A visit to this 19th-century coffee plantation is like taking a trip back in time. The estate has operated for 120 years, changing its cash crop from coffee to corn flour and cotton to oranges as world markets shifted.
The manor house, coffee and corn mills, and slave quarters have all been remarkably restored. The 90-minute tours (services for the handicapped also available) are Wednesday-Sunday and by reservation only (phone 787-722-5882 weekdays and 787-284-7020 weekends).
Between Ponce and Adjuntas, about a two-hour drive from San Juan.
