Why the Owner Chose Rincon

We had been renting in the neighborhood for years and had been looking for our dream home. Once this house went on the market we jumped on it. It had all three characteristics that we had to have #1 VIEWS: incredible ocean views, stunning sunset views, and views to Desecheo Island. #2 LOCATION: Located in the Tres Palmas Marie Reserve on Steps Beach, which happens to be the prettiest beach in town. #3 PROXIMTY TO OCEAN: No need to get in the car to go swimming, snorkeling or surfing! Just walk out door and onto the sand.

The Unique Benefits of this House

Quiet, peaceful neighborhood, Steps from the beach. Starry nights, shooting stars, sunfilled days, gorgeous sunsets. World class snorkeling and scuba diving right in front of the house. On the rare occasion some of the biggest surfing waves in the world. Hawksbill turtles living on the reef in front of the house. Swimming with turtles. Watching whales breach from the deck.

    • One of the highlights of our honeymoon. Great owners with a great spot right on Steps Beach. The charm and ambience of this house is a perfect match for the same of the area of Rincon. We loved Rincon and staying here was an amazing experience...best snorkeling ever and all the toys you need right at the house, including an amazing Dead CD collection!

    • I have had the pleasure of staying at "R" Beach House several times and can't say enough good things about it. The location is spectacular - steps from one of the most beautiful beaches you'll ever see and centered on the Tres Palmas Marine Reserve, which has phenomenal snorkeling. The house is comfortable, cool and airy and all the details have been thought through to make your stay enjoyable. The beds are comfortable and the only noise you'll here is from the waves crashing gently on the beach right outside your window. Ali & Leon are wonderful hosts who can dial you in to the best of Rincón (and beyond). I just spent a week here with my sons and we had a blast spying sea turtles in the marine reserve, lounging in the sandy tide pools and spending lazy afternoons in the hammock. We can’t wait to come back and when we do, we’ll be staying at R House.

    • This place was the perfect spot for our adventure. Originally, I was looking for hotels, but with three girls on a budget, I switched my search for Vaca Rentals. Every review on this page sold me... so, I'll add one too. First of all, Ali & Leon are awesome hosts. They replied to all my emails before we arrived and sent me lots of info to help me plan our trip. Upon arrival, there was a big thick binder full of maps, brochures, info and menus to peruse. The place is sweet, has what you need, comfy beds, and it was well stocked with a lot of cool amenities including beach chairs, snorkeling gear, surf boards, sunscreen, shampoo, full stocked kitchen (we cooked a lot!), towels, etc... It's the quintessential pad for caribe travel. Clean, simple and chill. Now, for the ultimate selling point, the location is KILLER! It's literally right on the beach. Yup...Right on the beach. And not just any beach, a Marine Reserve. I explored every beach in the area and Tres Palmas where the house is, was the cleanest and the nicest. According to the surfers, this beach has some nasty waves (nasty is good!) in the Winter. When we went, it was all about the world class snorkling. Oh my! I took a few dive trips and the first one ended up taking us practically right in front of the house. I have done a lot of vacation rentals, and if you haven't tried it before, Ali and Leon are primo examples of why you should. They are some of the best vaca rental hosts I've met yet. "R" Beach House rocks! You get to live like a local and in the best spot in town. I'm definitely coming back with my son later this year.

    • A fantastic spot. Perfectly situated to enjoy the most spectacular snorkeling I've ever experienced. Comfy beds and hammock, great lounging areas. Quiet, secluded with breathtaking views. We were 1 couple and two singles, and it served us perfectly. The hosts were always on hand to assist us, and were very knowledgeable about the services and best food options. Nice, nice people. No downside. No need to look further. This is Rincon, personified.

    • The photos on this website do not do this home justice! From the moment you walk in you know this is going to be a great stay. The attention to detail is beyond any 4-star hotel we've stayed in (beach bags neatly hanging on the wall for your use, both beach AND bathroom towels neatly folded in the linen closet, masks and snorkles standing by, cold water in the fridge, etc...)! You can tell the owners (Leon and Ali) care about what they're renting. They both are close by for information, recommendations, or a chat. The beach couldn't be any closer and the snorkling is AWESOME (we swam with a turtle, saw loads of fish and squid!!)!! For those of you who believe in magic...this is where you'll find it. One of the best weekends we've had. Thank you Leon and Ali...and Sinkerdoodle (of course!)

    • This beach house was so comfortable and offered a truly relaxing get away! The apartment was clean,cheerful and airy. The location was truly beautiful. We were only steps away to the beach! The hammock by the palm trees was heavenly. We loved barbecuing in the backyard, by the ocean. We loved hearing the oceans waves just outside my window and there was always a great breeze. There is a much to do in the area, snorkeling, horseback riding,swimming,surfing, hiking and great restaurants to choose from. The owners were on hand to be sure we were happy, which we were and they couldn't have been nicer to work with. Tres Palmas is a lovely, non commercialized and federally protected beach which will always be there for people to enjoy. I highly recommend this site.

    • R-House is a place one wouldn't want to tell the world about. It's just that good - a little gem right at the beach. We had everything we could have possibly asked for accommodation-wise and beach-wise. The owners were super friendly and non-intrusive. Everything was perfect. Thank you :D

    • My husband and I stayed at Ali and Leon's home from Feb.13-Feb16. Everything was as promised on the website, only the view from the front porch/lawn/bedrooms was even better. We loved both seeing and hearing the ocean; sleeping at night in the comfortable king bed I would awake momentarily to hear the surf and be lulled back to sleep. For those who snorkle, the elkhorn coral in these waters just off the beach near the front of the house is truly rare and magnificent! We love to cook and with a well stocked grocery store, the Econo, only a few minutes away, we prepared all our meals at the apartment. Ali even squeezed a pitcher full of the best fresh orange juice for us. Stay here and relax and enjoy! Lucinda

    • Simply one of the greatest weeks of our lives. My girlfriend and I were in need of a vacation and found the "R" house through friends of Ali and Leon's. They are simply the best couple you will EVER meet and make you feel so welcome in their rental property. Their dog, Snicker Doodle is worthy of the trip in itself. She is simply one of the best "beach buddies" anyone could ever have. She came snorkeling with us several times. We will be back, no doubt.

    • My girlfriend and I recently had the pleasure of visiting Rincon for the first time. It was paradise!!! There were so many incredible things that made it special - the weather, the beach, the crystal clear water, THE REEF, the surf, the people, the restaurants, etc.) - but above all what made our vacation so special was staying at Ali & Leon's house. They could not have been more accommodating and warm. They are the sweetest couple... with an even sweeter dog, SNICKERS! Aside from having a great place to stay with all of the amenities you could ask for (and being LITERALLY steps away from a pristine beach and coral reef!) they were so dialed in to the community. They knew exactly where to go for everything and seemed to know all of the people in town too! There are plenty of great places to go on vacation, but we will always hold a special place in our hearts for Rincon... Mostly due to Ali & Leon's hospitality! We are already planning our next visit back and will never stay anywhere but Ali & Leon's house. Feel free to call us for a recommendation if you want to hear the passion in our voices. Sincerely, Andrew & Laura
