What a fantastic stop…read more Me and my four friends did a tasting tour and then set out back on the terrace. Be a mistake... Smoking cigars and sampling various cocktails. It was a fantastic day and the rum was quite amazing. The general manager, Freddie, came out and chatted us up to let us know how much they appreciated our business. The special process they head for almost 150 years was quite impressive. Every person that we met was incredibly friendly and super helpful for our total trip in Puerto Rico. I would totally recommend this place.

As someone who was born and raised in Puerto Rico, I had been wanting to visit Hacienda Santa Ana…read moreand experience the Ron del Barrilito tour for a long time. I've enjoyed many tasting experiences during my travels--including coffee, wine, tequila, aguardiente, and other local spirits--so it only felt right to finally experience one of Puerto Rico's most iconic rums. The full tour with the rum tasting is about $80 per person, which I initially thought was expensive. After taking it, I can honestly say it was worth it. The tour is informative and well organized, and you learn about the history of Ron del Barrilito, the family behind it, the beautiful historic hacienda, and the rum-making process. The facilities are gorgeous, well maintained, and the rum itself is clearly a high-quality product. The reason I'm giving four instead of five stars is the customer service. Before the tour, I ordered a small appetizer because I was about to do a rum tasting on an empty stomach. As a solo traveler, I expected to feel welcomed, but unfortunately, I didn't. The bartender, Jesús, came across as dismissive and unfriendly. While I appreciated that he wanted to let me know the appetizer was a generous portion, the way he communicated it made me feel like serving me was an inconvenience rather than a pleasure. After the tour, I had the opportunity to interact with another bartender, Yamil, and the experience was completely different. He was warm, friendly, engaging, and genuinely made me feel welcome. He embodied the kind of hospitality I expected from such a prestigious brand. I also felt that the employee at the admission counter could have been more welcoming. When you're paying for a premium experience, the customer service should match the quality of the product from the moment you arrive until the moment you leave. Overall, I still recommend the tour. It's a wonderful way to learn about one of Puerto Rico's oldest and most respected rum brands, and the setting is absolutely beautiful. With more consistent, hospitality-focused customer service, this experience would easily deserve five stars.

It does get muddy and dirty so wear water shoes that have good support. Otherwise if you wear tennis shoes wear ones you don't mind getting dirty. You will get muddy and wet.

Overall the springs was nice and felt great! Only reason I'm taking off a star is that Xander was quite a crazy driver and we didn't know we needed cash as we had stopped at a bbq place afterwards.

On 7/7/2026 I took the El Yunque and snorkeling tour. I will say that the communication leading up…read moreto the tour was great and when I did call with a question the employee was super helpful. They call you about 20 minutes prior to pick up in the morning (assuming you are being picked up from your hotel). Jorge and Angel were my tour guides with Jorge being the primary and the driver. We lucked out some pretty significant rain in the morning but we still had the opportunity to snorkel. The first area we snorkeled was negatively affected by the rain and the visibility was horrendous. After swimming beyond the wall, the water was clear and you were able to see various types of colorful fish. We then had to pick up an additional couple before heading to El Yunque. The ride there was about an hour and music was played and conversation was had between the guests and guides. El Yunque was beautiful and Jorge pointed out various plants and sights along the way. The climb to get to where the water slides and cliff jump is was pretty strenuous in my opinion and if you even have slight mobility issues it probably won't work for you. I had the opportunity to go down the slide and jump from the 20 foot cliff into the water. Just as we were hanging out in the water for a few the torrential rain came back. It did not hinder anything except trying to dry off a bit before getting in the van. My main and only real concern was Jorge's driving on the way back from El Yunque. We had an hour drive and it was a severely heavy rainstorm. He was on his phone using both hands, dancing with both hands off of the wheel in the air and jerking the steering wheel left and right along with the music. I was terrified! I think that the majority of this is due to him being only 20 and immature but the risk of an accident in the rain is raised when you are breaking the tire traction by whipping back and forth. The entire tour was great but this drive back really stressed me out, I was tense and my whole mood shifted. I even texted my husband from the van to let him know how careless and negligent Jorge was driving. Safety during the tour was fine EXCEPT for the ride home where all safety went completely out the window. I would not drive with him again. The following day I took an Old San Juan walking tour with Roberto. They tell you to get there 30-45 minutes early to meet your guide. While I was keeping cool and hydrating at a local establishment, I received more than one text and email from the company saying that check in had started and not to miss your tour. I rushed over to the meeting spot and searched for my guide with no success. They do not show up until about 10 minutes before the tour so don't stress getting there that early and surely don't let the automatic text messages make you think you are late...

