Fajardo and Luquillo Beach are centers of Puerto Rico's watersports - © travelandsports.com 2003

East Coast: El Yunque & Luquillo Beach

Easily accessible from the San Juan Metro Area, just take route #3 directly from the airport to the small hotels of Eastern Puerto Rico. The new Route #66 toll road makes the trip even faster! Great beaches, water sports and the ferries to our ‘Spanish Virgin Islands’ of Culebra and Vieques are easy reach in Fajardo.  These inns that are located in the foothills of the El Yunque rainforest put you in easy reach of everything!  You’re also just minutes from Luquillo Beach – perhaps the most famous beach in Puerto Rico!

UPDATE: The East Coast of Puerto Rico now has a new airport! The Fajardo airport has moved to the former Roosevelt Roads Airbase and the new Jose Aponte de la Torre Airport (Airport Code JAT).

The following small hotels are members of the Puerto Rico Hotel & Tourism Association.

Casa Cubuy Ecolodge – Rio Blanco

Casa Cubuy is a special, tranquil place where you can contemplate the wonder and beauty of the rain forest that surrounds you.

Sleep late, sunbathe on granite slabs and boulders worn smooth by eons of cascading waters. Slip into a natural Jacuzzi and let the water gently massage away the tensions of city life.

Relax in a hammock on the verandah, read, or just watch the clouds float by in this setting of giant tree ferns, soaring breadfruit trees, and wild orchids. Explore trails to prehistoric Indian rock carvings.

Located above Naguabo in Puerto Rico.
