N/A

The Serene House B&B is in a beautiful location close to the rain forest and beach. Our hosts were very welcoming and the breakfast was delicious!

It would be nice to have a small dresser or closet in the room to keep clothes.

Superbe propriété, superbe chambre avec vue sur la piscine, au calme et idéalement située pour explorer les environs - rain forest, Luquillo, Culebra… Pablo est un hôte charmant, attentif et un excellent cuisinier, les breakfast sont fantastiques !

Beautiful property with stunning views and as the name says, it was very serene! The cabin was very clean and spacious with a minimalist approach in my opinion which I really liked. I looked forward to the delicious daily breakfasts cooked & served by the owners who were available at all times.

The path from cabin to get to the breakfast building is steep. I am over 65 with bad knees and wished I was fitter!. The owner helped me most evenings by providing transportation to the cabin which was very kind of him. The

Pablo and Maribel can’t be more friendly and nice. The top bungalows location is just amazing and the whole property is stunning. Every morning Pablo’s breakfast!

Nothing.

Todo increíble, el lugar, la habitación, el desayuno, las vistas, tranquilidad absoluta. Muy recomendable

We stayed at the Serene Bed and Breakfast for 4 nights and the property far exceeded our expectations. It was such a peaceful retreat surrounded by nature. The hosts Pablo and Maribel were the best we have had anywhere we have stayed before. The grounds are kept beautifully and the room was comfortable, quiet and relaxing. Pablo's freshly cooked breakasts were amazing! Hes an incredible cook and we looked forward to these every morning. A fantastic location off the beaten track for a quiet, peaceful stay with the rainforest residents as your neighbours. Loved every second of it and would quite happily have stayed there a lot longer!

The only thing we didnt like was having to leave! .. it was such an incredible place and the hosts Pablo and Maribel were wonderful..I still go to bed listening out for the little "Coqui" at night!

Tutto, una struttura meravigliosa immersa nel verde e silenziosissima. Curata in ogni dettaglio e amata dalla coppia di proprietari, gestita con gentilezza e discrezione. Colazioni salate e dolci a scelta, ogni mattina diverse, davvero ottime.

Tutto perfetto.

Stunning location, beautiful property, painfully maintained to stay beautiful. Pablo and Maribel are amazing hosts, opening up their gorgeous home to us who would normally have an opportunity to stay in such beautiful parts of the world. They were super helpful, understanding and also helped get us reservation at Sama and really nice restaurant nearby on Christmas Eve! One can see their passion for what they have built - from the fresh cooked breakfast to property maintenance. We had the most wonderful two days there with our adult kids.

Nothing to not like.

המקום נמצא בלב יער הגשם, נוף מקסים ליער ולים. פאבלו מארח מושלם, קשוב ושירותי. הבית עצמו מעוצב בטוב טעם, ארוחת בוקר טעימה ומפנקת, ובריכת השחיה מזמינה אחרי יום של טיול בשמורה. מומלץ מאד מאד

Beautiful and tranquil location, with stunning views and very comfy bed. Patio area and hammock were great, rooms a great design with double patio doors for views and lots of natural light. Breakfast was delicious, with savoury and sweet choices and freshly squeezed juice, which set us up for our days of sightseeing nicely.

Nothing!

Un alojamiento de ensueños. En medio de la naturaleza, muy cómodo y con desayunos increíbles. Los anfitriones están muy pendientes y son un amor.

The bathroom in the room haven’t the door but everything else was perfect

El sitio más bonito del mundo, es un lugar idílico, nosotros nos alojamos en una casita y no pudo ser mejor, muy cómodo con todos los detalles. A destacar el desayuno y el trato por parte de Pablo y Maribel, tenemos claro que si volvemos a PR, The Serene será nuestra 1ª opción en Luquillo

Nada, todo fue idílico

un sitio especial, con un gran encanto y perfección en los detalles. Pablo, su propietario una bellisima persona y buen cocinero. totalmente recomendable

la edificacion tiene unos tejados de chapa ondulada que con la lluvia hacen demasiado ruido. a mejorar este aspecto porque ademas , no quedan demasiado esteticos respecto el resto del entorno

The property was beautiful. The food was delicious. It was very clean and love the hospitality

Pablo was an excellent host and made delicious breakfasts in the morning. The property is set up for relaxation and has all the amenities you require. I would stay here again.

Nothing.

It’s a little bit of a drive from the San Juan airport but worth it. I will be finding excuses to visit Puerto Rico just so I can stay at the Serene House again!

Amazing! 10/10! A must stay when in PR! Close to Luquillo and el Yunque! Best service and enjoyed the breakfast! The views are amazing!

