Fantastic property and great location. Perfect for a quiet getaway after exploring Puerto Rico. The host was great and very welcoming. And even helped with a Valentine’s Day surprise for my wife upon arrival. We will definitely return!

Beautiful house in a beautiful location. House had everything we needed, such as cooking utensils to cook at home, beach chairs and towels for the beach, and great entertainment options. Can't say enough how great this house and location is. We had 8 total people, two families of four and the layout and bedroom situation worked out great.

We’ve rented several houses through VRBO throughout the years, and this house was BY FAR the best we’ve ever stayed in. The location felt remote, quiet, close to the beach, and perfect views. The house was spacious for the 8 people we had. The walk to the beach took 2 minutes and there were beach chairs, umbrella, and beach towels to use! The kitchen had everything we needed, including coffee filters!! The outside kitchen/grill was amazing and we used it daily! If you are looking for the best house in Puerto Rico-this is it!!! I cannot recommend this house enough-it was paradise!

Villa Playera was paradise. It was very comfortable with great amenities and the beach is right there. It's location was great for us. It was a very relaxing setting, and the drive to various attractions was always 40 - 60 minutes, which made for perfect nap time for the 4-year old. Absolutely perfect home for us for the week.

Great spot.

If you are looking for a peaceful getaway close to the beach, this is definitely the spot. The house is amazing and makes you just want to stay there and play ping pong and sit by the pool. It is very close to the beach and only 20 minutes from stores in Humacao.

THE BEST PLACE TO STAY

If you’re reading this review and are looking for a place to stay you won’t be disappointed with this place. This was the best place I’ve ever stayed at with my family. I don’t really ever right reviews but for this place I had to. The communication between are family and the host was more then excellent. The views were amazing the 1 minute private beach access to get there was super nice. We stayed there during a power outage on the island and the generator powered up the whole house, very convient. If this place is an option for you I would say stop looking and book it. I can’t promise you a great experience I can only tell you ours and our experience with this and vibes were perfect. If this place is available then next time we come back we would deff be booking it again.

Outstanding

The property made for a great home base for our large group. The pool, back yard, and ping pong were a hit when we weren't exploring the island.Each bedroom has AC so you will sleep comfortably. Other reviews mentioned noise from the highway. The house is in a gated community far enough away from the main road that we never heard any of the traffic.It's literally a 2 minute walk to the beach. Don't bother going to the park - there is a concrete path that goes right to the sand on the east end of the street. The surf keeps things churned up so don't plan on snorkeling there. Still nice for morning walks or hanging out between trips.Two large kitchens in open great rooms made for plenty of gathering space. The ice maker was very appreciated.We would definitely recommend staying here.

Satisfaction

The entire experience from the moment we found the property and inquired about it Emma made so much easier by responding as fast as accurately all of our questions. The space and all the amenities in the house made it even more satisfying. We had to reach out to her and sure enough she was prompt and of course accurate to address the issues.

Amazing stay

GORGEOUS property - we were home away from home and the pool at house is stunning and we got in it everyday. The owner is highly communicative and responded promptly to all messages and calls. some things to consider - 1. the property is a safe gate community about 1.5 hours from old San Juan, 30 minutes from Fajardo and closest grocery store/fast food is 20 minutes away. 2. The maps directions will get you to the neighborhood but you will need the owners to guide you to the gate and the exact property as that was not clearly identified. 3. Beach is 5 minuted walk that is uphill on the way back - use the gates by the kids park down the street for better beach access vs the gate behind the property - the beach is pretty rocky so take water shoes and during tide time it gets rough. We are not experienced swimmers so we pretty much didn't get in the water when the waves are rough. 4. The property is well equipped from the kitchen standpoint but had some basic items missing or in short supply like paper towels, toiletries etc. I reached out to the owner and she was nice enough to drop off some toiletries the next day. 5. Hot water is not automatic so please ask the owners on how to turn it on. Highly recommend this property and have already forward to many friends to visit.

