This is a clean hotel with a great beach and pool area. The free breakfast buffett is a real plus. The rooms are comfortable and most have a great view of the Ocean. The service was very good. Isla Verde is very close to the airport. The courtyard is at the end of the Isla Verde "strip", so it is a bit of a walk to get to the other hotels or shopping and restaurants. The only other negative things I noticed were the price of the drinks, and 6 dollars for a beach chair rental. The chairs at the pool are free, and the beach is right there. You can easily go from pool to beach. Very enjoyable stay.
The Courtyard isn't exactly in the quietest part of town (you can hear take offs and landings during the day since it's very close to the runway). After the airport quiets down, it's a nice relaxing beachfront hotel. The casino is small but enough to get your slot machine or blackjack fix in. A wide range of restaurants is in the lobby to serve you. Best of all, the staff is incredibly accomodating, helpful and nice 24/7. The pool/beach attendants are great and the rum drinks are yummy (we even got coupons for 2 free ones). Bed is comfortable, bottled water in the room is a nice touch. All-in-all, a peaceful stay.

This is one of three hotels that I stayed at in this area and it is by far my favorite! The check in was smooth. The ocean front view was amazing. The common areas were bustling but not too crowded. The food was decent but a bit over priced like at any resort. The casino was nice but small. The free arcade was nice as well. The beach was great! Not overly crowded and the staff was attentive. And unlike other hotels, you walk right out the back entrance to the beach instead of having to go through a maze and a gate. Would definitely stay here again if in the area and would recommend to others

The hotel is dated but clean. The staff was fine. Restaurants in the hotel are mediocre but it is fun to watch locals dance in the Salsa bar in the evenings. The beach is better than we experienced at The Intercontinental or El San Juan up the road. However, this hotel is very close to the airport and every twenty to thirty minutes you hear one of the jets take off from the airport. You don't really hear the jets from inside the hotel but definitely while on the beach. Not many restaurants within walking distance and it is a $20-30 cab ride to Old San Juan.

Stayed here 1 night prior to our cruise. the hotel was clean and the staff were very nice. I wouldn't say it's the nicest hotel, but it's worth the money compared to most san juan hotels located on the beach. One annoying thing, was the hotel is very close to the airport so it was loud at times (not the end of the world). The area was good and there are some restaurants in the area (walking distance). I would recommend this hotel and would consider returning if in the area!

The staff was great. Everyone was super friendly and helpful. The beach and pool area were great, not crowded and very clean. The few negatives are that there is no real lounge area in the lobby. You can only sit at a table near the bar or at the restaurant. It is a bit of a walk or a cab ride to go to shops or any other restaurant. Be prepared to hear all flights from the airport. But do not hesitate to stay here if Isla Verde is the location you are looking for.

The staff here is great. Helpful, responsive, and friendly staff made our stay the most enjoyable. Great pool bar bartenders! The location is absolutely ideal, and on the most beautiful beach in San Juan. Hotel rooms are very nice and clean, pool area is awesome and casino is fun! Food and drinks are reasonably priced in comparison to other hotels. Puerto Rico is beautiful and this hotel is amazing. Great staff, great beach, and great rooms at a very good price. it really can't be beat.

The hotel is extremely close to the airport (like you could cross the street and be on the runway), but I didn't find the noise to be obnoxious and constant. The rooms are nice, beds comfortable. The downside is that this hotel is at the very end of the strip in Isla Verde. The closest restaurant outside of the hotel was between a 5 and 10 minute walk. The hotel restaurants were overpriced and nothing phenomenal. The hotel does have a nice beach and pool.

I stayed at the Courtyard for a week in June on business. Isla Verde is great, but this hotel is somewhat removed from the main area (about one mile). The rooms were very clean, internet service is free and the view from the room was terrific. Stay away from the buffet, the food is not good quality for $22. For $150 per night I think the place is great and I would definitely stay again.
