After the revolution, Cuba supports a complete ban on land-based casinos, so the hotel complexes of Havana, Varadero and other resorts do not provide gambling services.
Gambling halls, betting houses and private clubs are considered illegal activities, entailing criminal liability and confiscation of equipment.
The tourist infrastructure is focused on beach holidays, music, gastronomy and cultural shows, without integrating casinos into hotel ecosystems.
The only format travelers sometimes encounter is casinos aboard cruise ships in international waters not subject to Cuban jurisdiction.
Attempts at clandestine work are accompanied by legal risks for organizers and intermediaries, as well as strict control of financial flows.
As a result, Cuba lacks a licensed land market, and prospects for its appearance in the short term are not visible.
