We really enjoyed our time in Puerto Rico, thanks in large part to this beautiful home. Comfortable, clean, and beautiful. Perfect for bigger groups (9 of us stayed here) with plenty of space for everyone! The hosts are very generous with all they provide to make your stay feel like a home away from home. We recommend this place to anyone looking for a good time in a quiet, safe place close to so many beautiful Puerto Rican gems. Our time in Puerto Rico and this amazing home was one for the memory books!

Penthouse by the beach was what we were looking for. For our families first time to Puerto Rico, this property positioned us perfectly for experiencing all the main sites. This 3 bedroom unit was clean and well kept. There is a huge private outdoor rooftop patio for relaxing, grilling, or sipping your favorite beverages. Two of the three bedrooms have balconies overlooking the complex’s courtyard. There are additional balconies of the main floor too, so plenty of ways to get fresh air!The location seems hard to beat. Roughly midway between San Juan and Fajardo and close to the rainforest, accessing activities is easy. A note, roads in PR have potholes. Be prepared. On the way to the condo, after the turn just past the Wyndham, there is a random speed bump. And just after the speed bump there a DEEP pothole. Be careful, especially at night.

Wonderful Vacation Rental
The property was just as pictured and described. There was plenty of space for family members to get some time away from each other. The complex was very clean, safe, and peaceful. There were riptides at the beach at the complex, but Lucillo beach was just a short drive and perfect for swimming. The location was great for access to Yunque rainforest and island excursions. The owners were great to work with and they made check-in and checkout a breeze.

Pretty much as advertised
This property was pretty much as listedJason and Cindy did a great job communicating. Beds were comfortable except for the pull out couches( which is fairly common)There was a gliche with the water cistern pump when there was a water supply issue but they did correct the problem and send a handy man who was able to fix the problem.The fitness/spa area is on another property and a separate fee which I did not feel was answered directly when originally booking the property.All in all it was a great experience and a good place to stay.

Loved this place!!
We absolutely loved this condo! Stayed here with our two teens and one tween. Plenty of room to spread out. The kitchen and bathrooms had high end appliances and the beds were comfy! The beach is steps away and is gorgeous and private! Great waves to play in. The pool is clean and well maintained and was not crowded at all. The condo had beach chairs and towels and a basketball and volleyball to play on the courts. The kitchen had everything we needed. Jason was prompt and communicative! Will come again!

Oasis
Beautiful place, lot of room for a family or multiple families. Communication with property manager was excellent. All the kitchen amenities, towels, beach chairs, pool toys, grill. Beautiful, relaxing rooftop space in addition to multiple decks off primary bedroom, dining room, living space. Very close to restaurants and grocery if needed, but tucked away in a serene space. I would absolutely recommend this space to anyone!

We loved this penthouse!
My family and I absolutely loved staying at this penthouse. The reviews are accurate. It's clean, beds are comfortable and there is plenty of space to spread out. The kitchenwas well stocked with spices, coffee, coffee filters, flour, oil, etc.. We made several meals and had everything we needed. The bathrooms are stocked with everything you need in case you forget something - including hair dryers. The grounds are nicely kept and so is the pool. We almost always had the pool to ourselves too! It was very peaceful and quiet and we enjoyed coming back to decompress after a day of adventures.

Paradise!
I will start by saying that this was our first time in Puerto Rico. We did not know what to expect and we couldn't have chosen a more perfect location than this. This location made us feel very safe in an unknow place. We loved that the property has access to a very nice private beach which it made it very convenient for us since we traveling with small children. It also has access to a pool which in our case it wasn't busy at all when we used it and we basically had it for ourselves. We loved the access to a private balcony on each room and floor, and we loved the upstairs terrace. It was perfect for those who love grilling or just hanging out enjoying the view. The property is very well decorated and has almost every appliance you can think of, if you decide to cook. One thing I misread was, I thought that this property had 4 bedrooms instead of only 3; however, we still enjoyed our stay and made it work. The owner was great with the entire process and provided good very easy to understand instructions. We will definitely stay at this property again on our next visit to Puerto Rico.
