Beachfront Wyndham Rio Mar Resort ~ Specials Mar18-21 Apr 6-12
Year Purchased: 2005
Why the Owner Chose Rio Grande
I purchase this property because we fell in love the second we opened the door. We went to see the villa because of its excellent location, not only beachfront, but inside the premises of a great resort, with great activities for everyone in the family; but once the villa entrance door opened, we felt we were right on the beach. The view from the villa is amazing. You not only see the beach, you see the grains of sand, feel the sea breeze and hear the surf. The villa is not in the top of a building, it is on the beach, only 10 feet above it. The experience is amazing. I can be hours at a time reading in my private balcony, with a cup of coffee or drink and love the feeling of being surrounded by beautiful gardens and the sea. Breakfast, lunch and dinners at the balcony are priceless. You are really dining on the beach with all the comforts of a home. The pictures do not do justice to the closeness of the beach.
We choose our villa in particular vs. other units in the building, because of this unique feeling that you are on the beach. The building gardens are surreal; you are in the middle of a forest with waves crashing just in front of you. We also choose our unit vs. others in the building because it is under the palm trees, and therefore it is one of the very few units with complete unobstructed views of the ocean. We don't have to worry about whether the palm trees have been trimmed or not, we always have perfect views!
Also, we choose this unit because it was the largest 1 bedroom model in the building (only 1 per floor of this size). It is very, very spacious as it has 1,100 sq. ft. and our living room is well larger than all the 2 bedroom models. You won't feel crowded here at all. We waited a long time for the right unit in this building to become available for sale and when it did we did not think about it twice. It did have a higher cost that others, but it was well worth it.
The Unique Benefits at this Villa
Be sure to read all the 70+ feedback comments we have in our guestbook. We not only love our villa, all our guests do. Many say it is the best place that they have ever stayed in their lives.
PS. We receive calls very often of guests that are desperately looking for a place to stay, because they rent a beachfront villa and the owner fails to mention that the palm trees have grown and the villa no longer has an ocean view, so beware of pictures of oddly trimmed palms trees, they only look that way once every 2-3 years. All this is far too common for me and I get very frustrated. If you are looking for a larger size villa or if our villa is not available for rent, or not what you are looking for, email me I will be glad to provide referrals of whom to contact to rent a villa in top shape and great views like ours.

The condo is lovely. The description and pictures extremely accurate. Condo is very clean, private and well maintained. The resort is beautiful and well maintained also. Beatrice was very helpful with her list of things to do and restaurants. Le Estacion was our favorite restaurant. We ate there 3 nights in a row. Very very good and reasonable. I would definitely recommend this condo.
Recommended for:Romantic getaway, sightseeing, adventure seekers, girls getaway, age 55+, families with young children.

I would highly recommend this condo. It is clean and very private. The best part is the view from the patio and bedroom look right out to the ocean. The owner is professional and easy to work with. I would definitely recommend renting a car when staying at the villa to be able to go to local restaurants and attractions. Our favorite restaurant was La Estacion in Fajardo, the food was amazing and reasonably priced.

This location could not be better. We stayed here for spring break - two adults and two children (12 and 8) - and had an amazing time. We went to the rainforest 3 times to hike, swim in the waterfalls and explore (10 minutes away). Check out the Juan Diego trail - fantastic and not crowded. We also went to many of the restaurants that Beatrice recommended. King's Seafood, Lolita's, El Jefe's shack and La Parilla - all were fantastic and a much better deal than the resort. I would highly recommend this rental - it was perfect.

We stayed here on a trip to celebrate my husband's birthday with our two teenage kids and could NOT have been more delighted with it! The surrounding landscaped grounds are beautiful and peaceful, the villa very comfortable and nicely decorated. Some people might love all the amenities at the busier, more typically touristy main hotel/casino next door but we had so much fun going to great nearby places like Luquillo, kayaking in Fajardo, exploring Old San Juan we only felt the need to use the villa as a relaxed home base and barely set foot in the hotel. It's well maintained and equipped, everything felt very clean and thoughtfully laid out, but with homey rental touches like a closet full of beach toys and sun block. The concierge was helpful and friendly, the villa's own pool and beach are gorgeous, and at times we virtually had it all to ourselves! We chose not to have maid service but to make ourselves at home with the full kitchen, w/d... even the china was nice, and I already miss my cup of PR coffee out on the little terrace every morning with my laptop, wifi, and ocean view :). Thanks for a perfect stay!

Our family of 4 thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the villa. The location was perfect--right near the rainforest, horseback riding, loquillo kiosks. The setting was beautiful. We practically had the beach and pool to ourselves! We enjoyed the close proximity to the restaurants and tiki bar at the Wyndham. We also loved the local restaurants that Beatrice recommended. We will return!

We stayed at Beatrice's condo for a week in February and had a wonderful, relaxing stay. We brought our 2-year old son, and he really enjoyed all the toys in the closet as well as the baby pool right outside our door. Surprisingly, there were only a few other families staying at the villas so a lot of the time we had the entire pool area to ourselves. I can't recommend this unit highly enough and we will definitely be back!! Oh, and I was so impressed that Beatrice returned all my emails within 5 minutes!

My wife and I spent a week in early feb. at your condo and it was a wonderfully relaxing vacation. your condo is as advertised-- well maintained, comfortable, and as close to the water as you can get without getting wet! our weather was perfect which added to the enjoyment even tho we had to cut our visit short by one day to avoid a nyc snowstorm. hope to be back to visit soon.

My wife and I with our two kids (3yrs and 6 months) had a wonderful stay from Jan 16 -21 2010. The villa and its furnishings are as described on the website and well maintained. We chose Beatrice's villa since we were looking for beachfront accomodation that had a full kitchen (for the infant) and with the dining options and services (pool and beach) of your typical resort. We also tried a couple of the restaurants outside the resort and were impressed by Parilla and the Ceviche Hut (Luquillo kiosks).

We just returned from our honeymoon in PR, and it was exactly as advertised. Beatrice's villa is clean, primely-located, ocean front/view and the facilities are all of the above as well. Beatrice had some fantastic recommendations for local dining and I can summarize them as follows: Authentic Local Food 1. King's Seafood 2. La Parilla (Kiosk) View/Bar 1a. Wyndham Beach Bar 1b. Richie's Cafe (2 minute drive or shuttle) 1c. La Conquistador Resort (25 minute drive, amazing views) About the Wyndham There are a few restaurants: Italian, Japanese, "Local". I say "Local" because it doesn't provide the good local cuisine that you can get at any of the restaurants recommended by Beatrice. The pools and facilities are clean, much the same as the Ocean Villa facilities. Overall, I would certainly recommend Beatrice's villa, and if we end up returning to PR in the near future, would request Beatrice's Villa again.

Beatrice, we enjoyed our first visit to Puero Rico, very much. I want to thank you for the use of your beautiful villa. The villa was furnished beautifully, and was extremely clean. The view was magnificent! We certainly enjoyed the terrace . . . it was great. It was there we enjoyed most of our meals. We made ourselves go out a few times to experience the authentic Puerto Rican dishes of the island. Thank you for the suggestions on where to dine, and places to visit. Not only was this our first visit to your island, it was the first time we have booked accomodations using VRBO, and we really appreciate your honesty and professionalism. We highly recommend renting from Ms. Beatrice.
