Oceanfront Condo on Beautiful Condado Beach in San Juan

As an alternative to a simple hotel room, this condo offers an entirely different vacation experience. It will be like having your own private home, directly on a lovely Caribbean beach. Imagine your own private balcony that overlooks a turquoise ocean, with a beautiful coral sand beach directly below you. This is not just a pretty view. You are ON the Beach! The unobstructed 180 degree view is breathtaking. The sliding doors in the living room open completely to your private balcony, so the beach becomes part of your living area. The living room and dining area are spacious, and provide lots of room for entertaining, or just relaxing. The living room sofa is a queen sized futon and opens into a queen sized bed, so the condo can accommodate 4 adults. The kitchen is a separate room Instead of going 'out' to eat for every meal, you can cook 'in' if you prefer, as you have a complete kitchen, with everything you need to prepare gourmet meals. The bedroom is a separate room as well with a large walk-in closet, and bathroom attached. The bedroom has a large sliding picture window that faces the ocean, so at night, with the window open, you'll feel like you are lying on the beach, and the sound of the waves will lull you to sleep. The bed is Queen sized with an extra thick mattress. There is a Pack 'N Play available for younger children. The condo comes furnished with all linens, towels, kitchen equipment, stereo, CD player, flat screen cable TV, VCR/DVD, free Wi-Fi Wireless Cable, Ipod/Iphone plug in, and many other amenities. The condo is fully AirConditioned. All you need to bring are your clothing and music.
