Hey fellas. Cuban veteran here. Had my Cuban friend book me a house in Vedado for $40 USD per day but that stupid Cuban landlady gave it to another tourist today. She couldn't wait 6 more hours. I'the really appreciate if anyone has contact for a house in Havana. I'll write a detailed report when I get back next Sunday. Thanks.

Airbnb dot com works great when looking for casas and other accommodations in Cuba. I vouch for it.

Hi fellow mongers.
Where do you think is the easiest place in the carribeans or South america to have bareback sex with a cutie latina spinner? By easiest, I mean easy like in the Philippines or Madagascar for those who know those places.
Drop your recommendations please.

Where did you see a drama be 'productive ' in the 1st place? If you don't want drama on your platform, start aiming at people who starts it in the 1st place with their judgement and preferences,. Not the ones who respond to it because you, as admin, don't like the answer. Otherwise, you discriminate 'dramas' with your pseudo-sense of censorship. #judgejuryexecutioner#.
It used to be that La Rampa (Calle 23) was the hub of activity in Havana. What is the status now? Do the ladies still hang out there? Are the clubs open? Is La Zorra why el Cuervo open? How about El Gato Tuerto?
Thanks for any information you may have.

Thanks for any information you may have.La Rampa was dead, most clubs closed. No wandering girls. Police with a truck scaring people away. Even the cafe half way up was refurbished and gone upmarket. Years ago would be surrounded by girls, down each side road. Now dead. Nobody obvious. You'll have to go down the Malacon and start chatting to the locals, who may, or may not be interested.
But good luck anyway.

Ok folks. Last time I was there was in 2021 for 1 night and it was ok compared to when I was there in 2014. A lot of clubs were empty or with ugly girls. I went to Johnny Club, LM, El Encuentro, Casa De La Musica Galeano and Fabrica De Arte. The biggest disappointment was Fabrica because by watching YouTube videos of this place it looked like a candy shop for adults but what a letdown. Not even 1 girls looked at us (went with a wingman). I remember a long time ago I'the walk into a nightclub and chics would approach me and started flirting with me or went straight to the point. Dos Gardenias which was an amazing place has closed down. SalonRojo was going to be open on Thursday but it was a gay night.no thanks. A lot of Cubans are starving and the little money they have is used for food. The good thing is we got lucky and found a few good looking girls. We both had 5 girls in 7 nights. We stayed at an AI in Miramar and taxis went for 3000 to 4000 pesos between our hotel which was near the Russian embassy and Capitolio. We would take the girls to random homes they knew and the casa owner wanted $20 per room for about an hour. 2 were amazing. 2 were ok and one was literally a mattress in an old apartment near san rafael street. Chicks went for $50 usd or 16000-17000 pesos. Food was pretty good at LOS Nardos and fairly priced. Thanks to whoever mentioned it. It's on 3rd floor across the capitolio. Still it was a good vacation but it is time to go elsewhere. Cuba USED to be amazing. Not anymore.

The good thing about traveling to Cuba, having connections and doing research is that you know when someone is trying to rip you off for being a foreigner.

No way. We fuck the $50 girl's for $20 when in Havana. Research is very important.

Come on man! $20 USD is about 7000 CUP. Some will line up for that. It doesn't have to be average looks either. It can be better than average. I find that Simps will pay inflated prices for girls because they are not even used to getting good looking girls back home in the first place. I think that 6000-10000 CUP is the sweet spot. Some will go for 10000 CUP all day. The problem is that guys will go with the first thing they are attracted to and not shop around for something even hotter. Talent is everywhere if you just open your eyes and look. Also, closed mouths don't get fed.

10 days ago when I was in Havana, Cuba I was getting 330 CUP for $1 USD. I've heard it as high as 340 CUP /1 USD. It's not hard to do. People are all over exchanging money. Request Cuban peso bills of larger denomination (200,500 and 1000) to avoid too much change and counterfeits.
I have now moved on to Colombia and enjoying life. I took a direct flight from Havana straight to Bogota. From there you can catch a flight to any major point in Colombia.I'm confused because Google shows the exchange rate as 1.00 US Dollar = 23.988667 Cuban Pesos. What's going on?
I'm confused because Google shows the exchange rate as 1.00 US Dollar = 23.988667 Cuban Pesos. What's going on?That's the bank rate. That's what you'd get at a Cuban bank or official exchange. In Cuba, there's also a street rate. Someone here (sorry, I can't remember who) posted the following link to find the daily street rate.
https://eltoque.com/tasas-de-cambio-de-moneda-en-cuba-hoy
Just landed last night, checked el Toque, said 345 usd.
Landlord offering 315.
Getting some other contact to see if better rate is available.
Will update in case I hear something different.
Anyone in la Habana visiting now?
Want to meet up and get a beer and exchange some info.
Let me know.

Want to meet up and get a beer and exchange some info..Check out the Telegram trick that I detailed about in my "Day 1" post not too long ago. The name of the Havana one is "Compras why Ventas De USD". Best rates hands down and a lot of them will deliver to you. I would tell you to go to Papi Rey (they consistently give 5 pesos over whatever is on El Toque) but they only have 100 and 200 peso bills and I'm sure you don't enjoy walking around with bricks of cash on you LOL.
Best,
King Santo.
Just a follow up on my previous post.
Tomorrow I'll be able to get 345 to 1 USD, thru an old contact.
Noticed most restaurants, hosts etc offering 310 to 315
I contacted a trusted contact and tomorrow will be able to get 345 CUP per 1 USD
My take, that's what a poor economic situation entails, most everyone trying to make a buc, In this case a few extra Cuban pesos, jjjj

Mondo.When I went last year it was around 310 to 320. Definitely let us know if you can get 345. Their economy just keeps getting worse.