Everything was phenomenal. No notes. Would not hesitate to stay here again

What is the max starts one can give- that. Breakfast was delicious, creative and made with fresh ingredients. Prepared with love! Serene is the perfect name for this property. The hosts are wonderfully welcoming and you do feel at home.

More hooks in the bathroom.

The owners is what made the stay beautiful. If you have nice host it really matters. Also Pablo is a excellent cook

Nothing

How serene (hence the name of the establishment) was. You are in your own private rainforest, minus the rain! It is beautiful, quiet with natures sounds and a great location for what we had planned for our trip.

Nothing at all!

Every now and then, you stumble upon a place that quietly imprints itself on your heart, and this place is exactly that! My stay here felt like a deep exhale. The breakfast was delicious, the hospitality was amazing, and the views are beautiful. Make sure to check out their little shop on-site, it has so many goodies. Last but not least, this place is Puerto Rican owned which was very important to us!

There isn't anything I didn't like. Our only mistake was not staying additional nights here.

We loved EVERYTHING about the Serene House. The ambiance, the breakfast, the room, the surroundings, the hosts... it was above and beyond everything we imagined!

Everything was perfect!

Stunning location, with incredibly thoughtful details everywhere you look. Pablo and Maribel were perfect hosts - friendly, helpful, charming and thoroughly unobtrusive. I wish we could have stayed longer and until we return, I wish I could return the calm state of mind promised by the name.

Everything especially the breakfast

No complaints

Very comfortable and well decorated The location is great with the swimming pool and the beautiful garden The owners are very nice and very helpful

Our stay at the Serene Bed-and-Breakfast House was nothing short of magical. Nestled in the heart of the rainforest, the property was absolutely immaculate—peaceful, pristine, and surrounded by the beauty of nature. From the moment we arrived (very early for check-in!), Maribel and Pablo welcomed us with such warmth and kindness, instantly making us feel at home. The serenity of this place is unmatched. Falling asleep to the sounds of the coquí frogs and gentle rainfall was truly a dream. Each morning, they treat you to the most delicious breakfast—thoughtfully prepared and served with care. Every detail of our stay felt intentional and relaxing, and it’s clear that Maribel and Pablo genuinely care about creating a special experience for their guests. We couldn’t have asked for more. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a peaceful escape in nature with incredible hospitality.

It's awesome. Exactly as described on the website, in the photos, and in reviews. Book it!

Great and unique relaxing place to stay in Luquillo if you want to be away from touristy area and be close to nature and plan on hiking at El Yunque.

The hosts are simply amazing, great hospitality, great food, great local suggestions. And the Serene House is gorgeous

The property is beautiful, clean, and serene as the name says. It is located in a rural area but very close to the highway and El Yunque National Park. Maribel and Pablo were great hosts, treated us like family. Included breakfast and special dinner were outstanding. It is a very nice and cozy experience. Definitely will come back.

The hosts were excellent and accommodating. Delicious, fresh made breakfasts every morning. So quiet and peaceful…easy to disconnect and relax. The beach was only about a ten minute drive, the national park about 15-20 min drive, and 45 min or so to Old San Juan if you are interested in exploring. Perfect location, friendly staff…overall five stars from us!

The sea view suite/casita is a dream! To be surrounded by lush rain forest and look out onto the ocean, falling asleep to the sounds of nature, then to wake to a gourmet, homemade breakfast down at the main house—we only wish we could’ve stayed longer! Such a special place with amazing hosts, Maribel & Pablo.

The drive up to the houses is a little narrow, but not worrisome!

The Serene House is an absolute gem. Nestled in the hills outside Luquillo, it lives up to its name in every way. Maribel and Pablo are warm, hilarious, and gracious hosts, and Pablo is an amazing cook. My wife and I spent 3 nights in one of the casitas on the hillside above the main house, and Maribel and Pablo's transformation of the property is nothing short of amazing. They are very knowledgable of the local dining and activity options, and didn't steer us wrong with their recommendations of where to eat and what to see and do during our stay. We will be going back!

Top notch in every way. Friendly accommodating staff. Wonderful breakfasts. Location was close to everything, yet quiet and peaceful. Great views of the rain forest and distant ocean.

Nothing to dislike

The Serene House is definitely a place we will return! The hosts are incredible and the room and food are both excellent. Lovely views, quiet and very peaceful. Recommending to all my friends!

The Serene House Bed and Breakfast was an absolute gem. From the wonderful breakfast to the incredible views, the peacefulness of the grounds and the wonderful owners. I would definitely recommend staying at The Serene House Bed and Breakfast.

