"Opened in 2012 in San Juan’s stylish Condado quarter, O:live Boutique Hotel has been touted as one of the best boutique hotels in the Americas. The owners dreamt up the idea for the 15-room property while honeymooning on Italy’s Amalfi Coast, and they’ve created a place that embodies the laid-back Mediterranean lifestyle. Design elements reflect the cultures of Italy, France, Spain, and Morocco. While Condado’s iconic beach is just over the road, the hotel will also arrange for activities like hiking excursions in El Yunque and glass-bottom kayak tours through the bioluminescent bay of Laguna Grande." - AFAR Editors
