    I had a great time here. The Courtyard by Marriott Isla Verde is very centrally located in San Juan close to the airport and directly by the beach. 2 beach chair and an umbrella were included. The water was very choppy but I loved going for walks by the beach. The pool is pretty warm and open 24/7. While I did enjoy the breakfast buffet, I didn't like the lunch food. No authentic Puerto Rican cuisine and very bland. The rooms were nice and we had a beach view but there were bugs sometimes. Staff were nice.

    After a long 9 hours in flight from LAX, I immediately hit the lobby bar for some food and rum lol. Really attentive service from the bartender and I went with his suggestion. Ordered the Puerto Rican longaniza sliders and truffle fries. Paired that with a 7 year old rum from Don Q. My only complaint is I wish the sliders had more meat cause they were delicious. The truffle fries were also better than some places in the mainland US.

    Take a taxi to charming Viejo San Juan,. An early breakfast at La Mollorca or Café Manolín + Café con Leche/Mollorca Pastry!

    This is one of the most wonderfully managed hotel properties on the island, it's classy and relaxing. There is often entertainment. The beach area cannot be beat! Service here is top notch and the place feels like Puerto Rico. It doesn't feel like you're in Florida or just any other sunny spot, the food the music speaks to the pride of this island! Do not hesitate to book here he will absolutely not be disappointed, it's not only a favorite of visitors. It's a favorite of locals who want the best! Enjoy, its charms and welcoming nature!!! A WINNER! A genuine Puerto Rican experience, top hospitality of fancier hotels but TOTALLY relaxing and never boring. Class all the way! PS The Bellman Staff offers warm welcome, excellent service the minute you arrive to the property! They take great pride in their work!

    Pros: 5min from airport beach front access to beach umbrellas and lounge chairs (free with wristband) casino, quick cafe, and restaurant on site the restaurant has indoor and outdoor seating huge pool area with restaurant services available poolside the quick cafe has coffee and pastries that have prices comparable to major coffee shops clean and cozy rooms with view friendly staff Cons: resort fee not fully explained at checkin upgrade fee not explained at checkin -was told I was upgraded due to Marriott status (upgraded a king partial ocean view to king full ocean view) they give a casino voucher ($5) at checkin however it's only if you spend at least the $5 upfront and it's only for table games. Paid Parking garage fee daily

    Super nice check in after 1am. Took delays stateside for weather. Casino open till 2am. No restaurant or room service open after 11pm; lame. Huge comfy rooms. No rolling brown outs today. I got upgraded to a nice partial ocean view room on the top floor 12. I am a Marriott guy and fan.

    Nice place to hang your hat for a couple of days while visiting some family nearby. The hotel has a great breakfast buffet under $20.00 and excellent service. Bar is busy at night out back with great staff who make drinks for you. Casino was adequate but took some Benjamin's from me. Comfortable room and spacious. Enjoyed the beach while we had time in the mornings this week it just happened to rain each afternoon.

    I don't usually make reviews about all of my traveles but I had to do one for this property. This resort is very attractive even though it's under construction which wasn't intrusive to the guest. It's right behind the airport which didn't bither me at all and I figured how convenient lol. The Front Desk Staff and Concierge were AMAZING and so accommodating, the Casino Staff need a hospitality/good manners course regardless if you speak English or not you can be pleasant and smile at ALL guests. The Valet/Parking Staff were awesome and hospitable. The rooms are spacious and we took advantage of our balcony daily to watch the sunrise each morning but the mattresses aren't that comfortable and the carpet needs updating. I would definitely come back but what makes me hesitant is the beach rules. The Beach Staff were collecting the chairs and umbrellas while they were occupied by seniors(My Mom being one of them), a pregnant woman and the rest of us who were relaxing. They also collect the umbrellas at 5:30 pm and 6pm they collect the chairs even though it's officially Summer and we have the difference in daylight hours. My mother is a senior citizen and that was extremely disturbing to us. We were sitting on the ground each day after the chairs were collected. In all my travels, I have never seen a practice like that at a resort. Don't get me wrong we understand rules but it didn't make any sense and it wasn't hospitable. My Mom was extremely upset the first day but we just adjusted after that so that we could enjoy ourselves. I would encourage management to come up with a better system for Summer hours especially for a beachfront resort. Other than that, I'd suggest this hotel.

