"It’s not the most luxurious accommodations, but for flying in and out of San Juan you can’t beat the convenience, especially if you have an early flight and don’t speak Spanish.

"The hotel butts up against the ocean so there are amazing views from the patio area and straddles two beaches. The room was lovely. We had a great view of the ocean from our windows and it was clean and comfortable. The king size room was large enough to comfortably spend time in it when we were ready for a break from the sun. The staff are amazing - accommodating and friendly. They make La Playita a truly special place. Easily walkable access to nearby dining and shopping via roads or beach....

"I appreciated the 60 plus page of instructions about the property. However, the checkin process is somewhat inconvenient.

"The property is beautiful, just very cold inside. The atrium seems to be about 65° and the rooms dont really get warm. It is a great place to stay. The pool is clean and the hours are 6-11.