I landed in Cuba yesterday. This is my third time in Cuba, so I'm definitely coming in aware of how to land a woman here. Like previous times, I utilized Badoo a week prior and gathered a bunch of contacts prior to arriving. I'll go back and forth between pro and non-pro. I don't ever play the street game because the street women are not of great quality, in my opinion.
On the first day, I reached out to a 19-year-old petite cutie I met through another girl I was chatting with on Badoo. She arrived pretty in no time, and she was a stunner in person. I told myself I wouldn't ever return to Cuba, but Cubans are so good in bed, haha, and she reminded me of that! I did the deed and told her I'd see her again before I left. The cost was $50. I utilize condoms since the healthcare system is a disaster here, these woman aren't getting check.
I took a nap afterward since I was tired from the plane flight. I woke up in the evening to multiple women reaching out to confirm if I had arrived; I chose the best-looking one, another petite 20-year-old with some petite knockers on. Money was it discussed, but she gave me pro vibes. After a quick dinner with her, I invited her back to my place and negotiated a price: $40, plus another 20 since I was in the moment she allowed me to finish on her face.
Second day. I set up a morning meeting with a 26-year-old. She had a kid, but she still met my standards, and I'm glad I chose her to meet with me. She still had a great body and put in a great performance. Again $50 dollars.
I explored the city a bit afterward. The food is surprisingly better than the first two times I came, LOL. It's still not great, though. Tonight plans are is a dinner date with a 22-year-old. She's definitely a non-pro, and we plan to go dancing afterward.
Hey, were you able to close the deal at 345 per dollar? Care to share a contact?1st time got 345 to 1.
Just got back a couple of hours ago after exchanging another 100 USD.
Did not counted it until I got back to my place.
Turns out this time I got 320 to 1 USD.
Will not make the same mistake next time, jjj.

Hi Mondo,
Badoo has a strange algorithm. Sometimes I get matches with attractive women, while other times I match with those who aren't as appealing. This is why I start swiping a week in advance to gather as many matches as possible. You might want to try adjusting your distance and age settings as well. I usually get a tons of profiles.
I have to swipe quite a bit to find the type of women I'm interested in. Don't expect every girl to responds, its essentially a volume game. This time around, most of the women I matched with are seeking money for time, but I occasionally find a diamond in the rough—a normal woman who wants to break out of her routine and is excited to explore the city with me. Best of luck!
The second date on night two with 22 years is definitely a diamond in the rough. Doesn't smoke or have tattoos, former dancer so her body is really tight and she is extremely flexible. Money was never discussed. Ended up going back to my place after dinner and I got no sleep because she had do much stamina haha. Made plans with her tonight again, she is aware that I'm not looking for anything serious and she is fine with that.
I have a couple more girls who want to see, but as the days go by I'm definitely losing contacts since some of the women are upset that I haven't reached out to them to spend time together. However, I don't mind repeat visits.

Avoid anybody that is trying to exchange anything under 200 peso bills. The preference should be a good combination of 1000,500 and 200 peso bills. Anything less than that and they can go kick rocks. Know what you are getting beforehand. Don't make that rookie mistake.

I've been reading all the reviews and I'm very excited. I'm got the badoo and I'm talking with couple girls, I was wondering and thinking to stay with girl full time with me during my stay. What do you guys think?

What do you guys think?If your plan is to ask one of these Badoo girls to stay with you for a week, then that's a horrible idea. You don't know if those pics are 2 years old, if their attitude is shit, if you'll even get along. Just don't do it. Meet them for drinks or have dinner with them, like a date if you're going for the whole GFE thing. But don't lock yourself down for no good reason.
Don't ever forget that you don't know these girls. Don't ever leave them in your room alone. Asking a girl that you have never actually physically met to stay with you seems like you're just looking for trouble.

Have to agree 💯 % to everything EMode pointed out in his reply.
Unless you find the diamond in the rough, which would be equivalent to hitting a jackpot in Vegas on your first pull.
So, enjoy your trip and report back.

Soon as you're snoozin she can ransack whatever she can carry and sneak out in the night. Especially all your cash and if you are American you can't just go out and get more. You'll be screwed.