    All the staff we encountered here had a friendly, positive, fun attitude. Lena checked us in and lifted our spirits. The gentleman who helped with our bags was efficient and oriented us to the room features. Raphael was our waiter in the beachfront restaurant with gorgeous view; and he was very accommodating to our diet needs and allergies. The property was very pretty and updated, and the lobby was under construction, walled off in a tasteful manner. We'd love to return to the Courtyard by Marriott Isla Verde.

    Vista is incredible!

    Casa Cuba

    -- Mi Amor, My Harbor, My Casa Casa Cuba Beach Club | Isla…read moreVerde, Carolina, Puerto Rico There are places you visit, and there are places that visit you -- that take up permanent residence somewhere between your memory and your chest, so that long after you have left, you can still feel the salt wind and hear the laughter drifting across the water. Casa Cuba Beach Club, tucked tenderly along the luminous shore of Isla Verde, is unequivocally the latter. To walk through its doors is not merely to enter a beach club. It is to accept an invitation -- warmly extended, never demanded -- into the living, breathing, sun-drenched soul of Cuban culture. A Love Letter to the Culture It Carries Cuba has always known how to celebrate the act of being alive. It is a culture that does not wait for a special occasion; it creates one -- out of a shared plate, a glass of something cold and golden, a melody that arrives uninvited and stays forever. Casa Cuba understands this at a molecular level. From the moment you arrive at Calle Gardenia #10, the spirit of the island -- the other island, the one ninety miles of imagination away -- wraps itself around you like a grandmother's embrace: unannounced, absolute, and impossible to refuse. The setting conspires beautifully with the culture it houses. The Caribbean stretches out before you in that particular shade of blue that painters have been attempting and failing to capture since Columbus first pointed at it in bewilderment. The breeze does not so much blow as sigh, warm and indolent, carrying with it the fragrance of the sea and something frying somewhere nearby that makes the heart quicken with anticipatory hunger. The Kitchen: Where Memory Is Cooked Daily The restaurant offers criolla-Cuban cuisine prepared daily in their kitchen, right at the best spot on Isla Verde beach The Christian Metal Realm -- and one suspects the ocean views are not merely incidental but are, in fact, a key ingredient in every dish. The Ropa Vieja arrives as it should: a tender, slow-cooked confession of shredded beef that has surrendered entirely to its sofrito, a dish that tastes less like food and more like a Cuban grandmother's Sunday afternoon made edible. The Ajiaco -- that ancient, noble stew that has nourished the Cuban spirit for centuries -- is rendered here with the kind of reverence it deserves, a broth so deeply layered it reads like a biography. The Tamales carry within their corn-leaf wrapping the compressed history of a people who have always known that the most profound things come in humble packages. Even the Churrasco, that beautiful borrowed Argentine gift, is handled here with Cuban flair -- seasoned with mojo, served with the confidence of something that has nothing to prove. Every bite is an act of cultural transmission. Every plate is a postcard from Havana addressed to your soul. The Club: Community as an Art Form What elevates Casa Cuba beyond the merely excellent into the genuinely irreplaceable is that it is, at its heart, a community. It is a private members club Discogs -- and yet nothing about it feels exclusive in the cold, velvet-rope sense of the word. Rather, it feels exclusive in the way that a family home feels exclusive: you are either family, or you are about to become family, and the transition happens faster than you expect. The Círculo Cubano de Puerto Rico, the cultural society that breathes life into this institution, has built here a sanctuary where Cuban identity -- its music, its cuisine, its irrepressible joy, its stubborn capacity for beauty in the face of everything -- is not merely preserved but practiced. It is a living archive. It is a celebration disguised as a beach club. The Shore: An Accomplice in Delight The beach at Isla Verde does not play a supporting role here -- it is a co-star of the highest order. The water shimmers. The afternoons dissolve languidly into evenings that nobody wants to end. The sound of waves provides the rhythm section to whatever music drifts out from the club, and together they compose something that cannot be named but is immediately recognized by anyone who has ever felt, just for a moment, that they were exactly where they were supposed to be. A Final Word There is a Cuban concept -- difficult to translate, easy to feel -- of sabor. It means flavor, yes, but it means so much more: the taste of something that is wholly itself, the sensation of encountering something that has not compromised, not diluted, not apologized for what it is. Casa Cuba Beach Club has sabor in abundance. It is sunshine and salt and slow-cooked love. It is the sound of dominos on a table and the smell of coffee and the feeling of sand between your toes and the knowledge -- warm and certain -- that somewhere, somebody is about to bring you something wonderful. Go. Stay longer than you planned. Come back before you have fully left. Hasta siempre, Casa Cuba. Hasta siempre.

