If you are looking to be one of hundreds of tourists in a five star resort, frequenting chain restaurants, that is not us. We are a unique and quirky guest house nestled into Ocean Park, a beach side community where you will experience Puerto Rico like a local. At Coqui del Mar Guest House, you are family and our goal is to make you feel at home.
Our area is a foody’s delight and you can sample one of a dozen unique restaurants within a 15 minute walk, such as La Cueva del Mar, Bistro Cafe or Acapulco’s Taqueria. A city bus can take you to el Museo del Arte or to Old San Juan to sites such El Morro (a UNESCO site), the cruise ship docks or from there take the ferry to the Bacardi Factory. UBER or your rental car can take you to the gay bars of Santurce (an inland area where most of the larger gay bars are located).
Ocean Park is located between Condado and Isla Verde neighborhoods, equidistant from Old San Juan and the SJU airport. Our area is the perfect home base to further explore Puerto Rico, such as el Yunque Rain Forest, the only rain forest in the US national park system (45 minutes drive east), Camuy Caverns (1.5 hours drive west), or much else.
