A really nice place to stay, great location close to everything you need. Eyal was really nice, and always making sure you feel home away from home. I totally recommended.

Eya's place is great, clean and very comfortable. We loved staying there. He was very helpful with all the information about places to visit. We had a great experience with Eyal.

Eyal's place was really good. Simple,but clean and comfortable. The location is not a city centre,but it's close to restaurants,shops,we went to many places to visit from there very fast:) Eyal is a really nice guy,he helped us to find where to eat local food,where to find a grosery store,he even told us about wonderful caves in Cabo Rojo area that we actually went to and were very happy about that. So I strongly recommend Eyal's place as a great choice!:)

The host was so nice. Definitely would recommend this place to people who are looking for a nice place to stay. Very close to everything we wanted to do.

My stay was business and the place was very close to the meeting place. Eyal is a very good host.

Eyals place is perfect if you're looking for somewhere to settle down for the night If you're cruising the west part of the island. Well traveled, friendly, open-minded thanks for the last minute accommodation. Muchas Gracias.

Eyal was a great host! He provided us with lots of information for things to do in Puerto Rico. I would definitely recommend staying here! His place is perfect!

Very helpful sweet person and a very nice home.

Nice spot!

Azura is a kind individual and wonderful host! I had a rough time locating the cabin, however, I had no trouble contacting Azura and Azura had no problem meeting up with me to take me to the cabin. She went out of her way twice to meet up with me. She also prepared a fruit basket for me. Highly recommend!

The home is on a lush spot at the top of a hill, surrounded by nature. It is quiet and relaxing (which we were seeking to get away from the craziness of Boqueron). The owner was super attentive, communication was great and at the end of our stay she took our suggestions very well. The place has a nice balcony overlooking the jungle but inside it is humble, worn down and it is someone's house when not being rented.

This place was full of rustic charm. It's a very quiet and peaceful getaway, but close to highway 2 which is a quick route to Mayagüez, Cabo Rojo, or the south of PR. I needed a place near the hospital in Mayagüez, so this was perfect. I wish I'd been able to spend more time on the front porch admiring the view. I only caught one sunset. I would prepare people that this is not a luxury hotel room. It's a cabin in the mountains. A bit more "camping", than "resorting". I unfortunately never got to meet the owner, but every interaction was prompt and helpful. Her directions there were perfect (but essential ).

We had such a lovely time at the mountain home! It's located in a lush, green, quiet part of Puerto Rico. A bit off the beaten path, it's still close to everywhere we wanted to go. This place had everything we wanted in an Airbnb -but if you're looking for luxury and creature comforts, this might not be the place for you. Nina was super kind and helpful and excited to show us a great time. We would stay here again!

The house is located on the top of a hill and would be very difficult to find, but Azura was kind enough to meet us at a central location and let us follow her car. She also gave us a great dinner recommendation (El Tesoro Escondido, which lived up to its name). While not luxurious, this is the ideal peaceful mountain retreat.

The host canceled this reservation 28 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.

Lugar tranquilo, muy limpio, de fácil acceso y equipado con todo lo necesario. José es un gran anfitrión y nos ayudó en todo. Muy recomendado para viajes de negocios y estadias cortas como fue mi caso.

Excelente apartamento. Zona Interior y exterior EXCELENTE. Solo tienes que llevar la ropa. Gracias por José y su esposa! Dios los bendice siempre!!!!

It was an incredible place. The apartment is great and includes a lot of utilities. If you are looking for a nice and secure place in the west of Puerto Rico; this it is. Definitely will be booking again soon.

Muy a gusto con el trato recibido! Jose siempre estuvo muy pendiente a mi llegada y en contacto todo el tiempo. Sólo estuve 1 noche, pero 100% segura de regresar!

Mostly great place, few bugs but it's Puerto Rico it's normal. Washing machine was a little abonbao but overall it was a clean place.

Very clean, nice place to stay!

Excellent host, great place.

A really nice place to stay, with everything you need. Close to nice restaurants and not far from the beach.

Sarah es muy atenta y amable. En todo momento estuvo al pendiente de lo que pudiéramos necesitar, sin duda la recomendaria.