I had to work in the lobby while they cleaned our room and the high tables made working easier. There is a fragrance in the lobby that irritates my allergies though. Front desk: service is hit or miss depending on who is working the front desk but all employees are professional. Arrival: we came by Uber and the staff is outside the car door ready to assist with luggage and whatever else you might have that needs to be unloaded. Bar: we received some drink vouchers. We ordered the free drink with passion fruit. Our bartender was a young man with curly hair and he made a great drink! Room: sleep quality is very good to excellent!! The hotel is always hopping and we were able to have a good night sleep. Only during our second night, did I briefly hear a neighbor slam a door, but other than that nothing. The door is very comfortable and large with plenty of seating and a nice balcony to see the ocean. We were here on work so not having a desk made work challenging but the coach really helped with the large table. It worked perfect! Mini fridge, safe, and nice Nespresso coffee machine. The room is surface clean meaning it appears clean, but if you wear white socks, they will turn black. A/C: there are some quirky setting on the A/C. If you don't put it on recirculate, the room will get hot at night. WIFI: It is hit and miss. Day 1 i had to use my phone as a hotspot to connect to a work call. Day 2 the WIFI was strong for my conference calls. Front room: nice large coach with separate TV but the window was weird and not very private but the extra sliding door helped. Bathroom: excellent lightening and vent fan in the bathroom. Very spacious. Room service: Make sure to put the sign on your door or room service can take a very long time to get to your room. After breakfast I put out the sign and I was serviced quickly within 2 hours. The first day I forgot to put out the sign and the room was not serviced until after 5pm. Pools: there is a nice pool and beach access.

Review is based on a four night stay. Overall, I recommend La Concha. It's a Marriott affiliate with some personality and class. Arrival: Arrived by Uber. Helpful doormen and luggage attendants. Check in: Overall good check in process. Marriott status acknowledged with a serious room upgrade to a suite. Room was not yet ready, and the receptionist gave us some free drink vouchers for the bar. Room (954): A spacious sweet. Living room included a colossal sectional, large TV, dresser, and breakfast table. The living room also included a Nespresso machine and a mini-refrigerator. Bedroom included a king bed with a bench and nightstands. One negative about this suite: lack of a desk. I was on business, and working from the sofa sectional got old fast. Bathroom: Excellent lighting. Spacious and clean shower. Bed: Decent but not great mattress. Sleep quality: Above average Patio: Nice patio with two chairs and a small table; really enjoyed drinking coffee on the patio watching the surf. WiFi: WiFi when it worked was generally fast. But I missed a video conference due to poor connectivity the day before we left. Housekeeping: Overall housekeeping was good, but the floors were not thoroughly cleaned before our arrival or during our stay. Pools and beach: Multiple pools to lounge by. Great poolside food and drink service. Nice beach (but it can be dangerous to swim at times) with typical seaweed issues. Staff: All of the hotel staff we encountered were friendly and helpful. Great staff overall! Value: Overall good value Overall common area cleanliness: Excellent Misc Tips: (1) There are many decent restaurants within walking distance. (2) There's a large grocery store called SuperMax about 1 mile away.

