What a nice find for Jazz Festival opening weekend. We took full advantage of the patio and barbecue grill, loved our view from #6. Ivan and staff were all helpful and friendly, the room was roomy and functional.
Thank You El Terado Terrace! We loved this place, Amazing staff, quick and easy to check in and out, we loved that when we used to go out the room deers will be infront walking or eatting grass, we had a ocean view. The staff went over board to accommodating us. So happy we chose
El Terado Terrace. 😊 see guys again.
It’s cozy and really has the island vibe around it. Locals are friendly and getting a taxi was so easy. Coke machine doesn’t work so don’t put money into it. Room is older but clean. Most Imporantly!!! THE MATTRESS WAS SOFT and comfortable 😃

Disliked: Amenities
If you like self service. This is the place “Front desk” is a tiny booth theoretically open from 9-6 but reality is you have to call their cel phone Don’t sleep in or you won’t get your room cleaned. No soap in shower but you can use shampoo for hand soap. Clerk was nice when we called him. Need strong wrists to turn off shower or else bring a pipe wrench. AC was full blast or turned into heater
The stay was not the best it was not clean at all very down graded and dirty. Not comfortable to sleep either. Very stuffy even with AC and fans running. We would not stay here again. It smelled like weed the whole time as well.
