Anyone here been to Baracoa, Cuba?

MSN. com has a brief about this town, touting it as a Bohemian getaway (whatever that means). Just curious what those who may have been there have to say about it.

Hey, bro, never been there but I could find some info in Tripadvisor.

Good idea from an overall viewpoint. I'm more curious about it from a cigar smokers viewpoint, however, and for that one must go to the expert source. LOL. Sounds suspiciously like one of those resorts in Cuba that has, sadly, banned indoor cigar smoking. I ran into that at the Sol Cayo Santa Maria resort. Just couldn't believe it. In Cuba, of all places, I never expected to have to sit outside in the heat and humidity to smoke a cigar.

Check with Nick aka Cubano I believe he has been there.

That means lots of artsy types and hipsters. Probably a pretty vibrant and interesting place to visit, but I would imagine most visitors don't go for the same reasons you would be going (assuming you are going to relax, eat, drink and smoke cigars).