    Worst Hotel Experience - Misleading Photos & Unprofessional Management…read more We recently stayed at TRYP by Wyndham in San Juan, Puerto Rico, and it was without a doubt the worst hotel experience we've ever had. We had booked this stay to celebrate a special occasion--our anniversary--and were extremely disappointed from the moment we arrived. To be clear, this review is not a reflection of the front desk reception staff, who were courteous and doing their job. However, the property itself was nothing like the photos advertised on Expedia. The exterior of the hotel was run down and immediately gave off an unwelcoming, neglected impression. Despite our initial concerns, we tried to keep an open mind and proceeded to park our rental car and check in. The experience quickly went downhill from there. As soon as we stepped into the elevator, it was clear that cleanliness was not a priority. The floors were dirty, the walls had visible smudges, and it was obvious the area had not been properly cleaned or maintained. We hoped things would improve once we got to our room--but it only got worse. The hallway leading to our room had a strong, unpleasant odor--like mildew or damp laundry left out for too long. When we entered our room, we were absolutely appalled. The shower was filthy, with so much buildup on the glass door that you could barely see through it. The tiles were broken, the caulking was cracked and discolored, and there was an accumulation of grime in the corners that made it clear the bathroom hadn't been properly cleaned in years. We were in the room for less than two minutes before deciding we could not stay there. We immediately returned to the front desk to ask for a refund, completely disgusted by the conditions. That's when things took an even worse turn. We were told a manager named Juan would assist us. Unfortunately, Juan was completely unhelpful and unprofessional. He brought us to see an "upgraded" room with an ocean view, which was just as bad--scratched-up mini fridge, dirty nightstand with old drink residue, and no real improvement in cleanliness or quality. When we told him we still weren't comfortable and offered to pay for one night if they released the rest of the reservation, Juan became difficult and dismissive. He refused to let us speak to a manager named Griselda, despite multiple requests. He insisted he was the only one in charge and claimed the reservation couldn't be refunded because of Expedia's policies--even though Expedia told us it was refundable. We were only able to resolve the issue after offering Juan $100 in cash--at which point he finally agreed to release the reservation and process the refund. Ironically, we witnessed him smoking cigarettes while on duty, which tells you everything you need to know about the level of professionalism at this property. We left and walked one minute down the street to Royal Sonesta, which was a true 5-star experience and exactly the kind of place that matched our expectations for a special celebration. TRYP by Wyndham San Juan is a complete misrepresentation of what is advertised online. It is dirty, outdated, and poorly managed. Juan, in particular, has no business working in hospitality--his behavior was sketchy at best, and I will be disputing the charge with my bank, as I have video proof of him confirming the refund. Avoid this place at all costs. Spend your money somewhere you'll be treated with respect and provided with a clean, safe place to stay.

    Not many people write about three star hotels. First of all, they aren't exciting, not at all as a…read morematter of fact. Secondly, they are generally not bad enough to write an intriguing story about finding a dead rodent in the bed. Thus, they fall into the general category of: it's there, there is nothing to say about it. As the first time visiting this particular brand segment of Wyndham, it was a rather pleasant surprise. While the roof above the car pull-up area may have been leaking, there was a gentleman opening the door. The lobby interior is solid, in some elements beautiful for its star level. Front desk was to the point, without too much friendliness or rudeness. The room was decently sized and while no upgrade was provided despite status, it had extremely comfortable feather pillows. All elements of the room were clean and WiFi worked flawlessly. The room is quite nice design wise for a property of this caliber also. As a whole, this Tryp by Wyndham property is best compared to an Aloft or a Hyatt Place. It gives a good night's rest and is a solid representation of what a 3 star hotel should be.