My boyfriend and I stayed at the Ark for 3 nights while visiting the west coast of PR. The Ark is absolutely beautiful! The botanical garden is definitely a sight to see! The space is just as described and includes everything you'll need like kitchen appliances, bath towels, wifi, etc. Best part about our stay in the Ark was the sounds from the birds and the coqui. We were not able to meet with Matt but the directions he provides got us there no problem. The neighbors Carmen and Tito were very sweet and helped us with a tour of the space and gave us some more recommendations on top of Matt's. The ark was an amazing experience and the price can't be beat!

Words can't explain, THE ARK is nature lover paradise with such a knowledgable and accommodating host, I couldn't ask for more, Matt is great some one you want to meet and if he is not there Carmen is so helpful that she drove to come and get me, thank you Carmen! this open air house make you feel you leave on a tree house where birds talk to each other at night so distinct and wind blows so gently with sound of trees ! we are talking about a 1500 sq. ft 2bd rm / 2 bath well equipped with every thing you need in it house ! and is located in botanic tropical forest as beautiful as El Yunque rain forest in NE of the island information Matt provides is very helpful, great fruits .

Matt was exceptionally helpful and informative. When we had difficulty locating the Ark, he sent Carmen to where we were and we followed her back to the guesthouse. The accommodations were exactly as shown in pictures and the description.

It was a real treat to stay at the Ark Guesthouse! Nice inviting and comfortable house with all the conveniences you need. Comfortable dining table on deck where we enjoyed our meal and later turned off all lights to be in the secluded darkness surrounded by nature and listen to the soothing sounds of the evening. We felt very safe there. The gardens are absolutely amazing-gorgeous beyond description! Our host was very good and checked in on us to be sure we had all we needed. Carmen, our greeter, was so kind. Very friendly, gave us a tour, made us feel comfortable and picked fresh fruit for us. Good communication with our reservation which we much appreciated. We would rent here again. Wonderful retreat!

It was an amazing property, and the view from the deck in particular was beautiful. The sounds of nature were definitely a highlight as well. The place was as listed, except that there was no a/c. As we were staying in early June, this was not very comfortable. Matt was excellent and very responsive in dealing with the issue. He informed me that a permanent unit was due to be installed soon (nothing moves too fast in PR) and that there were portable a/c units available for the bedrooms if wanted. It would be good to check the status with the host before booking in the summer. If you plan on using the property to explore the area and won't be inside much during the day, the portable a/c units could work out for you at night. I would definitely stay again (although probably not in summer) and recommend this place for a truly unique experience.

From the moment we pulled into the driveway we knew the Ark was the place for us. Filled with lush plants and fruit trees, the property was a slice right out of The jungle book. Matt showed us a cinnamon tree, rainbow eucalyptus trees, vanilla bean vines, and countless other amazing fruits and flowers growing on the property, we even climbed a few of the trees. We saw Cacao and jack fruits, star fruit and picked bananas. The flowers were beautiful and the property was full of things to see(URL HIDDEN)The home is very comfortable with a great kitchen and lovely outside deck area for gazing out into the jungle. We went to sleep every night serenaded by a chorus of Coqui frogs. The water pressure was great and Matt was more than accommodating, even lending us snorkeling gear to use for a few days. Matt's directions to the property were easy to follow, and we arrived without any difficulties. Matt was easy to reach before we arrived, and always responded quickly to our calls and E-mails. There was Wifi and solar hot water. When we got to the property he showed us around a bit and pointed us in the direction of many wonderful things to do. ( there is a waterfall nearby!) We absolutely LOVED our time at the Ark and will definitely be back. If you are looking for a place to stay in Puerto Rico, that is relaxing, off the beaten path, full of amazing flora and fauna, and a great jumping off point to see this amazing island, then the Ark is for you. We hope to be back soon.

Wow!!!! What an amazing place. The pictures just don't do it justice. So peaceful. The sounds of nature surround you. We loved it!!! And Carmen was so sweet and helpful.

This secluded place is AMAZING words cannot describe ...the scenery was beautiful it was like a picture frame of nature with different flowers, bamboo trees, and the beautiful melody of the coquis at night was incredible. We all enjoy our stay... Thank You Matt and Janine

This place was great, close to town with beautiful views. Right on the beach! Doesn't get better than that!

