Ventana Al Atlantico at Arecibo 681 Ocean Drive

DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY! Where to start? First of all the owner is a crook. My grandmother and I booked 6 nights here and could not make it 3. The facilities were dirty, rundown, and the area was dangerous. The owner offered us a different room but tried to scam us for another $175! Then another manager allowed us to change rooms because of construction happening right next to us (which was not mentioned), and again the owner demanded to get more money from us. When my grandmother complained the owner simply said, “if you don’t like it then you can leave and I’ll refund you for the nights you didn’t stay”. That was 2 weeks ago and we still have not received our refund. I have called the owner many times and each time he assures me my money is on the way, after he acts like he doesn’t remember what I’m talking about. Please do not ruin your trip by staying here. Don’t be fooled by the low price. You will suffer in the long run. When you complain to the owner he simply says, “that’s why we have 2 stars…you can write whatever review you want, but it’s the rate that is important”. Don’t prove him right and take your business elsewhere!

BEWARE. The ocean front is beautiful but this place is a dump. I never actual met the owner of the place and had to call multiple times to be let in. He called the day before to switch our room (not sure why) and the room we got was absolutely disgusting, looked like it had never been wiped down. Years of flies and mold in the windows , bathroom cabinet and toilet cover broke when used once. Bed frame was falling apart (couldn’t lean on it). No blankets and only a few towels that were dirty. Pillows were yellow and stained, bed was hard. And there were bugs EVERYWHERE. Didn’t even attempt the pool as there was no filter. We were supposed to stay for 6 days and we left the next morning. Told the owner we left and never got a reply expect for the cleaning people (?) a few days later asking us about our experience so far. Really disappointing and a waste of our money, don’t stay here.

Romantic get away with my husband Beautiful, romantic and spacious. The ocean view is breathtaking. You hear the waves crash in such a soothing way, all day and all night. You can use the pool anytime of day, and it over looks the beautiful Ocean. Definitely will go back, this time with my kids as well. We loved it
