  From day one, the owner kept in communication assuring that everything was coordinated and ready for our arrival. The information provided was accurate. The family enjoyed the home and surrounding areas and can attest that Guavate and Cayey are areas to indeed visit; especially if you are wanting to enjoy the island food and music. We visited El Yunque (Rain Forrest), the Bacardi (town of Catano), La Guancha and La Seralles (in Ponce), Boqueron (Beach), etc. Want to taste one of the best coconut and diverse of tasty tropical ice creams--visit Rex Cream in the town of Cayey.

  We needed 2 added days after the end of a timeshare stay in Humacao. This mountain house in the 'real' Puerto Rico was a nice balance to our coastal gated community week. The owner graciously accommodated our short-term stay request. The property manager, who met our car and guided us to the house was knowledgeable and entertaining. The house is roomy and has nice views of the mountains, valley and Cayey. Cooking utensils are sparse but we got along fine. Sat. tv was a welcome change from the dubious picture quality in Humacao. The dramatic forested, steep road up doesn't deter everyone -- there is a fair bit of traffic noise from the roadway at property's edge. This may have been especially notable to us as we were there on a weekend, plus at home we are in a rural area. The upside of this is that there was a swingin' joint about 1/2 mile down the road that had a large open-air roofed dance hall, cafeteria line with local specialties, and was choked with locals partying. Our short stay was a good way to end our Thanksgiving week getaway to Isla de Encanta.

  Recommended for: Families with teenagers, age 55+, sightseeing, adventure seekers.

  This was our 4th visit to the Island of Enchantment, and, as always, we were not disappointed. This is a roomy house in a great, central location, with a beautiful view. It provided easy access to San Juan, Ponce, Cabo Rojo, Fajardo, Aibonita, and Barranquitas. We were comfortable, although cleanliness was not a strong feature. We did our own scrubbing and washing, especially in the kitchen and bathrooms. The oven and coffee maker did not work, and the refrigerator and toaster oven needed some major cleaning; but, all in all, the house was charming and typically Puerto Rican. There is no A/C, so the late afternoons were a bit stifling. By nightfall, however, with the big fans running, the temperature was very cool. It was also very nice to have a washer and dryer on site to keep up with laundry. The property manager was very helpful, and the owner was very accommodating. We handled the arrangements through email and phone and were quite satisfied with the transaction. If you want to experience Puerto Rico like a native, this is the house to rent!

  Recommended for: Age 55+, sightseeing, romantic getaway, adventure seekers.

  Upon booking our stay, Linda (owner) contacted me by phone and was very helpful. We talked on the phone several times and she gave us excellent suggestions on what to do during our stay. She was always available and always helpful. The house is only 45 minutes from San Juan and centrally located for many great day trips. Upon return from our day trips, the home was comfortable and had excellent views of the mountains. Of course our favorite was the lechoneras on Sunday (I am craving some of that delicious pork as I type this). For the price, this is the best deal in Puerto Rico. Thank you Linda for opening your home for us - we had a GREAT vacation!

  Owner response: Thank you Antonio. I am very happy that all went well and we were able to be of some help. It is our pleaure to do all we can for are travelers. Again, thank you and God Bless..Linda

  The property was spacious and safe. Plenty of room for the whole family with a parking space. The gates lock up at night--as is the tradition in PR.The best part was waking up to the mountain air, picking up some fresh bread from up the street and eating breakfast next to a spectacular mountain view. I'v e been to Puerto Rico many times and have stayed in hotels where I enjoyed the vacation tremendously, but this was the first time that I stayed at a vacation house, where we got a taste of local life. The vacation was great. Other than the the dogs barking at times, the area was peaceful. On Saturdays we walked down the street to enjoy the festivities of the 'lechoneras' where we partied for hours. That was really nice. Had a great time and plan on booking the house again. We definitely would go back.

  Owner response: WoW!! It really seemed as if you really had a great time. I am so happy to hear that the home and the area made you feel so at peace. I love it up there for the same reason. Thank you so much and I hope to hear from you again. God Bless

  This property will not disappoint. We are a family with kids and enjoyed our stay very much. The owner Linda is great to work with and so is her property manager. The place is clean and well maintained. It is gated and feels safe. The lechoneras being right around the corner is a bonus! One can find souveniers at decent prices, lunch, and music on the weekends. Everything in this listing is accurate. We definitely recommend this property and will be back to stay in the near future.