Location on the beach was good

Nice!

This place has a lot of potential but it needs some work. I would say that in the condition that it is currently in the low price is fair. It's like a Batchelor pad that needs a womens touch.

I absolutely loved this place! Great location right on the beach. I would definitely come back for a nice relaxing place to stay. This will be my very first choice. Thank you!

Elving was a great host, we love the view from the balcony and the beautiful sunset, the sound of the sea waves were just perfect. The facilities are 100% accurate with the description . Beautiful beach, the apartment is as on the pictures and is very quiet. This place was the perfect getaway for me, my husband and our baby. Really loved it and if we decided to make another trip to the west we definitely would select this one again!

Todo estuvo segun descrito. Muy bien todo. Gracias

Excelente ubicacion.

Eric & Sherry are really nice hosts. They really have a nice appartement by the sea and it's well located ( 45min from Rincon, 30 min the lighthouse). They are really helpfull with everything and they also give great directions and tips on what's near of their place. If you are lucky enough you might be able to enjoyed a little breakfast and coffee every moorning. If you don't mind about sharing a small appartement with really kind strangers this place is probably for you.

Great location, private bathroom, and hosts were very helpful with anything we asked or needed.

Super Duper Hosts, I couldn't have felt more at home! The beach in the backyard was small but very private and "Tranquil!!" It was a very relaxing to stay here. It was just as described and clean. Lots of things to see in the area. The lighthouse, salt flats and beach were beautiful. The waterfalls is a must see. The bioluminescent bay is fairly close by.

Sherry and Eric are friendly and informative hosts. Their house on a restful, secluded beach is a great base for exploring the west coast of Puerto Rico. Don't turn down the wonderful breakfast, if offered!

The place is very nice and close to the beach. Sherry was nice and her husband was nice. They offered good recommendations for places to go and eat. The place was clean and they even had the place cleaned while I was there. The only thing I have to say that really bugged me is the mosquitos. I got bitten like 20 times and scarred up my body a lot because of the screening and mosquitos. Otherwise the stay was great. She even offered a great art class where I got a chance to create my own mandala art work.

Book this place and spend the next few days in your own tranquil escape. If that sounds like an advertisement, it's because the hosts and the space deserve it! They were flexible on our arrival time. They met us at the door with cocktails. Really good cocktails. We had a special, personalized welcome sign on our door. They shared they're snorkeling gear with us. The snorkeling near their house is amazing (Octopi, Puffer fish, Lobster, and more!) They took us to their favorite food truck (so good!). The room was perfect (charging station, easy wi-fi access, AC, very neat and clean). They sold us beer at a fair price so we didn't have drive out and get some. They offered us a taste of some of the best bourbon. They gave fresh, buttery avocados (mmmmm). They were quick with directions to everywhere we needed to go. Their home is decorated in with just the right amount of nerdy, charm. And they restored my faith in humanity a little. That's not hyperbole. This is dollar-for-dollar one the best ABnBs out there(URL HIDDEN)

The room is very cozy and the bed is comfortable for two people. The beach is right outside the house- perfect. One day the water was high, but we just pulled our chairs out there and let our feet get wet. It was great. Sherry and Erick were very helpful and gave advice on travel in the area. Great stay for a relaxing beach vacation.

As rookies with Airbnb, we are more than satisfied to have chosen Tranquil Escape. Our two night stay was wonderfully fulfilled and also exceeded our expectations in many ways. I will start with Sherry and Eric. They are very oriented with all the beautiful places that not only Joyuda and its surroundings bring but many other sites that the tropical island offers. They are focus into every detail of your stay.  Beginning with the warm welcoming, up to your departure.  You will meet two extraordinary professionals that will allow an extremely pleasant stay. Sherry has beautifully set your Tranquil Escape room with very comfortable bedding.  The room is exactly as seen in the pictures with delightful decorations including Sherry’s own elegant artwork.  I was even surprised that Sherry and I share the same passion for crafts.  In addition, you will have a private and excellent maintained bathroom with plenty of items for your personal hygiene needs.  Eric will share all the time you need to explain and suggest the best places to visit with complete directions.  The most amazing sunset view can be experienced from any point of the house. Especially on the balcony or sitting on the two chairs right on the shore. Literally your backyard will be an impressive and amazing ocean.  Is like having that ocean image of your computer wallpaper come to life.  So have your camera ready for such unforgettable moment.  One that will definitely make you want to return. Also, Sherry’s fine breakfasts, yes, she is also a Chef! Extraordinary food!  In summary, I was able to meet two remarkable people which I am delighted to encounter and that I can stay in touch with.  Puerto Rico is so blessed to have you!  

