Hotel Lucía Beach

Meredith at check in was bordering on rude. Didn’t come across as personal, just like she’s someone who hates her job and possibly her life. But then we didn’t find any WiFi service for our room, despite having seen signs about it in the lobby. So my daughter went back to ask and returned saying that Meredyth was quite rude to my daughter. Made some flimsy excuses, then said she couldn’t do anything about it & told my daughter she could play basketball or volleyball instead. We almost boycotted the hotel restaurant after our check in experience. But our restaurant service was exceptional (sadly, I’ve already forgotten our waiter’s name). And our check out with Carolina was also very pleasant. Think it was just the one person. Hopefully, she was having a bad day and doesn’t treat all guests that way.

We LOVED Hotel Lucia Beach! Such a quiet peaceful little place on such a beautiful ***** of beach. This is not a tourist area and that’s what we were looking for. We had an amazing stay. The staff were wonderful, the ocean was beautiful, and the locals were so refreshing to be around. There was an other restaurant right next to the hotel that had really good food called Coco Mar and the hotel itself had some pretty good food as well! The beach is very natural and gorgeous and we saw a group of locals spend all evening cleaning up the area just because they care about it. If you are looking for a quiet relaxing place to veg out for a few days to unwind this is a wonderful place to go! We were genuinely sad to leave for our next leg of our trip to Culebra/Flamenco Beach. If you have time to explore Yabucoa there is a really cool little spot to check out with a tide pool called Punta Icacos nearby. It shows up on Google maps. It’s a short hike and a climb down a “cliff,” but my 12yr old daughter handled it just fine! Photos included in review are from Lucia Beach in front of the hotel :)

If you want water front, this is it. From my room 20-25 steps to water. View was beautiful. Staff was great. Specially the man at 5am. Thank you. The property does need major renovations. Water came in from the door and had a leak by the balcony. We didn’t notice and our clothes got wet. Bring your own toiletries as there are none. Surroundings are not nice, abandoned houses and graffiti.

The hotel Lucia was very beautiful, quiet, clean and well air conditioned. The staff, very friendly and helpful. I would love to have seen the beach more inviting as you can not really swim there, The pool was good, plenty of lounge chairs and clean. Other then the beach, every thing else met our needs. No regrets with our decision in booking with Hotel Lucia beach.

Very friendly staff and fun pool for families.

We had an absolute blast here! The staff was awesome and shared the best places to eat during our stay! The beach was beautiful, alot of waves but great for beachcombing! It was lively, loud and an absolute blast! There's a cool bar on the property and the locals just flock to it, I prefer lively over quiet so it was perfect for us, just so much energy and fun during the weekend! Maria hit them hard but I think they've done a great job in restoring it! The few abandoned buildings were sad to see as a reminder of Maria but people pulled up, set up a day tent and hung out there, that was great to see! We'd stay again in a heartbeat!

We had a wonderful stay

Love the property itself. The area immediately around looked in need of rehab. Beyond that, really no complaints. Great staff. Clean rooms. Hot water. Fresh towels that were sized appropriately. Good breakfast. Nice pool. Liked the on-site bar. Close to the beach (although not the prettiest beach).

Staff was very friendly, and property had a beautiful view. There was also a nice pool and restaurant on site. My only complaints are that there were a lot of flies in the bathroom of our room, and there were some run down graffitied buildings by the beach that should probably be knocked down as they really take away from the beauty of the place.
