes things aren’t too good to be true, they’re just true and better than pictured. We didn’t even mind the noise of the plaza outside. In fact, it added to the experience. Now, Yaris is a superwoman!!! She is attentive and kind and goes above and beyond. She has a warm spirit and will make you feel at home. She is an excellent chef and a chemical engineer! Superwoman and super mom! My mom and I would love to stay in touch with her until our return
