The balcony on the 8th floor faced east and we could see san juan and el yunque rain forrest in the distance. we watched... More

The pool and grounds were beautiful. But the timeshare was run down, missing essentials and the repairs made were very poor. The beach, though small and public, was nice. It sits on more of a lagoon (man-made reefs) and if you go out over your knees, it is all seagrass so swimming was a bit out of the question. Our... More

We had a one week stay @ this property in March. On the positive side, it has a decent pool (shared with the Embassy Suites next door), a great hot tub, and a good location (easy access to San Juan, north coast beaches & shopping, and the Toro Negro Forest) & caring staff. On the negative side, the property shows... More

Okay, hotel the room was clean, yes there was a mold problem, but I believe it was because of the hotel being directly on the beach, you'd have the same problem no matter what hotel your in.My biggest complaint was if we wanted to use the internet service we had to sit in the chairs in the lobby,I wouldn't have...

Dear Reader, I would highly advise choosing another resort for your vacation. Here is why: #1 THEY HAVE A SEVERE PROBLEM WITH MOLD IN THE ROOMS. I stayed in a 2 bedroom suite on the fourth floor. (Rooms 2456-2458). The first thing we noticed when we walked in was an over powering dank smell. Sure enough after one night of... More

I am sorry that I chose this place for my stay. We had to fight for washcloths, there is a bad odor, something bit me in the bed all night and the upkeep is far from kept up (the sign is half lit, there was rust all over the fixtures in our suite, etc). We went to another hotel and... More

We stayed at the Aquarius Vacation Club in early November. I was very fearful of going after reading the reviews. I was assured by Interval that they had a new manager and were in the later stages of a renovation. Although it is not a 4 star resort, I was greatly releaved upon arrival and had a pleasant stay.

We just returned from Aquarius Vacation Club at the end of October. We had read such horrible reviews that we were sorry that we booked the trip. Well, we couldn't have been more wrong. While it is not the Ritz or Four Seasons, it is certainly better than most have spoken about. It is situated right on the ocean in... More

Overall, we had a good stay at Aquarius. We were required to book a block off - a one bedroom with a studio attached. It worked out well for us since we were traveling with family, and the price was good (being the off-season helped). During the weekend, the pool area was a little crowded, as it's shared with the...

I have never experienced such mediocre service in my life. I have had to hunt down several members of staff for something as basic as wash cloths 3 nights in a row. I overlooked the fact that the reviews for this place were scathing and I'm sorry I didn't heed the warnings. If it weren't for the Embassy Suites being... More