The apart is around 10 min away from Buye beach which is a must see place in Cabo Rojo. Everything was very clean and organized. The price for the place was appropriate. Great experience overall

Lani place was a great stay. Very spacious, and very close to the beach. The parking is perfect( smaller cars would do better but if you are a good driver you shod be fine).the place had all basic needs, would recommend.

Loved the air conditioning units, they made it cozy. Size was great for the two of us. The location was good as well beach was no less than 20 minutes away. Parking was a little tricky.

La estadía fue muy agradable, ya que el estudio tiene todo lo necesario. Agua caliente, nevera, estufa, aire acondicionado, estacionamiento etc. Es idénticamente como se presenta en las fotos. Además, está muy limpio y Lani es atenta y solidaria con sus huéspedes. Se escucha un poco el paso de los carros, ya que está en la calle principal y queda accesible a varios lugares. Se los recomiendo .

Quedé encantada con este lugar. Cerca de restaurantes y al lado de la playa. Fui con mi esposo y la pasamos de maravilla. Definitivamente regresaré a este lugar pero la próxima vez será con nuestros hijos que estoy segura que disfrutarán tanto como lo disfrutamos nosotros. Jamás pensé que la playa estuviera tan cerca solamente salir por el portón y ahí está. Deberás que este lugar me dejó fascinada definitivamente regresaré.

Pedro went out of his way to accommodate us on our unexpected, earlier arrival. Communication was great. The location and the beach is fantastic!

Awesome awesome location which is just steps from the beach. The beach is clear and calm... great for snorkeling and/or kayaking... which was provided for use. There's a grocery store 2 miles south. Quite a few restaurants along the way. The place was nice and clean. It has the essentials needed. All in all... a great place to stay.

We had a great stay at Pedro's beachfront apartment. We requested a last minute booking and he was kind enough to accommodate us. The beach in front of the apartment is quiet, secluded and beautiful crystal clear calm water. We would have loved to take the kayaks out if we had more time! The apartment was clean and both the bed and the futon were very comfortable. The Netflix was a plus! The kitchen has very basic cooking utensils which suited us for our short 2 day stay. Another plus is the grocery store right around the corner! I would return for another short stay. Thanks Pedro!

Near beach. Caiyak. Nice bed. U can cook. Everything was good. I highly recommend. :)

We make the reservation for the same day and Pedro was very accommodating and received us with the apartment clean and ready, including new towels. As a side note the bed was really comfortable. Pedro was very welcoming and warm. The apartment was as described and the included kayak were a very nice amenity. Joyuda has a very nice beach and is close to many other beautiful beaches. We had a great time in the apartment.

Excelente!

Nice apartment with a beautiful beach just a few steps away. Many other great beaches near. Pedro responded all the times and could easily react to short notice changes I had. I have already recommend it to a close friend.

Excellent service, AAA+++ facilities, modern, super clean, modern, recommend, will definetely return, Thanks Raul!!

Raul was a very responsive host and this was a great place for getting quickly to places north like Rincon or south to playa buye. The apartment was very clean and comfortable. It's perfect for couples.

clean, central and Coral is excellent host !!! thanks Coral

El anfitrión cancelado la reserva el día antes de la llegada. Esta es una publicación automatizada.

