An Oasis in San Juan

What an amazing property Coqui del Mar is. Hotel is overall well kept. We stayed at their biggest room, Orange Room, which has a HUGE kitchen, living room, and cute little bathroom. The property is generally well kept, although some areas started to show its age and could use refreshing, i.e. shower in the bathroom, appliances in the kitchen, plants around properties that are not well trimmed, outdoor furniture and turf around hot tub that started to show its age. Location is somewhat walkable, a few restaurants, grocery, and walking distance to the beach. It's also in a gated community that boost the safety while at the hotel. In typical San Juan fashion, there are some areas near the hotel that is a little "sketchy" but you learn to avoid it. Having a safe haven for LGBTQ+ community is such a rare sight these days and Coqui del Mar definitely checks out in that department! We built friendship with other guests, something you can't do at a chain hotel! Definitely a plus! Communication with the hotel was also flawless and they have the best, most courteous staff members! It's a rarity to see hotel staff who cares about their job and want to make sure the guests are comfortable during their stay! I will absolutely stay here again on my next Puerto Rican trip!

SO WONDERFUL!!

this place was the PERFECT location! I had the most warm welcoming and met all the staff during my stay. It was great weather and the amenities were awesome and convenient. I even had the opportunity to meet the host and he even took me out for the night of delicious food! The chef came to my door every morning asking if I wanted breakfast. The beach is minutes away on foot!! Hearing the waves and hearing the breeze was a great way of going to sleep! Will definitely stay again...if available.

Its nice but would not return

Very difficult review as I have mixed feelings about the property. Check in was great, Alejandro showed us around and explained the amenities and was very cordial, so was Ron and loved coqui the dog. They had nice touches like free coffee and snacks. Felt very community like. However,the property has a few issues. We did not get room service for 2 nights and the one night we did, they just made the bed. No towel change, empty trash, etc. The rooms are very spartan and dated. Our bed was on shipping pallets! limited space to store items and the wardrobe had missing handles on one of the 2 drawers. Linens are extremely worn, torn and old. Exterior wise, they had a community fridge, it was a total mess and disgusting, the handles needed a good clean, it was just nasty all around. The ice machine was a joke, a toy in reality. Great for a home but not for a hotel. One issue did not bother me at all but it did bother my partner, was that we learned that Coqui is the name of a small frog that sings all night, and they sing loud. So be warned that you may be in a room where it will be loud. To us, it was not worth the extra money paid to stay in a LGBT friendly place.

This place was great! Everything was perfect, beyond nice the customer arrive, the comfort, everything was amazing, the only problem is the price it’s a bit over the top pricy because it’s building it’s not fancy, but I guess I need to book earlier to get a better deal.

AMAZING. Perfect place to stay!

One word, AMAZING! The people at Coqui Del Mar were truly amazing. Upon arrival you are met at the gate and shown the property and to your room. Shortly after you'll get an informational text that is SUPER helpful! The rooms are amazing. The property is perfect. Everyone is super laid back. You will not regret your stay. The pools and hot tub provide the perfect place to escape the world. There are some great walking distance options for your needs. I was there for work but can't wait to return again soon!

Helpful and friendly

We enjoyed our stay at Coqui del Mar. The rooms are like individual cabins on the property. It has a very communal and welcoming feel. You got to know the other guests because people would hang out at the pools and jacuzzis, especially in the evenings. It was a mix of ages and body types, very relaxed. The managers were helpful and organized day trips. The bed was comfortable and with the kitchenette, you could be self-sufficient for a longer stay. Location is by the beach and they have chairs + umbrellas to borrow for free. Breakfast was an odd mix, but usually all right. They could fix up some little things around the property (our shower curtain was hanging on its last two holes), but nothing was a major issue and the managers were really attentive when you brought something up. Would definitely stay again.

