School location

Our programs are based in ‘Habana Vieja’ – in the heart of the historic old Havana, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The area is a myriad of gorgeous neo classical buildings packed with local people living cheek by jowl. At street level there is a constant buzz with musicians plying their trade in the many fantastic bars to be found in this popular neighbourhood. The area is VERY safe, and you will quickly feel comfortably at home. There are lots of interesting shops and quirky art galleries here and most of Cuba’s cultural heritage including national museums also.

Within 24 hours of your arrival you will enjoy a ‘welcome camino’ to introduce you to the neighbourhood and practical services such as WiFi and money change as well as where cool bars and cafes, museums and live music venues are… all on our doorstep!

PLEASE NOTE : All our Cuba programs include accommodation, breakfast & lunch in addition to Spanish lessons and afternoon activities and excursions. We are the only language school in Old Havana (Habana Vieja) and it’s a condition of our licence that all guests participating in Spanish classes and other activities are registered as staying with us. No AirBnB or guests staying with friends please – thanks for your understanding!

"Learning Spanish, salsa and Cuban culture in a very friendly atmosphere"

Yildiz Silier

Three hours of intensive Spanish courses in very small classes (1-3 students), salsa and tours of Havana in the afternoons with people from over the world. What else can one want to enjoy beuatiful Havana? Breakfasts and lunches at school were delicious, and my single en suite room in Amy's casa particular was very comfortable and close to the school. The school's location in Old Havana was excellent. All of the crew was very helpful in solving our smaill problems. My special thanks to Leo and our teacher Delvis. I will definitely want to come back again.

"Best Language school in Cuba"

Timm B

I had the pleasure of learning Spanish at Corazon Cuba in February, and it was an incredible experience. The instructors are not only highly knowledgeable but also exceptionally patient and engaging, making each lesson enjoyable and effective. The immersive environment helped me improve my language skills rapidly while gaining a deeper understanding of Cuban culture. The small class sizes ensured personalized attention, and the staff’s dedication to student success was evident in every interaction. I highly recommend Corazon Cuba to anyone looking to learn Spanish in a vibrant and supportive setting.
