It was wonderful for what we needed. The place was a little old but we didn’t actually spend a lot of time in the hotel. The restaurants were wonderful excellent staff and great food. But we spent most of our time exploring Puerto Rico. Would definitely recommend Coral by the Sea!!

Place is in a great location. Walkable to the beach and restaurants. Room was clean, shower was broken and unable to change temperature but overall the room worked. Staff is very friendly. Pool is great! Can't speak on parking situation since we used rideshare but it looked like there was some street parking.