Drop your recommendations please.I had success in Colombia but I do not recommend going alone with the scoping / drugging problem. DO NOT drink with those girls.
Good intel on here boys. Thanks for everyone who has posted. Cuba is in a terrible place. I cannot believe how negligent this government is. I was at a hotel where they don't cut the power, but moved to an airbnb near the Malecon, where they do cut the power for 5 - 7 hours a day. It's a huge buzz kill and you can't charge or do recon, but it is an authentic experience.
If you have an eSIM phone and get a digital eSIM for Cuba it doesn't work well. You got to go old school and get an actually SIM card FYI.
I want to flag a "pimp" named Andres (lean black dude about 5' 10", beige blazer) who "works" in Avenida de Italia in front of Casa de la Musica, 212 bar and V&S club.
Last night I pulled up in a taxi and he tried to open my door, I had to count an unGodly amount of cash because of the hyper inflation so I told the taxi to keep the doors locked.
When you go out at night you should bring some sort of bag. My pockets were stuffed to the brim with pesos and cigs. And when you pay for stuff trying to keep low bills folded together.
So you aren't whipping out your wad.
When I got out of the taxi he remembered me from another spot he saw me, which was strange, he was nice at first and was trying to help, but then proceeded to follow me around for the next hour. NOTE to all mongers / foreigners, whenever anyone talks to you they just want something, no matter how nice and friendly, the situation is so bad here people will try to engage in the Cuban way which seems genuine but then it always leads to asking for money. It's different here than other 3rd world countries I've traveled to.
This dude would not leave me alone, he kept trying to tell me he had girls for me and an apartment and a taxi. V&S was dead at 11 pm, so when I went in and out he was still there. Outside there were a few working girls and he annoyingly tried to make the intro when I was fine doing it on my own. I saw one I liked but didn't want to pounce yet and wanted to see if V&S was going to get bumpin. So I walked over toward old havana on boulevard de San Rafael, but he kept pointing girls out to me, and strutting around like he owned the place, and this entire calle was packed with dreary locals and if you are put together at all you will stand out. This dude drew way too much attention to me, and no hubris, but I already stand out.
He would not leave me alone, he kept on about his 'girls'. I'm seasoned in this game and did not need this guys services, which I finally told him and asked him to leave him alone. But there's no where to hide or dip into because most places were closing up.
I walked back over to V&S which was still dead with some locals waiting outside, at 11:30 pm. So I went over to 212 which was completely dead not a person in the 3 story building. I told him I wanted to go into 212 alone.
15 min later he came in to 212 and tried talking to me. I told him I was going home and didn't need his services. Then outside I run into the girl I liked and I start talking to her. My Spanish is rusty, so again he interjects and starts arranging a taxi. And I just asked him point blank what his value is and again that I didn't need his services. He told this is his 'area' and he charges $50 USD for the girl, but then I got to pay the girl too, lmao, and the girl gave me a look that she did not know him.
By this time everyone is looking because when a business deal is going down, everyone wants a fucking piece. Finally I was like dude go away and I gave him $20 USD, hopped into a taxi that he arranged, where the guy wanted another $20 USD, so I left that taxi and went to another one with the girl, told this taxi 2500 pesos, and now the whole calle is watching.
This dude Andres asks me for cigarettes and I told him no and tore out of there. The experience with the girl was amazing, passionate sex, chill vibes, we drank some beers and talked.
I gave her $100 USD because this dude Andres told her I would. She was so pleasant I didn't care and gave her the dough. I know it's $40 over market rate, but it is what it is, these people are struggling and I try to do my part. Supposedly he's going to try to get a commission from her as well, which pisses me off, because he's a nobody and I already gave him $20.
I respect the game, if a pimp as girls then cool, but this dude is not a pimp, lmao, he's just a desperate street hustler. And I know it goes against the code to pay him anything but again I feel bad for these people. How desperate do you have to be to follow a foreigner around for an hour to get $20 USD? I can afford $20 USD and I wasn't about to throw down with this guy because it's not worth my time.
So yeah I just want to flag this guy, he's supper aggressive and sad and annoying.
My advice is do not engage with locals right now, it will only lead to them asking for money, and then you got to whip out wads of cash in public. If you are bringing USD, bring $5, $10's and $20's.
This country is in such dire straits that even crime is up in an historically low crime country.
Over & Out.

I can afford $20 USD and I wasn't about to throw down with this guy because it's not worth my time.
So yeah I just want to flag this guy, he's supper aggressive and sad and annoying.
My advice is do not engage with locals right now, it will only lead to them asking for money, and then you got to whip out wads of cash in public. If you are bringing USD, bring $5, $10's and $20's.
This country is in such dire straits that even crime is up in an historically low crime country.
Over & Out.Hey, sorry to hear about this hustler experience.
Your M. O. When someone uses this approach with you is to stand your ground and politely tell him / her to fuck off.
They're playing on your tourist fear, and they're masters at doing this, unless you stand your ground.
And I know 20 Usd isn't a big deal for you and me but for him it's a lot of money, so spending an hour following you is a no-brainer in his book.
The way to go getting around is using an app called la nave. It works like Uber and you see the cost before hand taking the ride. You do need a Cuban sim card to be able to register and start using it.
My advice if you're here long enough is to walk into an ETECSA office and have one of the gals there install it for you and afterwards tip her a couple of bucks.
At least you got laid and enjoyed it.
One last thing, the places around 1st and 70 in Miramar have lots of action and it's pretty safe. Taxi fare is prolly around 12 usd from your location each way.
Also, to change USD to cup, walking into most small businesses and asking what their exchange rate is, most will quote today 330, which I don't mind since it's a lot safer than going for the street rate of 340. And, if you go this route B4 doing the transaction ask for large bills ONLY, meaning, mostly 500 & 1000 notes, maybe a few 200's

Some people don't know how to operate in Cuba. Any seasoned Vet should know how to move even on a global scale. I guess for some people, intimidation is a Mother Fucker!
I gave her $100 USD because this dude Andres told her I would. She was so pleasant I didn't care and gave her the dough. I know it's $40 over market rate, but it is what it is, these people are struggling and I try to do my part. Supposedly he's going to try to get a commission from her as well, which pisses me off, because he's a nobody and I already gave him $20.

I can afford $20 USD and I wasn't about to throw down with this guy because it's not worth my time..Man they got you good LOL. Both of them; hell even the taxi drivers got off on you. I don't want to sound condescending because at the end of the day. You're happy with your experience and that's what matters. Here are a few tips I would give you:
1. If you have a lot of small bills with you, keep them bundled in pre-counted stacks. This avoids the need to count anything in public.
2. La Nave. Their version of Uber. It keeps you from needing to rely on anyone for a ride home. It's pricier than a normal taxi but the fact that you don't need to negotiate or explain where you're going makes it well worth the extra pesos.
3. You've got to negotiate a price upfront with these girls. Never ask for the price after. You're asking to get ripped off.
4. Tell people like this "Andre" guy to just fuck off and that you have no money to give him from the jump. $20 might seem like nothing to you, but you just rewarded him with a month's salary for following you around. That's how he's going to see it.
I hope the rest of your trip is a peaceful one and that you're enjoying your time.
Best,
KingSanto.

