Isla Verde is packed with the big hotel chains, but this adorable boutique hotel right on the water can't be beat. It has so much charming character. The rooms are clean. The staff is friendly and helpful. There is complimentary parking. Fall asleep to the sound of the coqui frogs. This hotel shares access to the same beach as The... More

My husband and two friends stayed here not really knowing what to expect as the reviews were mixed. But I had stayed in Puerto Rico before at the large Marriott resort and casino and wasn't impressed. We paid $140 a night here (which was by far the cheapest considering most places like the El San Juan and Ritz were close... More

Id beat the living crap out of anybody who enjoyed this place. Me and my wife still have bite marks on our legs and feet and its been about one week since we left. Mojitos good. Food good but overpriced. Breakfast good. Nighttime patio view good. But after paying 160$ a night, I couldn't even get shampoo or razors. Death... More

I stayed at this hotel in mid January. I was there with my family and we had three rooms, so this gave us an overall feel for the hotel. First, the owner and his wife are very nice. I thought everyone that worked there went out of their way to be accommodating. The view is very pretty from the ocean... More

I'm not sure why so many great reviews, I think, I smell a rat here. Honest, the place is run down, furniture is very old, view? what view? we requested a room with an ocean view and what they gave us one with a view of a palm tree and the roof of the dinining room area. They charged us... More

We stayed at La Playa for 5 days, pre cruise. it is a very small 12 room hotel, most rooms on 2nd floor, which for a start was difficult as I use a walker. The lower floor is completely open, with ocean breezes flowing through. the patio is directly on the water, one could dive in but for waves and... More

This is a small hotel near the airport and basically on Isle Verde Beach. The hotel is on the water but does not have a beach but the beach is just across the entrance to the hotel. The staff are very helpful and the rooms are very clean. Breakfast is basic, mostly bagels, cereal coffee, and juice. Only a few... More

We checked-in at midnight after the long flight from Australia. Looked sleazy from the outside and not much better within. We picked La Playa because of its location on the beach and close by the airport. That is all that it's got. The noisy music was our first concern but the manager guaranteed us that the rooms were soundproof.....that should... More

We didn't know where to stay in Puerto Rico as we have never been here before. My brother was traveling on business with his family and they were staying at the Ritz Carlton right down the street. We were happy to find a reasonable hotel so close to the Ritz but we were a little worried that it might not... More
