I Stayed in a Local Casa Particular in Varadero - Here's What I Found

Can you visit Varadero without staying at an all-inclusive resort? In this video, I stay in a local Cuban casa particular instead of a resort and spend the day exploring Varadero's public beaches, local restaurants, transportation, and everyday life. I share what breakfast costs, how to save money using Cuban pesos, how to get around Varadero without a resort package, and why staying with locals gives a completely different experience in Cuba. Along the way, you'll see both the local beach used by Cubans and the famous resort area beaches, learn about Cuba's dual exchange rates, and get practical tips for independent travel in Varadero.
