Hello my friends. My wife and I are going to San Juan this Feb. We really love small boutique hotels on or very near the beach. Walking distance to bars and restaurants is great. We are looking at Acacia Boutique Hotel. Does anyone have any experience with this or have any suggestions on other hotels that are similar? Thanks for your time.


I'd like to be a jelly fish, cause jelly fish don't pay rent.

You’re going to love San Juan in February, the weather’s perfect and there’s always something happening. I’ve stayed at Acacia Boutique before! Super charming vibe, definitely has that intimate feel, and it's just steps from the beach. The rooms are on the smaller side, but the location makes up for it. You’re also walking distance to some great bars and restaurants around Condado and Ocean Park.

If you're open to other options, check out The Dreamcatcher, it’s also in Ocean Park and leans a little more boho-chic, with great breakfast and a really peaceful vibe.

And since you're clearly into food (respect), San Juan is one of my picks for the best caribbean island for foodies. From street food to fine dining, the local scene is so underrated.

Hope you and your wife have an amazing trip, sounds like the perfect escape!

While its not on the beach, we love the El Convento in OSJ. Walkable to many great restaurants. The hotel offers a beach club transfer to a sister property but we never toke advantage of that because our SJ stops were always on the way to VI vacations.

I stayed recently at the Dreamcatcher - grabbed a last minute deal the day of. Funky/unique rooms, I had a great stay. Walkable to places to eat and the beach. I've also stayed at the Condado Vanderbilt. Not a boutique, but also doesn't feel like a large chain. Great breakfast buffet and pool.
