    Great amazing coffee. We did the tour and I learned some much about coffee and how they harvest coffee plants. It was an incredible experience. And the taste of coffee and there chocolate wow.

    One of the best experiences/ tours we've ever done. We learned so much about coffee and the native plants on the property as well as the history of coffee in Puerto Rico. Our guide Tal was very informative and passionate about her job at the farm and made the tasting experience very personal. 100% would recommend for the coffee, the views and for Tal. We will certainly be back.

    Great coffee tour at Sandra Farms in the Guayabo Dulce area of Adjuntas! The 2+ hour tour featured two coffee tastings and three dark chocolate tastings. An incredible experience with a trilingual (English, Spanish, German) guide who lives right on the property. In addition to discussing and viewing coffee plants, the tour also included the opportunity to see some unique flowers and medicinal plants as well as other crops grown for the owners' personal use such as macadamia nuts, pineapples, kale, herbs and berries. Note that the ride here is quite an experience and maybe not the best for a small car- an SUV or Jeep would do better. We made it in a sedan but be cautious of potholes, hairpin turns and narrow lanes where only one car can pass at a time on a two lane road. Make sure you visit during daylight- I think they close before sunset anyway but I would not want to negotiate these roads in the dark. They have coffee and chocolate available for purchase - coffee is about $25 and large bag of individually wrapped chocolates also $25- artisanal with artisanal prices. Tour is $30. Cash and Venmo only.

    Wonderful tour and tour guide. He spent time explaining everything to us in English and Spanish. He is also fluent in German. He is well traveled and extremely knowledgeable. He prepared the pour-over coffee for us to taste as well as some dark chocolate! They only accept cash & Venmo. The drive up the mountain was beautiful, but slow (poor road quality, lots of potholes, mud, windy roads). Highly recommend printing map/directions in advance as GPS is spotty. The view was amazing, and there are also tons of flora, fauna, fruit trees, herbs to see! Highly recommend!

    I loved this tour. This was my first coffee tour, but I've been to a lot of wineries...and I've never had a better time of actually learning about the agriculture. Carmelo was fantastic! Yes, he had some tangents, but they added color. And for the most part, he's a total encyclopedia and wears his love for coffee and Puerto Rico on his sleeve. Before I go any further, the comments about the road quality are so overdone. C'mon, guys. It's not the best road. I drive worse roads for hiking all the time in the northwest. If you know how to drive and go a reasonable speed, you'll be fine here. Back to the goof stuff: the views here are among the best in Puerto Rico. The coffee tasting at the end was great, too. I brew pourover at home and had fun comparing my method against Carmelo's. I'd gladly come back here again

    Absolutely amazing tour! I hate basic coffee tours that feel like they are just trying to throw any info at you and rush you out. Our host was amazing, VERY knowledgeable, took the time to explain everything and give you a visual explanation of the coffee making process. He was the most down to earth person ever, recommended other places for us to visit. He was 100% the reason the tour was this great. Other than that, very beautiful sights, I felt like I walked out with so much info. It didn't feel like you were touring a booming coffee farm. It felt very genuine, like if you were invited into someone's house for really good coffee ! WARNING: the drive up is a little difficult but very doable. AND DEFINITELY WORTH IT!!!! I was gonna do another coffee tour and my friend picked this one instead and I absolutely did not regret it and was so happy we chose this farm instead. VERY VERY Worth a little bit of a hard drive up

    This tour was fantastic. This is not a large commercial farm, but a small family owned operation focused on growing the best coffee. Our tour guide Carmelo was great and told us all about the farm and growing coffee. It was also interesting to see all the different plants growing on the farm. After the tour, Carmelo prepared some pour-over coffee for everyone. The coffee was fantastic. We also had an opportunity to taste chocolate made from cacao beans grown on the farm and it was literally the best chocolate we have ever tasted. Part of the charm of the place is the location. Leave plenty of time for the drive and the farm is high up in the mountains, far from civilization. Expect narrow and poorly maintained mountain roads. But getting there was part of the fun for us. But even if that isn't your idea of fun, the view more than make up for the drive.

