Epic views and amazing hosts at La Posada Mountain Retreat!
La Posada Mountain retreat was an amazing, relaxing experience with epic views from the property. Our hosts Jose and Christine were amazing and very helpful in making sure we found our way there safely. A safe, quiet location and convenient parking by our unit. With picture-perfect views from the heated infinity pool, fire table, and outdoor bar area. Our unit was spacious and stocked with all the essentials. Our hosts were quick to respond and very friendly. They were close and available on the property if we had any questions. We added an optional experience to do guided day tour with our experienced hosts which we loved! They took us to places with amazing views, sites off the beaten path, took videos and photos of us and showed us their favorite hole in the wall must-see bars + favorite restaurants. We loved every place we went to and wouldn't have been able to fit it all in without their guidance. Even with sporadic rain throughout the day, Jose and Christine closely watched the radar to ensure we could see some amazing views in between. We even got to meet some friendly locals! Everyone we want was nice, laid back and welcoming. We got to visit a 200 yr. old bar called "El Ambique" a must see! A piece of Puerto Rico prohibition era history. We met the owners which made it special. Our hosts made the best of our short 2 night stay & adventure! The only thing we regret is not staying longer. This is the first VRBO that we are excited to revisit again and see more of!

Beautiful Sunrises & Gracious Hosts
Breathtaking Mountain Views. Inspiring Sunrises. Serene Nightly Frog Symphony. The BEST Hosts! The hosts live on-site, which was enjoyable and helpful. Highly recommend going on excursions with them. We had the best day at spots we would not have found on our own. Jose was a gentlemen helping us from rock to rock on extreme hiking trails, and was kind to our nervous souls when driving on mountain roads by slowing down and waving the locals to pass (which he did naturally without being asked). We enjoyed their company on a full day of activities from 8am to midnight! Unfortunately, we got some rain during our stay and we're looking for things to do. They found a massage therapist, who lived an hour away, to come and give us massages in our suite. I think they would do anything to give their guests the best experience. I would return to Puerto Rico just to visit them!

Most Gorgeous Views in Puerto Rico
I’m so glad we got to experience our stay in the mountains. The views and sounds of nature are phenomenal from this place. The fire pit and the pool were so perfect to come back to after a day of beaching, exploring, and enjoying adventures. The views are absolutely wonderful during the day, and at night the moon and stars were brilliant as ever. The hosts were available at a moments notice, they stayed on the phone with us until we found our destination when we got lost. They were willing to be as involved as you needed them, but also let you be. I honestly didn’t realize anyone would be on site, and was a little surprised the first day. But then was super grateful to have help at our finger tips. And they were extremely accommodating to us and our vacation needs. I felt very safe and at home. Mountain driving was definitely a new exciting adventure. Honestly the only thing I would have changed would have been the firmness of the bed, it was a little hard for us, but that’s all personal preference. But the outdoor space views, sounds, and the mountain experience make it all worth it. We were talking about bringing family next time. Arecibo is about 40-45 minutes away with lots of activities, restaurants, and beaches. Can go hard during the day, and relax at the VRBO in the evenings. Great experience, thank you so much for the wonderful hospitality. We’ll probably be back!

Amazing Location
Fantastic sunrise views through neighboring mountains and green forests were amazing. A warm pool overlooking mountain valley, grill, fire pit and bar were feet from our rental door. The star gazing from deck is stunning. Above all we loved our hosts. We have never had hosts so accommodating, friendly and resourceful. The cave tour they provided afforded us with a truly memorable experience. Recommendations for restaurants, swimming holes, beaches, hiking trails and other questions were gratefully responded to right away. Jose and Christine are the best hosts!

