My wife and I stayed one night a couple of weeks ago on our way to Culebra. We liked it so much we want to go back. The staff was very nice and we were upgraded to an ocean view room that overlooked the pool. It's a little pricey for the age of the facility but considering the location it's... More

We stayed here for four days in May. Our kids were with us they are eight and eleven. We did not have a car since we were there for such a short time but If you are staying for a longer time I would recommend getting a car for at least part of the time( there is an enterprise desk... More

Stayed there with the family for a couple of days. Although the grounds and public areas were lovely, the room was a little dated and looked worn. Best staff I've ever encountered on the island, they were very attentive and just cheerful. My girls loved the pool and especially the private Island, Palomino Island. We went early in the morning...

My wife and I spent three days of our Honeymoon at the El Conquistador. She works in sales for Hilton, so I base my review on the fact that we stayed at the Hilton employee rate, so cost wasn't really a factor for us. Everything about our experience at the El Con was great. From check in - where the... More

Just got back from my vacation yesterday. We were too happy when they upgraded us to ocean view room. But remember they have two wings. The building on the left faces directly the ocean (thus having stunning ocean views) and one on the right faces the ocean too but overlooks the swimming pool. I believe the left wing has a... More

Bought two 'gustazos' (PR version for livingsocial) for this salon while I stayed at the hotel. It was $67 for a standard pedicure and manicure (total $134) with a few extras for feet and hand massage (which did not happen). At the end of the service, I was to pay tip and IVU (state tax). They automatically charged me an... More

The resort, location and views are breathtaking. Some staff were very nice at restaurants and bars. But not enough staff around pool area to help with orders. The place does need some better maintenance. Trash all over and some walls and ceiling in property need work. The room was beautiful. We got a direct ocean view and well worth it.... More
