I loved this place. We rented the Chalet for 4 nights in Feb. I was my huband, myself and a friend. The house is super hard to find so Sue will meet you in town and you follow her up the jungle to the house. She also gives you a map so that you are able to find it again on your own.

We did really well and only got lost once getting back to the house. You are about 8KM above the road through town at the house so you can see all of town from the deck on the 2nd floor. It was exactly like the pictures show on her website www.rainforestrental.com

We spent one day deep sea fishing in Fajardo (about 15-20 mins) away, one day in El Yunque hiking, and one day with Eco tours in the Carisite Forest. We did not go to the beach in Luquillo but it looked really nice. There are lots of resturants in the area and we loved most of them.

The house itself is 3 bedrooms, 2 upstairs with queen beds and one of the kitchen area but there are shutters and curtains giving you privacy. There is a deck off the parking area or reachable through the bathroom on the 1st floor, and a deck off the 2nd floor through one of the bedrooms. The kitchen has everything you would need to cook, although we did not. The beds were super comfy, fancy hotel style.

The house does not have AC or internet, it has tv but we never turned it on. We were there the middle of Feb and used blankets to sleep at night with the overhead fan on and the standing fan in the room. Almost all of the windows are just screen and have shades that can be pulled, but why bother no one can see you. There were no bugs while we were there but apparently they had not had much rain. The frogs are pretty loud but it was great.

If you are looking for an experience in the jungle this is your place, if you are looking for the hilton skip it you will hate it. I would love to go back!

Sue and Bob are awsome and helped us find our way. I'm not sure where to even start with this review. The house was incredible with beautiful views of the city, ocean and rain forest. The property has two balconys where you can sit and take it all in. A great place to unwind and just relax. The frogs put us to sleep every night. Are only regret is that we didn't stay longer. As our kids put it "this is the best vacation house we have ever had". We will be back for a longer stay.

I stay at Sue's whenever I am in the area. It's nestled at the edge of the El Yunke Rain Forest, which is one of the gentlest rain forests in the world (no poisonous snakes, dangerous animals or deadly insects) with a spectacular view of Luquillo and the adjacent coastline. The accommodations are clean, cozy, comfortable and a step above what you would expect from a quest house of this nature. It is owned and operated by a wonderful couple who go out of their way to make sure all their guest receive the kind of attention that will make their stay as pleasant as humanly possible. They are long time residents of the area and are more than happy to take the time to make sure that you are made aware of all the option available to you Not only can they direct you to the best restaurants, bars, beaches for surfing (beginner or advanced) , beaches for snorkeling, beach combing or just walking alone, rain forest trails and back roads, events, festivals and just about any activity you can think of, but will also give you tips on how to deal with any cultural differences you might encounter, such as driving (I like to call it creative driving), drinking in public, public beach etiquette, etc.
Unless you are the kind of person who enjoys looking for things to complain about while on vacation, you couldn't ask for a better place to stay, anywhere in Puerto Rico..

Sue is great! if you want a rain forest experience this is it. It is a few steps above camping. dead frogs and lizards in the house and some live ones too. While we were there it was very hot and sticky as there is no A/C just some broken fans so it made it hard to sleep. We had to wash any dishes/utensils before we could use them. Definitely needs some repair work and a good spring cleaning. Don't forget to ask for fresh sheets we had to. It certainty is a special place and a neat house to stay in. But ti did remind me of camping. there is a short cut to El Yunque rain forest that makes it just minutes away but don,t get lost.