I've been considering going for a long time, but I've always held back because of all the stories about Cuba being so run down, with food scarcity issues, poor internet / electricity, and such. Also of the 20 or so times I've visited central america and the caribbean, I've ended up getting sick from eating / drinking something accidentally. I have a very weak stomach that gets upset pretty easily.
I read online that you can preload with probiotics before the trip to help with this. Is this true or just a load of BS?

Wow!Oh shoot, I meant to say of the 20 times, 10 of them I've gotten sick. So 50% batting rate. I'd love to find a way to lower that percentage since then that makes vacationing there actually a terrible gamble, but again, not sure this probiotic stuff actually works or if its just BS. Or maybe if I keep going and getting sick, it will train my stomach to be stronger haha.

I have a very weak stomach that gets upset pretty easily.If you would like worse, go to Haiti. I have been there and got the heck out of there as soon as I could.
I came back last week just before the whole electrical system went down, lucky me, jjjj.
Here's what the blackouts means.
I stayed by the Malecon on the Vedado section in la Habana.
Everyday they have programmed blackouts, in my area it's for 2 hours. Usually around 2 pm till around 5 pm. Sometimes in the mornings around 10 or 11 am, again for 2+ hours.
For those of you not familiar with the going on nowadays, if you have USD or Euros you're good to go and most everything is available.
As someone here mentioned, Badoo works but you need to do this a week before heading down. I downloaded it in la Habana and didn't have enough time to hook up as most chicas are slow to respond or sometimes are not online enough.
Most of the action (other than the clubs) nowadays is the Old Habana near the prado, hotel Inglaterra area and San Rafael street. So walking a few blocks from the Inglaterra hotel on San Rafael should bring results.
Also, as I've mentioned before the joints by the beach near 70th street and 1st ave in Miramar should also bring about plenty of rewards. This is for night mongering as there's no action in the daytime.
There are about 5 or 6 joints (2 stories high) close to each other and playing loud music (bring your earplugs).
As far as paladares, highly recommend Casa Mia Paladar, located at Calle 1 ra, #103, e / C and D, Vedado. You can google it for directions.
One of the must have is off line maps, I downloaded it b4 leaving here and it works great (Google maps) download wherever you'll be and no need for internet!
1st time there lights went out (around 8 pm) they have a generator so it took less than 2 minutes to get the lights back on. Excellent food, cost $$ to $$$.
Prolly forgetting something, hope this helps some of you with the going on now in la Habana.
Mondo.
ps, for the guy below with the weak stomach, take Pepto Bismol tablets. I usually get loose stools the 1st day and last for a day, gone by the 2nd day.

Here is some free advice for the men out there. Learn how to cook. It always seems crazy to me that so many men out there don't have basic cooking skills, which directly equates to your survival skills. Don't get me wrong I can understand the argument that you are on vacation and don't want to cook. But what I definitely don't understand is telling yourself that you are forced to eat trash because you are not resourceful. If your treat Cuba like a camping trip and let go off your expectations then you will have fun. If you are a foodie like me and expect to find good food in Cuba then you will be sorely disappointed. If you are only going for a couple of days then put together a grocery list of stuff to bring with you and get a spot with an kitchen. You can bring frozen meat, minute rice packets, travel size container olive oil, pre-cooked bacon, bread, chocolate bars, etc. Then when you arrive at your casa you can buy local eggs and produce. After that you can afford to be selective in what you choose to eat from the locals as long as you feel comfortable with the sanitation.
Many of us are fortunate enough to live in countries where you can find virtually any food that you need for your dietary / storage needs. Cuba is an amazing opportunity as long as you are not going for the food.

Any advice on other locations then, where my stomach is at a lower risk? I'm in good shape otherwise, don't mind discomfort in other manners, but nothing ruins a vacation like having to sit on the toilet all day. Issue is I'd like to stay within a relatively short flight of the east coast USA, so I don't really want to go to Asia or anything. And I don't want it to be too expensive, since then I don't really see the point of going on vacation when I can just pay the same rates and go to somewhere in the USA without the hassle.
Perhaps the answer is there is no place like this? But hopefully someone here has some ideas. For example I was thinking maybe PR, but I hear there's no hobby scene over there at all, and the everything costs almost as much as mainland USA anyways.

But the water there is also undrinkable if you're a gringo. But the food is first rate and safe in the nice restaurants in big cities. Of course you'll pay like 4 x what Cuba is but it's still cheap by American standards.
For better or worse, Cuba is just stuck firmly in the third world. Mexico is by many accounts a first world country.
I can only 3rd the comments by the prior 2 posters to say that no one fucks like the Cuban girls. At least not in my experience.
The Medellin girls, and the Venezolanas in Colombia, do an amazing job as well, but for pure sexual passion and performance, Cubanas reign supreme for me!

...Mexico is by many accounts a first world country.Let's say 1. 8 or 2. 1. If Switzerland, Germany, Denmark, etc are 1st world. (US is 1. 3).

