Uncover the Hidden Gems of Puerto Rico
Crystal pools hidden among rainforest boulders.
If you come to stay with us, we know you won’t be able to resist blazing a trail through the enchanted El Yunque Rainforest. Whether you choose to brave our exclusive Lost Machete Hike or explore the numerous trails the national park offers just seconds from your door, we call ourselves the Rainforest Inn with good reason.
If you find yourself among the misty peaks of El Yunque one hour, don’t be surprised if you’re wading in the warm waters of Luquillo Beach the next. Whatever brings you to Puerto Rico, you’ll discover that driving times to wherever you want to go are pleasantly short.
In less than half an hour, you can venture to Fajardo’s Seven Seas Beach for unforgettable snorkeling and scuba tours. Take a kayaking excursion to the magical Bioluminescent Bay, or simply relax and take in the views of the leaning palms.
Looking for a memorable meal? A wide selection of local restaurants offers gourmet Puerto Rican, Italian, Spanish, and Latin American cuisine just a few miles away, and we would be happy to recommend somewhere special.
If you’re looking for something more casual, we can also point you toward the lively row of kioskos on Luquillo Beach, where a dozen bars and restaurants serve everything from local favorites to refreshing tropical drinks, just twenty minutes from the Inn.
Take off on a starlit tour to the magnificent Bioluminescent Bay in Fajardo
After spending several years on this island, we’ve crossed paths with hundreds of incredible people, and luckily for us, many of them offer unique private tours. Whether you’re craving horseback riding along the beach, a snorkeling tour without the taste of other tourists’ sunscreen floating in the water, a self-guided tour where a bona fide pirate reveals the secrets of the bio bay, or an adventure into El Yunque complete with pre-colonial Arawak petroglyphs, with a little help from our friends we can help create a truly one-of-a-kind vacation for you and yours.
As an ecolodge run by passionate environmentalists, we always recommend responsible activities that conserve and sustain the natural environment while supporting the well-being of the local community.
There are many companies offering tours of the bioluminescent bays in Fajardo and Vieques, an unforgettable adventure for nature lovers. One we recommend is Yokahú Kayak Trips, endorsed by the Puerto Rico Tourism Company. They have been in business for more than ten years and were founded by a Fajardo native. You can give them a call at (787) 604-7375 to speak with their friendly staff, or visit their website to book a bio bay or rainforest tour.
We also recommend Pure Adventure, founded by two marine biologists who are passionate about sharing the natural beauty of their home, La Isla del Encanto, in a sustainable way. They offer bio bay tours, snorkeling, scuba diving, private charters, and water taxis. Reservations can be made by phone at (787) 202-6551 or through their website.