I really enjoyed my 5 day stay. The owners of the property communicated with individual text messages shortly after my flight arrived. They informed me of the status of my room. Then they let me know when the room was ready. When I arrived at the property I was greeted and given an orientation and shown my room. The neighborhood is safe. The property is safe. It is a 5 minute walk to the beach and a 10 minute walk to the grocery store. There are many restaurants within walking distance. There is a small area within the guesthouse that has items left behind by other guests for community use. This is an excellent idea. From toiletries to ice to drinks, they have it. While I didn't have breakfast or brunch, they do have that and will even make some delicious mimosas for you! Keep in mind this area is clothing optional, so please be comfortable with that. There was no body shaming or anything. There was no presence of drugs during my stay which was nice. There are two small pools and a nice jacuzzi. Guests regularly gathered there and had a great time! The staff is very friendly and clean all areas of the Guesthouse. Because of COVID they do not enter your room, but you can request extra towels and items or service. I did not need any extra service. I had a rental car and was able to park directly in front. I didn't need the car most of the time. Uber works just fine and will arrive in less than 10 minutes and the driver's have great suggestions. I will stay here again!

A Special Place

If you are looking for a cookie cutter hotel, this is NOT the place for you. If you are looking for a place with unique character, a few rough edges, a lot of Kitch, and a warm, cozy/personal feel, you’ll find it here. The hosts are highly attentive, but relaxed. It’s 420 friendly and clothing optional, but never to the point of being offensive to those who choose not to participate. Certainly not the place for everyone, but perfect for some. Sometimes I prefer the predictability of a chain, but if I’m looking for a special place to relax for a while, I’d definitely return.

Not advertised as such, but this is a LGBT hotel apparently exclusively. Non LGBT will be the odd one out. Small pool is very clean however the larger pool has a lot of lime. Larger pool also hosts quite risquee situations in the evenings, which can be uncomfortable if non LGBT. If I had known what it was, I would have booked elsewhere...

A wonderful relaxing "Home Away From Home"

Rob and "V" and Ien (pronounced like Ian) were great hosts. From the moment I arrived they welcomed me and after checking in, Ien gave me a tour of the facility. This is an intimate, "flavor of Puerto Rico" accommodations owned and managed by Rob and V. who also live on the property. It was nice that the door also had a screen door for wonderful evening and early morning cross breeze through to the kitchen windows. Air conditioning was VERY QUIET which I cant say that for some of the more expensive hotels! It is only 12 minutes from the airport and 1 block in from the beach! My suite was very clean and had a full kitchen. I was in P.R. on business so I really appreciated the plentiful outlets that were well placed and the internet was excellent for my work in my room. The "coffee bar" in the mornings is very quaint and well stocked with all the condiments. I highly recommend signing up for the Mojito class on Thursday nights. So much fun!!! They have 2 pools. One is secluded - clothing optional for nice a change of pace!! LOL I must say, the location was excellent - each time I used UBER (3 times), someone was there within 2 minutes! A couple of local restaurants within 20 min walk but there is also UBER EATS along with pizzas for delivery I travel a lot for business to P.R and have always stayed at the normal corporate hotels. Now I will always stay at the Coqui del Mar. I shouldn't tell all this - I'm afraid it will be full when I make plans!!

Great stay!

My wife and I spent three days at Coqui del Mar. The hotel is located in a quiet street and one block from the beach. We arrived around noon and didn't have any problems with check-in. Ian is a fantastic host, he gave us a thorough explanation about the hotel and amenities. We stayed at the Taino room, next to the pool. There were some free night group activities such as mojito preparation, unfortunately we couldn't attend any. I enjoyed the free fresh coffee and mangoes from the mango tree. I will definitely stay here in my next visit to San Juan.

A guest house that feels like home 🏡

What a pleasant stay! I found Coqui Del Mar Guest House on Hotels.com and after reviewing many other places, settled on this guest house because I figured for the price of sleeping a family. of five, it couldn't be beat. It was SO much more! We felt like family from the moment that we arrived and the owner Rob, has always been available via phone, text or email. Ian, the onsite house manager is amazing! So friendly, accommodating and attentive to our family's needs (and we realize that they are now moving to an 18+ facility, but thankfully kept our reservation and made us feel welcomed). You have access to pool/ocean toys, free coffee in the morning, towels for the beach/pool/hot tub and a guest refrigerator where folks leave food they haven't consumed, so nothing goes to waste! We had fresh mangos from the mango tree outside of our room and all the amenities we needed in our kitchen, with the exception of a spatula, but we made it work! There's an outdoor grill that we used several times. A short, 5 minute walk to the beach and a quick drive to everything. If we have the fortune of coming back, we would stay here in a heartbeat! Thank you for the awesome stay!
