I absolutely loved my tent stay on Zach and Mariah's farm! I had full privacy when that's what I wanted and a beautiful river so close by! The glamping was comfortable and serene. I got accustomed to the sound of almonds dropping on the tin roof. Lol The tin roof would have been really nice if it rained but fortunately the weather was perfect for my stay. It was a perfect shelter nonetheless. Zach and Mariah are super sweet and accommodating. They showed me a gorgeous river spot. And the animals are absolutely charming 😍 I will definitely return to camp there again!

Zach and Mariah’s land is absolutely amazing! For the past 4 years my son and I have been camping in Puerto Rico for Thanksgiving week, always staying in different areas to really get to know the island. Hands down, their spot is by far the best! Not only is the campsite equipped with most everything you will need, it has a beautiful creek running around and beside it. There are hiking trails to explore on the land, natural pools to soak in with large boulders to relax on, bamboo groves and old growth trees. And the energy of the place is incredible. What we also loved is that when you’re there you feel so far away from civilization but in actuality only minutes away from food, shopping, everything you need. And with Camp Arabuko as our home base, within 15 min to 1 hour you can be at some of the most gorgeous waterfalls and swimming holes on the island!! Or even down to the coast or back in San Juan in less than an hour. This area is now our all time favorite and we will definitely be coming back to stay with Zach and Mariah, whom by the way, are amazing people and so helpful if you should need anything or have questions.. I highly recommend staying here and am already looking forward to our next visit 🌈☀️🌀💦

This campsite is a must-visit on the island. There’s a trail inside the property that leads to a stunning waterfall where you can enjoy the view and even take a swim. The campsite also has chickens, a horse, and a pig, it's clear the host truly loves this place and has decorated it with so much care. She even brought us delicious coffee in the morning, which was incredibly sweet. I’d definitely come back the next time I visit Puerto Rico!

Truly amazing spot to camp. The river borders thousands of acres of protected tropical rainforest. A trail takes you to an epic swimming hole and to a beautiful waterfall!! The bathrooms have the best hot showers on the island. I never ran out of hot water. The covered camping area kept me nice and dry and the stove was handy. The farm and chickens and horse are nice. The hosts couldn't have been nicer! My favorite camp!

It is difficult to overstate just how wonderful this place is. Andres gave us clear and concise directions on how to get there, via pre-recorded video, and that made it easy to get there. The drive itself was marvelous because for the most part you are high on the mountains. We are avid campers and brought everything we needed but have to say that the outdoor kitchen/gazebo was pretty darn cool and convenient! There is a stove, kitchen sink, a “fogón” (cooking fire pit) as well as a full size refrigerator. This was more “Glamping” than “camping”. We camp every month on full moon as I love to watch the moonrise as well as the moonset and this place was particularly special for that. As someone that grew up in Puerto Rico but lived most of my adult life outside the island, what I can tell you about the area is that the residents are extremely friendly, well manners and considerate that I am otherwise accustomed to. Everybody we saw whether driving on or driving out would wave at us, as if we were known to them. I hope you try this place and when you do, I am confident you are definitely going to enjoy it.

Awesome secluded location! Yet you're not to far from good food and tons of adventure nearby. Robert and his wife were super nice and accommodating. If your schedule allows it opt for the breakfast on the balcony! During our stay we did stuff all over the island this place is fairly centrally located. Which was perfect for our trip.

There aren’t many opportunities like this to stay on such beautiful untouched land with an adorable farm, gorgeous nature trails/ hiking for days… I was able to truly disconnect from the normal daily grind and connect with nature and recharge my soul here.

Mariah and Zach are incredible hosts! Accommodating, kind, and very attentive when needed! We are not avid hikers. Not even novice hikers, but Zach was patient and led us on a guided hike through the jungle that we could do that led us to a series of beautiful waterfalls we could play in! We didn’t even wake up sore the next day! There is something to do for everyone! The river is magical with wild ginger growing and every kind of fruit tree you could imagine! Their farm dogs were the absolute sweetest! We got to meet their very friend geese and hold some baby chicks! Mariah gave us a free tarot reading which was fun and Zach took us into town and helped translate in Spanish for us! They took us on a guided tour to El Yunque and a beautiful black sand beach! Tons of good food rec’s as well. Truly the most amazing people! The campsite itself was clean, organized, level, and well stocked with what we needed! We were covered and protected from rain and with the tree canopy we stayed cool in the shade. If you’re looking to feel the healing power of a rainforest and experience what it’s like to live in your own jungle paradise, this is the place!

Experiencia única, el lugar, las vistas, los servicios que incluye todo perfecto, Andrés se mantuvo en contacto en todo momento para responder cualquier duda. Si deseas salir de la rutina y encontrar paz, este es el mejor lugar sin duda alguna. Espero pronto volver😊