Top 3 Favs of All-Time

We’ve travelled a lot of different places and stayed in a lot of different VRBOs. This place is absolutely one of our top 3! Seriously one of the most underrated properties on the site. The views are gorgeous. The beach is the tiniest walk from the house. The pool is amazing. We had two families with 6 kids ranging from 6 to 16. There was a ping pong tournament going around the clock. Every bedroom has a full bath. There is a half bath on the main level and another full bath outside by the pool. The kitchens made it super easy to prep meals. Both kitchens have just about any item you could want or need. Beds were comfy. The host, Emma (I believe that was her name), was superb! We didn’t have any problems at all but I did have several questions and she answered everything right away. 10/10 would absolutely stay again. Worst part of the experience was having to leave.

Incredible stay, gorgeous view!

We had an incredible stay! The house is beautiful with an incredible view. The pool was the perfect size for splashing around with children. The beautiful beach is just a five minute walk down the road and while we were there had very few people! While we were there the beach did have some waves which were fun for the adults but you have to be a little careful with the little ones. Our host was extremely responsive and helpful with any request we had. The house has 2 kitchens and is stocked with all the equipment you could need. Short drives around the area reveal more incredible views. We had small kids and did a short trip to a nearby nature reserve called Punta Tuna Wetlands nature reserve and we highly recommend it. It has a short walk and another beautiful, easily accessible, practically deserted beach. Overall our stay was perfect, with the pool, the beach, the views and an open and airy house there wasn’t much else to ask for!

GREAT EXPERIENCE FOR PR

First time being in Puerto Rico and fell in LOVE! Emma was such a great help and allowing us into her home was a blessing. From beginning to end she was there for us. Literally a phone call away to answer anything. The house is beautiful the views are breath taking and a great place to be when visiting the island. I will definitely be back and will love to rent the home again. Pool is amazing my boys loved every minute of it. I couldn't get them out. Beach is a quick walk from the house and is beautiful. My overall experience here was amazing and one to remember. Thank you Emma for making my first trip one to remember. Can't wait to come back!!! Worth EVERY PENNY!!!

About the host

Hosted by El Cocal Collection

Host profile image

We are El Cocal Collection, a family owned and managed group of homes inside the private community of El Cocal. Our family has been part of this place since the seventies, and welcoming guests here is something we truly enjoy. Each home carries years of memories, and sharing that warmth with others is what makes hosting so special to us.

We love creating stays that feel personal, relaxing, and easy, and we are always happy to help guests experience the peaceful beauty of El Cocal. Whether you are here to unwind by the beach or spend time with loved ones, we want you to feel right at home from the moment you arrive.

Why they chose this property

We chose this neighborhood because El Cocal has always been a special place for our family. It is a private and gated community surrounded by quiet streets, gentle ocean breezes, and a coastline that feels peaceful and untouched. Since the seventies, we have enjoyed mornings by the water, calm afternoons with the sound of the waves, and the sense of safety and privacy that defines this community.

What we enjoy most is the atmosphere. El Cocal is quiet, family oriented, and naturally beautiful. You can walk straight to the beach, enjoy open views without crowds, and feel a true connection to the ocean. It is the kind of neighborhood where everything slows down and you can simply relax.

This is why El Cocal has been home to our family for generations, and why we love sharing it with our guests.

What makes this property unique

What makes Villa Playera truly unique is the outdoor experience. The villa features a beautiful gazebo with a full outdoor kitchen and BBQ station, creating the perfect space for cooking, gathering, and enjoying time together just steps from the heated pool. The outdoor areas are designed to bring people together, whether you are preparing a meal, relaxing in the garden, or spending the day by the water.

The combination of ocean views, a peaceful gated community, and an outdoor setup created for comfort and connection makes Villa Playera stand out. It is a place where the outside feels just as inviting as the inside, and where every moment is shaped by the beauty of the surroundings.
