walk-in shower Explanation: Definitely NOT Cuban shower! “Cuba” is a basin, in Portugal it means a walk-in shower enclosure. https://pt.dreamstime.com/imagem-de-stock-royalty-free-banheiro-com-cuba-de-vidro-do-chuveiro-image10370886 |

Bucket shower Explanation: There seem to be several meanings of duche de Cuba (with a capital 'C'. The one that seems most likely to me in this context is a bucket shower, where you pull a rope to tip a bucket of water over yourself. |

waterfall shower Explanation: Just another idea to look into, although I am aware that I may also be wrong ! Anyhow, the photo in this link shows a lady under a shower, found within a swimming pool, so term could possibly be translated as waterfall shower. https://www.revistarua.pt/hotel-aguas-do-geres/ The reason I have assumed that this image, halfway down the page, relates to the term "duches de Cuba" is because,in the article on this page, the term appears immediately next to "Piscina Dinâmica", which is a long-shot, but you never know....! "...beleza e bem-estar. Piscina Dinâmica, duches de Cuba." Example sentence(s):
