Yuquiyu is a small luxury resort and spa on the edge of El Yunque rainforest in Puerto Rico. Named in honor of the Taino natives’ god of creation, this exclusive retreat is a place to reawaken the senses in harmony with nature. You’ll be inspired by the view from your villa, the tranquility of the tropical garden, museum-quality art, Caribbean cuisine, rejuvenating spa therapies and island explorations.
Only ten minutes from the heart of El Yunque rainforest and fifteen minutes from famed Luquillo Beach, Yuquiyu is within an area of northeastern Puerto Rico the Sierra Club believes should be "a prime destination for ecotourism". With a guide or on your own, discover the nearby rainforest, multi-hued beaches, coral reefs, a bioluminescent lagoon, ancient petroglyphs and a Spanish colonial city.
Yuquiyu will open year-end 2010 – check our website for details!
