"There are five-star airbnbs, and then there is the Lair of the Octopus - a tropical treasure that fully deserves its own tier. Each day here has been unique and special, whether it's sampling the delicious local cuisine, trekking to a pristine beach, or admiring a breathtaking sunset from the Lair's top deck. There are many reasons why you can see so many lengthy and glowing reviews for the Lair and its hosts. Monika and Nathan's herculean efforts and passion for their work are so palpable, from the personal greetings and goodbyes they extend to guests to the detailed and appreciative touches in guestrooms and shared spaces. Among a hundred plus Airbnb's, this is without question the finest one I've stayed at. It is the pinnacle of hospitality, comfort, and convenience, and I would not hesitate to book again in the future."

"Words cannot express my gratitude for Monika & Nathan. Hands down the BEST hosts I have ever encountered - they made me feel at home, always made sure I had everything I needed, super responsive, knowledgeable and always sharing recommendations. You can tell they take pride in what they do and always looking to improve the property (which is amazing!) and the nicest people you will ever meet. The Lair is like a bohemian paradise with tons of space outside on the property to work, read, stargaze, watch a sunset with a glass of wine. or relax in the hammock. The Loft was spectacular- tons of space, a beautiful open and well stocked kitchen, a projector to watch movies, a balcony to eat breakfast, and a powerful AC! The decor was stunning! They have a cute shop to buy jewelry, art, and other cute items made by their daughters, locals or past guests, plus you can even do a paint & sip on the terrace. This is the best Airbnb experience I ever had, and I will be back! Thank you!"

"We can't say enough good things about Nathan and Monika. They are so welcoming and the sweetest family. We felt safe and comfortable staying at the Lair, and we are happy to call it our second home in Aguadilla. We will be back for sure!"

"Nathan and Monika were very helpfully in finding the local color. They have a fantastic view from their upper decks. It is a fun time to spend in the mornings and evenings. We had a fantastic time beach hopping the north and west coasts from their comfortable and centrally located property. Will definitely stay again, hopefully for longer."

"This was our second time staying with Nathan & Monika. They are wonderful hosts, and it truly is a beautiful place for a peaceful getaway. They create a balanced environment where you can have the privacy of your rented space but also provide shared spaces that encourage interaction with other guests. We will surely be back!"

"We felt right at home at the Lair of the Octopus! We appreciated the original authentic charm paired with brand new amenities, with the rooftop hang outs being a definite plus. Nathan & Monika were extremely kind and communicative, and we look forward to staying here again in the future. Great location with quick access to Crash Boats, Surfer's Beach / easy drive to Rincon for the day and much more!"