For better or worse, Cuba is just stuck firmly in the third world. Mexico is by many accounts a first world country.Been to tijuana Zona Norte a few times as well and the food is definitely first world quality. Which makes sense since we import so much of our food from there. Just buy bottled water for cheap anywhere you travel. I never been to Europe because I can't stand a long plane ride. My 3 favorite destinations for proximity and ease of mongering would be Mexico, DR, Cuba. I would add Medellin, but only as honorable mention due to distance and danger factor. I prefer to travel to places that have that X factor as well. In my experience so far:
DR has the best beaches / seafood (when you want to actually walk from your casa to the beach).
Cuba has the best sex (the girls fuck raw and primal and will do there best to give you the best fuck of your life. If you see an attractive woman on the street all you have to talk to her).
Mexico has the best food culture (tacos, fast food, anything you want. Your favorite American restaurant probably has Mexican cooks working in the back).
This is great advice and I always brings some of my favs with me and also let the chicas cook and let them take extras home. Sadly many of the men won't get this as they come from places where masculinity is looked down upon and the agenda is to feminize men and make it normal for them to change their gender. Some of these guys don't even know how to boil water let alone try to cook something.The girls will definitely raid your fridge before they leave LOL. I just keep sodas and cervesas for them. But As sexy as it is to watch a woman in the kitchen cooking for me I prefer to always do my own cooking. To me I think it shows the girl that if her sex game ain't right then she don't really have much to add to your life:-the. I was born in Jamaican and didn't move to America till I was like 8 or 9. They teach jamaican boys at a young age that if you can't cook and look after yourself then you are worthless. We learn that true masculinity is not needing a woman for anything but sex. I would dare anyone to go to Jamaica and say the men there are not masculine. If anything we probably toxically masculine LOL.

There are many normal travelers that go to Cuba and have a good time. Especially Canadian travelers and you can find somewhat comfort / luxury. But I do overall agree that you will eventually one way or the other run into discomfort. Especially if you are expecting a Mexico, Colombia or DR. The airbnb I had was fly as hell and had good modern amenities but outside was a bit rough. But I gained a strong immunity traveling to different developing countries and I've seen WORSE than Havana. Talking Cap Haitien, Haiti and Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. But overall agreed.

The problem I have though is that the girls there see so much traffic that they fuck you lazy like most working girls do that do it 9-5.

I have never had a problem with water because bottled purified water is readily available in most places. I even cook with it. Guys need to be smart about what they are doing.

However have you been there lately ifso how is the atmosphere facing food shortages, electricty and mongering now?

Hi Nice comments and I agree Cuba is Cuba!
However have you been there lately ifso how is the atmosphere facing food shortages, electricty and mongering now?.I've only visited Cuba one time so far and that was early January. From what I could see there weren't many tourists. I believe there has been a decline in tourism lately for them, less cruise ships etc. That decrease coupled with the increasing value of the USD vs the CUP means more demand for the USD / foreign currency- which is monger paradise. It's definitely a buyers market all you need to bring is your USD and your confidence. Open your mouth and say what you want because everything is for sale. The food shortages and electricity issues have plagued Cuba for decades and I can't really say if it has gotten better or worse.
Be par for the course there.
Hello. I have a few questions re: Airbnb's. I am looking to make a reservation and would appreciate if anyone can help me here. I am a single traveler looking for a whole place for myself, not into the street scene at all. I prefer visiting bars / restaurants where one can 'see-before-one-buys'.
1. I am looking at listing's between Hotel Nacional - Av Paseo - Closer to the sea. Is this the right area to seek accommodation for bars / restaurants with ladies in a reasonable distance?
2. Is there any way to identify in the listing if the owner is OK with me bringing someone back? Most of the listing's I have seen in the Malecon / Vedado area state family accommodations etc. Not sure if there is term or the way a listing is written that holds the clue?
Highly appreciate any guidance any one can share.

Thanks!The way I search Airbnb in Cuba or anywhere I travel really is by using the map feature. Zoom in on the area you want to stay. I recommend zooming in close on el capitolio because the closer you are to el capitolio the better. You will be able to walk to malecon, San raf, most tourist spots, etc. Make sure you filter your results to only include entire houses / apartments with A / see, kitchen and WiFi and offer self check-in with or without building staff. This should ensure you get a private spot without anyone babysitting you too much. If you want to be really in the mix then zoom in on San raf instead and search spots closest to there with the same criteria. Really you can sit in any bar or restaurant and once people realize you're a tourist they will gravitate towards you. Some attention wanted and some unwanted. If you see something you like anywhere just go say hola. If you don't speak much Spanish just say that. Save your WhatsApp QR code as a screenshot so you can have the chica add you and message you later for meetup, or if they don't have phone then you will have to close the deal then and there. Invite them to the casa for drinks. Stock your fridge with sodas and cervesas and whatever food / snacks you need. That way if you run out of money you won't starve. Because believe me once the money runs out the fun is over. Which is why I wouldn't recommend trips over 3-4 days unless you're a veteran.

