Villa Lagarto – Maylin & Tony

Cienfuegos


Established as one of Cienfuegos' leading restaurants, the Lagarto also rents out three rooms cocooned on a delightful terrace, all with king-sized beds, hammocks and glinting views of the bay. While the bayside setting is magnificent, the restaurant gets busy. If it's intimacy and privacy you're after, look elsewhere.
