Do you want a romantic week in the tropics and a family vacation? Then this is the house rental for you. Stretch out on the wicker couch and watch the golfers from the screened-in back patio. Go through the backyard gate and play a round yourself! Relax over dinner and a magnificent ocean sunset, while the kids watch a movie in the family room.
Invite your friends or family over and have a real Puerto Rican meal. The kitchen is fully-equipped - from china dinner plates and crystal stemware to a bread machine and microwave. The ceramic stove top and electric oven make meal preparation easy. The cherry dining room table pulls out to seat twelve persons.
When you get back from horseback riding on the beach at Tropical Trail Rides, step outside when you hear the ice cream man's music and get your cool treats right from the truck.
The kids will love the twin-sized bunk beds in the front bedroom, with their own bath. You'll enjoy the quiet and privacy of the luxurious master suite. The newly re-decorated safari-style second bedroom is also becoming a fast favorite of couples renting the house. The Toyo piano and the board games are there for you to play and enjoy with your loved ones.
There are beach shoes, life jackets, flippers, buckets, shovels, fishing nets, boogie boards, and beach sports equipment in the white cupboards on the patio, not to mention a volleyball net, Frisbees, and badminton set.
There is a complete guide to all of the attractions in the area on the secretary-desk in the living room. It includes detailed maps, information on hiking trails, and traveling tips. Some favorite places in the area include:

We lived in Puerto Rico for almost three years, and I go there often now. Please feel free to call me at any time, for questions you might have in planning your trip. I also speak Spanish fluently, so I can translate for anyone who may not speak English (or Spanish) as well as you would like. I would love to help you enjoy your time in Puerto Rico, no matter where you choose to stay, so please call me. |