Because believe me once the money runs out the fun is over. Which is why I wouldn't recommend trips over 3-4 days unless you're a veteran.I personally plan to hit this place up at least 4 times a year. Already have my next 3 trips booked. I set a budget of $1,500 max for all my trips. $500-$600 for airfare roundtrip. Nothing over 9 hrs total so that I leave in the morning and in HAV by afternoon. Make sure your Airbnb arranges taxi pickup from airport especially if you don't know how to get to your casa.
Don't cheap out on Airbnb because you get what you pay for. I always spring for the $100 per night or so spots because they come with all the amenities I like ac, fridge, kitchen, WiFi, sometimes even hot water. So I budget $400-$500 for that.
The last is I budget $500 for entertainment and food. I set $200 of that aside to change to pesos (that's like 80,000 pesos these days on the black market) so I can buy food and groceries I want so I can eat out one or two times during my trip, but I bring enough food that I atleast can cook what I like if food is scarce. Also bring some treats / supplies to give to the locals as well (that should validate your 'support of the Cuban people' mission and satiate your morality LOL).
Break down the $300 entertainment budget to $50 per company. Some might say that's too much but again don't cheap out on company. You want to be highly selective about who you spend your time and resources on. Don't bring sand to the beach and remember your the prize so find the type of natural super model beauty that you would pay $200-$500 for a lazy fuck except in Cuba she will fuck and suck you like the king that you are. I keep it at $100 per day for company because I like to split the company up into day company and night company that way I can shoot for 2 pops each time. Basically getting $25 CPN (cost per nut). Then spend the day recovering the sperm count so you can go for the night round, have chica stay the night if you want and pop again in the morning.
That's how I did my last trip and it had me considering crossing off all my other mongering travel spots. The only reason I still consider going to Sosua is because they have the beach close by and the casino. So I always feel like a pirate when I roll through. I try to hit at least 6 supermodel status in Cuba at $50 usd each. Because in America I would be lucky to even find anything even close to that level of talent and they want $200-$800. So after I hit my 6 I basically broke even $1600 which is a total ROI of my expenses.
Thanks a lot for your comprehensive response. Appreciate your help.
One more question re: Badoo. Is this the best way to meet ladies? I prefer good looking, well proportioned / in shape bodies. Badoo seems to be having a significant number of not-so-appealing ladies. Not sure if I am doing anything wrong.

You got to think most of the girls in Cuba are not on any dating sites for you to find. They literally only recently were even allowed to have phones and most girls aren't fortunate to have a phone. The diamonds you see on the street likely live in rural areas and come to the city to find a rich tourist. The girl you're talking to now on dating apps will likely not have reliable internets or means to come see you when you arrive. So putting your eggs in that basket is just a waste of time tbh because you will likely end up disappointed waiting around thinking you been stood up when chica just don't have minutes on her phone and is back in the Bush. Just go for a walk down San raf or just walk around town, go to a bar or night club or art expo and your jaw will drop at some of the talent you see. You will think they are out of your league but it is the opposite way around. Most of them are there looking to win the lottery and meet someone like you. Just introduce yourself, tell them where you're from and ask if they want to spend time with you. They'll make it their mission make themselves unforgettable.
Cheers mate. You have helped me close the deal.
I was wondering whether to make a trip to Panama again as the relative travel distance-price-quality-safety equation was pretty high. I will now make a stop in Havana.
Yea don't waste your time with apps or online dating in Cuba. That's the American way of dating. You got to think most of the girls in Cuba are not on any dating sites for you to find. .......Just go for a walk down San raf or just walk around town, go to a bar or night club or art expo and your jaw will drop at some of the talent you see.

Hi, I'm visiting Havana for the first time. I heard from someone that there are a lot of beautiful young ladies. [Deleted by Admin]. So my question is, how do I know I'm hooking up with a 18+ lady? Do they have IDs? I assume the IDs are fake if they need to be approved at a club or whatnot. I also heard a lot of them hang out on the streets and solicit that way but again, Age of Consent vs Age of Majority. Replies here welcomed or PM me. Greatly appreciated and I'm really excited to visit!
Oh, and do Cubans speak any English whatsoever or would me learning Spanish be a wise decision to connect with them better? I was recently in Medellin and no one speaks any English. I assume Cuba is the same.
=============================================
Greetings Gentlemen,
The Age of Consent is the age in which girls can participate in consensual, non-commercial sex with their teen-age boyfriend without said teen-age boyfriend being charged with statutory rape.
However, the Age of Consent is irrelevant to the members of this forum.
What you need to focus on is the Age of Majority, which among other things is the age in which they can vote, get married, enlist in the military, and participate in commercial sex activities.
Please exercise caution and govern yourself accordingly.
Thanks,
Admin
Some people don't know how to operate in Cuba. Any seasoned Vet should know how to move even on a global scale. I guess for some people, intimidation is a Mother Fucker!There you go! One of the BEST post EVER!
There you go! One of the BEST post EVER!The thing is not everyone grew up around hustlers or gangsters. We are a community of different backgrounds all united in the common interest of pussy exploration. I grew up in Jamaica and also live close to Jamaica Ave in NYC. Both places will teach you how to not get hustled. These are some of the things you learn-.
If anyone walks up to you at all to even say Hi, best assume they are trying to get something from you. Secondly, you have to present as a hard target or you will be seen as a mark. That means no smiling, no looking around staring at the buildings like you're lost or sightseeing (ain't shit to really see. All the buildings look like shit and there's nothing for sale that you can't get back home on Amazon shipped to your doorstep). The key is to not look weak because hustlers can spot an easy mark with those signs. You want to walk with a purpose and don't stop to talk to anyone that approaches you. If they try to block you then pick up the pace and go around looking straight ahead. Just because someone talks to you doesn't mean you're obligated to respond. Pretend your wife is at home and she accidentally pocket dialed you and you can hear her in the background getting piped by the plumber and you're trying to get home to burn the bodies.
Hahaha 😆 😂.
....... hear her in the background getting piped by the plumber and you're trying to get home to burn the bodies.
This is exceedingly good information. Obviously someone who has done this before and knows what he's doing.
Budget and plan are right on target, a great way to operate, in my opinion.
Noobs, please take note.
I personally plan to hit this place up at least 4 times a year. Already have my next 3 trips booked. I set a budget of $1,500 max for all my trips. $500-$600 for airfare roundtrip. Nothing over 9 hrs total so that I leave in the morning and in HAV by afternoon. Make sure your Airbnb arranges taxi pickup from airport especially if you don't know how to get to your casa.
Don't cheap out on Airbnb because you get what you pay for. I always spring for the $100 per night or so spots because they come with all the amenities I like ac, fridge, kitchen, WiFi, sometimes even hot water. So I budget $400-$500 for that.
The last is I budget $500 for entertainment and food. I set $200 of that aside to change to pesos (that's like 80,000 pesos these days on the black market) so I can buy food and groceries I want so I can eat out one or two times during my trip, but I bring enough food that I atleast can cook what I like if food is scarce. Also bring some treats / supplies to give to the locals as well (that should validate your 'support of the Cuban people' mission and satiate your morality LOL)..