We absolutely loved staying here and highly recommend it! The views are stunning, the food delicious, the atmosphere peaceful, the rooms comfortable and Pablo and the team were so welcoming. Amazing location a close drive to the beach or to hikes. Can’t wait to stay here again and again!

Amazing property the hosts care a great deal in what they have created and continue to augment and improve. Lovely spaces, views, and accommodations.

When you arrive here, you are treated like family. Pablo and Maribel are such warm, caring hosts and you feel at home right away. The big house is a work of art in and of itself with a tranquil pool outside and breeze filled common area where Pablo serves up both savory and sweet unique breakfasts every day. Our casita was private and very zen. Every detail was carefully attended to including artwork, lighting, shower, and outdoor access. All of this is tucked away in the beautiful hills away from the main towns in this region; yet very accessible to all the great activities including the beaches and rainforest. We cannot imagine staying anywhere else when coming to the eastern region of Puerto Rico. This was hands down the best bed and breakfast experience we have had in our 30 plus years of travel.

Maribel and Pablo were excellent host. The breakfast was off the chart. Communication was easy. Any recommendation they provided were on par! The pool was clean, clear and delightfully refreshing. Our room overlooked the pool, and it was extra convenient to take a short dip or eat a late lunch.

Excellent stay and place. A hot tub would be nice

Stylishly appointed property throughout. The hosts made you feel welcomed. Breakfast was always delicious.

Nothing

I loved everything about this bed and breakfast. From its location, to the beautiful surroundings, VIP accommodations, gourmet breakfasts and amazing hosts. Looking forward to visiting real soon! :)

Everything was perfect: the place, the house, the people, the breakfast, their incredible views, and the peace and tranquilo

Nothing at all

Everything. Beautiful, quiet property close to beaches and hiking. Wonderful hosts.

Having to leave.

Beautiful views, clean comfortable casitas, tasty breakfast, beautiful pool and a responsive host. We will definitely return. Would be a perfect setting for a family reunion!

This B&B is new and very beautiful. The property is amazingly beautiful - on a mountain at the edge of the rain forest with stunning view of the mountain sides and the ocean. The owners have created a very peaceful and beautiful bed and breakfast. They live in the main house with a lovely pool. Breakfast is served in the main house and is quite nice. They have 6 new stand alone cottages along the mountain side. No mosquitos, very comfortable, sweet sounds of Puerto Rican frogs can be heard at night coming from the nearby forest. We loved it. Also highly recommend Sama Restaurant in nearby Luquillo for dinner or lunch.

The setting was stunning Hosts helpful and very kind Breakfast was fresh and exceptionally good Relaxing stay guaranteed

Uber found it hard to locate - not the fault of the hosts

Our stay at the Serene House was amazing! Pablo and Mirabel are amazing hosts and breakfast was some of our favorite meals in PR. Beautiful home and views and would recommend to anyone!

A great place to relax. Beautiful views, great breakfasts and gracious hosts. The property was decorated beautifully with wild parrots and other birds flying nearby. We would love to go back.

Everything was exactly as we hoped and was pictured; the owners are fabulous and really made the difference in the stay.

There was nothing we didn't like. Literally nothing.

Beautiful grounds, delicious breakfast, and wonderful salt-water pool. The proprietors were thoughtful and very helpful. We were there four days and would stay again unreservedly!

N/A!

beautiful property, excellent service, delicious breakfast, good location

no restroom door in casita, shower didn't drain very well, short breakfast window

Beautiful and peaceful experience. Best free breakfast in Luquillo . The owners are warm and friendly

Views were great

It was all good

Situated in a beautiful hilltop location in the rainforest, the Serene House is just that- Serene! Just outside of Laquillo and Farajdo it is an ideal location for seeing El Yunque National Forest. Pablo, the host, gave us a warm welcome and was very gracious and helpful. He provided us with everything we needed during our stay. The breakfast each morning was lovely and the balcony overlooking the pool and forest where we ate was breathtaking. We particularly enjoyed the coffee and fresh fruit that he made topped with passion fruit juice. We would highly recommend the Serene House to anyone who wants to explore El Yunque and surrounding area.

Beautiful, peaceful, and lush property, with tasteful details. The hosts were top notch and went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed

amazing location, amazing hosts, amazing breakfast! we had an absolutely great time staying here and it made our time in puerto rico extra special. maribel and pablo were super welcoming, friendly and very knowledgeable about where to go and what to do. if you get the chance to stay here, do! you will love it!

you wont want to leave.

