Of dozens of hostels I have stayed at in more than a dozen countries, my stay at this hostel under the care of this wonderful family is without question the most wonderful, highest quality, enjoyable, memorable and comfortable (I could go on) of all. You won’t find better meals, comfortable lodging (unlike most hostels and even hotels in Cuba, the Oasis has everything you need from specials lodging to hot showers and more—if you’ve been to this country or another hostal in it before, you’ll know what I mean and will be amazed at how at home you feel), or more welcoming, knowledgeable, compassionate (and so much fun!) family of hosts to care for you. Not to mention perfect English! Even if you think Remedios is a little far from Santa Clara (if that is your main interest—otherwise, there is so much to see in Remedios and worth spending the time to explore this beautiful and historic town), I urge you it is worth the extra time to travel to stay with this family instead of at a closer hostel. You will not regret!
