What a nice place to just relax... high at this 22rd floor penthouse, corner apartment just feet from one of the most recognized beaches in the world. This three-building gated complex has on-site pool, tennis, and basketball courts, and a large community area.Security surveillance has been implemented for your well being.

During the months of rental, many folks from the states make this area their winter shelters, and they do enjoy it.

The apartment is very well kept, tastefully decorated in a modern, fresh, and eclectic way, starting with marble floors!!.There is one bedroom with a KING size bed and there is another bedroom with two BUNK beds (ideal for 4 kids) but that sleeps only two adults. There are lots of windows, so watch for your hats! as it is very windy and fresh inside, no mugginess or sticky humidity... just a very cozy, comfortable place to enjoy some quietness, but at the same time all the amenities of being at home. Many times during summer, while at the balcony relaxing you will see seagulls flying so close to you that you can almost touch them. It is because of all the condos in the area this is the closest to the beach of them all. No question about it!! The L-shaped balcony offers the best view of all the apartments in the area, completely non-obstructive, because contrary to 90% of the other units it is a CORNER unit and instead of looking only from the side, ours looks directly to the beach from ANY angle you choose.

The apartment has ALL the amenities you have at home for a relaxing stay. It has been totally redecorated, including brand new split air conditioning units, very silent and efficient. The following are ALL brand new: washer,dryer, refrigerator, flat LCD TV, DVD player, digital cable TV, FREE broadband internet!! 24hours 7 days a week, leather sofa, wooden bunk beds, beach chairs, sun umbrella, new wood doors, closets. All cooking and silverware are included and much much more.

The view is just marvelous, and non-obstructive. You will be just a few minutes from the famous El Yunque rain forest, and just a few minutes from the famous El Conquistador Hotel and casino or the Wyndham Rio Mar Hotel and Casino, and the all new Trump International (all with championship golf courses). Puerto Rico has so much to offer.. Please make sure you plan well ahead before your arrival and you will enjoy it much more.

The Luquillo and Fajardo area has lots of activities to spend your days, including four marinas. Many renters just stay in the area their whole vacation, they just love it here!! Just book a one-day fishing trip. You can get on of the huge Blue Marlins that bring sportsmen to this area every year. Or... take a relaxing Catamaran boat ride to Cayo Icacos (you will not believe the transparent waters).

The Old San Juan area is just 30-40 minutes away and full of sites, museums, and a beautiful Old colonial Spanish traditional architecture and folklore, but of course lots of excellent restaurants, and places to socialize and dance to the Caribbean tunes.

My wife and I and our two adult children stayed in Vanessa's penthouse apartment for 6 nights, and could have stayed much longer. It was very well furnished, well taken care of, and absolutely beautiful. While the weather was hot, we opened our windows and the wind kept the apartment cool. The view and the water were just like the pictures. Vanessa was very responsive to questions, and returned our security deposit promptly. This is a great bargain. My only suggestion: give better directions. Turn left from Route 3 just past kilometer 36, then take first left and first right into Playa Azul, Tower 3.

What a great location!

My husband and I rented Vanessa's Penthouse for 10 days. The views are spectacular. You can enjoy the ocean view and the rainforest at the same time. Open the windows and doors to experience the cross ventation, it really keeps the condo cool and comfortable. The penthouse is nicely equipped and decorated. We enjoyed Puerto Rico with day trips to Old San Juan, Ponce, Torro Verde for ziplining (highly recommend them), hiking at El Yunque Rainforest, & kayaking bio-bay. Be sure to visit the Luqillo famous kiosks which are just minutes from the penthouse. Vanessa is very helpful and responds quickly to emails. We would definately recommend Vanessa's Penthouse. Enjoy!

We spent a glorious 8 days in Vanessa's condo in August, it was delightful! We especially enjoyed the balcony/patio that wraps around 2 sides of the condo, allowing panoramic views of the ocean, beach, and mountains. We loved enjoying meals on the balcony dining table. The pictures very accurately show the amenities and furnishings. The photos are not able to depict the soothing breezes that flow through the condo constantly. Open as many widows and doors as you like to enjoy! The condo is very clean and comfortable. Enjoy leisure times or action exploring, it is all available near the condo. We recommend it highly!

