I had a good time during my stay at Isla Bonita Beach Resort. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the location offered a nice beach vibe. However, the dining options could be improved, as some meals were underwhelming. Overall, I would recommend this place for its relaxed atmosphere, especially if you're looking to surf in San Juan. 🌊🌴

My stay at Isla Bonita Beach Resort was quite enjoyable, with a charming atmosphere and friendly staff. though there were some notable drawbacks. While the beach was beautiful and quiet, I found the access to the water potentially risky for kids. The rooms were spacious yet showed signs of aging, and improvements to the cleaning policy could enhance the experience.

I genuinely enjoyed my stay at Isla Bonita Beach Resort. The atmosphere was romantic and quaint, ideal for a peaceful getaway. However, I did find the rooms a bit dated, and the beach access, while direct, seemed a bit risky due to the steep slope and rough waters. Overall, the friendly staff and decent food made my experience enjoyable, even if there were some aspects needing improvement.
