The other place I'd recommend would be FAC (fabrica del arte cubano) This place gets pack with civies and a few pro's and UTR's but mostly civies. Link below. Fridays and Saturdays are packed, don't know about other nights.

Any tips for a badoo user in Havana? They say it works well. I know Havana well, but would like to add BAdoo to repertoire if it really works.
Does it?
Any tips for a first time user? Is it only effective when in the ground in Cuba? Or also as preliminary research?

Posts: 610Any clubs for picking up girls??
I plan on going to Cuba in Jan. I was wondering if anyone with experience can tell me if there is a party scene where I can pick up girls. Pros or semi pros. Instead of picking up street walkers.

Posts: 10First Cuban trip
I just got back from a four-night trip to Havana on Monday. I was my first time in Cuba and I traveled solo direct through Miami. I do speak (adult learned and not perfect but good) Spanish.
I had a great time. I didn't find it that much more primitive third world than say Colombia. There were no lights on the streets and lots of huge potholes, smog and noise but there lots of great bars and restaurants. I've seen people here disparage the "tourist traps" like the Floridita and Bodeguita del Medio but I had a great time at those places. The drinks are excellent and great Cuban music. Both were Hemingway hangouts and are full of international tourists. Being an American myself I can say this tourist places where there are not many Americans are a lot less obnoxious LOL.
A quick comment to the question as to whether it would be easier to fly through a third country vs. Using the "support of the Cuban people" exemption and flying direct. The entire extent of the inquiry into my using that category of exemption was the American Airlines counter person asking which exemption I was flying under. It never came up again at any point in the traveling. I put together a minimal journal and had it with me, but no one ever asked. The only thing the US immigration person asked was whether I had any alcohol or tobacco products. On the Cuban side they looked at my passport, visa and health print out, didn't stamp anything and said welcome to Cuba. I think it's safe to say at least in my experience no one on either side gives a $hit that you are going to Cuba.
Another thing that comes up all the time is whether the casa Airbnb will allow visitors. I got one that was listed as "entire apartment for your use" and in the rules only said one guest at a time. I had no problem at all. The owner and the host person wasn't around and the neighbors didn't care. On Sunday night a girl had to step over some neighbors on the front step to come up and no one cared or was surprised at all.
The host set me up with a SIM card and took me to someone's house to change dollars at 255. I changed $600 and honestly it was too much. I couldn't find ways to spend that much in four days even including the girls.
Yea so the girls. Absolutely super high quality. Walking through parque central or san Rafael anytime after dark there are tons of super beautiful girls of all types. I did not see even one police person. I'm sure they are there but I didn't see them. The fact that it's so dark everywhere makes it easier. My experience was you can talk to them without a problem. On my second night a totally sweet little 18 yo approached me in parque central before I even got rolling. She already had her identification out LOL. She had a big unattractive friend who stayed back. Without me even asking she said $20 US. We sealed that with a DFK right there and just gave her my address and said stop by in an hour. Pretty much wifed up after that. Once I had her in the light she was almost flawless with only a couple of small tattoos and tiny bit of smoker's breath. She was my perfect right off the farm type. She didn't know how to handle herself so just treated me like any boyfriend. I have had black girls before but always sort of quickies never really got to luxuriate over one. Wow that skin was something I will remember. I brought some Victoria secrets things and that sent her into another level. Suddenly wanted photos and videos. She actually wanted to wear one of the cute little things home and I had to tell her she couldn't wear that on the street LOL. Needless to say I was a lot more generous than $20.
Yea it was a great trip.

So, that's just me, also, I don't think they'd require receipts. I think it's just their M. O. To scare / making it more challenging for people so they'd stay away from Cuba and starve the dollars that Cuba brings in for its economy. Make it as hard as possible and some people will choose to go elsewhere, I. E. Colombia, D.R. Etc.
Enjoy your trip and report when you come back.

Posts: 89Traveling to Cuba
Question question about getting into Cuba. If you fly from an airport outside of the USA on a separate ticket, using a foreign carrier, then how would US immigration officials ever even know that you visited Cuba, unless they notice an entry stamp in your passport?
I know that Cuba requires you to pay an entry voucher fee. But why would Cuba send info back to the US that one of their citizens is entering the country, when there's still hostility between the 2 governments and they cooperate on very little?
It seems to me like this is the easier route than coming up with one of the 13 permissible purposes, then risk being audited later, asking to provide receipts on where you stayed and spent your money.

But I never faced any issue as long as you don't create any trouble.
I lived in private apartments as well as in the house where the owner lives too.
The key is being polite and inform them you want to have fun with discrete. They will still ask for the carne to show but don't register them if you request.
I felt its safe to have the chica ID to be shown or taken picture by the owner for your own saftey.
I had 3 contacts casas. Two of them were given by the chicas themselves but ended up going with unknown apartment via airbnb due to the need of 3 bedrooms private high floor unit with balcony.
I gave hint before confirming the unit via airbnb chat and she did accepted that for showing the ID but won't be registering.
I never had any problem but the owner is bit nervous though when we got 3 chicas and we all are partying in the balcony where neighbours were watching.
Next day onwards I have limited to only one and she felt comfortable as I repeated the same chica.

I don't wanted to make a scene as my chic is also supporting her that it was unexpected and show her some generacity. Being poor.
I let it go as I don't wanted to argue or make her upset because of my friend's badluck.