Coral era acogedor y el apartamento estaba limpio y bien equipada; Sin embargo, la lista indica que había dos dormitorios y dos camas, pero sólo hay un dormitorio con una cama individual. El aire acondicionado se limita a la habitación y la sala de estar / cocina / comedor bastante calor incluso cuando el ventilador de techo está en ON. Además, la propiedad está en proceso de renovación y los trabajadores comenzó antes de las 7 am todos los días ... Esto debería haber sido comunicado con antelación, ya que no habría quedado aquí si sabíamos. La gallera al lado puede ser un poco ruidoso, pero todo-en-todo, el ruido es manejable y que se detenga todo alrededor de 10:30-23:00. Aparte de eso, el apartamento está situado a unos 10-15 minutos de la playa más cercana.

My family of three really enjoyed our stay at Carlos's house. We had our small dog with us and he loved all the fenced in area to play in. I was impressed with how clean everything was, houses on the ocean are incredibly hard to take care of they require constant maintenance and you can tell that Carlos puts a lot of effort into the house being as nice as possible for his guests. He was also very friendly and easy to communicate with.

Carlos' beach house was everything I was looking for. We wanted a house right in front of the beach and close to the towns around the area. I also wanted a place that would be safe for my son (17 months) to bathe in the beach. This place had it all. We really enjoyed the welcome we received by Carlos and he was extremely attentive to us throughout the entire trip. He checked in and made sure that we were ok and enjoying our stay. He also made great suggestions of places to eat. The house is beautiful and has a lot of charm. Its comfortable and there is plenty of room for everyone to have their space. The rooms and beds are very comfy. The house is decorated beautifully and has everything you need. All you need to take is food. That was a plus. The only downside to the house is that it can get noisy because its on a busy road. But that is not Carlos' fault. It is what is. I was familiar with the area so I knew this would be the case. The only time it really can be a little bothersome is at night when you are sleeping. But if you are using the room with air conditioning it really muffles the sound of cars going by. To us it was really not a big deal. Otherwise everything else was to our liking and we really enjoyed our stay. And Carlos was a great host. Would totally come back again to stay at Carlos' beach house.

Carlos is great! He was very attentive and had a lot of attention to detail. The house has delicious candles and soaps everywhere. He really thought about everything! The house has everything you need. Don't need to bring anything at all! Just your bathing suit and food if you want to cook. But with so many restaurants, I recommend you go out!

This was a great place to stay! The kids lived paddling in the kayak, walking the beach, and the beautiful sunset views. We relied on our car rental, and saw many of the great nearby areas/destinations. Really lovely accommodations.

We stayed here with our three kids for a week and it was delightful. Carlos was a wonderful host and gave us great advice about local places to eat and things to do. The ocean is literally steps away from the house. When we were preparing dinner, we could close the gate to the beach and let the kids play in the yard. This house is also in a great location for day trips to Rincón, Guilligan's Island and Boqueron. (We loved all three places!) The house itself is ideal with comfortable bedrooms and a great kitchen. We ended everyday watching incredible sunsets over the ocean. We cannot wait to come back!

As a frequent traveler with small children, I know a thing or two about good and bad experiences...this was a PHENOMENAL EXPERIENCE! Carlos was very easy to communicate with and a pleasure in person. He took his time showing us around his beautiful property and making sure we felt at home. Just take a look at the photos and you will see that this place is not about the frills, its about comfort and location! You are right on the beach (with calm waters) and next door to great local restaurants. The house and property itself is all enclosed,so that was huge for us with young children. The yard was a huge sandlot for the kids to play in with two hammocks Mommy and Daddy used! The Kayak was also a cool plus for us. My son and I had never (URL HIDDEN) fun! This is NOT a tourist town. You pretty much have a private beach to yourself but are only minutes to Boqueron Beach, a popular local beach town. Only negative - The road can be loud at times so if you are an light sleeper, bring a sound maker or focus in on the crashing waves close by. For this to be the only negative is amazing to me. PROS - price, location, food, privacy, safety, beauty, attentiveness, cleanliness, and much, much more! CONS - Street noise and that it's not my house!!!

Carlos was a great host. He left us snacks and essentials in the kitchen, which was really kind. The house is very cute and clean. I liked the unique decor. The view of the ocean from the upstairs terrace is unbeatable. We enjoyed breakfast up there each morning. One bedroom had AC which was clutch. Thank you Carlos!

