Fajardo Hotels

Grounds

Dated palomino beach area. Mildew smell in elevator

The location was great, the views were great and palomino island was pretty cool.

everything was overpriced and low quality. Let me clairfy: 1. Ate at two of the resort restaurants and paid 200 bucks for frozen fish while we were right on the Caribbean. 2. The resort itself was not well maintained (closed/vacant buildings, closed/vacant pathways, aging ferries etc.) 3. The "convenience" store which sold various groceries was comically overpriced. 25 bucks for a bottle of 5 dollar yellowtail, come on. I ended up driving 5 minutes to the local CVS and spending 5 bucks on a six pack. 4. Valet took at least 30 minutes to get your car. 5. Weird credit card/prepaid room charge of 100 dollars/night that we probably wouldn't have spent had we not had the money prepaid. 6. Drinks were weak and expensive 7. Staff was marginal at best w/ the exception of the bell boys. 8. Coqui water park is 20 bucks/person for 2-3 water slides 9. The only reason to stay on the resort is because it was so difficult to get off the resort. (from our room we had to get on the fenicular (sp?), walk a mile, get on an elevator, and walk another mile, then wait for 30 min for the valet to maybe get our car. 10. The fenicular (sp?) had a security guard inside whose presence was unnecessary. Being situated in the middle of the track, half the time we had to get on going in the wrong direction to go to where we wanted AND there was no way to just walk/take the stairs from the marina to the main resort area that we could find. 11. Free hotel wifi was nonfunctional. The list goes on, but to summarize, overall the resort had a thin veneer of luxury which was quickly unmasked by simply walking through the campus. I will not recommend anybody stays here longer than the day that is required to check out palomino and palominito islands and furthermore believe that this should be demoted to a 2 or 3 star resort as it doesn't come close to any 4 star resorts I have been to in the world.

We loved the beach view from our balcony, atmosphere and beautiful location of the hotel. The breakfast each morning was delicious and abundant. It was easy to take a beach stroll, and the hotel desk staff provided us with a map and information as to where to go, depending on what kind of beach area we wanted. The beach directly in front of the hotel is surfer friendly and decent for a stroll, but not for swimmers, at least during the red-flag conditions at our time there. Walking westward on the beach however, provides great views, some more shallow and calm wading areas, and even some coral and sea life sightings! We would definitely stay again - it is an affordable place to stay that is located a reasonable distance from El Yunque Rainforest, San Juan sights, and the ferry to Culebra island for a day trip.

The neighborhood was not the classiest, but we felt safe enough to walk the beach at night. We appreciated the gated parking and locked entry to the hotel as an extra assurance.

The view from our room was worth a million dollars, the place is private, only 7 rooms in the hotel. Hiking trails right at the doorsteps.

No electric outlet in the room, hot water runs for 5 minutes only, no staff around only one guy cooking breakfast.

the staff was super helpful and knowledgable in suggesting places to eat and things to do.

everything was dated. the comforters and bed sheets were really old. although i bet they were clean, they felt dirty. we did not feel comfortable sleeping.

Staff was very friendly and helpful. Facilities were extremely clean and we felt secure.

The location was excellent. It was a few steps from the ferry to Culebra and Vieques. The rooftop patio was also great to hang out on.

The location to the Fajardo Ferry which goes to Culebra and Vieques.

The weird staff, lack of anything to eat in the area.

Fantastic location in the forest with incredible views; extremely helpful owner (we had some special needs because of our schedule, and the owner did everything to help us, our big thanks to him).

This hotel was overlooking the beach. Great views and sounds of waves crashing on the beach.

A bit sketchy area to be around at night. Dark and not much in the area to walk to.

It's right on a beautiful secluded beach, and just around the corner from the Kiosks.
