Lovely place to stay. The host, Jorge, was very helpful and readily available to answer any questions. Grounds are really nice and a great get away from the noise and bustle. Road getting to the home was winding and twisting but once you traveled it you got used to it. Great place to stay.
Beautiful home set in the hills with no visual neighbours. Everything you need for a relaxing stay. Big covered veranda, big rooms help make this a great family home. It has no A/C but it really wasn't needed due to its location and lots of surrounding trees. The hot water is on and off a bit but it was warm. The host is very responsive and helpful. I would definitely stay here again. Just loved it.
We really enjoyed the beautiful surroundings and sitting on the porch. The house was clean, comfortable and very roomy. We only spoke to the host on the phone, but he was helpful and responsive to all our questions. Since this home is located in a remote area in the mountains, we planned to cook most of our meals there. The 3 skillets provided were not usable, so we had to buy a skillet for cooking. There was only one kitchen towel provided. There was a cupboard with spices which was nice. We made do with what was there, but felt the kitchen could have been better equipped.
Had a great time thank you. Was Alil hard to find at night but other then that the stay was nice . Owner was available for most part . Had a nice grill area we were able to have a nice time
Perfect location for a beautiful, mountainous nature retreat. Our group had so much fun exploring one of the mountain regions of Puerto Rico. Also with in an hour of beautiful beaches. The house and the surrounding property was a perfect accomodation for a group of 7 adults. Beautiful, well kept house and property in a nice neighborhood. Definitely would recommend! 5 stars!! and property. .
What a treat. From the first day my spouse fell in love. It's someone full and we enjoyed the coqui singing at night. Also it rain in the evenings almost every day keeping temperatures just right. Thank you very much

Noisy, creepy vibes
I couldn't even stay 1 night as it was very noisy in the area and gave me creepy, unsafe feelings.

Great place to enjoy nature's beauty
We spent the eastern weekend there and had a great time. The house is beautiful, well furnished and very confortable with all the luxury of the city but located in the middle in the countryside. My family enjoyed all the adventure that Utuado has to offer. The house is perfectly located to enjoy the cave tubbing at Tanama River (they also have zipline tours). We also went to the Caguana Ceremonial Park and to Parque de las Cavernas del Rio Camuy. It is really a great place to enjoy nature's beauty. We told Abel that we will be back!
The ride is for experienced driver the roads, twist& turns sudden and dark
I accomplished what I needed to accomplish. However, the space needs to be equipped with proper kitchen. Utensils and shopping should be done shut sufficiently before arrival negotiating the road during the night is difficult.
For 3 days/2 nights we (being a 5-man bachelor party) stayed at this residence and had a great time. There was plenty of elbow room, the common area table was great for poker nights, and the porch was a welcome reprieve when wanting a hot minute away to relax w/ nature. The roads/approach was narrow and it took a pass or two to get our bearings, but once you notice the yellow/green gate posts at the top of the driveway... you can't miss them.
Cafe Oro was great for coffee and breakfast, and dinner at Mi Pequeno San Juan was awesome as well as under budget. Don't forget sampling deliciously strange ice creams at Heladeria Lares, just bring cash and no cards are accepted. GO EAT AT EL CEPO Restaurante Mirador, you will not be disappointed in food or view. We also hit Camuy Rio Caverns, Arecibo Observatory, and Charco Azul from this home base.
I give this place 5 stars because it was great, even when things went sideways. There was an issue with the water pump and we lost all water pressure, but the response and repair was immediate. The rain had the back yard swamped out, but the stone pavers and landscaping still provided the paths to get down to the forest edge. Even on the approach and having difficulty finding the house, Jorge was responsive and helped guide us.
All in all, I wish we could've stayed longer and look forward to hopefully visiting again.
The house met all of our needs, it’s about 45 minutes to an hour everywhere but we’ll worth it. The owner was easy to get a hold of and was very receptive to all of our needs. Very relaxing.
Coming from city living,, it was different. If ur scared of driving in the hillside, this is not for you. It is REALLY away from tourist areas. The house is close to the caves and rainforest so a lot of areas are preserved and still affected from the last hurricane. Overall, it was an amazing experience for my family and I. I can still smell the clean air.
The only thing bad I had to say was the number of spiderwebs inside the property. The way the house was built, was to bring nature in the home. The pillows were outdated and covered in mold and mildew. There are some electronically updates needed but that is a major reason your on vacation. The house was clean. BUT we stayed the entire 5 days and it didn’t bother us after the first night.
The owner was disposable for us and very pleasant. He answered every time we reached out.
Property was spacious, comfortable and above all clean. Great location. We enjoyed getting up early, sitting in the porch, feeling the fresh morning breeze, listening the birds & roosters, and drinking a great cup of coffee....we loved it.
This house is exactly as described. It was very comfortable for our group of 5. We were unable to take advantage of the close proximity of the river tours due to bad weather so we ended our week here 2 days early. It was an adventure everyday getting to and from this home to say the least. Unforgettable memories were made, friendly people and excellent communication with the owner.
Thank you for making your home available.
Beautiful area, comfortable areas, lovely balcony and green areas. an excellent spot to explore the mountain region and the Tanama river.
the house can get hot during the day in the summer
Property was exactly pictured in photo. It was a beautiful home. It was difficult to find at night, but we arrived safely. Jorge was very great in communication with us. Just be prepared to drive on a mountain. Bakery and convenience store just a short drive away.
We had a fabulous time at this home in Utuado! The house was spacious with plenty of room for the whole family. We particularly loved sitting on the veranda looking out over the gorgeous grounds. The property is expansive and was lots of fun exploring. The location of the home was perfect for fully immersing in the adventures of the mountains. Batey’s Ziplining company was fabulous! We had so much fun with the extended tour. The area is truly breathtaking! We also enjoyed the local bakery and other eateries within a few miles. Driving to the coast and even Old San Juan is doable from the house and was worth it. The drive to/from the house is an adventure in itself. We loved the views from the winding roads! We had an absolutely wonderful time! Highly recommend both the home and the area.

Served the purpose.
We were looking for a place to get away from the city and that’s exactly what we got! It accommodate the group of 6 ladies well, so the house and spaces served the purpose. It needs an update on much of the utilities, and maintenance of interior and surroundings because it is a nice place, but can be a much confortable experience if it was cleaner. Seems like the pictures were taken long before PR got hit by the huracanes. Overall the property was ok, but since we had a full agenda on activities we were able to enjoy our stay as much as we could.
