Andrew HarperFebruary 20, 2016Beautiful beach front resort. Rooms seem a bit tired. Good happy hours at the bars, but ask for referrals to area restaurants and skip the in house dining. Consider getting a car to see area sites.
BEWARE of hidden fees for EVERYTHING! Found out a week in that it was costing me $20 a DAY to park my RENTAL car! Thanks for the surprise $140 bucks to my bill! Also, buy beer elsewhere and bring it.Upvoted Nov 19, 2024- Justin TJanuary 21, 2013Hotel is nice. Clean and friendly. Watch for hidden fees like the rest state. GET A CAR. Any taxi ride over 30 min is 75$ easy. Eat at la parilla. Get booze at the store, enjoy the rest of your time.Upvoted Nov 19, 2024
Jelena BoldtJune 29, 2012Yes rent a car to do stuff like rain forest, bio bay, caving, etc. Stop at store and pick up your own 6 pack or bottle to come here to relax. Nice place, right off the beach so far so good!
ReneeApril 13, 2014Rent a car and eat at local places. Next time rent one of the private villas in the area through websites such as airbnb. You will have a better timeUpvoted Nov 19, 2024
Wanda Cruz-OcoDecember 11, 2012This is our 3rd time here. We always rent a car and eat out. The resort is amazing. The pools and the beaches are beautiful. We love it here. We Always have a a great vaca. No complaints at all.
LelderAugust 28, 2018This is a beautiful hotel who takes care of their employees. They paid them during the hurricane rebuild, even when the hotel was not operational. Highly recommend!
Brandon StrawnApril 23, 2013So much nickel-and-diming! $15-$20 to park your car, $15/day for internet, free breakfast if you go to their timeshare presentation, cheap sheets on beds, EXTREMELY loud lobby on weekend nights... etc

Caroline HaleAugust 2, 2012Rent a car- makes it a lot cheaper to do things around PR. Eat out- many fast food and pizza places around. Stop at a liquor store on your way in- drinks are expensive. However, I had the BEST time!!
Resort was nice. Avg drink is $10. Make sure u tell them to make it strong, they only give half a shot. I'm a bartender so I blew their minds when I busted them. John at lobby bar is mean. Exp. 8/10
Gina ShugartsJanuary 9, 2013Second time here. Had a fabulous time the first time, expecting the same again. Make a right up the mountain & go to Ritchie's for dinner. Expensive but u can see where ships come in from balcony
L PSeptember 15, 2015This place is beautiful and the service was fantastic Fri-Sun but come the week the service is poor. Right now the hotel is under remodel so there is a lot of noise and closures.
Sarah WenbanOctober 30, 2010Amazing place to stay! We rented a 3 room villa for 7 days and it was a great location. I recommend renting a car though; it's a 45 minute drive to Old San Juan.
Rupali SaxenaAugust 18, 2012Extremely pricey, but still an incredibly enjoyable experience. Make sure you rent your own car! Don't use the resort trip packages. It's a rip off. Visit Old San Juan and the Bacardi Rum Factory!- 787-513-7685 Affordable Taxi & Tours BOOK EARLY! Google: “Luquillo Taxi” for the Most Reputable Car Service, Limo, Taxi in Puerto Rico!

This hotel is nice, but it needs a bit of updating. Work is being done by the pool on several areas & lots of painting. Rent a car & buy drinks/food elsewhere, plus excursions will be half the price!
You must visit Vincent in the lower level bar, awesome bartender and ambassador of the hotel. Plus he makes fantastic drinks.- If you add up ALL the cost of renting a car, then you will see that it comes out to be the same price as the Luquillo Taxi package deal! Just Google "Luquillo Taxi" & check out the Tripadvisor Reviews
- Rooms are not soundproof if you end up with the room next to the elevator ask to be moved. Has a beautiful pool area, the beach is public. Forever remodeling. Food and drink $$$$ but it's a resort.
Danielle F.F.March 27, 2012This is a totally antiseptic resort. If you want to spend vaca in a clean, beautiful resort with all your American neighbors, this is your spot!
Brooke BMarch 6, 2012I absolutely love this resort. Yes, it is expenive, but all of the prices are clearly listed on their website so there are no hidden costs.
Michael IncataJuly 30, 2013Very friendly service by everyone involved. They gave us a room upgrade since ours was booked and didn't charge us anything more.
Kekoa KuhiaJune 10, 2013Rent a car and hit Walmart for food and drink. Saves a lot and you can go where you want when you want.
michael brashierAugust 4, 2013The entry guard said there is not public beach access but there is. Parking is )3.25/hr for first hour. $2.25 after that.
- Everything closes early: Tiki Bar closes at 7 :-( Other restaurants closes at 10 :-( and the entire place closes down at 2 a.m. Even the casino where no one wins!
Kara T.June 16, 2012adult pool was great but get there early or be prepared to walk in circles trying to find a chair. Why don't they have a swim up bar???
John LindnerApril 25, 2012Rent a car, it makes all the adventure tours like half price. Great time, great place, I would come back again.
Angeles RodriguezFebruary 19, 2017Fantastic place to stay with your loved one, grate ambience and personal.- Kekoa KuhiaJune 10, 2013Just FYI...the main pool with the water slide is closed right now as they are renovating it during June 2013.
- Brooke BMarch 6, 2012There is a drink special every day of the week! Today is $5 bacardi mojitos, can't beat that!
- Jelena BoldtJuly 1, 2012Ok I take it back, I'm with the rest of y'all! So far (day 2) this has been one of the most FAILED hotels we have stayed at! Livingsocial got us this time...
Ask for Coral, Cici, or Eli at the lobby bar. Got to the jacuzzi at night. Rent a car!!- Barry GreenFebruary 27, 2024Seriously overpriced. Basic things like robe and slippers missing. Did not eat there breakfast was 35 pp. Pools were nice and the grounds were also immaculate. Unless you need golf I'd look elsewhere
Everything is an extra. Know what kind of traveller you are, and whether or not you are on an expense account.
Brian LipszycApril 6, 2011Take a 10 minute $15 cab down the street and pick up your own beer and liquor. Prices at the resort are outrageous.
stephiedooJuly 18, 2015Over an hour to check in? One of the most ridiculous check-ins I've ever experienced, especially when you see multiple staff members doing nothing on the side.
Most of the staff was amazing, but the service at the Sea Breeze was terrible! Lots of waiters and waitresses chit chatting while we waited to be brought water, wrong orders.....horrible!
iROCKMYOWNSTYLEMay 28, 2013$15 bucks a plate to reheat food worth room service!!! Are the freaking crazy! They charge you for ever dreaming thing here! Just to breath will cost you $2