The rooms are comfortable and the air conditioning is excellent. Their wi-fi is fast and very reliable. The breakfast was delicious and the service was excellent. I am a very light sleeper, so I did notice the street noise from an active area in any type of city. My wife and couple we were travelling with had no problems. But to be this close to everything, this was a non-issue for me because the B&B and location are really top-notch. If you want the best of all worlds when staying in the old San Juan area, this is the place to be.

The room is so cute and clean, and it is walking distance to so many shops, bars, and restaurants. Breakfast each morning was delicious and didn't ever leave me hungry (bowl of fresh fruit and coffee and juice). Next time we want to visit San Juan, we will definitely stay here again! They also suggested a couple other b&bs to visit (Casa Flamboyant and Dos Aguas--make sure to check them out, too!) ***PRO TIP: If you intend on being in San Juan for more than a day, I HIGHLY recommend not having a car until you decide to leave and explore other parts of the Island. Everything is walking distance so there's no need to drive (or you can Uber). If you absolutely have to pick up your rental car right off the bat, you will have to park you car overnight in a garage or a lot. There is a $3/day lot that is a little bit of a walk, near the National Guard base. Drop off your luggage with someone in your party and they'll check in, and you should park your car there.

Oh boy... this was a 10/10!…read more After spending a long, hot day exploring Old San Juan with the kids, we stopped by Cortés ChocoBar in Condado for something cold, and it was exactly what we needed. We ordered three of their frozen chocolate drinks, and every single one was absolutely delicious. Thankfully, it wasn't busy when we stopped by, so it was the perfect place to cool off and take a break from the heat. The café had a modern, inviting atmosphere, and the staff was friendly and welcoming. I asked if one of the frozen drinks could be split for the kids, and although they didn't split it for us, they happily gave us two extra cups so we could divide it ourselves. It was a simple gesture that we really appreciated. The frozen chocolate drink was rich, creamy, refreshing, and perfectly chocolatey without being overly sweet. Even the whipped cream was delicious, especially with the chocolate pieces on top. Everyone in our group loved it, and it quickly became our favorite sweet treat of the trip. Whenever we're craving something cold and chocolatey during our stay in Puerto Rico, this will definitely be our go-to spot. We can't wait to come back and try their bonbons before we head home!

It's the chocobar extension of the Caribbean Chocolate Cortés brand of bars that are similar to the…read moreFrench Chocolat-Menier used for making hot chocolate. I've bought them at the grocery store for my mother over the years when I couldn't find Menier. I was hoping to see some unique desserts at Chocobar Cortés. Let's just say that the chocobar at this location was not what I was expecting. It's like an express version of their original one in Old San Juan. This is located in the lobby of the Condado Palm Hotel. There are 2 entrances. Don't make the same mistake we did by trying to access at street level. That door is locked. You'll need to enter through the hotel lobby. The service is very slow here. There was only one other person there. We ordered a box of 6 chocolates and payed for it. I'm guessing he was making a drink for the other guest because he asked us to wait a few minutes. It ended up being longer so he told his colleague (who just came back from a break) to make up the chocolate box for us. Unfortunately, it took even longer as this other guy was more interested in the 2 young girls who just walked in. The chocolate bonbons were good, but nothing unique. It's the same artisan chocolates that you see everywhere for the same high price. Perhaps this location is better for their specialty cocktails in the evening time. I was looking forward to trying the choco-latte at some point. I doubt there will be a next time.
