Welcome
A Spell of Nature
From the moment you arrive, the rainforest envelopes you in its spell. Wild sweet white ginger carries magic in the breeze, 26 specialty bird species chatter their secrets & our precious coqui frog sing symphonies of abundance and peace.
The River
Where the Water Touches
We are perched above the Cubuy River (Coo-buoy), hence the name, Casa Cubuy. The name originates from the Taino Indian language, meaning 'wherever you step, there is water'. These cascades still tumble with the vibe of power, peace and healing.
Everything You Need
In our slice of paradise, solar power, Tesla Powerwall & Starlink keep you connected while you get to slow down, breathe deeply and let Mother Nature refresh and rejuvenate you. And, she tends to show off here at Casa Cubuy.

Every Morning
Breakfast
Breakfast is a big deal at Casa Cubuy. A home cooked meal, complete with local produce and our local farm eggs. We come together and break bread each morning. It’s one of the best parts of the day at Casa Cubuy, the smiles and oohs and ahhhs around the buffet.

What our guests say
Casa Cubuy is a little slice of paradise. It was great having very few mosquitoes thanks to the tree frogs. The space is beautiful and it’s such a nice way to experience the rainforest in a relaxed manner.

this property is in a truly incredible piece of the rainforest, complete with waterfalls and swimming holes immediately behind the hotel plus plenty of incredible hikes just a couple miles from the front door.

Matthew and Marianne’s ecolodge and the waterfall it sits atop is genuinely one of the greatest places on earth.

Our Story
Mother & Son
Marianne & Matthew
Marianne is an in-house owner/operator of this amazing land. She truly understands the stewardship opportunity of this little slice of paradise. She moved to Puerto Rico as a single mother to a ‘then’ 6 year old Matthew. As a school teacher at Ft. Buchanan, she began to recreate her life here on the island. As the years passed, she became interested in real estate and bought and sold a few single units in metro San Juan. Then in 1972, she bought this property, a 2 bedroom house. When she retired from teaching she began the process of becoming an Innkeeper.
