Cuba dreams of vintage cars and a rooftop pool with killer city views

Dreaming of vintage cars, colorful streets, and a rooftop pool with killer city views? Havana was all that and more! 🏝️🚗 Here’s my tested must-see and do guide for a quick adventure through the Cuban capital. Top Spots to Visit in Havana 1. Free Walking Tour Havana (267 Agramonte, La Habana): Start your trip with this pay-what-you-wish walking tour, an unbeatable way to get the real Havana download from a local! Guides share hidden alleys, street art stories, and the best photo ops. Wear comfy shoes and bring cash for a well-deserved tip. 2. Estatua a José Martí (4JQR+2F5, La Habana): Pause here to soak in some Cuban history at this moving monument to the country’s most celebrated poet and independence hero. It’s a great spot for people-watching and photos, with local rhythm in the background. 3. Plaza de la Revolucion (Hotel Inglaterra, 416 P.º de Martí): You can’t miss this iconic square, the heart of Cuba’s political moments and home to that huge Che Guevara mural. Pro tip: come in the early morning or at sunset for less crowd and epic lighting. 4. Central Park (267 Agramonte): Havana’s social hub is alive at all hours—locals debating baseball, classic cars cruising by, and shaded benches for a breather. 5. Hotel Telegrafo (408 P.º de Martí): My stay here was a winner! Modern comfort in a gorgeous historic shell, amazing staff, a 24-hour rooftop pool with mojito-ready bar, and a perfect location for sightseeing walks. Havana How-To Getting Around: Most major sites are walkable from Hotel Telegrafo. For longer hops, hop in a classic car taxi—negotiate your price before you ride. Food: Try a Cuban sandwich or ropa vieja from nearby cafes, and hit the hotel’s rooftop for cocktails with a view. Money: Bring cash (USD or EUR)—credit cards aren’t widely accepted. Weather Tip: June is steamy! Light clothes, water, and sunscreen are musts. #havanadreaming #cubatravel #rooftopviews #historichotels #travelwithpride
