We could see the ocean from the rooftop patio, which is where we enjoyed hanging out to eat, drink, and talk. The kitchens are fully equipped w/everything you need to cook or snack (we had a local chef who was fantastic). The beds were comfortable and tastefully decorated. The rooms are also tastefully decorated but not cluttered. The description is true to fact. It is in the middle of a small village. The local bar, eateries, and beach are very close...short, pleasant walk. We also had relaxing massages on the beach. Our host Molly has a sweet, serene, honest spirit.

Traveling on a budget but want to be on the beach? this place is for you :…read moreI had never stayed at Luquillo Sunrise Beach Inn before, but it had been on my list for quite some time. I've always wanted to spend more time in Luquillo, and after seeing the consistently high ratings on Expedia and TripAdvisor--along with its beachfront location--I decided to give it a try. The property itself is older, but don't let that deter you. The rooms were exceptionally clean, comfortable, and well-maintained, which made for a very relaxing stay. I loved the balcony and watching the ocean from so close! Beautiful sunrise too. Check-in is more laid-back, so don't expect a traditional front desk experience with someone always present. That said, the communication was excellent. I really appreciated that they reached out via text ahead of time to ask about my arrival--it was a thoughtful touch. I arrived earlier than the standard check-in time (as I had mentioned), and there were no issues at all. When I rang the bell, a staff member promptly came out to assist me and greeted me with a warm smile. There's also a very popular restaurant and bar on-site with an amazing-looking menu. Unfortunately, we didn't get the chance to try it this time, but it's definitely on the list for our next visit. The location is another big plus--easy to find, right on the beach, and conveniently close to a Walgreens and other nearby beaches to explore. Overall, this was a great experience, and I would absolutely stay here again. Thank you for a wonderful visit!

We recently stayed at the Rainforest Inn during our trip to Puerto Rico, and I want to share our…read morehonest experience both the good and the bad. This is simply our experience, and I'm not interested in debating or defending how we felt. To start with the positives: before booking, I read many reviews and was excited about supporting what appeared to be a small business run by a husband and wife. The property itself is absolutely beautiful , truly breathtaking scenery. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and surprisingly cool despite there being no air conditioning. The cooling system on the beds was amazing. We also did the hike on the property, which was beautiful and definitely one of the highlights of our stay. The wife was incredibly pleasant, welcoming, and knowledgeable about hospitality. She made us feel comfortable from the beginning. Unfortunately, several interactions with the husband left us feeling uncomfortable throughout our stay. Each morning, coffee and tea were offered to guests. One morning, since we planned to hike, we politely declined coffee multiple times. Despite saying no several times, the offer continued in a way that felt oddly tense, as though our declining offended him. During conversation, he openly mentioned that his wife often tells him he comes across as rude. He also praised her hospitality skills, and honestly, I completely agreed with him on that point. What really unsettled me happened when we were signing waivers for the hike. He handed me the waiver with a pen attached. After I passed the paperwork to my husband, my husband reached for the pen, and instead of handing it to him directly, the pen was tossed toward him. Whether intentional or not, the interaction immediately rubbed me the wrong way and changed the energy for me completely. For context, we are a Black couple, and while I cannot say what anyone's intentions were, some of the interactions throughout our stay felt uncomfortable enough that it became hard not to notice. Especially in the way my husband was treated at times. Another example: he offered to send horseback riding information to me. Since I didn't have my phone nearby, I asked twice for the information to be sent to my husband instead. Despite that, the information was still sent to me. The final issue involved the laundry area. We were washing a small load of clothes and some towels during the allowed hours. A few minutes into drying, he opened the dryer himself, removed my personal clothing including bras and underwear -- and left them sitting on top of the washer. He later sent a text saying the dryer was overloaded and making noise, although the load was not packed tightly and was smaller than the load left behind by the previous guests. What bothered me most was not the concern about the machine, but the fact that my personal undergarments were handled instead of simply asking us to adjust the load ourselves. None of these incidents individually caused a confrontation because we chose to remain respectful and calm throughout our stay. However, taken together, they left a stain on what otherwise could have been an excellent experience. Afterward, I revisited some of the lower rated reviews and noticed that several other guests also mentioned discomfort with the husband's demeanor and communication style. I also noticed responses to criticism often seemed defensive. Again, this review is not written to argue with the owners or invite debate from strangers online. This was our experience, and no one gets to tell us how we should feel about the interactions we had during our stay.

