The property grounds are gorgeous and well maintained. I would add that the room itself is very small, especially if two guest stay in the same room. The bed is large enough to sleep two but the space in the room is limited to a small walk way along the bed, small area in front of the bed and patio. A rental car is recommended since walking along the highway is not really a good idea. There is small market and restaurant down the road.

I really enjoyed my time at this hotel in Luquillo. The place is beautiful and extremely clean — they do a great job keeping everything spotless. The room was small but very comfortable. The bed and pillows were cozy. The staff, although few, were very attentive and welcoming. There are just a couple of things that could be improved. It would be nice if they provided coffee in the rooms since they already include a coffee pot and cups. Also, the continental breakfast could use a bit of an upgrade — mostly boxed pastries and sugary cereals like Froot Loops. It would be great to have some fresh options like bagels, baked goods from a local bakery, or healthier choices like oatmeal. Overall, it was a very nice stay, and I would definitely come back!

The property was very aesthetically pleasing. There was a lit pool and hammocks outside. Additionally, there was a place where one could sit with friends or family and eat together. The rooms were cozy stacked train trailers (15’x12’est) which included a stand-up shower in the bathroom (4’x12’est). There’s air conditioning which did really well. We actually bought a blanket because we were cold. The only issue was that the air conditioning unit seemed to have mold above it on the wall and ceiling. There isn’t any ventilation unless you’re opening doors or windows with no screens. With it being right up against the rainforest, we found the bugs and lizards would quickly try to enter. It would be really nice if there was a built-in ventilation system that helped with the moisture that’s always in Puerto Rico and was present even more so due to the air conditioning unit. Other than that, it was an amazing location.
Hammocks and a little pool was available.
Mature trees surrounded the Location.
There were different fruit trees.
Lots of lizards. But none in your room.

I recently stayed at Mata e Platano Guesthouse and overall had a pleasant and relaxing experience. The space is peaceful and surrounded by nature. I enjoyed the pool area, it's a lovely place to unwind. The pool technically stays open until 10pm, which is great, though I did notice it stops filtering around 4pm, so by the evening there were some bugs and leaves floating. The room was small but cozy, and I liked the simplicity of the space. They provide a first aid kit and mosquito repellent, which is a thoughtful touch, though both are stored in the breakfast room and since that room is locked after 10am, you can’t access them later in the day if you need them. They offer a light breakfast with sweet snacks, crackers, bread (though no butter), and usually one fruit. I’d recommend they update the listing to say “morning snacks” instead of “breakfast” to better reflect what’s provided. On our first morning, the breakfast room was still closed at 7am even though they stated it opened at 6am, we had to call for them to unlock it, which was inconvenient. Noise from the upstairs guests was a major drawback. You can hear every footstep, and it went on well past 1am, making it hard to sleep. Also, the bed sheets had stains, which made the room feel a little less cared for than expected. The hosts were always responsive when we called, and that gave us some peace of mind. Considering the downsides, I do feel the price is a bit high for what’s offered.
