Reggaetón superfans have the opportunity of a lifetime to stay at Daddy Yankee’s private home in Luquillo for the first time ever, while he’s away

With countless awards, number one hits and chart-topping music videos, Daddy Yankee is one of the most recognized Latin music superstars of all time, helping to lead in the genre’s resurgence.

The mountain retreat is where he goes to get away from it all, and ground himself in family and the beauty of his country’s history and traditions.

“A love for music and for Puerto Rico runs in my blood,» said Daddy Yankee. “By hosting these stays, I want to share la cultura de mi gente, our pride and our flavor – and demonstrate how easy it can be to invite others into your world, with el calor that completes it.” 

Daddy Yankee, staying true to his Latin roots and the heritage that thrives on hospitality, is opening up his Puerto Rico home for three individual one-night stays for up to two guests, occurring on December 13, December 15 and December 17 for only $85* a night – commemorating his more than 85 chart-topping singles. Daddy Yankee will virtually greet guests upon arrival; and during their stay, guests will get to experience all the things that he loves about his home in Luquillo, including:

  • Vibrant and contemporary decor by local designer Fernando Rodriguez, that’s inspired by Puerto Rican culture and some of the musician’s biggest hits like “Gasolina,” “Con Calma,” and “Dura.”
  • Access to Daddy Yankee’s private memorabilia, including his vast awards collection, and more.
  • Swimming in the outdoor pool or playing dominos in the pool house.
