Phulay Bay does not have any larger signature or residence villas.
Have you stayed at this one MFT?
We need a place for 2 nights near San Juan in late February, and this is tempting...
I have to honestly say that the cost will be a factor though. We can stay near the city in a variety of properties (Hilton or Marriott) using my accumulated points...
Or at Dorado Beach for $1,500/night plus the additional (more expensive food, resort fee, etc.) costs of being at this great hotel...
What do you think, should we go for it anyway?
