Hi mate, have been 3 times, twice to cayo coco and once to cayo guillarmo, absolutely love the place, a more chilled relaxed holiday you will be pushed to find anywhere.Really depends on what you want to do with your time-for me it was pretty much all about the fishing, so these two places ticked all the boxes, history, well got to be mainland, lots go to varadero and then head on excursions to havana. The Cuban people,imo, are the friendliest,nicest folk I have met,cannot do enough for you.What time of year are you thinking of mate,I preferrred from may through till july,again, best of the fishing and calmest weather.Give me a shout and will help any way i can
Should read your post properly........... can't comment on november mate as never been that time...soz
