The Key2Cuba Programme

As always at Key2Cuba, we focus on offering the best possible experience for our clients. Our refreshed programme for 2008 includes fabulous colonial hotels, stunning new locations and direct flights with Virgin Atlantic unless otherwise stated. Each trip has its own unique focus, making the most of the weather conditions and cultural life in Cuba and our specialist programme managers source the latest ‘happening‘ places. Most importantly you will have the excitement and privilege of learning and dancing with Cuba’s leading Afro-Cuban dance Company: Raices Profundas. The dancers and teachers are friendly, supportive and highly experienced in teaching at all levels. Kerry Ribchester and/or Rohan Brown will be leading the UK teachers.

Havana

Old HavanaIn Havana, we'll stay at a colonial hotel in Old Havana, right in the heart of all the action.  Next door is a fabulous Salsa club with live music every night.  The hotel is 2 minutes walking distance to the sea, the Cathedral Square and just 10 minutes to Casa de la MúsicaSoak up the atmosphere and enjoy being in the centre of all the action, on top of hundreds of restaurants and the famous Plaza de la Almas.  You will be in the heart of the old town, steeped in history, live music, cobbled streets and the old and recently renovated area that is a world heritage site - right on your door step!

Salsa classes take place in the conference centre on the first floor of the hotel.  It is a beautiful space and has a private and concentrated atmosphere.  Breakfast is at the stunning, open air rooftop restaurant overlooking the port and all of Havana.  There is a special room dedicated to Hemmingway, as it was in this hotel he was inspired to write many of his master pieces.  The glamorous reception has live piano music and a fountain to welcome you.

The area is bustling with life and as you walk in, you will feel just like you are in a 1950s movie.
