One of the things I liked most was its location; you're really close to everything. The room was super clean, and Joaquin was very kind and helpful. The hotel has a very beautiful view; you can see all of San Juan, and its garden is very nice with many varieties of flowers and plants.

This little hotel perched on a hillside and enveloped in lush plant life is a delight to the senses. Joaquin, the owner, and his sidekick, Pepe the dog, are a delight as well! The welcome is so enthusiastic you feel like you are already friends. The rooms are nice enough for sleeping and showering, but the rest of the time you want to be relaxing in one of the many special nooks offered - by the pool, on a little side porch, on the balcony to see the sunset, or among the orchids the proliferate on the grounds- the house is open for all to enjoy. A highlight of our first trip to Puerto Rico!

This is going to visit your old relative like experience. 💯% satisfactory experience, a taste of the amazon jungle without the long trip to a non US country territory. The beauty of the landscaping and scenery is simply breathtaking. Highly recommend. Thank me later! :-)

Liked: Cleanliness
A beautiful, nature-immersed property with a true retreat feel. Lush plants, flowers, and jungle surroundings, along with a stunning pool area and multiple outdoor tables, made it a peaceful and inspiring place to relax, work, and enjoy the view—and Pepe the dog was a lovely touch. That said, this is not a traditional hotel; it’s a more self-managed, Airbnb-style stay with no staff or daily service. While the environment is exceptional, some comfort details could be improved (bed quality, noisy AC, and doors). Ideal for guests seeking nature and quiet over hotel amenities.

We loved our host! Our host was very knowledgeable of the area and in general, and would send location pins or give ideas about where to go if needed. The place was beautiful and quiet if you're looking for a couple's getaway. Everything was easy to get to. Airport is 30 min away. Shopping centers and eating places are close by, but need your own transportation to travel. Overall it was a great vacation stay and we will definitely be back!
