Stay was very nice. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Recommend their breakfast as it was very good. Location is close to all the tourist sites and parks (within walking distance). Parking on street in front of property, very safe. Room was large, with a fridge. Great views of the ocean and the hills ("Sleeping beauty". If you stay here you will know what I mean.). Staff spoke English. I spoke Spanish to improve my Spanish speaking. Definitely a must for a visit. Also mingle with the Cuban people for better understanding of their culture and life. They are a very happy and friendly people.

Bon accueil et la personne en charge nous attendait. Le plus de Villa Esmeralda c'est la vue imprenable des chambres sur la mer et le fort de Baracoa. Vraiment exceptionnel. Très bien placé pour les ballades en ville aux alentours.
