    Love this place!

    I had been planning my wedding for a long time and my mother in law did a search on venues for my wedding and one of the places was this Hacienda. I put it to a side since is far from where I live. But I kept looking for places but kept on looking to this one until we decided to go visit. When we arrived we fell in Love! Is far away, quiet and the mountains view, the venue all woods, and the service tha Nydia gaves us was very excelent, she explained so well everything and since that day until today their service has been great and very responsive on every detail. They do a lot of destinations wedding so I decided to let everything on their hands. Thank you for everything, cant wait for December 29, 2019 to make my dream wedding come true!!!

    When I started to plan my wedding I knew exactly what I wanted. I has visited Hacienda El Jibarito before to try their restaurant and fell in love with the place. It is nested between green mountains, and the wood details in the structure gave it so much character. I remember that day they were having a party and roasting a pork in one of the gardens. Being from Puerto Rico I felt it was the perfect place for a traditional event.

    I knew I wanted to get married in the country side of the Island and that I wanted an outdoors ceremony. The graden plaza at the Hacienda is the most beautiful location I could think of. Planning my event with Xiomara and her staff was smooth. They were so flexible and provided great advice. They had answers for all my questions and even recommended other vendors for my wedding. Xiomara was very accommodating with my requests and needs. The best part is I was able to have a beautiful wedding within my limited budget.

    They have 2 rooms for receptions. Mine was in El Alambique which is ideal for small weddings (mine was 60 guests). The salon looks beautiful when decorated. However, if your wedding is in the summer I don't recommend this salon because it does not has air conditioning and it can get hot. But if your wedding is in the winter then it should be fine. The larger room easily accommodates big parties.

    The weekend of my wedding at Hacienda El Jibarito was like a fairy tale. My guests loved staying there and there wasn't anything they need they could't get.

    Our uncle recommended HEJ to us as a venue for our wedding. We were searching San Juan and PR websites for venues that could be a "one stop shop" where we could have the ceremony & reception for around 20 guests, some from the island and some that flew in. We drove the hour and a half to San Sebastián as soon as our plane landed in San Juan. Although she was on her way out the door, Yaritza, the manager, was kind enough to give us a tour and discuss options. We wanted to arrive early on our wedding day,then give our guests the opportunity to relax, ride horses, swim, prior to the wedding that would be at 4pm. She accommodated our needs and anticipated those we had not thought of! The Hacienda is lush and gorgeous. Yaritza also called a planner, last minute, David, who connected instantly with me, understood my vision and taste & agreed to decorate & take care of our flowers! they recommended Beautiful Cakes, which we used as well. David also found a makeup artist to do my hair and face for the big day! Everyone at HEJ was so wonderful, I didn't stress out in the least!! Although it rained on our big day, David anticipated that and decorated the inside as well. it looked amazingly beautiful, simple & rustic. birds of paradise, Anthurium, and ginger arrangements everywhere making it a true tropical paradise!! The food and grounds were also amazing!! We highly recommend!!

    El lugar es hermoso para una boda pero falta mejorar el servicio. La coordinadora del evento en la Hacienda, Joselle, que trabajó con la coordinadora contratada con nosotros se portó excelente y estuvo pendiente de que todo saliera según acordado. Tengo que dar crédito también al trabajo de los bartenders, meseros, empleados ayudando a acomodar cosas, fue muy bueno. Sin embargo, no solo fue la boda, las habitaciones y las villas fueron reservadas en su totalidad por invitados de la boda. Las habitaciones no estaban muy limpias, telarañas y polvo, entre otros, son algunas de las quejas de nuestros invitados. En nuestra habitación "nupcial" no hubo ningún tipo de detalle para nosotros, a pesar de haberles llenado el hotel y haber celebrado una boda allí de bastantes invitados. El único detalle fueron las canastas que mi mamá preparó para las habitaciones de todo el mundo. Por otro lado, el lugar tiene una cafetería con buen café y buen desayuno. Los empleados son muy amables y serviciales. Las personas en front desk, como Waldemar, siempre estuvieron dándonos el mejor servicio.
