I recently stayed at Mata e Platano Guesthouse and overall had a pleasant and relaxing experience. The space is peaceful and surrounded by nature. I enjoyed the pool area, it's a lovely place to unwind. The pool technically stays open until 10pm, which is great, though I did notice it stops filtering around 4pm, so by the evening there were some bugs and leaves floating. The room was small but cozy, and I liked the simplicity of the space. They provide a first aid kit and mosquito repellent, which is a thoughtful touch, though both are stored in the breakfast room and since that room is locked after 10am, you can’t access them later in the day if you need them. They offer a light breakfast with sweet snacks, crackers, bread (though no butter), and usually one fruit. I’d recommend they update the listing to say “morning snacks” instead of “breakfast” to better reflect what’s provided. On our first morning, the breakfast room was still closed at 7am even though they stated it opened at 6am, we had to call for them to unlock it, which was inconvenient. Noise from the upstairs guests was a major drawback. You can hear every footstep, and it went on well past 1am, making it hard to sleep. Also, the bed sheets had stains, which made the room feel a little less cared for than expected. The hosts were always responsive when we called, and that gave us some peace of mind. Considering the downsides, I do feel the price is a bit high for what’s offered.

We were so grateful that there was a generator so we had power! Location is very convenient both to shopping, beaches and close to San Juan. Luquillo has a cute Downtown with restaurants as well. The rooms are very small but was enough for the two of us. Buy cream or milk and breakfast items as they have coffee but only powdered creamer and not much for breakfast.

This property is very unique in its build. We were pleasanty surprised on how nice it was to stay in the converted cargo containers. Located 1/2 way between El Yunque National Forest and Fajardo to do the bioluminescence tour, it was very convenient. The property is very well kept. While there is no host on site, they were very responsive with texts on What's App. If you follow the provided pins, it is extremely easy to find.