    Um... I was really expecting a well-manicured, vineyard-esque experience where we learn a lot about Puerto Rican coffee and chocolate. The views are beautiful and the chocolate here is the standout. Buy them online on their website. I would rate the farm a 3.5 as a storytelling/informational experience. My warning to you is the drive to get here. It is absolutely harrowing - had I known about the drive, I would have never come. If this review is too long - skip to my last paragraph. This is really like a jungle where coffee happens to grow, and the dudes here harvest the beans by yolo'ing down a muddy cliff and tarzaning from coffee plant to coffee plant. I believe the tour was $20, have to make reservation, max party of 6. Our tour guide was Caramello, and the tour lasted 3 or 3.5 hours. What it was was really learning about coffee, all the random fruit trees and herbs they grew or happened to grow, how Maria devastated them, and what they had to endure in the aftermath. Our tour guide tongue in cheek shaded Tres Angeles, the "fancy" roaster down the street and the Puerto Rican government to boot, told us a lot about his family, and even tried to convince us that racism doesn't exist in Puerto Rico. Ok, cool dude. Having lived in a third world country before, this was a tolerable experience for me. To my friends, the tour was unbearable after the first hour. We finished an entire bottle of bug spray between the 6 of us and still got eaten alive. One of the girls in our group looked down and suddenly her leg was covered in fire ants. Every inch of the roof is covered in wasp nests - perhaps 50+ nests, and one of my group is deadly allergic to wasps. And you are right underneath for about 30min. Caramello was joking that they won't hurt you, except one time he got stung 50 times. He also dragged his hands through a giant spiderweb full of spiders and called it his friends. Really funny my dude. The bathroom is in a shack with a spigot, and if you look in any direction there are giant spiders staring at you. I went to the loo in Sandra's house - which I am surprised and appreciated that they let me - and there was a roach staring down at me from the ceiling, ants trailing everywhere, and the family's personal bar soap. Just bring hand sanitizer. Caramello talked about coffee preparation and made it a show for like 30min. Bro it's just drip in a chemex with a gooseneck... I feel like most people who would trek out here would know how to do this? The coffee is a light medium roast with strong pomelo notes. None were for sale, as they don't have enough for commercial production. The US & Maria both really fcked over Puerto Rico and it shows. While I enjoyed the tour enough, the main reason I wouldn't recommend coming here is THE FCKING DRIVE. No one told us that it was essentially a one lane road with 2-way traffic, low visibility, and constant switchbacks - you MUST honk as you come around curves. One side of the road is a steep drop off the mountain, the other a gulch trapping your backwheels because at many points, you HAVE to pull off to the side to let another car by. Did I mention there are serious potholes too? If you have a 4 wheel drive car and a driver comfortable with off roading, go for it. I personally should have been sedated for entire drive. I could not open my eyes at all on the way up or down. The locals drove by quite fast and seemed to give zero fcks. It was harrowing and would not recommend for the faint of heart. Good luck.

    Spectacular view!

    Beautiful farm and experience! Warm welcome from farm owners. I highly recommend this farm but be careful on the drive up to farm.

    Coffee farm tour 2+ hours. Interesting facts, history of the coffee industry in Puerto Rico. The farm included an abundance of vegetation. Private owners share their farm/home with you. Carmelo, our guide and farm resident was informative, knowledgeable and entertaining. He also prepared coffees and treats for the group. The road to the farm was challenging but definitely doable and surely worth the journey.

    We had a lovely morning at Sandra farms - myself, my husband and our 10yo. The tour started with an introduction to the history of coffee in general and Puerto Rico specifically. This was quite interesting although maybe a little too much, especially for my son. We really enjoyed "sorting" the seeds though, a couple more hands on activities like that at tis stage of the tour would be great. After that we took a little walk around and saw not only the coffee plants but many other fruit trees and interesting plants. My son loved this part of the tour. Also the location is beautiful and with the breezy weather it was just a pleasure to be spending time outside in this lovely place. We got lucky with the timing today and were able to see some beans being roasted which I understand might not happen during every tour: wow, what an incredible smell! Finally we got to taste the coffee on the beautiful verandah of the owners' home. This was not a rushed experience; we got to enjoy the beautiful view and relax up here while they prepared the coffee. What a treat! There was also delicious chocolate to taste which was nice because my son could keep being involved. Thank you for a lovely morning, for fitting us in last minute, and for sharing your passion and wealth of knowledge with us. In response to some other reviews: No, this is NOT a manicured "touristy" location but a real working farm where the owners live and it was a privilege to get an insight into their operations and relax on their property. Yes it's rustic but for me that was part of the charm. The road is a bit long and winding and a SUV is recommended but we've driven several much worse roads during our week here in PR.

    Excellent mountain view with spectacular fresh food. The service very attentive and friendly.read more

    I came here one Sunday morning for breakfast with my family…read more They have a system where you wait in your car before driving up. This took a while but it's necessary for parking. The views from this place are incredible! The decor, the plants and vegetation and the paintings were probably my favorite thing about Cafe Nativo. I wish I took more pictures ! The food was pretty good, I ordered a waffle with a side of bacon and asked for my tostada to come out before the food. The portions were small and the side of bacon only came with 2 pieces. My cousins dish is pictured, she ordered a sandwich con plátano fries. I've never had plátano fries until then and they were bomb! I asked for my own side of them with mayoketchup. They never came. My uncle ordered the hummus however none of this were pleased with it. There is one ingredient they don't include ( I think it's the tahini) so the consistency wasn't like typical hummus. I didn't give 5 stars because of the service. The service was painfully slow. I had to ask for my drink more than 3 times. We waited about 20 minutes in the heat for our check. Again having to ask different employees multiple times, it was ridiculous. Also the bathroom situation. There are 2 stalls in an outhouse type of thing. So waiting for the bathroom could mean you're waiting outside in the hot sun or in the rain. Yay!
