I was hesitant initially because of the mixed reviews, but figured for the price I can't really lose. I was more than pleasantly surprised with the staff and the room. The parking was ample and even if you go out they have staff to accommodate your car in the early AM hours. We didn't try the restaurant, but I did... more

I booked this hotel for myself and two friends, as a one-night stay in San Juan before catching a plane the next morning. We had spent four nights in Condado earlier in the trip, so our primary objective in staying here was not to have a spot from which to explore San Juan, but just to have a place to... more

I stood in Coral By the Sea for 2 nights and that was enough. The location is superb it could not get any better. I was suprised when I saw a flat screen in the room. The bed was overall good, the bathroom was filthy. It has an elevator(good)but it usually doesnt function and when the door opens you could... more

I was traveling solo this time and wanted to experience Puerto Rico for myself, not just staying at a resort all day. So, I decided to stay at Coral by the Sea which was about $76/night all in for a single bed room. My stay for four nights was quite pleasant because I was using the hotel only as a... more

I too was taken aback by the reviews I read but I had to book a room because I was on a strict budget. so let me address a few things... The cold shower..if you are a native puerto rican as I am then you are accustomed to cold showers. So that was fine with me. The staff is very... more

I went to a lovely resort in Fajardo...and was bored beyond belief. When I arrived in Isla Verde, I went to the Coral by the Sea and found a motel -like room with friendly people, lots of places to visit, eat, drink, etc. (all in walking distance). I was estactic. I quickly got over the ugly bed spreads and lack... more

The hotel is located in the heart of Isla Verde, where some of the best beaches and attractions in San Juan are located. However, on three out of five days our room was never made up, at times the hot water would stop working (which was horrible if you had just made it back from the beach and were planning... more

After reading some of the negative about Coral by the Sea Hotel I was a bit hesistant to stay there. Being on a tight budget and only needing one night in Puerto Rico I threw caution to the wind and decided I will stay there. I was very much pleasantly surprise by the staff eagerness to serve. At least 4... more
