This is an amazing property for families with teens! The guesthouse has 3 separate units that allowed kids to have their own rooms. The outdoor covered patio was perfect for gathering, meals, and listening to the coqui frogs in the evening. The main unit has a full kitchen and a bonus indoor hammock! The guesthouse is secluded from the rest of the units and has a private gated entrance. The property is in a quiet area yet close to beaches and other attractions. I would definitely recommend!
Upper and lower unit with double bed, fullback, and TV in each. Upper has patio.
Covered patio with seating, mini fridge and outdoor sink

We stayed 5 nights and it truly exceeded our expectations. From the moment we arrived, everything was seamless. Check -in was easy, and parking was super convenient. The grounds and landscaping are absolutely stunning. Pictures honestly don’t do it justice. Our room was spotless, smelled fresh, and the bed was so comfortable. Having access to a kitchen was also a huge plus and came in handy throughout our stay. This place really didn’t miss a single detail. Falling asleep to the sounds of the rainforest was the cherry on top. The entire vibe is so quaint, peaceful, and relaxing. 10/10 recommend we would absolutely stay here again.

Such a great experience! The rooms are quite small, but it gave the exact rainforest stay vibes I was looking for! The breakfast room was a great bonus - it even had bug spray and sunscreen! The grounds were clean. We loved looking for coqui frogs at night! Absolutely recommend!!

Overall a nice place to stay. The room and facilities are clean and well maintained. Be aware that the rooms are storage containers so they are tiny (may be better for 1 person or 2 smaller people), not well ventilated (the sheets and all of our clothing was slightly damp the whole time), and not well insulated so you can here other guests if they are loud. If you are not looking for all the frills and just want a nice clean space to sleep so you can explore the island and local beaches, then this is a fairly good choice.

What a wonderful relaxing place to stay! Clean, fresh smelling room, bed was comfortable! Management were quick to reply to requests and very accommodating and kind! Continental breakfast was so convenient, water bottles, fruit, cheese, small snacks, coffee was delicious! Location was ideal close to everything, but tucked into the side of a mountain! Views were spectacular!! Will be back for sure!!

The staff on the grounds are incredibly warm and friendly. Yes the rooms are small (be sure you are comfortable with you’re comfortable with your friend/partner), but it is built on an ecologically friendly model from containers and locally owned. There are some issues with humidity as its located in/next to the rainforest, but that’s to be expected

This is a great property as a place to lay your head when traveling around the island. Some of the instructions on getting around, check in, and check out were confusing and depending on where you look for it (via website, text, email, handbook in the room) there was conflicting information. While being in the middle of nature and local living is part of the experience, if you are a light sleeper, bring ear plugs and an eye mask. Those coquís and other habitat like to be loud in the evenings and mornings. The breakfast room is open 24/7 which was a huge bonus as it had an ice maker and microwave along with kitchen utensils. The room itself was pleasant and was spacious for a solo traveler. The area felt safe as the location is gated.

It was very convenient for everything close to a lot of beaches, Walmart, fast foods and restaurants and the breakfast part even that we don't eat there was very nice. Very super clean and friendly staff. However you can hear everything a lot of noises in the evening from others staying there. Very small trash can just one. No even a small tv. We used the same towels the whole stay. No iron for the clothes. No much illumination for my wife make-up. And the pin from inside doesn't work I have to jump the fence to opening from outside in order to get out from there the last day.
