This is a jewel no one really knows about. Having stayed in San Juan at the Caribe Hilton and in Rincon, my husband & I agreed, this place in Ensenada was by far the best. It is quaint, personal, clean, friendly, and very professional. We felt very much at home here. When we return, this is the place where we will stay. The food is fabulous. The staff extremely warm and accommodating. I highly recommend this place to everyone.

We really enjoyed this place. I was a little worried because, while most reviews were favorable, a few complained of a “moldy stench”. This was absolutely not so. In fact, upon thinking about it, it would be difficult to have mold in the rooms, since the Parador is located in the dry area of Puerto Rico. We found the staff extremely helpful, never failing to fill our needs. For instance, we found the room exceedingly cold and could not change the air conditioner setting. When we spoke to the person in the office, she explained that they have the settings locked down and we could not change it…but she would be happy too. She came to our room and did adjust the temperature to our liking. We also found that our shower was not working properly and reported it late at night. The next day they did fix the shower and it was fine. We thought the room was exceedingly small and were surprised that some people we met there did not agree with us. We checked out their room, they had two full beds with plenty of room to walk around. We had a king in, what must have been, a smaller room. There was not extra room. I suggest that you request a room with two full beds. That is what we intend to do when we return next year. And we will return because: the cost was extremely fair, the breakfasts (which we pre-purchased) were hot and satisfying, the staff was accommodating. We did meet people without a car and they were stuck, because this place in not within walking distance to anything, restaurants, beaches, parks…nothing. But if you have a car it is just a short drive to the dry forest, Gillians Island’s boats, Guanica.

We loved evrything the food, the room, the service and most The Price.

Lots of stuff to do around Guanica. Beautiful beaches, restaurants, kayaking, boat rides thru rivers and channels... Simply a great weekend

We stayed for three days. The rooms were pretty small but who spends time in the room during vacation? Just a place to hang your hat. Meals were good, but not great. Adequate to get you going in the morning and at lunch. Very good service in restaurant. WiFi does not work except by front office. Bring a cable. Can't control air conditioning temperature.... seriously. Hot water was far from hot, but manageable.

The Bodegas Andreu winery next door is worth the quality of the rooms though. They are open Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Excellent wine and food. Great views. Great music.
