About Us

In fact, two worlds are united in our hostel: The Cuban & the German world! The Cuban part of the family runs our hostel, while the German part visits as often as possible!

But a bit more about us: We are Barbara, a red head and really white German in the beginnings of her thirties and Raidel, a black curly hair Cuban at the end of his twenties. Our story begins right here, in Trinidad, on the 6th of January 2020! It was totally destiny that we found each other in «La Cueva» (club into a natural cave called Disco Ayala)! But really in love, we fell the next day, sitting at the beautiful atmosphere at the “Escaleras” (the steps in front of Plaza Mayor) drinking and talking about life! It’s the place to be in Trinidad for meeting other people, using Wifi, grabbing drinks, listening to music or watching people! Everything is happening around that place.

In total, we spent lovely 5 months together, living in and enjoying Trinidad together – unfortunately, the half of the time dealing with Corona! We explored a lot of places like: making excursions to waterfalls by horses or walking/hiking (Hoyo del Pilón, Javira, Parque Natural El Cubano), making excursions by bike or by different kinds of cabs to the beaches la Boca, Ancón, Cabagán, El Grill and Yaguanabo, eating really good food or grabbing really good drinks in restaurants, bars or on the streets, visiting museums, joining a city tour,  spending some perfect days in the nature on the closed by national park Topes de Collantes , making a tour through the old valley of the sugar mills (Valle de los Ingenios – UNESCO) and so many other beautiful things! It was just a pleasant and absolutely perfect time!

Since May 2021 we are married, living in Munich, but coming as often as possible with other family members from Germany, enjoying family time together, exploring more and more of Trinidad! So, that’s why the idea of having a hostel was born (in our own interest :P)! The idea had to grow a bit, but after a lot of house viewings, talks and crazy paperwork we finally were able to buy the perfect hostel for us! Our Dos Mundos is located in the heart of Trinidad & all the sights, bars, restaurants as well as souvenir shops are within a few minutes’ walk! So, it’s absolutely perfect located, still in UNESCO area, but luckily able to reach by car! It’s so close to all the places to be, but the neighborhood is calmly to get enough sleep for the next day – except you are the ones, who are making a little barbecue party on the terrace 😛
