Beautiful resort, but...
Gran Melia Puerto Rico was a great resort, however we had to change rooms twice because the first room had no air conditioning (would not cool properly). The resort could not get that corrected so they moved us to another room, then that room had problems with no hot water at times. We upgraded to the royal service and then found out that they only had one butler for about 70 rooms. Great, great, great service when the one butler was on duty, hardly any service when that butler was off. We were there in October and not all restaurants were open every night, plus they are very pricey. Location means you need to rent a car to go to other restaurants and unless you rent the car at the resort they charge you for parking.

AVOID AT ALL COST!!!
Let me start by saying this is a beautiful resort! It all rolls down hill from here. Upon check in they palce a $100 a night hold on you credit card. Which wasnt bad considering you can have all your resort charges taken out of your deposit, BUT PLEASE BE AWARE!! CHECK YOUR BILLS! Every palce we ate at the resort we were OVER CHARGED! The resturant staff at the resort were very RUDE! If you are hungry I suggest you east elsewhere off the resort. You will wait at LEAST an hour for any meal except breakfast. And this was with our party being the only ones in the resturant! WE were charged for a tip twice for the same meal (and yes they add in their tips)one for $25 and one for $19. At another place we were charged for a bottle of wine we didnt order. I was charged $50 for 2 pieces of shrimp at the shrimp at the sushi bar (by the way they were supposed to be $3 each). My husband and I went Puerto Rico to be married in Old San Juan and celebrate our honeymoon here. We both were VERY DISAPPOINTED! We are palnning another trip(elsewhere) so we can erase what was supposed to be the happiest time of our life but turned out to be a nightmare! RUN FAR AWAY FROM THIS RESORT!

Beautiful Resort in Puerto Rico
Great location with beautiful decor. I loved the many fountains and decorative pools. The villas were beautifully decorated in close proximity to the beach. Service was impeccable with very helpful and friendly staff. I would definitely go back.
Traveller's tip on local attractions
The Resort is in close proximity to the Tropical Rain Forest (EL Yunque), which is a must see. Also, close to the city of Fajardo where you can take a ferry to see the smaller island of Vieques.
