Aquarius Vacation Club Boqueron

We were looking for convenient access to the Poblado in Boqueron, Cabo Rojo, a good kid's pool, and access to a beach. And this fit us perfectly. It is normally a time-share facility, but if they have vacancies you can book a studio, 2 bedroom, or 3 bedroom. We got the studio and it only had a small sink, small refrigerator, and microwave, but that's all we needed/wanted. The larger suites have full size kitchens. The room was comfortable when compared to a normal hotel room. The pools were perfect for our five-year-old; they had a kiddle pool with slides and steps and an "adult" pool that wasn't overly large or deep, so it was easy to keep your eye on her from the pool area. The food service is located in the pool area, and they were very reasonable prices, drinks as well. The facility has a gate to the Poblado with access to lots of restaurants within walking distance and a gate to the beach. Parking is free but limited, but still it was nice not to have to pay parking. There is free WiFi access, but it didn't reach our room, however, every floor had tables and chairs in a common area near the elevators and this is where everyone connected. It is not a luxury hotel, but it is perfect for families. We've stayed at 5 star hotels and enjoyed this one more than those. I think we enjoyed it because it wasn't overly full. Try to avoid major local holidays and the month of July. Some of the local restaurants we found yummy were: Galloways, Mr. Mofongo, and Pixa Pixa (a mexican restaurant). And really, the food at the hotel was good. Also, the lighthouse is not too far away (driving) and well worth it. All in all, I wouldn't buy the timeshare, but we will certainly book a future stay here!