My wife, daughter (9 yo), and I enjoyed our stay at the apartment although the location provided us with so many opportunities that we failed to make use of all of the amenities that the complex offered. The apartment was well maintained and had the necessary amenities to allow lots of fun on the beach (boogie boards, sand castle stuff, snorkeling stuff, etc). There was also tennis equipment, basketballs, and other outdoor equipment. We would definitely recommend the apartment. As for things to do near the apartment, we enjoyed both the Playa Azul and Luquillo beaches. My daughter especially liked the Luquillo beach because it was so placid. We hiked in the El Yunque Rain Forest on a couple of days (showered in La Mina Falls) and toured old San Juan on another day. We had two all day snorkeling excursions. One on the Erin Go Bragh III and another on the East Island Excursions power catamaran (Culebrita Adventure package). Both outings were extremely enjoyable. On the last night of our stay we we did the Bioluminescent Bay tour offered by East Island Excursions. Swimming in the bay with little lights dancing across our bodies was almost surreal. We highly recommend it.

Owner response:Thank you!!

Great place to stay!

Date of Stay: 08/14/10 Review Submitted: 09/20/10

My husband and three sons (ages 17, 20 and 22) stayed here for a week in August, 2010. It was excellent!! The place looked as good as the pictures show it to be. It was clean, tidy and comfortable. The closets were stocked with beach chairs, tennis balls/rackets, snorkeling equipment, etc. The view of the ocean was priceless. My husband and I spent many hours looking over the balcony at the blue water below. Vanessa was kind, considerate and easy to work with. So glad we chose to stay here. My boys are dreaming of the next vacation we take here :) It was a great location to explore the surrounding areas from ... from the beaches to the rainforest and more. The famous Kiosks are close by and are a fun place to eat. We tried a few and found Kiosk #21 Ay Bonito is the best.

Eight Thumbs Up!

Date of Stay: 03/14/10 Review Submitted: 03/24/10

Just returned from our first visit to Puerto rico and Luquillo for Spring Break from Chicago. My husband, two teenagers, and myself. Everything Vanessa said about her condo is true! From the million dollar view, to a well stocked kitchen, the whole crew gives it thumbs up! Location was great. We hiked the rain forest several times, booked a snorkel trip, kayaked the luminescent bay, visited Old San Juan, even rented jet skis and hit a casino! All were close by. Vanessa suggests several restaurants that we enjoyed, and we found several on our own ...so many choices! The beach is steps away and the water clear and comfortable! We enjoyed sunshine and great temps every day! Can you tell we had fun!? Consider yourself lucky for the opportunity to enjoy this lovely place! Deb~ March 2010

We rented this penthouse in November 2009. Appartment is very nice, clean, fully equipped and well kept. The view is amazing! The balcony is so big it could fit our family of three with no problem at all. I found it very relaxing to lay in the lounge chair on the balcony later in the evening and glaze at the stars.The beach next to appartment complex is very nice too and if you wish for a quieter water, the famous Luquillo beach is just 5 minutes away. We had a great time and we definetely recommend this property, and Vanessa and Victor are both great to deal with!

We arrived in Luquillo on April 25th for our honeymoon and had a delightful time. Everything we could have ever wanted was in the apartment. The breeze was beautiful and we never once needed to utilize the air conditioning. Finding little 'boogie' boards in the bedroom closet was a pleasant surprise - we spent a lot of time doing our version of surfing while there. We did some scuba diving in Fajardo just a little ways down the road and also found a cute little bakery nearby where we had breakfast sandwiches. The pool was great! Also, the Brass Cactus was a nice place and we ate there a few times. We loved our stay in the penthouse and wish we could have stayed longer.

We had a wonderful stay at this property. We were there in May 2009 for our honeymoon and are already trying to plan a return visit! Vanessa was very easy to contact and made the entire reservation process simple. The view from the balcony is amazing, and the breeze when you open up the windows and doors keeps things very comfortable. The beach was fantastic - not too crowded and very clean. We really appreciated the beach towels, chairs, and cooler that were there. The only thing I wish we had known beforehand is that the oven is not a true oven, but a large stove-top unit. Aside from that, the kitchen was well-equipped, and we made use of it. Overall - a fantastic place to stay!

The view is breathtaking and the condo was fully equipped and very clean. Luquillo was a very pleasant surprise with of course, a world-class beach, great local restaurants, close to San Juan, the rain forest, golf etc...we are definitely going back!!!! This is a no-brainer.
