Casa Del Caribe Bed & Breakfast - San Juan

The bed and breakfast was clean and maintained well. There was no sunlight in my room, that was my only drawback. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay. Very conveniently located. Very personable attention to the guests. I would stay in the future!

Just a good place to crash and that's it. You have to park at the nearby Marriott garage and walk there, it is also 18 dollars a night to park at Marriott garage.

My wife got up in morning with 15 bedbug bites. Very itchy

When I booked my room I was told it was on the beach but it was about a block from the beach which was not bad. I had booked two rooms because I had other people going on the trip but at the last minute their flight was canceled. The hotel has a no refund policy but the gentleman was nice enough to refund some of the money for the second room which […] was very nice. The room was a decent size and the housekeeper always made sure we had a clean room with fresh towels. Over all I can not complain it was just a little more money then I would have paid since it was not on the beach. Read more

Nice room but had NO hot water. We were told it is tropical wether there. what the heck does that matter. When we complained about having no hot water they did not do anything, they just shook there shoulders and said nothing. Front desk lady was nice, but pictures look better than actual place,. Not worth the price paid at all.

The hotel location was fabulous. You are close to everything. Ed is very knowledgeable about the area. His recommendations on where to eat were excellent. I intent to visit annually and will stay at the casa del caribe every time!

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

The picture at Hotels.com is not correct -- the hotel is not on the beach, it's a couple of blocks away. This is a very modest hotel, very clean -- and as a woman traveling alone I felt very safe. The hotel is within walking distance to shopping, restaurants and the beach.

My boyfriend and I recently went on a short vacation to San Juan and stayed at Casa del Caribe. We really enjoyed our stay here! I suspect that the people who had issues were expecting more of a plush hotel experience. We found it was more of a motel-meets-bed-and-breakfast type of situation (keeping in mind that a Caribbean "motel" is different than […] the many you find in the continental US- at least in my experience). We had our own space and bathroom. Outside was a courtyard with areas to sit and relax. Wifi was available. The location was also a great benefit! We were within walking distance to a beautiful beach, great restaurants, night life and a bus that went straight to Viejo San Juan. We also really enjoyed the staff there, especially the host! He gave us a lot of great advice that led us to wonderful authentic Puerto Rican and Turkish restaurants, incredible tours of the rainforest and bio-luminescent boy, and the best way to get to and from Viejo San Juan. We REALLY enjoyed our trip and this site! We'd happily stay there again and recommend it to friends! Read more

Just a room to sleep. No lobby, its a great location. I found parking in the neighborhood, so didn't have to pay for parking. on the flipside I wouldn't. Go there for a honeymoon.

Room was nice sized, king bed was comfortable, No windows. Location was great. Only problem was there was NO HOT WATER. About 45 seconds of lukewarm water in shower, less in sink. AC was good.

It's clean, simple, and in a great location. If your the kind of person looking for a decent place to rest your head then this is a great place. It's not a resort or expensive hotel so if your looking for a hotel you want to spend a lot of time in then its not for you, but if your like me and just want a decent place to sleep while you explore the city […] and enjoy the beach then this is a good place with nice staff.

For the price paid, the hotel stay was a good deal. It is located in the heart of Condado, close to restaurants, beach, transportation. Ed, Manager, was quite accommodating and very helpful. He helped me out which the restaurants to check out and things to do around. The wifi in the room is also pretty good. The breakfast served is just okay! The […] sister pool/jacuzzi is a 15 min walk..away from the main area..which was not so great... Overall a good stay for people who would spend less time in their rooms. Read more

Great Location, superb friendly staff. walking distance to beach and in the middle of the Condado area.

Genuine Expedia guest review

The price of the hotel is perhaps justified by its location. But as a B & B, it needs some upgrading. The breakfast is on a par with Comfort Inn: simple. I would have expected a hot breakfast buffet for the money. The location is excellent, being in the heart of the busy Condado district and near all the restaurants and stores. The beach is across the […] main avenue, around the back of the Marriott Hotel. The management is friendly. The accommodations, the room, beds, facilities, must date back thirty years or more. The building is perhaps pre-WWII. The air conditioning was excellent. The outdoor patio is relaxing. The parking is across the street in the Marriott @$18/day. Read more

The Casa Del Caribe was a nice little place to lay your head at night, without breaking your billfold. Our room was very nice and comfortable. The continential breakfast could use a little more variety-we had toast, pastries, cereal, juice and coffee everyday. They could add some fresh fruit or bagels, but it was fine. Staff were all very friendly and […] knowledgable and the location is excellent-close to everything and walking distance to many attractions. We enjoyed sitting out on the patio and also enjoyed the sister pool and hot tub. A great place for the price!! Read more

This was my first time getting a hotel from this website. I mostly make my decision by the customer reviews. I mostly read that even though the place was not fancy, the place was clean and comfortable. I also read that staff was very corteous. Well all these things were very true. So these were my mishaps and I would like to share them because someone […] could learn before they pick this hotel. If you check in after 5 pm, you have to go to the Canary Inn to check in because no one is at the desk at that time. Well I was not aware of this, so when we walked there from our hotel the guy at the Canary Inn could not find my reservation. Thankfully I printed all my confirmations and was able to prove to the guy that I did have a reservation, but it took QUITE a while and alot of patience. I also found out that this hotel as nice as it was does NOT have any parking available (something that should be mentioned in the hotel information). I also had to pay a day charge at the Marriott hotel parking lot (this is a discount from the normal charge). I was very disappointed by not only the parking charges at the hotel, but just about everywhere in the Condado area and San Juan. Anyone that plans to make a trip to Puerto Rico should be aware of this. Another helpful suggestion is take a GPS with you if you dont know the area. I was glad we did. Again my overall stay at the Caribe Inn was a good one. Read more

I truly enjoyed my stay at this hotel. Knowing I was going to be at the beach all day, I wanted an affordable hotel in a great location...this certainly was the place. The manager, Ed, was very accomodating and certainly will visit him the next time I am in San Juan. If you like to be near the beach, bars, restaurants and action, this is the place. […] I had a great stay. Read more

Very reasonable rates, great centralized location, only a block from the beach, nice patio/ breakfast area, beds soft but comfortable, Ed very personable and helpful. Continental breakfast sparse but many close-by restaurants for breakfast. We'll come back!

