Cayo Levisa – the hidden treasure of the Caribbean

Member photo: Ellinor
Palm trees and a white sandy beach. What more can I possibly ask for?

Tranquillity at its best

It sounds like a cliché, but Cayo Levisa is so beautiful it hurts. Imagine a holiday on a beach white as snow and the ocean being your closest neighbour. This is tranquillity down to the last letter.
You'll find the small paradise island Cayo Levisa just half an hour north-west off the coast of Cuba. Life here is slow-motion and the waves are gently stroking the beautiful beach.
Tranquillity at its best
To wake up in a bungalow just a few metres from the ocean front and go for a morning stroll down the beach sounds like a dream. But the dream comes true on Cayo Levisa, and this is the ideal place to relax.
An excursions to the nearby coral reef is a good option if you want to do something active. Other than that your stay will mostly be about sun, sea and relaxation. Catch up on your favourite book, work on your tan or see the clouds pass by.
The beach is never crowed, thanks to the fact that the island only holds one resort with about thirty bungalows. You'll never have to worry about finding your own spot along the three kilometres of beach. If you'd rather mingle and sip mojitos there are usually a bunch of sun-worshippers hanging out near the beach bar at the main building.
