Stunning Ocean View Condo, Internet, Pool, Beach...
Year Purchased: 2008
Why the Owner Chose Aguadilla
Life doesn’t get any better than this! Our sub-penthouse overlooks our favorite beach on the island, Crash Boat Beach, which is just a 3 min. drive from the condo. Jerry always dreamt of having a place in Aguadilla with an ocean view from where he could watch the sun set into the ocean at the end of each day. He (and you too) can do this now from the privacy of our sub-penthouse balcony.
You can fly into the Raphael Hernandez International Airport (BQN) and in less than 10 minutes you are in “your dream” home away from home. The condo is perfectly situated to explore the northwest and western part of the island. Some of the best beaches on the island are in Aguadilla and its surrounding area. The area is very popular for scuba diving, snorkeling and surfing although other water sports abound.
We are pretty familiar with the area and welcome the opportunity to help you plan your stay. In the condo you will find, in addition to tourist magazines, detailed information of area attractions, things to do, places to eat, and more.
The Unique Benefits at this Condo
The ocean view from the condo balcony is stunning, every sunset is a captivating sight, the weather’s divine all year round, and the local beaches are better than ever. The view of the whales migrating west during the winter months is definitely a must see.
Awarded the 2008 Best Resort-type Living Project in Puerto Rico, Puerta del Mar (Door to the Sea) is an oasis of privacy and lush tropical splendor.
You will love the hospitality we provide our guests and the well appointed amenities you will find in the condo. The master suite with its king size bed is an oasis of privacy unto itself. For your convenience we provide beach essentials - towels, cooler, chairs, and more. Our fully equipped kitchen has all the modern conveniences to make meal preparation a pleasure if you choose to cook. The Infinity pool and its surrounding amenities offer all you need to enjoy hours of comfort and relaxation under the sun or shade.

Owner's Map of Aguadilla
My husband and I grew up in Aguadilla. Our love of Crash Boat Beach brings us back every year. Although, we have family and friends in Aguadilla, Jerry always wanted a place in Puerto Rico that he could call our “home away from home.” When Jerry learned about Puerta del Mar he jumped at the opportunity to purchase a condo with a view of the ocean. We have found it to be the perfect place for family vacations as well as a quiet, relaxing and fun getaway for couples or a group of friends. Our 2 boys absolutely love it there. We have lived in Maryland for 18 years and have vacationed in Aguadilla every year except for one. What was once the playground of our youth is now “a dream” come true and we are so glad that we could share it with you! Liz and Jerry, Maryland

We spent about 5 days at the condo in late August. The accommodations were fabulous! Everything we needed, from beach towels to blenders to brownie pans, were provided. Our hosts were wonderful about check-in -- our connecting flight was cancelled so we had to call late at night to change our arrival. The grounds and pool are gorgeous. We would absolutely stay again and recommend it to friends and family. Thank you!

My husband, myself and two young boys stayed @ this unit and it was by far the best Condo we've stayed in. The place was clean, fully furnished, fully equiped kitchen, they provided beach/bath towels and so much more. We can't wait to go back next year and book with this unit again. The locatoin was the most scenic view from our balcony. It was great to wake up every morning to the view of Crash Boat Beach and be surrounded by such a calm atmosphere. Everything about the condo was to our liking and I would totallly rate this place as a 5 STAR place to stay. The local grocery store and Walgreens were near by, so if you needed anything last minute, it was 2 miles away. I hope more people have the fortunate opportunity, to stay here and be part of something so great, Staying in Aguadilla (was our favorite part of Puerto Rico). I promise you, you WON'T be disappointed. We fully intend on staying here next year for 2012. Thanks again to the owners of this unit and for providing us such a wonderful place to stay.
Owner response:Thank you so much for sharing how much you and your family enjoyed your stay. We are glad to learn that the condo was to your liking and appreciate the 5 Star rating. It was a true pleasure to have you as our guests. We, especially my parents, look forward to your next visit. Our best to you, Liz & Jerry