Trip report 10 days in Havana August 2015.
Preface Throughout my 10 days in and around Havana I could not help but wonder how different my experience and perhaps disappointment would have been because of the changes in Cuba and P4 P challenges if I had chosen to travel to Cuba instead of Brazil back in 2000 and 2001. But at a simple "flip of a coin" decision and Brazil and European destinations won out and I enjoyed my multiple trips to San Paulo and Rio back in the day.
I do know for an absolute certainty that if I did not have my fellow veteran travel partner Americano573, whom was so gracious to take me under his wing, if not for him my experience in Cuba would have been completely different, so I owe a big debt of gratitude to Americano573. His command of Spanish (this cannot be overstated in its importance in Cuba) his story's & experiences from his 14 plus years of travel throughout all of Cuba, the relationships that he has formed, the way he has adapted to the changes and the manner in which he has mastered his "game" is not only fascinating to watch first hand in action but best of all he unselfishly shares this information (women too) with a Cuban travel newbie as myself. There are others who have sent me suggestions via PM on this board who I wish to thank.
Much has already been written about Havana regards the girls, the police, the bars, the SW scene, the beaches, the pros, the pimps, the hassles, the hustle, the food, the casa particulars, the scams, the heat as yes August 2015 was very hot, and know that it is all spot on so not much to add to this that has not already been discussed in detail.
By design, this being my first trip to Cuba, I decided to stay in the Vedado area for the whole stay. We were roomies together in the same casa which was a god send. This proved very useful as its location is good central spot. You can very quickly spend a sizable amount of money on all the taxi fares for you and carting around your girls. The casa accommodations are relatively reasonable at 25 CUC a day but you can easily spend 20 to 60 CUC a day when you want to go and play.
The best advice I can give others is to learn some Spanish and if not you, like myself, will be a distant last place when it comes to the P4 P scene and your enjoyment factor. Fortunately my partner Americano573 speaks great Spanish and he took concern for me for the best possible enjoyment that I had with the girls.
The second best advice is do not trust anyone in Cuba as they ALL are out to get something from you. There are scams in every crevice of Havana's P4 P scene especially when it comes to taxi and restaurant meals and girls. I have been in many places in the world and I saw first hand how well they play the scam games. I saw first hand all the BS that goes on at the music / dance clubs. After one visit I will never step foot in these places ever again. The girl prices are absurd and frankly beyond ruin.
In my stay I enjoyed the company of about 5 girls a with a few hand picked by my friend. These were from other areas of Cuba so they were low volume provincial girls. I would argue that the vast majority of girls from Havana are spoiled and ruined because of the way some guys throw money at them. So yes IMHO you must get out of Havana to have any real enjoyment other than just a quick short term experience.
So would I recommend Cuba? Will I return? I could only recommend outside Havana and only if you speak some Spanish and are clever and have some "game" to you. This is not a Tijuana experience where you walk into Hong Kong bar and see a hundred very willing and doable Latin girls for $60-$80 no you have to work at your Cuban experience. I would only return if I would spend my time outside of Havana and if I spoke Spanish or had a great wingman as I did.
In summary I am glad I had the experience and adventure of seeing a new place. Cuba is a place that you must see at least once in your life if not for the P4 P scene but also for the country and friendly people. Not once did I feel threatened, hassled yes but in danger no! BTW I was never hassled like we get hassled in Tijuana at the bars, at most one tenth of what we endure in Tijuana.
Without the consent of my friend Americano573 I will not disclose his program but I can say what a program it is, it has taken him years to perfect and he reaps the rewards each day of his time in Cuba. It actually is incredible how much fun and different girls he has all throughout the island. The difference is that he puts in a great deal of effort and I saw first hand the benefits and even enjoyed a few side benefits myself. Thanks again my brother from another mother.
Know that these are my observations and experiences and yours may be different. That is OK. There are many details left out of this report but suffice to say that these are highlights only meant to provide information to others interested in visiting Cuba.
The Tall Man.My fellow explorers, where the hell has the past 10 years gone!
I spent 10 days in Havana almost 10 years ago (in August 2015) and if you read my trip report above (found on page #259, written September 2015 on my return from Cuba) I ask the question "So would I recommend Cuba? Will I return?
Well truth be told I have never been back to Cuba but have been busy just about everywhere else in the world with a decade of time in Medellin, Colombia where I live full time.
Is my friend Americano573 still out there? He was so kind to be my wing man and would love to catch up with him again.
So my question is how is the P4 P scene in Havana now?
Quality of chicas? Service and cost?
And also for a US Citizen is entering into Cuba and different than it was in 2015?
Yes I am considering a visit.
Thank you all and Godspeed!
The Tall Man.

So my question is how is the P4 P scene in Havana now?.FWIW I think it's incredible that you responded to your own post from 10 years ago. There's something poetic about that. It's a sign of the March of time. That 10 years can and does pass in the blink of an eye. So fast that you can remember writing this post and responding to it.
It also reminds me why we engage in this kind of travel. Life is short. Your legs and dick won't always work. Your libido and zest for life and love are a gift. You can't squander them. When they're gone they're gone. Nobody on their deathbed said I wish I'd traveled less, had less sex, seen and experienced less beauty. Only the converse is true.
Good on you.

