What’s Special About This Resort
If you are a nature lover and are looking for an authentic yet luxurious stay in the most natural setting, then the Yuquiyú Treehouses might be the perfect Puerto Rico resort for you. Located at the foothills of El Yunque National Forest, this resort alternative has several artistically-designed treehouses that offer stunning views.
The property has a three-acre organic farm that they use to whip up alchemy farm-to-table vegetarian cuisine at the guest-only restaurant. You can wander the farm and property or head further into the National Forest for some epic hiking. Great beaches and modern amenities are only a 30-minute drive away, but they will feel a world away from your tree house.
Things we like:

-

What To Do
The Yuquiyú Treehouses is the perfect juxtaposition to a giant Puerto Rico resort. With just a few exquisite treehouses in the foothills of El Yunque National Forest, this resort alternative is a nature-lover’s playground.
From your treehouse, you can venture into the jungle, or drive to some of the top nearby hiking trails in the park. There are stunning vistas you can enjoy from the property. If you want to enjoy a stroll, you can check out the three-acre organic garden on the property, and learn about the history and farming of this lush area.
What To Eat & Drink
Breakfast is included in the price at this establishment. You will enjoy Puerto Rican coffee from a local hacienda, granola, coconut milk, yogurt, fresh fruit, and even honey from a local beekeeper.
For lunch, you can venture out or cook in the kitchenette in your tree house. Just keep in mind the property has a no-meat policy, so make sure you cook vegetarian.
Some restaurants claim to be farm-to-table, but at Yuquiyú Treehouses, the food is quite literally picked from the farm and delivered to the table. The chef at Huerto Escondido, the accommodation’s restaurant, uses what’s fresh and inspiring from the property’s three-acre garden.
This intimate and one-of-a-kind vegetarian alchemy cuisine is available for dinner in the restaurant and only for guests of the Yuquiyú Treehouses.
Room Guide
This accommodation features three types of treehouses. This is not a typical resort, instead, think of this as the ultimate glamping experience. Each room comes with one queen-sized bed and is designed to fit two people.
La Cara de Indio: This tree house is located in the heart of a mango grove. It features a chic slate bathroom and gorgeous views, and the inside is 144 square feet, with an 84-square-foot balcony.
La Cascada: This tree house is named after the cascading river below. It is nestled within a Royal Palm grove, with vanilla orchids growing wild around the treehouse. This treehouse has stunning views of the El Yunque mountains, with a large 240-square-foot balcony to enjoy the vista.
El Mirador: This tree house is situated at a high peak, offering unique views of the rainforest below. Perched high above boulders, this tree house has uninterrupted views, with an 84-square-foot balcony.
Special Experiences
Dining at Huerto Escondido is a unique and memorable experience. You can taste unique cuisine that comes directly from the garden on the property. This is one of the best ways to immerse yourself in true Puerto Rican cuisine.
Venturing from a treehouse into the jungle on a trail is another unique and memorable experience. For those looking for beach and civilization, the resort is conveniently located within 30 minutes of great beaches and food in Luquillo, and modernity is just 30 minutes away in Condado.
