We were lucky enough to get to stay at Carole's rainforest villa for three days during our anniversary vacation to Puerto Rico in March and April. To begin with, Carole is a great host! She was very responsive and helpful during the month leading up to our trip with recommendations of activities, restaurants, directions etc. She also makes a killer Banana smoothie and cranberry oatmeal. So if you catch her in the morning, she will whip up a batch for breakfast!
Her hidden hidaway is at the very top of the drive just before the entrance to the El Yunque rainforest. The 1 bedroom/bath bungalow was perfect! She has done a great job with the decorating to make it feel very comfortable, relaxing, and romantic. The room had a great view into the rainforest and at night the frogs and rain put you to sleep. The BEST part of her place was the outdoor kitchen. We stopped at the local grocery store before heading to her place to stock up on food and drinks. I recommend that you do that beforehand! Anyways, the outdoor kitchen/ patio overlooked the rainforest and ocean in the distance. We spent alot of time out there reading, cooking, and enjoying the view. We also spent our days hiking up to the private waterfalls that are nearby. If you don't know the way, just ask to take her dogs with you...they will lead you right to the falls and take a swim with you!
Our stay was great and we only wish we could have spent more time with Carole and at her place. It was a great way to celebrate our anniversay and I highly recommend it to others who are looking for a peaceful getaway!