Good on you.Truer words! Virility is a depreciating asset. We spend our lives pursuing the accumulation of things when experience is really the only true thing of value. Cuba is my current hyper-fixation, but I just came back from my 6th and final trip to DR. I forgot who said it but the world is like a book and those who haven't traveled have only seems 1 page.

I just came back from my 6th and final trip to DR.The DR is over rated. It's not even on my radar anymore. Been there, done that. Been to 6 different cities in the DR on multiple occasions. I will leave it for the hip-hop ghetto types.
The DR is over rated. It's not even on my radar anymore. Been there, done that. Been to 6 different cities in the DR on multiple occasions. I will leave it for the hip-hop ghetto types.DR was my first exposure to the lifestyle and I probably still recommend them for a first time monger. It's lost its appeal to me after I noticed the taxi drivers, girls, and locals all came together and basically said let's fuck the gringo together. It's no longer about ensuring the tourist has a good experience but more about let's all squeeze as much money out of the tourist as we can while providing minimal value.
This last trip as usual it was easy to get from the airport TO Sosúa, but when it came time to go back from sosua to the airport my uber got surrounded by a gang of taxi drivers and had to pull out a taser on them. This is after the taxi drivers tried to quote me $50 USD for the 10 minute drive to the airport so I said fuck it I'm using uber. I have no issues in Santiago or Santa Domingo only sosua. I am aware the taxi drivers are basically a union, but I refuse to be extorted. I rather walk the hour to the airport than give a mf $50 out of principle. Then the taxis wonder why they are sitting around all day waiting for rides.
Thanks to everyone on here, especially CiscoMech for all the advice.
Finally booked my travel and accommodation. May 1st week, staying at a Casa Particular in Vedado. Thought this may work best to straddle bars in the vicinity and those in old Havana. And, the AirBnb host confirmed visitors are OK. 😀.
If anyone around that week, give me a nudge and happy to catchup over a drink or a meal.

Heading to Havana in next two weeks. Already booked casa in Old Havana.
Can anybody recommend some nice local place for evening drink or / and cigar?
A place where meeting a nice girls could end up with a success?

1) How long has it taken y'all to receive your e-visa?
I submitted on Monday and still do not have a response other than the one confirming successful submission.
2) Do you snail-mail your money order to the embassy in Wachington to give it to them upon arrival?
Thanks in advance.

Going to Havana in June. I am fluent in Spanish and have been many places. No issues getting around and talking to people. A few questions here.
1. Sounds like hotels are a no go, so a casa particular seems like the only option. I am from US so I have to have all this dialed in before I go since I cannot use plastic. When I rent the airbnb from home, I can use a credit card for that right?
2. I find girls to hang out with early evening. We hang out, get drinks, she spends the night and leaves in the morning. What is an average rate for that and / or top shelf like Cisco mentions?
3. Whats a average rate for a couple of hours, day or night time?
4. Take a girl for food and drinks, what's the chance of her coming back to my place for no additional funds?. Does that happen here?
5. Any recommendations on where to pick up the beer, food, and liquor to stock my AIRBNB. ?
Thank you so much guys, I RTFF but could not find all this info together.
I personally plan to hit this place up at least 4 times a year. Already have my next 3 trips booked. I set a budget of $1,500 max for all my trips. $500-$600 for airfare roundtrip. Nothing over 9 hrs total so that I leave in the morning and in HAV by afternoon. Make sure your Airbnb arranges taxi pickup from airport especially if you don't know how to get to your casa.

I set $200 of that aside to change to pesos (that's like 80,000 pesos these days on the black market) so I can buy food and groceries I want so I can eat out one or two times during my trip, but I bring enough food that I atleast can cook what I like if food is scarce. Also bring some treats / supplies to give to the locals as well (that should validate your 'support of the Cuban people' mission and satiate your morality LOL).
Break down the $300 entertainment budget to $50 per company. Some might say that's too much but again don't cheap out on company. You want to be highly selective about who you spend your time and resources on. Don't bring sand to the beach and remember your the prize so find the type of natural super model beauty that you would pay $200-$500 for a lazy fuck except in Cuba she will fuck and suck you like the king that you are. I keep it at $100 per day for company because I like to split the company up into day company and night company that way I can shoot for 2 pops each time. Basically getting $25 CPN (cost per nut). Then spend the day recovering the sperm count so you can go for the night round, have chica stay the night if you want and pop again in the morning.
That's how I did my last trip and it had me considering crossing off all my other mongering travel spots. The only reason I still consider going to Sosua is because they have the beach close by and the casino. So I always feel like a pirate when I roll through. I try to hit at least 6 supermodel status in Cuba at $50 usd each. Because in America I would be lucky to even find anything even close to that level of talent and they want $200-$800. So after I hit my 6 I basically broke even $1600 which is a total ROI of my expenses.

KB.You must be doing something wrong if you didn't receive a electronic QR Code. You will need it at the airport that connects you directly to Cuba.

KB.If you are flying out of Miami there'd be a booth where you'd pay for the visa. If you are flying from another airport then you need to have your visa in order for them to let you go on board.
I fly from the west coast with a layover in Houston and they had the same set up as in Miami before you could board the plane to la Habana, that's in IAH.
Again, this was this last February, so make sure to check for current regulations regarding the visa now.

I just got into Habana today, from Miami on Delta.
They provide a tourist visa at Miami airport, takes 5 mins.
Good luck!

Going to Cuba Art Factory tonight, any other recommendations for pickup action in clubs? I don't usually do SW, so San Raf is not my thing.
FAC is closed, not sure why. Went to Johnny club, loud music and not a pigeon in sight. Not sure if it is the weekend and the party has moved somewhere else.