This is a little hard to find as the GPS marks it down the street. Look up till you see the Marriott sign and you are close it is just across the street from the Buns burger place next to the abandoned building. Beautiful courtyard, quiet rooms. No cooking area but there is a BBQ available. The ocean waves are a blast here but there is a lot of ocean […] vegetation in the water. I like Vieques better for beaches but I came back to swim and visit the "Small Bar" Read more

We had an over night stay in San Juan. It's okay for a night stay. No longer. It's old and needs a little work. Room was clean and that's what mattered most to me

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

The hotel should not be on your list of possible places to stay. We never checked in. It took about an hour to get in to see the hotel as it is locked up and the wall around it is 6 feet high. No one answered our calls so we walked over to the after hour hotel mentioned on Del Caribe's locked door. We were able to contact the manager, he let us in and […] we found the room small, dirty and unacceptable. We never stayed there and lost the $ paid for a two night stay. This place should not be on Hotels.com. It deserves 0 stars. DO NOT STAY HERE! Read more

For the price, this is one of the best cheap hotels I have ever stayed at. As long as you know what you are paying for, and you don't mind rinsing off your breakfast bowl, you will love this homey place with everything a young traveler needs... Proximitey to the action and good Internet. The one unusual thing is the limited desk hours, so be sure to […] keep that in mind. Read more

I was only there for a couple hours since i had a 14 hour layover from St Croix. The hotel was close to the beach and restaurants. I slept well but didn't want to stay more than those 14 hours. It was cramped and the hotel was not maintained well at all but it was convenient for 14 hours and no more than that!

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

We have been to PR many time before and prefer to stay in a bed and breakfast/ guesthouse in the neighborhood. My husband and I pride ourselves in being the "uncommon tourists" unfortunately our stay at Casa del caribe was much less than we expected. The staff were courteous, but not engaging. If we spoke, they responded but that was it. The room was […] clean, but the little travel size bottles were all shampoo's and it was evident that some had been open previously. Our room was a free upgrade, faced a side street and alley way. That was OK, but the curtains could not be moved on the rod to let light in during the day, except by tying them up. The information book left in the room went into detail about charges that would be incurred for damages, but didnot explain the continental breakfast procedure or just general neighboorhood info. ( there is a great little park one block up) If you want a clean and quiet place to sleep with that is near the action of Condado then this is the place for you, If you want a little more homey feel of a puertorican guesthouse, we recommend to look else where.

I have no complaints about my stay there. If you're looking for economy, clean and comfortable then this is the right place. The location couldn't have been better! I'm an avid beach goer and a beautiful beach was a short walk away. The staff was very hospitable and helpful.

Although not for everybody, this quaint B & B is is a super location. Everything is within walking distance, or a short cab ride.

I wasn't pleased with this hotel. It should be a bed and bath. For the price I paid, I wasn't impressed. For a few dollars more, I could have stayed in a hotel that has a lot more to offer,ie pool, room service etc.. This place doesn't even have an iron in the room. It says they have block out curtains, but when you turn on the a/c, it blows the curtains […] and the street light and sun lights up the room. The pictures make you think its close to a beach, but you have to walk a pretty good distance. Parking is off site in another hotel. I will never stay here again... Read more

This quaint little b&b is right in the heart of Condado, a block from beaches, wonderful restaurants, and everything you need, we loved this place. If you are super picky and looking for the royalty treatment please go spend hundreds a night elsewhere, this is for people who want local culture and a good price, for us it was perfect.

Casa del Caribe was wonderful! Location couldn't be better, it is close to nice restaurants and bars, the beach is only a block and a half away. Something very important is the security of the area; it couldn't be better! The Condado area is always patrolled by police 24/7 and one can walk around securely (this was a huge plus since we were two women […] on our own, and felt completely safe)The hotel is a simple bed & breakfast, but it is very good. The personnel at the hotel was pleasant and always willing to assist in all our needs and questions. The rooms were clean, spacious bathroom (although it depends on the room you get; the first room I stayed in had a very small bathroom, but we were quickly moved to another room after a problem was detected in there, The second room had a much bigger bathroom). I would definitely stay there again. :) Read more

The location of the hotel was great, some was fairly clean but the service was not good enough. Plus checking time was 2pm not good enough anyone should be allowed to check in anytime before 2pm.

This hotel is next to dilapidated building that needs to be torn down. They do not have enough staff to keep someone there at the desk to check you in if you come in late like I did. I had to go to the Canario Inn around the corner on Ashford Ave. I was given an apartment type room that slept 6. It had older furnishings, and it was relatively clean. […] Great for a group. The shower was terrible- no pressure, but it did have hot water It would be nicer if it had a jacuzzi in the large court area. Read more

Ed the keeper at Casa Del Caribe makes you feel like you have a friend in Puerto Rico.

This is a small hotel with limited services, but the open air breakfast area is most appealing. It beats bellhops, rude desk clerks, elevators, and long hallways.