Carlos is a host very responsive and is always available to answer quickly to requests we may have.

totally private, comfortable and with everything you need to spend a wonderful evening excellent apartment! Accessible beaches, restaurants and businesses. The pool is spectacular and quiet! Rodrigo was very accessible all the time!

Beautiful place! The location is perfect. The apartment is has a private access a beautiful beach which guarantees beautiful sunsets. The host provides many amenities such as beach towels, beach chairs which made the beach visits so much easier. Also, the apartment is so close to so many restaurants and even a supermarket. Had an excellent stay and would totally recommend!

This is the 2nd time I stay in one of Heriberto's apartments. He is a great host! This apartment is very cozy! It is decorated very nicely. It is right on the beach and conveniently located near many restaurants. I had a wonderful time and will definitely stay again.

Awesome place. Great location and everything in really good order.

Bel endroit!!!!

The stay was great! Beautiful beach front apartment, with new and renovated kitchen everything you need to cook and stay. Definitely recommend!

Apartamento comodo, limpio, muy lindo y justo a la orilla del mar! Definitivamante se puede repetir. Heriberto fue muy atento y contesto nuestras preguntas siempre rapido.

Perfecto

Cuarto con muy buena localización cerca de la playa. Recomendaciones: Ve preparado mentalmente para janguear ya que en los fines de semana el restaurante se convierte en un spot de jangueo. Muy buen servicio de comida y los empleados son súper agradables.

Everything was nice, private and beautiful view at the back of the place. No A/C so it was hot during the night.

The location is great, but the room (#1)we stayed in is not worth the amount charged.

My girlfriend and I planned our first trip to Puerto Rico around campgrounds, a few nights in an Airbnb, bookended with hotels to keep us close to the airport. All of our information was from travel books, blogs, and a few suggestions from friends and family. Everything about our trip had been great until we attempted to stay here for three nights. The room itself was clean, had a mini fridge, microwave, and it's own bathroom. Smaller than I expected, no bathroom door, or shower curtain or air conditioning. We were checked in by Maito around 7pm. Kety did not mention she wouldn't be there, but he was very polite, and made it clear he would do anything to make us comfortable. Unfortunately there was no way for him to right what we felt was wrong. The listing stated the room was on the beach below a restaurant, romantic and private. For anyone who hasn't been down the Joyuda (like me), there is no beach, the waves break on concrete walls. Not a deal breaker, but should be noted. When we arrived, we were surprised to find the restaurant still under construction. We were assured it would be open after we left. After settling into our room after a very long drive, we decided to not stay for the other two nights, feeling the property was misrepresented. Kety was quick to respond, informing us that Airbnb decides whether refunds are warranted. This room is not private. It is attached to a larger rental via two doors, which apparently are not insulated. We could hear our neighbors (who checked in much later than us) as if the doors weren't there. They were not being recklessly loud (i.e. Yelling, loud music). After talking with Nick at Airbnb, he canceled our reservations. The next day I got a very nasty message from Kety. Overall, this was the worst experience of our entire trip. Wasn't that bad, but I wouldn't want to go through it again.

Los días que pasamos en casa de Kety fueron estupendos. la habitacion es tal y como aparece, pero lo mejor de todo y lo que mas nos marco es el trato que recibimos por Katy y su familia'!! Kevin estuvo esperándonos a la llegada,es un chico muy muy agradable. Pudimos compartir dos comidas con toda la familia, y la verdad que nos hicieron sentir como dos Cubanos mas!!! 100% recomendable!!!

Everything was great. Everything was newer and clean but the single bed option was fairly small and cozy. Communication was great. The restaurant has changed names and you can see mile marker 10.9 from the parking lot. The restaurant wasn't open while we stayed but the food down the road at bamboleio was fantastic. It's next to the road so sometimes the local traffic can extend into the night. We had A/C which was a nice surprise. No wifi which we knew in advance.

Nice location and low price. Be aware of bugs

The view off the deck is spectacular, very quiet (with the exception of early morning traffic). The bathroom was done very nicely. Located with walking distance to the closest beach & with in 30 minutes of several "party" beach. Communication was great.
