Rain Forest Villa Entrance
Carole's
Rain Forest Villa is a quiet retreat bordering the El Yunque semi-tropical
rain forest. Stay in one of our romantic villas. There are several
ways to rent it, the entire Villa ( 3 bedrooms) or the larger area
( two bedrooms with living area) or just the one bedroom. - Explore
our tropical gardens, be lulled to sleep by the melodic serenade
of the tiny coqui's, indigenous to Puerto Rico. Retreating up into
the hills each afternoon, after a hot day at the beach, is a delightful
way to experience Puerto Rico.
We are located on the boarder of the El Yunque Caribbean National
Rain Forest - off Road 966. Just 4 miles from the highway, close
to stores and beaches, yet nestled privately, near the rainforest.
Approximately 1,000 ft above sea level. Surrounded by vegetation
and exotic tropical flowers and an incredible view of the ocean
and mountains . Evenings are peaceful. The only sounds are the Coqui
(tree frogs) and crickets singing - oops - those night owls too.

You
won’t need much in the way of clothing - old casual wear is
best, except when visiting the cities or hotels.
The
temperature in the forest is at least 10 degrees cooler than at
sea level, we have the trade wind breezes most of the time. Bring
your hiking shoes. With the forest at your doorstep - you might
want to venture out - either taking a stroll through our exotic
tropical gardens or hiking up to our local waterfall.
Most
of the trails for the National Forest are further up on Road 191.
You can spend days hiking and exploring the forest. Visit the El
Portal Tourist Center and see their 10 minute film about the forest.
Visit their souvenir shop - great selection of books about our forest
friends, ask for a trail map too.

We
are not far from the Fajardo Bioluminescent Bay, we have great kayaking
and snorkeling too. If you like the beach, Luquillo Beach is only
15 minutes away and one of the nicest on this side of the island.
After the beach, you can stop at a waterfall near the house, rinse
and cool off. Then come home to your hide away and relax.
.....So
leave that city life behind. Come relax and enjoy how the other
half lives. Vacation with us in our little enchanted world of the
El Yunque Caribbean National Rain Forest. 45 minutes from the San
Juan airport. You will need to rent a car to stay here.
