We called Oceanfront ahead of time and let them know this was our honeymoon, the lady offered us a room right on the ocean and of course we excitedly agreed! The price was under $100 for the night and we were so happy when we arrived. Our room's door opened right up to a deck that had stairs leading down to the crashing waves. Above us were two restaurants attached to Oceanfront. One was typical puerto rican food and the other was a sushi place. We ordered mofongo and enjoyed the beachfront views at night, with flickering candlelight at our table, and listened to the waves of the ocean while eating a delicious meal and refreshing drinks. I will definitely be returning for the views, food, and price!

There is kitchen containing a fridge, stove, cabinets for storage, a washer and dryer and more. One thing however that was major is that it has an infestation problem. I found 3 American cockroaches inside the bathroom door. Imagine my fear and disgust as I went to grab my towel and saw 3 cockroaches right behind it. One crawled under my bed and now I am not sleeping tonight. I liked the hotel but it just needs to be cleaner and remove its unwanted guests.

I will start with all the positive things this resort has to offer. First of all, as you can see in…read moremy photos, the beach here is insane! Probably the best beach in the whole island of PR. The beach is free/for the people however this resort/the owner owns that whole lot in front of this beach. Which is why you pay 300$ a night for a cabin/house here right in front of this amazing beach called "Montones". Once you are a guest in this resort you are able to park your car there, where its safe, and simply walk back and forth from the beach to your cabin. This, in my opinion, is the only reason this place has lasted for 30+ years here in Isabela, Puerto Rico. And the reason they are able to over-charge their guests for their stay. Now, the problem with the cabin per se is that you pay as much as a 5 star hotel per night yet you do not receive the same quality inside the cabin as you would in another resort. For example, we were in a cabin for 6 ppl, 3 bedrooms and only one bathroom. The kitchen was microscopic, the fridge was minuscule and the dining table was for four ppl. The tiny TV didn't work without internet and the wifi was non existent. The living seats and balcony seats were one of the most uncomfortable seats I've seated before. The bathroom was pretty beat up and the bed sheets were worse than a hospital's bed sheets and the AC units were only in the 3 bedrooms and not in the common areas. In other words the inside of the cabin needs some MAJOR updates PRONTO! I know- who cares? I was walking distance from one of the most wonderful and beautiful beaches of this island. Yet when you pay 300$ + a night it stings a bit. Overall would I stay here again? Absolutely. Because of montones beach and the accessibility of this amazing piece of heaven! Not because of the quality/updates of the resort.

I don't recommend stay here because you pay way to much for the low quality given. the best part was the tub in the room other than that definitely not worth it.

Although he'd reserved a studio, when we arrived, we found we had been upgraded to a one-bedroom unit, as the studio's door was being repaired. Late check in was very easy. The property's deck is large and has a gorgeous view of the beach directly below. You really cannot beat the location of Villa Tropical on Shacks. We enjoyed drinking our coffee on the deck whilst watching the sun rise in the mornings before grabbing our gear and walking down the short flight of steps to the sand. The gift shop within the office is a major time saver, too, when you need a drink or snack but don't want to drive. The Econo supermarket is only about an 8-minute drive away, though, when you do want to do a grocery run. It was awesome having a fully stocked kitchen and being able to cook and eat in most meals. We loved grilling on the deck at sunset! The Ola Lola restaurant is a cute spot a short walk away for food or drinks when one would rather skip cooking, too, and in each room, there is a very thorough guide compiled by the management with information on where to find all kinds of things in the area, from film development to entertainment. It was extremely convenient to be able to do laundry on the premises also. The staff are super helpful and maintain VT very well. Our unit (1B) was clean and comfortable, and by the end of our stay, we had fallen into a nice, homey routine. I was sad to leave and understand why Shacks is a place so many return to every year. The beach is clean, the big waves break far from the shore, there are interesting reefs for snorkeling, many days have adequate wind for kitesurfing, and there is a friendly surfer community among those who stay in the area both longer term and seasonally.

It is definitely a challenging course, but one that is incredibly enjoyable to play. The practice range is beautifully maintained, and the putting green is impressively large. The entire staff was friendly, welcoming, and attentive. The ladies in the clubhouse greeted us with warm smiles throughout our visit, and the pro shop team took great care of us. We never felt rushed and were able to truly enjoy every moment on the course. Taking in the stunning coastline of Isabela, Puerto Rico while playing was a once-in-a-lifetime experience. The scenery is simply remarkable, with dramatic ocean views around nearly every turn. My husband and I were smiling from tee to tee and soaking in every second of our round. I managed to lose both sleeves of golf balls along the way, but it was impossible to be upset because I was having the time of my life! We have played golf courses all over the world, and Royal Isabela is truly a gem. Between the world-class course conditions, exceptional staff, and some of the most breathtaking views imaginable, this is a golfing experience we will never forget. Remarkable, outstanding, and worth every moment. Highly recommended.

There was absolutely nothing special about this experience. No one on the staff tried to make up for any of this. We will not likely return. What a disappointment.

This is the reason why I would give them the 5 stars. However, if you're planning on staying there DON'T. I don't know about the big villas but we stayed in the superior hotel room which was lousy.

The ocean literally licks the side of the building at high tide, and the beach you have direct stairway access to is great for snorkeling and surfing. It also has some intense currents which will kill you, so dont be a clown; if you are not a strong swimmer, don't go in beyond your belly button. We saw a lot of weak swimmers need an intervention. Outside of that, the snorkeling in the cove blew me away and it was a delight to have daily access to that snorkeling environment. Tropical storms will clearly impact visibility, but failing that the snorkeling conditions are excellent.

Also the people were extremely nice and helpful, especially the night guard. He was very friendly, although spoke very very little English, no worries, I was able to practice my broken Spanish ;-) and our AC worked well and the room stayed very cool and comfortable the entire stay. Now for the negatives, the room could use a good refresher. Nothing complicated, but a fresh coat of paint, some newer bedding and maybe some newer furniture. At first appearance it looked a little run down on the inside. I wasn't looking for luxury, in fact my husband and I were specifically looking for something quaint and "local" which definitely described the Pelican Reef apartments. I would return again. I miss that view I woke up to every morning!!
