Falling Short

This property listing was deceiving and highly disappointing. I did not have a happy sunshine feeling upon entry. This "guesthouse" was very dark and gloomy. The bedroom ceiling fan did not work, and the A/C for cooling this room was weak even on the highest it could be on. I had difficulty getting into the unit as it was not clearly defined which unit to enter. I will say the host was very helpful in identify and directing me to the appropriate unit. I spent 1 night and did not feel safe with the locking system. It was no more than a utility trailer lock. There were no glass windows only screens with metal blinds on the outside including the entry door. If you are a single woman traveling by yourself ...this is not the place for you.

About the host

Hosted by Juan Montalvo & Madeline Dumeng

Host profile image
We’re a Puerto Rican family passionate about hospitality, sustainability, and the value of authentic experiences. From our corner in La Parguera, we’ve created spaces designed to welcome travelers from around the world with warmth, comfort, and respect for nature.
Our project was born from a desire to share the best of our coastal community—its landscapes, its culture, and its people. Every property we manage is crafted with care, from solar-powered systems to the thoughtful details that make each stay special. We believe travel isn’t just about rest—it’s about connection: with the place, the people, and the moment.
We also understand that travel should be accessible. That’s why we work hard to offer well-equipped, comfortable accommodations at reasonable prices, without compromising on quality or service. We want more people to enjoy Puerto Rico without worrying about their budget.
Hosting short-term rentals allows us to do just that: open our doors, meet guests with unique stories, and offer them a clean, safe, and welcoming space where they can feel at home. We love helping our guests discover hidden gems, taste local flavors, and create memories that last.
More than just a stay—we want your visit to be an experience. And we’re here to help make it happen.

Why they chose this property

What inspires us most about La Parguera is its vibrant and welcoming spirit. Life here flows with the rhythm of the sea, the sun, and the kind-hearted people who always have a smile and a story to share. We love how the community celebrates its culture with pride—from the fishermen who pass down their knowledge to the artisans who fill the streets with color and tradition.

We also deeply value the respect for nature that’s felt in every corner. Living surrounded by mangroves, keys, and crystal-clear waters reminds us daily of how important it is to protect what we have. That’s why we’re committed to sustainable practices that help preserve this paradise for future generations.

But what truly makes us fall in love with this place is the human connection. We enjoy seeing how visitors become part of something bigger—a community that welcomes them with open arms, offers authentic flavors, unforgettable landscapes, and moments that can’t be bought, only lived.

What makes this property unique

Guayacan Guest House isn’t just a place to sleep—it’s a thoughtfully designed experience. What sets us apart goes beyond our prime location in La Parguera. Our property blends comfort, sustainability, and budget-friendly value into one welcoming space where every guest feels cared for.

We’re just three minute to towntown and 10 minute from Las Crayolas public boat ramp, making it easy to launch a kayak, explore the water, or simply enjoy the coastal breeze. A mini market and bakery are just a short walk away, perfect for grabbing essentials without needing to drive. And while we’re close to the action, the area remains peaceful—ideal for relaxing after a day of adventure.

Our apartment runs on solar energy, ensuring reliable comfort even during high-demand days, and reflects our commitment to eco-conscious living. It als has 600 gallons cistern for 1-week supply. Guests enjoy 1 full bathrooms, a fully equipped kitchen, memory foam-topped beds, and thoughtful touches rarely found in properties at this price point.

Impeccable cleanliness, fast Wi-Fi, secure parking, and 24/7 personalized support make our guests feel at home—and keep them coming back. We believe quality hospitality shouldn’t come at a high cost, and we’re proud to offer a stay that’s both affordable and exceptional.

In short, we stand out because we care about every detail—from physical comfort to emotional connection with the environment. Here, you don’t just stay—you relax, recharge, and take-home memories that matter more than any luxury.
