Picolo recommends · Hotel in San Juan, Puerto Rico
Olive Boutique Hotel
A small adults-only hotel in Condado, where the evening belongs to the rooftop and the lights of the lagoon below.
As the light goes, the rooftop at Olive fills with couples looking out over the lagoon on one side and the ocean on the other. Below, the streets of Condado carry on, but up here it is calm.
The hotel is small and takes adult guests only. It belongs to Small Luxury Hotels of the World and had a renovation in 2024, with a bar and a restaurant on site.
Picolo’s verdict
Why we chose Olive Boutique Hotel
Olive is our pick for couples who want a personal stay in the heart of Condado. You get the neighbourhood’s restaurants on foot and a quiet place to come back to.
There is no beachfront here, so you walk a few minutes to the sand rather than stepping onto it. Families with children cannot stay, as the hotel is adults only.