I wish I didn't have to write this review, but after multiple emails, messages, and empty promises…read morethat someone would reach out, we've been completely ignored. Our wedding was in December, and it's now almost February--still no response from the venue or the owner. The issue? We paid extra for a higher-tier bar package, only to find that our bar signage was hidden, and the bartender had no idea how to make any of the drinks. Classic cocktails like Old Fashioneds and Negronis were made poorly (when they were made at all), and in the end, most guests resorted to drinking only wine, champagne, or beer--completely negating the premium package we paid for. We made menus for the drinks and they magically disappeared. To make matters worse, we were previously assured via email that the bartender was experienced, only to later find out that they were hired the day before the event. This level of unprofessionalism is unacceptable. We reached out multiple times to resolve this fairly, including requesting a partial refund for a service we didn't receive. We were met with silence. Someone on Instagram keeps telling us that "someone will reach out," yet here we are, still waiting. If you're considering this venue, be warned: they have no problem taking your money, but when an issue arises, they disappear. We expected better, and at the very least, a response. Mind you, the location is spectacular but the fact that they hired someone without experience to work a wedding is shady and unfair to the guests and couple who paid out of pocket to make this an experience. It was an experience but not one that we smile about when it comes to talking about the bar saturation . 90% of guests are all industry people. Thanks for not responding. I tried.

The property really makes you feel like you're out in the jungle... away from civilization and yet still completely safe (a rarity on the island). Short drive to Fajardo, El Yunque, or the Luquillo kiosks. Breakfast is simple and serviceable, but the real draw here is the laid back atmosphere and beautiful grounds. The owner is quick to shake your hand and welcome you to his little slice of paradise. Highly recommended.

We had never been to Luquillo (or Puerto Rico), so we didn't know what to expect. We had been…read moreroad-tripping around the island for about 10 days and Luquillo was our final destination. At first glance, it didn't seem like much was going on in the area. We were a bit concerned. We were a few hours early before our scheduled arrival, but we decided to check out where the hotel was to get our bearings. While doing so, we ended up meeting Dylan the owner. Super nice, awesome guy. Originally from the mainland. He was kind enough to let us check in early because the room was available. This was unexpected and certainly welcomed! The room was GREAT. SUPER clean, SUPER modern. VERY nicely decorated. Lots of little touches to make it so welcoming: robes, beach towels, yoga mats, beach chairs. Dylan sure knows how to decorate. Good water pressure, nice hot water, beautiful tile work, comfy memory foam bed, great sheets and blankets. We stayed on the top floor. Directly outside was a community deck with lights, a couple picnic tables, and some hammock chairs. The ocean and beach is LITERALLY steps away. You can hear the waves. It is incredibly relaxing. We spent time on the beach, which was very quiet. It was just us, some surfers, and a little flock of pelicans that provided HOURS of entertainment. A few minutes walk in one direction (along the beach) is a laid back restaurant called Boardriders. They served up really good fish tacos (mahi) and churrasco sandwiches. You sit and have your meal right along the beach. It's super chill and awesome. About 500 feet away from the Surfing Turtle is a little breakfast and lunch walk-up place. Super cheap prices and great breakfast sandwiches. There's also a nice restaurant directly across the street. El Yunque is only about a 15 minute drive away (book reservations ahead of time bc of COVID!!!!). Big line of 50+ kioskos were also about 10 minutes drive away. Across the road (about 5 min drive) there is a KFC, McDonalds, Wendy's, Walgreens, and a grocery store called Amigo (not a Walmart, as Maps suggests). After some hesitation because of the few reviews of the Surfing Turtle, this stay ended up being our favorite out of a 10 day trip. The location right on the beach is perfect. The owner is so great. The rooms were so clean and modern. Has a hostel feel, not a chain all-inclusive. Mix of all ages staying there, mostly on the younger side, but we are in our 40s and didn't feel like we were the "old people" haha. Highly recommend if you are looking for a modern, chill place in Luquillo with a great, quiet beach right behind it. We definitely would stay here again.

