Kumud K. Business - Confirmed reviews ALL

The AC in our room wasn't working and after calling 4 times and being told someone is on their way, no one came. Eventually we had to escalate to a manager at the front desk who ended up changing our rooms but it was not something I would expect from a brand like Fairmont

Dear Kumud K., Thank you for sharing your feedback regarding your recent experience. I sincerely apologize for the inconvenience you encountered with the air conditioning and the delay in response from our team. It is our priority to provide excellent service, and I regret that we fell short during your stay. Your comments are valuable in helping us improve our operations and ensure a better experience for our guests in the future. Best regards, Fairmont El San Juan Hotel

Great outdoor space, plenty of chairs at pool, rooms dates and not terribly clean. Food was just OK.

Jefferson M. Families - Confirmed reviews ALL

Generally and overall nice, but experience with beach chairs and umbrellas is problematic. There are no written instructions about the process and rules other than a sign: “Dear Guest, Please remember beach and pool chairs and are available on a first come basis and may no (sic) be reserved. Personal items left unattended will be turned into lost and found, and the chaise lounge will become available for other guest to use. Thank you for your understanding.” We inquired how to get an umbrella and 2 chairs at the beach, but really couldn’t get an answer, I believe at least in part due to a language barrier. Eventually we saw how other guests did it and tried again, this time asking for an umbrella and 2 chairs and tipping $20, and we got an umbrella opened and pads and towels placed on 2 chairs. We then put our belongings on the chairs and went back to the room to get our daughter. About 55 minutes later we returned to find our belongings in the sand and people on our chairs. We spoke with the people and they said that the sign that I quoted gave them the authority to take our chairs and place our belongings in the sand. We went to the stand and explained the situation, and really couldn’t get an answer as to who was in the right, but the attendants agreed to send someone over to see if the people were guests at the Fairmont, and if not, they would “kick them out.” I walked over to the chairs with the attendant and a conversation was initiated in English. However the 3-way conversation in English quickly switched to a 2-way conversation in Spanish, which excluded me, and then ended with no explanation other than a shrug. There were no more umbrellas. They got some broken chairs for us that we placed under a nice shade tree, but we really felt let down.

Dear Jefferson M., Thank you for sharing your feedback regarding your recent stay with us. We value guest input as it helps us improve our services. I am pleased to hear that you found the overall experience nice; however, I deeply regret the challenges you faced with the beach chair and umbrella process. Our policy clearly states that beach and pool chairs are allocated on a first-come, first-served basis without reservations, and I understand how the lack of clear instructions may have contributed to your difficulties. Additionally, I acknowledge that language barriers can complicate communication, and I apologize for any frustration this may have caused. It is disheartening to learn that your belongings were moved while you were away. While our staff strives to ensure that all guests adhere to our policies, I regret that you felt excluded from the resolution process. Your experience is important to us, and I appreciate your insights regarding communication and service. Thank you once again for your feedback, and we hope to better serve you in the future. Sincerely, Fairmont El San Juan Hotel

Toya C. Friends - Confirmed reviews ALL

Overall, we had a beautiful stay at the Fairmont El San Juan and truly enjoyed the property, amenities, and atmosphere. The resort itself is stunning, and once settled, everything felt elevated and relaxing. However, our arrival experience was disappointing. One of our villas was not ready until much later in the evening, which created a significant inconvenience for our group as we had to share space to prepare for dinner and adjust our plans. While this was frustrating, I do want to acknowledge that the management team responded appropriately and worked to make things right, which we appreciated. The remainder of the stay was enjoyable, and the staff we interacted with were warm and professional. With improved coordination around room readiness, this would easily be a top-tier experience from start to finish.
