You will notice while you are reviewing this description, that this home is not your typical vacation rental! It was our family home for many years and remains so two to three months of the year.
Our home is located deep within the Palmas del Mar resort in its safest, securiest and most sought after areas ... just steps away from the beautiful Caribbean Sea and one of Palmas del Mar's most beautiful beaches and coves! This location and surroundings will become the focal point of your family's Caribbean vacation! Your vacation experience will be supplemented by the offerings of the Palmas del Mar Resort community - golf, tennis, horseback riding, and dining.
When we are staying at the home, our kids spend hours exploring the rock outcroppings and "rock holes" along the beaches and coves discovering the life and wonder they hold. As a couple we always make time for the walks along the beaches late in the afternoon or early morning, with or without kids, beachcombing, and discovering what the last tide has washed up or exposed - occasionally finding nesting loggerhead and green sea turtles or their tracks.
When exploring the beaches by myself, I always carry a spinning rod or fly rod with a yellow or white buck tail or fly, and have caught a large variety of fish (Tarpon to African Pompano) from the sandy shore or rocks. Snorkeling can only be described as an incredible experience! On each side of the beach and cove shown in the attached photo, you will find reefs, crevices, caves and caverns - all with a wide diversity and abundance of life and colours. In this description we inadvertently interchange the words villa and beach house to describe the home - this due to its proximity to the Caribbean Sea and the lifestyle it has blessed us with!
Our home is located in the Palmas del Mar Resort on the southeastern coast of Puerto Rico. It is located in the exclusive Surfside/Shell Castle Residential community of the resort. As stated previously, the villa is located within close proximity (walking distance) of several quiet and pristine coves and beaches, and trails to explore... no need to load a car or golf cart just exit the yard! The property has a wonderful balance of interior living space and landscaped grounds for you to enjoy and experience - truly a Caribbean treasure!

Relax after a long day at the beach with a refeshing cool dip in the pool with the family, or perhaps a quiet invigorating late-night moonlit swim under the stars.