ALL-TIME BEST B&B! Two days before my wife and I arrived at Casa Encanto, Hurricane Ernesto formed right over this side of Puerto Rico, knocking out power across the island. Trees and power lines were down everywhere, rivers flooded, and bridges in El Yunque National Forest were washed out. Despite this, canceling was not an option. We had a 4x4 Jeep Wrangler and a determination to enjoy our 25th wedding anniversary. When we pulled up to Casa Encanto, Lisa and Ryan greeted us with frozen mojitos in custom strawed Casa Encanto Yeti Ramblers--It tasted unlike every mojito I have ever had before, though surely it was one of the most delicious frozen concoctions I have ever sucked down a tube! During our tour, Ryan confirmed that Luquillo had lost power but assured us it wouldn't be an issue at Casa Encanto due to their solar panels and Tesla batteries. He was right--the house remained fully powered for our entire stay. When you stay here, it's just you and your significant other--no other guests on the property. You'll have the entire private downstairs floor of this three-story house, right next to your own swimming pool and rainforest gardens. The space is fully equipped with everything you need, including a kitchen that you'll likely never use, thanks to the incredible meals provided daily. Trust me, the portions are generous--you'll definitely have enough leftovers for a second meal. Speaking of the food, Lisa and Ryan treated us to five incredible meals at Casa Encanto: Coconut Guava Monte Cristo: Brioche dipped in coconut custard, turned into French toast, and stuffed with Swiss cheese, ham, and turkey. Topped with powdered sugar and a guava sauce drizzle. Lisa thoughtfully served the coconut on the side for me. It was simply incredible. Lump Crab & Shrimp Cakes Benedict: A poached egg with lemon butter caper sauce atop a crab and shrimp cake on sautéed spinach and an English muffin. Quite possibly the best crab cake I've ever had. Breaded Breakfast Cereal Steak w/Biscuits & Sausage Gravy: Milanesa steak breaded in Kellogg's Corn Flakes, pan-fried, and served with biscuits and sausage gravy. This meal broke into my top five chicken fried steaks list, the only one outside Texas to do so! El Yunque Omelette: A three-egg omelet with sautéed tomatoes, asparagus, baby spinach, portobellos, red onions, poblanos, and cilantro, filled with sharp cheddar and topped with avocado slices and spicy mayo. To be honest, my wife got this and I never took bite, but she loved it. Looked amazing. Steak & Lobster Claws Dinner: As a surprise bonus meal for staying four nights at Casa Encanto, we were served an amazing steak dinner... coconut mashed potatoes, roasted mushrooms, Filet Mignon drizzled with au jus, crowned with lobster knuckles in garlic butter, and a triple chocolate mousse cake for dessert. I ate all of my steak and half of my wife's, and it was so freaking perfect that I almost cried. The slice of cake was so good and rich that it took me over two days to finish it. Every breakfast was served with fruit from their orchard and a bellini, and one morning, we opted for the fresh mango smoothie, made with mangos from their orchard. There is so much more to say about Casa Encanto and Ryan & Lisa - I could gush on and on, but I'm going to wrap it up because you probably have stopped reading up to this point, anyway... On our way checking out, we opted to purchase two of those custom strawed Casa Encanto Yeti Ramblers I mentioned earlier in this review, but on the condition that Lisa include a Piña Colada in them. When I asked Ryan a few days earlier who made the best Piña Colada in Puerto Rico, without reservation he replied, "My wife!" I think he may be wrong, though... That was the best Piña Colada I've had ANYWHERE!

Upon arrival, our room was facing a wall. To see the ocean we had to go on the terrace and crane our necks to the left hanging over the bannister. NOT an ocean view room. They really need to call these rooms partial ocean view. Then there would be no issue. I immediately went back to the front desk and asked for a different room. It seems there was not ONE other available room in the entire hotel, but they did promise to move us the next day. We could not unpack. Made me crazy and uncomfortable. The next day we were promised a room between 11-2. And by 2pm we'd heard nothing so we went to meet the front desk manager at 2pm. She assured us the room was being prepared. It was!!! We finally had a beautiful king room facing the ocean and not over the kiddie pool. Krysia was wonderful and everything she said came to fruition. Can't thank her enough for her support. There were definite differences between the two supposed ocean view king rooms. The first room obviously faced a wall not the ocean. But it also lacked amenities that were present in the 2nd room such as really cool lights on the side of the bed that light up when you pass by. Great for the evening when going to the bathroom! There was a small (not real) plant in the bathroom. There were more towels present. There was a love seat sized couch not a chair. The sliding glass doors to the terrace were larger. It's possible the ceilings were higher too. Small measures but noticeable. The Tiki Hut near the beach and pool is great and we had lunch there everyday. We saw people enjoying the cabanas and the individual service they receive. The beach area is my spot. Always chairs and umbrellas available with staff to set you up. We have been to this hotel at least 6 times over the past years and have found the restaurants good and the service friendly. Housekeeping staff is accommodating too. Review just went from 4 stars to 3. Upon checking out they tried to charge us extra taxes. We pre paid the entire amount at time of reservation which included room and taxes and resort Fees. Why the up-charge at checkout ?
