Accommodation Scams in Viñales

Casa Particular Unsolicited Room Upgrade Charge

Casa particular hosts in Vinales occasionally move guests to a better room without being asked, then charge a higher nightly rate for the upgrade at checkout — claiming the original room was unavailable or that the upgrade was standard. The charge may appear on a handwritten receipt where line items are difficult to dispute. Some hosts add laundry, breakfast, or fan charges that were not agreed in advance.
