“A great escape”

Blue Boy Inn

5 of 5 stars
New Mexico
Jun 22, 2008

We just returned from a week's vacation at Rincon's Blue Boy Inn. Mark made our stay perfect. The room was immaculate with all the amenities necessary for comfort and convenience. The gardens were absolutely beautiful and the pool was refreshing and relaxing. The patio area is set up for BBQ with an inground fire pit to add to the serenity of this tranquil environment. Mark is wonderful and very helpful with ideas for sights and local eateries. He prepared a gourmet breakfast daily of coffee, juice,crepes, french toast, frittatas, fresh fruit and many other items to enjoy. The convenience of having the beach, a restaurant, and pub within walking distance added to the simplicity of this care free, laid back little community. There are many things to do here including snorkling, diving, fishing or just walking the beaches of this warm watered ocean. Everyone here was friendly and willing to make our stay enjoyable. We were sad when our week ended so quickly, but we are already talking about our return to Rincon and the Blue Boy Inn.

“Tranquil Oasis!”

Blue Boy Inn

5 of 5 stars
Minneapolis, MN
May 14, 2008

Despite my initial intentions to keep this beautiful oasis my personal secret, I could not deny Marc the praise he deserves for all the work he has done to renovate this property. Over the past three years, he has transformed a single dwelling property into a tranquil oasis, now with eight guest rooms. Created from a forgotten blank canvas, the rear of the property now reveals a pool, whirlpool, two barbeque terrace areas, a fire pit and ample seating for whatever you’re in the mood for. Although I am no expert, the architecture and design feels Spanish with a Grecian flair. If you are looking for a peaceful place to read or relax, the garden terrace is amazing. Marc’s vision and design has left no detail unforgotten. You truly feel welcomed into his home!

We originally were going to stay two nights and return to San Juan for the remaining two nights. However, after arriving at the Blue Boy Inn, we cancelled our reservation in San Juan, forfeited our deposit, and extended our stay at BBI. A decision well worth it! We will return, again and again!

“Truly a Gem!”

Blue Boy Inn

May 6, 2008

My husband and I only stayed for two nights while attending a wedding in the area but it was a wonderful stay. The room was so neat, comfortable and very clean. The breakfast was delicious and the property was enchanting, with its gardens and pool, firepit area, hammocks, etc. It was very relaxing and we hope to return some day. We have already recommended this place to our friends. Marc is very friendly, and has many recommendations on what to do while on the Island, he does an outstanding job as host.

“I want a place in Rincon!!”

Blue Boy Inn

5 of 5 stars
California
May 5, 2008

Hello Marc!! My wife and I (Garrett and Natalie) came to Rincon out of curiosity, and a desire to enjoy the beach. I wanted to surf and dive, my wife wanted to get a tan. We both wanted a quiet place to stay and love B& B's. We couldn't have found a better place to stay than the Blue Boy Inn...and of course it can always be a little bit of a gamble traveling some place new. Marc and his staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. The inn was comfortable, clean, open, and "safe" feeling. Though there was a bit of noise due to the improvements which Marc is finishing, they were a small price to pay for a very enjoyable time.
Making the stay even better was the fact that I was given a promotion at work(while away) and we found out that my wife is PREGNANT with TWINS!!! --- I think it has something to do with the Puerto Rican water ;-) ......We will be back, when the twins are a little older, and we'll be bringing our whole family next time...me and the FOUR women, I am really out numbered in our family. Thanks Marc....see you soon!
