Located a mile from the airport but away from the noise and only a short taxi ride away. The Verdanza Hotel is steps away from a bus stop. Visit our concierge desk for information on routes and itineraries. In addition to a bus stop across the street and a car rental office on the property, a trolley service courtesy of the Municipality of Carolina takes guests around and about the Isla Verde area. Called SiTrac, the distinctive red trolley bus completes its route every 25 minutes from 6 am to 5 pm. Taxis are also easily available at the hotel, day and night.
The Verdanza Hotel, Carolina enjoys a superb location in the heart of Isla Verde, Puerto Rico only steps away from one of the Caribbean's liveliest white sand beaches and other great area attractions. At night, Isla Verde comes alive with a wide range of nightlife choices, from live entertainment, to dance clubs, casinos, and restaurants.

Eighty 20 Bristo
Against the backdrop of a minimalist dcor in shades of black, white, and orange, this South Beach-inspired bistro features a cuisine that ranges from modern interpretations of classics, such as the Baby Kobe Burgers, to full on fusion dishes such as the Grilled Caribbean Jerk Shrimp with Coconut Risotto and Pineapple 'Pico de Gallo'.
In the bistro tradition, a great variety of salads, sandwiches, and tapas are among the menu offerings at this San Juan restaurant at the Verdanza Hotel.
Damin Hernandez, Chef de Cuisine, is a classically-trained chef who has mastered the art of blending 'haute cuisine' with his own homegrown spin using locally-grown ingredients such as root vegetables, fresh fruits and herbs. Chef Damin oversees the kitchen for the Eighty20 Bistro.
Coladas
It's the first authentic Puerto Rican eatery to become a signature restaurant for a major local hotel, the Verdanza Hotel in Isla Verde, Puerto Rico.

A shaded veranda allows clients to sit outdoors as the sunset gives way to the nightlife Isla Verde, Puerto Rico.

Good value near beach and airport

We enjoyed our stay at this full service hotel. The rooftop gym was a pleasant surprise. Baron provided good restaurant suggestions. Since most of the nearby restaurants are chains, expect to drive to more unique or authentic restaurants. The bed could have been more firm. The bathroom light switch was in an awkward position. Good value for the amenities and location.

Location well situated for Business & Pleasure

A new Vibe is what Verdanza expresses very well. A Boutiquish style hotel, well situated in the Isla Verde area, only 5 minutes from the A/P. Food & Bev outlets are sub leased operations and offer good food & drink at fair prices. Rooms are small and somewhat tight with the large furniture assets in the rooms like King Size 4 post beds that don't allow for ease of mobility. Overall = I'll be back on my next trip

Caribbean's Most Friendly Island

From the moment we set foot on the island up until we left, hotel staff & every local person was warm, friendly & helpful on places to eat, drink & see. The food & hospitality was wonderful. I just wish littering was much more inforced & everyone was more considerate of the environment. In all a fantastic vacation.
