1 night at Rainforest Campground & Glamping

I was lucky to have the campground to myself the whole evening. As a solo traveler I was a little apprehensive at first, but everything was so well organized and communicated. I was able to speak to Adam on the phone, he sounds like an awesome dude who truly looks after guests! Sunset and sunrise were gorgeous, and the sound of the frogs, while yes very intense at first (right by my head outside the tent!) it ends up quieting thruout the night. I saw a few posts about people saying the tents looked nothing like the pictures and wasn’t sure what quality to expect. They are only a different color 😂 still just as good! The road up is a tight one, just hug the edge and slow down. Great spot! And the stream was amazing!

Great place for camping! Hot showers and toilets are a super plus! Hiking is a bit extreme but the views and magical place is well worth it! Easy and convenient to get there. 15min drive to Utuados main town.

3 nights at Rainforest Campground & Glamping

Really beautiful land and very nice set up! We “glamped” in the tent/bed set up and found it very comfortable. We appreciated the fan provided to keep us cool at night. The bathroom and shower were very nice as well! We really enjoyed the jungle walk on the property (but know it’s not for the faint of heart. Very difficult both up and down but WOW so worth it!!) I would recommend arriving in the daylight hours - even with very amazing directions from the host it was difficult to navigate in the dark. Plus, you need to be prepared for an intense drive to the site. Roads are narrow (to the point that you feel it should be a one way but cars will certainly be coming from the opposite direction), curvy, mountainous and a bit pot-holey. This is how a lot of the roads we traveled in Puerto Rico were so just be aware!! We chose to not use the kitchen facility and personally wouldn’t recommend relying solely on that as a means for your meals. Another recommendation is to bring ear plugs! It is SO COOL being immersed in the rainforest but you can’t comprehend how loud of the Coqui (frogs) are & they have a high pitched cry that can easily keep ya up at night. Overall, great and unique experience while in PR!

2 nights at My Little Shack by the Sea

This place is amazing. Honestly, it's one of the best places we've ever stayed. It is right over the ocean, has everything you need to cook, and is just so incredibly relaxing. Sitting in the breeze and looking out over the water is heaven. We also rented the house kayak and went over to a nearby cay and snorkeled. It's also possible to kayak around the corner to the La Parguera bio bay. So cool! We would stay here again without hesitation and recommend it wholeheartedly.

This place was beautiful and perfect! Our site wasn’t right next to anyone which we loved and it had an amazing view! It was camping but a little less stressful as they had so much already there for you ready to use. The bathrooms were even nice! I would def recommend this place to everyone!

Lovely grounds, spectacular views, very private and peaceful

3 nights at Rainforest Campground & Glamping

Beautiful! We all thoroughly enjoyed our Lakeview glamping experience! The tent was perfectly set up for two adults and two teenagers. The beds were comfortable. The View outstanding! The kitchen was perfectly practical even with all the leaks, as it rained HEAVILY every afternoon. HOT showers. Lovely walk to the stream and waterfalls. A MUST do adventure! We were sad to find the firewood punky and soggy. All in all a fabulous experience.

EXCEPTIONAL LOCATION! Loved everything about the trip, and the host's flexibility. There are nice amenities as described and the view is breathtaking. We loved the versatility of the space, where people can either stay at the house, glamp, or camp. Makes for a perfect family trip with diverse generations. Will come again!

1 night at Rainforest Campground & Glamping

Adam’s place was absolutely mesmerizing! The views took my breath away. We had the entire glamping site to ourselves and enjoyed the shower and clean campsite. We walked the trail down to the water which was an adventure in itself. Highly recommend ordering dinner to be brought to you. My kids, husband and I loved sitting out by the fire looking down the beautiful mountain eating some of the most delicious authentic Puerto Rican food. Could not recommend this place enough.

We had a great time at Adam’s property. Tent was comfortable and had everything we needed. The views are amazing and the jungle trail down to waterfall was the highlight of our stay. I highly recommend trying out their glamping experience.

1 night at Rainforest Campground & Glamping

I had a great experience at Adam's land. Scenic location, a well-groomed landscape, and is immaculate. Adam is responsive and responsible. He promptly addressed the questions and concerns I encountered upon arrival.

This property was once a religious shrine. It was purchased by an American Rock Star as a pet sanctuary. Once we bought this place we though it was appropriate to call it, “The Sanctuary.” We use a portion of the income at this property to help our nieces/nephew's with their schooling and college.

This is a rural area, immersed in the lowlands of Carite Forest, only a few houses nearby. At the property you will have a little more than 4,000 squared feet only for you and your group. When you book this place it will be totally reserved for you. The property is still recovering as all our forests are, after massive hurricane in 2017. You will see many trees growing back again. Most of them are native and protected.

My Little Shack by the Sea

1 site · Lodging1 acre · La Parguera, PR

Property is less than 1 acre, it is approximately .25. Himpcamp website doesn't allow me to place that specific information. My Little Shack is a wooden structure property with kitchen and living room open spaces, it has 1 private room with 1 full bunk bed and another full size bed, one bathroom. No a/c, tv, microwave, hot water. Capacity for 4 adults. By kayak you may visit, preferably at new moon night, one of the 20ths world's unique Bioluminiscent Bay. PR has 3 and one of those is just minutes away to experience! You'll get to the shack house by a dirty and bumpy road, 32 steps up stairs, must be in shape! Also you can anchor your boat almost in front of the property (there is no dock for boats there, but you may dock your dingy while visiting Parguera Village, advanced notification has to be made for arrangement.) Birds, lizzards, manatees, starfishes, stingrays, dolphins, brilliant stars night and breathtaking blue skies, don't say about our sunsets and sunrises! Amazing cays are another natural atractions, ask for Mata La Gata sea pool area. Water in front of the house isn't suitable for swimming if you are not related to waters surrounded by mangroves but you may visit Parguera sea sighting by your boat, by in site boat rental at Parguera, parasailing, diving and many other tours... By car there are plenty of different kind of beaches at nearby towns. There are safe trails to explore. You may search for Parguera, PR, to take a glance of what you are missing! Puerto Rico, as a whole is 100 x 35 square miles, is a tropical island with a variety of unimaginable places so get ready for adventure! USA citizens don't need passport, a valid real id is all you need! What are you waiting for?