I was referred this place by a friend and what a surprise! I was there for a month for work but left feeling like I had finished a long vacation (the kind you don't want to go back to work from) except I WAS at work! It's because this location was so nice. I'm grateful the Conty's have chosen to share their hideaway with the rest of us. It was so nice, I flew my wife and son in for Thanksgiving. With a small child you need a place that feels like your own house to be comfortable and this place worked perfect. After work we would head to Crashboat Beach and play in the waves. It made a lasting impression on our 20 mo. old son, he would wake up in the morning saying "beach...beach" most days. We hiked the caves, went to the rain forrest and did plenty of beach too. Thanks for such a great stay! -Doug, Cindy & Dylan

My family and I were extremely fortunate of staying at this location this Summer from July 15th through the 24th, and Words can not describe the extreme contentment. The Condo is located in Aguadilla PR, surrounded by all activities, beaches and excellent restaurants. The Condo is very well maintained by Mr. & Mrs. Andujar who aimed to please us from our very first contact. They made my family and I feel like part of the family. The condo is immaculate, with all advance equipment. It is our home a way from home.. The view from the balcony, Oh My God, is breathtaking you can over look the infinity pool and crash boat beach. My family and I visit PR at least 3 times a year and have stayed at many 5 star hotels ranging from El San Juan Hotel and Casino , Marriott to El Conquistador and in my book this condo is right up there with them.. If you are looking for a place to stay in Puerto Rico, This is the ideal spot, Just as long as it doesn't interfere with our next trip in July 2011.... :)

We spent part of our deployment R&R time at the condo and we had a wonderful time. We were able to relax, rest and enjoy the wonderful view. The condo is even more beautiful than the pictures can tell and is well appointed. Everything we can think of was available to us to include games, movies, beach toys and towels. We enjoyed our time at the beach (which is one of my favorites on the island) and the pool. In my opinion we had one of the best condo's in the complex location-wise as we had a clear view of the bay and a front view to the pool (great if you want to keep an eye on your kids). We are already planning our end of tour vacation and we can't wait to return. Thank you so very much!

I highly recommend this condo especially if you have young children. There were 6 people in our party and we were very comfortable. The condo is beautiful and nicely decorated. There are alot of places to eat around or you can cook in the very spacious well equipped kitchen. The pool was fabulous and the beach was so close by. It was truly a very relaxing vacation. We also enjoyed the sites around town. There is very good information provided in the condo, maps and things to do in P.R. Everything you need is provided from broad games to movies and we were so surprised to find snorkel masks and finns. Thank you Liz and Jerry for making our vacation stay wonderful !!! We hope to return next year.

Conty Family,The condo’s spectacular view, accommodation, and hospitality made our stay an unforgettable one. You have an awesome family vacation home. There isn’t one thing you guys didn’t think of; absolutely beautiful and comfortable furniture, equipped with every possible item and best of all clear/organized guides of the places to visit and eat. We have visited other places (rental condos) around the island but our experience here is unbeatable. We had a magnificent time sitting in the balcony, relaxing, and enjoying the amazing view was our favorite spot. Thank you for sharing this piece of paradise with us. We’ll be looking forward to be able to rent again. Mrs. Aida and Mr. Gilberto,Thank you for the warming welcome. Your hospitality and kindness towards your guest – fabulous. We hope to see you again soon. Many blessing to you all!Colon and Collazo Family, Cayey, Puerto Rico

Dear, Mr. & Mrs. Conty we are very grateful for your hospitality and the great experiences we have shared in what we now call our home away from home... I would like to let you know that our 2nd stay was just as pleasant as our first stay... thanks to the great amenities and the great attention to details that your condo offers... Vacationing or getting away in our own city, works great for us...once we enter the condo complex we feel we are in a different location, the privacy and the view, along with the ambiance come together making it a restful getaway for us without having to drive for hours to a hotel resort...we look forward to our next stay and thank you for this opportunity.

Liz, your attention to detail and the suggestions of places to see, things to do, and area dining were extremely helpful. Our family thanks you for your hospitality and kindness throughout our visit to Puerto Rico. We had a great family vacation. Best wishes to your families.
