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! :-)

8/10 Very good

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.

The property was amazing. The property owner was attentive and had such good communication in making sure we arrived ok. He built this place and did the landscaping which is an added feature to the stay. If you Love the mountains and beautiful plants stay here🌴 We had a situation that required a doctor order and x-rays. He was so very helpful❤️ Would go back in a heartbeat❤️ Loved the dog also Peppe Thanks again for a great stay❤️

Amazing experience. I’m so glad I picked this over a traditional hotel/resort. The property is breathe taking, the owner is super cool, and its close to the national rainforest. I will definitely request to stay here again next time in Puerto Rico.

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!

One of the most beautiful properties I've ever stayed at. There are multiple areas to sit among the orchids and see the ocean and lights of San Juan from 1,000 feet high. It is very peaceful. The host is amazing. I highly recommend this hotel.

Great place for those who love natural habitat

Awesome property in the mountains with great views and vibe. Friendly host ready to serve and informative about horticulture. A real gem.

Joaquin (owner) is a landscape architect, and the detailed gardens and structures are beautiful. He's a real nice and interesting host as well. Don't miss this gem!

This was by far my favorite place to stay in all of Puerto Rico. If you want to be emerged in the rainforest but still stay in a clean room with all the amenities that feels like home this is where you should stay. It doesn't get any more beautiful or tranquil than this. The owner Joaquin has created such a special place and works so hard to keep it looking pristine to be able to share this hidden gem with as many people as he can. I feel blessed to have stayed there and to have met Joaquin as well.

Really a very quiet place. The very beautiful spaces are accompanied by the beautiful view of the nature that surrounds it. Everything is very clean and with spaces to connect and share as a couple or family. It met my expectations and I recommend it. The Host Joaquín and his big dog Pepe were very friendly. We hope to visit you soon.