A Magical Place in the Mountains of Utuado
I was excited to get out of the city and into the mountains because I love the landscape and people out in the country. What I found with Jose and Christina is that they were 100% country hospitality. This lovely couple took the time to lead me to the property, introduce me to their friends, and even find the best excursion so I could feel like I was right back home in nature. I also felt right at home at their place, which is situated in what feels like heaven! I stayed on the deck in daylight and moonlight because it was just so beautiful to take in the mountains while listening to the coquí symphony. If you like making new friends like I do, then I highly recommend you take them up on the offer to hanguear. We went into town together and visited their local spots and I had an amazing time getting to know Utuado and the wonderful people who live there. I already let them know I will be back with my family in tow. I give their home and hospitality my highest recommendation! Hasta la próxima vez!

We stayed here for two nights and the inside looks exactly as pictured. The property is beautiful, the view is unbeatable, and the hosts Jose and Christine are some of the most down to earth people we've had the pleasure of meeting. They really went above and beyond with making us feel at home during our stay and even had a bunch of recommendations on stuff to do around the island! We were able to plan out one of the most memorable days I have ever had thanks to them. We were treated with the best hospitality and we really loved the pool overlooking the mountains, the views were incredible!

The location of the rental is absolutely beautiful and the Jose and Christine go above and beyond to make sure their guests have a great experience. They provide guided horseback rides which we greatly enjoyed - by far the most unique experience my wife and I had during our trip to Puerto Rico. Highly reccomend staying here if you have the slightest sense of adventure and want a taste of what life is like in the mountain communities.

Spectacular Views and Helpful Hosts
The views from the lodging are spectacular. There's an amazing panorama of the mountains and if not the very best view from a pool and hot tub on the island, it has to be in the top 5. The outdoor spaces at the unit are fantastic. It's about a 20-25 minute drive from Utuado on paved roads using highway 111 as the main road. The location is very quiet. The unit was spotless and the bedroom AC worked well. The hosts responded very quickly and were friendly and accommodating with many suggestions about the area. We arranged horseback riding with them and that worked very well and they arragned the outing so my husband could visit his family. The hosts definitely care about you having a good time, and we will definitely stay there again next time we are in the area.

Magical & Spiritual Location
Once you arrive near the top of the mountain after winding through cathedrals of 100+ year old cathedrals of bamboo and lush greenery, you come upon the beautiful house. With horses across the road, chickens and the sounds of birds and coquis, you are greeted by a stunning view of the mountains of Utuado. Enjoyed the secluded and private area and breath-taking and magical only begins to describe the view. The house is comfortable and has all you could possibly need plus a gorgeous, warm infinity pool and relaxing hot tub are there for your own private use. We loved every minute of our stay and will be back again soon! The hosts are quick to respond and really wonderful people. 💛

Remote retreat
My husband and I spent 7 nights at this remote mountain top location and loved it! This location immersed us in the Puerto Rican lifestyle. We navigated the narrow and curvy mountain roads, checked out the local eateries, groceries, and establishments recommended by the host. This location was about 1-2 hours away from south, west, or north beaches which was great for day trips. We loved the views and the pool too! If you are looking to experience the true Puerto Rican culture this place is for you!

We picked this rental because of the amazing views at the top of the mountain. It’s situated in the central part of the island and only 2 hours from San Juan airport. The owners José and Christine were wonderful hosts. We enjoyed the hot tub on the deck. They have horses on the property and offer guided rides. Although we didn’t take one, we enjoyed them. If you want something away from the busy city, beautiful views, I recommend La Posada mountain retreat!

Truly a magical place
If you're looking for a 5 star resort, this isn't your place. If you're looking to escape the rat race and see some of the most incredible scenery and meet some wonderful people, come on down. The apartment was comfortable and the new infinity pool is a great addition. Owners Christine and Jose went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and to share their paradise with us. They took us on several excursions to remote locations and restaurants and introduced us to their friends. Even their young son helped my wife navigate some of the more difficult trails. Everybody we met was really nice to us. Despite our very limited Spanish we were able to get by. There's a bar/general store about a 40 minute walk down the mountain road that has all the basics. We spent an afternoon there and the owner, Wandi, took us for a sightseeing drive and fed us lunch. We feel that we barely scratched the surface of what this area and its people have to offer and can't wait to come back.