The Serene House lives up to its name - it is truly a serene and relaxing place! The property itself is stunning, with views of the ocean from atop a lush hillside; the surrounding forest creates a quiet retreat for guests. We particularly loved going to sleep with the sounds of the coquis and owls just outside. Rooms are clean, comfortable, and well-appointed, and there are ample luxuries, such as a pool, patio, and common areas. Owners Pablo and Maribel seem to really love having guests - we enjoyed our conversations with them each morning as we planned our day, and Pablo wowed us with his cooking skills at each breakfast! They took time to answer our questions (identifying local birds), to give us dinner recommendations, and to ensure we saw some of the best of the island. The Serene House is a gem that we highly recommend!

Our stay was perfect. Couldn’t ask for anything better freshly cooked breakfast. Pablo was an excellent host. Will stay again in the future. Also, it was very peaceful great relaxation

This was a surprise birthday trip for my daughter and her boyfriend. They had an amazing time!!

The stay was way too short. Need to come back for a full week of peace and tranquility 🥰

First and foremost Pablo and Marebel are amazing host, great communication pre arrival to end. The property is simply amazing, private.. lush greenery... architecturally beautiful to look and stay at. The casitas were very comfortable and clean and had everything you could want. Beautiful view of the rainforest and ocean. Short distance to food and beaches and stores and rainforest. The breakfast was freshly prepared and choices even for vegetarians like us. We highly recommended this place, do not hesitate to book you will not be disappointed.

Meals were extraordinary. The gentleness of our hosts way: how they speak with us, there’s no question left unanswered but done so in a thoughtful way. Care for every detail in the house, the gardens, the pool yard. The hosts shared their affinity with the island, their knowledge of special places and people. The inn is unique in its size, design, beautiful in its curation, elegant in its openness.

Nothing else comes to mind.

10 out of 10 would definitely recommend. Maribel and Pablo were excellent host. It absolutely felt like I had spent a few days away with long time friends although, we had just met for the first time. The room was beautifully curated and smelled so fresh and so clean. The breakfast was a true culinary experience. Buen provecho! The salt water pool was warm and perfect for a good swim. The biodiverse grounds provided a truly “serene” atmosphere. Just a gem in every way.

This is one of the best places we have ever stayed in. We stayed in a separate building up the hill with a magnificent view and chorus from coqui frogs. The host Pablo was very talented at making us a delicious breakfast and providing us with information on things to do in PR. It was an amazing, beautiful, and tranquil stay.

The Serene House is stunning. Customer service was outstanding and food was amazing! We enjoyed our staying and looking forward to our next visit.

The property was beautiful. Grounds were perfectly manicured. The breakfast was delicious! Fresh fruit was perfect! You will not meet better people the Paublo and Maribel! They will whatever they can to make sure your stay is perfect! The Casita is wonderful. Really enjoyed the view of both the mountains and the Ocean. two beautiful beaches close by. The Casita was clean and neat. Shower had plenty of water pressure and was also very clean.

Property was perfect!!

This place was so peaceful. Clean. Calm. Perfect for a get away. I came here alone and I had an amazing time. I felt safe at all times. Deff will be coming here every trip. 1000 stars if I could and the cheff cooks so good he needs to open uo his own restaurant! When you go here ask for the omelet bc it’s too tier !!!!!’ Loved every min I wish I could live here ! I stayed in the room with the garden view! Super clean place !

A beautiful, serene location in the heart of PR...well-hosted, well-designed, and very cool. Amazing hosts.

Pablo and Maribel go above and beyond to make you feel at home. From the amazing views, home cooked breakfast, genuine conversation, and helpful recommendations - I can't wait to come back!

By far, the loveliest, friendliest, most peaceful and well-run bed and breakfast I've ever visited in Puerto Rico. The place is exquisite, the owners Pablo and Maribel couldn't be nicer, and the location is both spectacularly beautiful as well as close to great beaches, waterfalls, hikes, and the town center of Luquillo. Pablo makes a delicious, fresh breakfast each morning. He and Maribel are happy to help with suggestions for day trips and dining. A salt water pool makes it easy to spend an entire day right there, surrounded by the gorgeous property. We really enjoyed the hilltop casita we stayed in, with views of the ocean and sounds of the rainforest. Also the most comfortable bed ever!

The length of our visit. We didn't want to leave!

This little treasure was simply magical. The location is tucked in the lush tropical mountainside with private casita rooms complete with a hammock and deck to enjoy the sound of coqui frogs. We looked forward to the delicious breakfast each morning. And our hosts with very warm and always ready with great suggestions for local restaurants. Also bonus - got a beautiful silk dress in the little shop in the guest living area. We hope to return one day!

Owners were very welcoming and accommodating. Very good food. Beautiful location.

Hot water did not work.
