"Bactris cubensis" is a species of palm endemic to the Nipe-Baracoa Massif and eastern Sierra Maestra in eastern Cuba at elevations between 40 and 700 metres above sea level. "B. cubensis" trees grow 2.7 to 6.4 m tall in clumps of 6 to 12 stems.

According to Salzman and Judd "B. cubensis" forms a clade with "B. plumeriana" and "B. jamaicana", the other Greater Antillean "Bactris" species.
