Accommodations: Apartment, 1 Bedroom + Convertible bed(s), 1 Bath (Sleeps 4)
Charming one bedroom, one bathroom furnished ground floor apartment in historic Old San Juan, located in the residence of the late Master Puerto Rican painter Alfonso Arana.
This beautiful building of restored Spanish Colonial architecture is characterized by thick walls and brick-stone floors; all doors of the apartment open to a private, lush, interior garden. With ceiling fans throughout, this lovely apartment has an airy, tropical feel.
This is an “L” shaped, open floor plan apartment with a fully functioning kitchen. The bedroom has a double bed, and is separated by an archway from the living room, which can easily be used as a second bedroom. This setting is ideal for individuals, couples, and small families.
Our apartment is on calle San José, the entryway of which is a gallery space of local artists. Around the corner you will find the Cathedral and the City Hall. It is one block from the main square Plaza de Armas, where you can find a supermarket and open air cafés, wonderful restaurants and bakeries. We are very near the 16th century fortress El Morro and the Escambron Beach.

Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 1982
This is my brother Luis Alfonso and me (Rosa) in our home in Puerto Rico.
Why the Owner Chose San Juan
This is our family home. It is a beautiful building with the patio on the ground floor and beautiful terraces upstairs. Our father, the late painter Alfonso Arana, used to call it "his Palace".... We decided to open our house for guests, and furnished the downstairs apartment for vacation rentals. My brother lives on the 2nd floor of the house, while my sister Isabel and I reside in Massachusetts. We love our Old San Juan home and hope you enjoy your stay there.
