We had such an amazing experience!! It is a beautiful decorated house, very comfortable and with more items that you’ll ever need.Only issue is if you decide to rent a car, parking is not very accessible and you will need to park on the side streets. The streets can get very packed as that’s where the cars for those house park. The right side of the house is easier as the other side is very tight and has more house.Our hosts were more than accommodating, had some snacks for us, and were amazing! Absolutely recommend and if I return to San Juan, I will definitely stay there.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this charming San Juan property! From the moment we arrived, the hosts went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. They were incredibly responsive, provided excellent local recommendations, and truly made us feel welcomed and cared for throughout our entire visit.The house itself is absolutely adorable – beautifully decorated with thoughtful touches that made it feel like a home away from home. Everything was clean, comfortable, and exactly as pictured. The location couldn't be better! We were able to walk to so many amazing restaurants, cafes, and attractions. Being within walking distance of the hot spots meant we could easily explore the vibrant neighborhood without worrying about transportation. It was the perfect home base for our San Juan adventure.We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend this property to anyone visiting San Juan. Thank you for such a memorable experience!

5 Stars

We had a fantastic stay at this beautiful 3-bedroom home in San Juan! The house was spacious, clean, and exactly as described in the listing. Each bedroom was comfortable and well-appointed, and the common areas were perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring.Highly recommend this place for families or groups of 3 looking for something other than a high-rise stay or apartment in Puerto Rico.

Breather in Santurce

Amazing time we had in San Juan. Santurce was super fun and fun. Really close to a lot of places we visited (Calle Loiza, Old San Kuan, Condido, Isle Verde, Loiza). We rented a car so it was easy to get around. Carrie and Ryan and baby Nolan were great hosts even leaving us the kindest note and dulces. My personal favorite part was the outside shower. Their home was neat and clean., Everything was so great and perfect. Can’t wait to come back!

Perfect location, comfortable and well stocked

The house was very clean and comfortable. Having the privacy of a little patio out back was excellent for our group to visit and work. The house was set up like a home with even travel mugs and zip lock bags for use. There were also plenty of towels and even beach chairs for use. The owner left delicious coconut treats as a welcoming gesture and it was much appreciated. Overall it was an excellent experience and I will definitely stay again!

Good place to stay

Our stay in the home went well. There was an unexpected problem with the plumbing but the owners responded right away (their plumber was a great guy). The neighborhood is nice, with good coffee and ice cream shops walkable distances away. There was loud music in the evening but not late into the night. The house is so stocked as listed. I strongly recommend frequent use of the outdoor shower.

La casita Verde

My family & I stayed here it was a group of 5 . They had everything we needed . Sunscreen , towels , water . Gave us complimentary Jell-O shots they were amazing along with a six pack of beer . Everything was very clean . The two rooms towards the back were very hot no AC units in them but we bought fans for both rooms & it was fine . Parking was alittle difficult to find but we made it work . Would definitely recommend anyone to book here . Can’t wait to come back . Everything was very close to us . 10/10 experience.

Getting real in San Juan, PR

The perfect place to land for our adventurous, long weekend! The colorful green house is super tidy, well appointed and just as cheerful as advertised. Centrally located to all of our activities (rainforest, beach and Old San Juan), it was a pleasure to be immersed in an area that was more genuine to experiencing Puerto Rico rather than a sterile resort area. Just a note for light sleepers - the house sits close to a busy city street and sometimes vehicles are not so quiet as they pass by so be prepared! A genuinely fantastic experience my sisters and I would be pleased to repeat.

Perfect for our needs!

Travelled with myself and 2 other friends for a bachelor party, the location was perfect for our needs but I could see how it might not be for everyone. You are very much in a local neighborhood away from most of the major bars and restaurants but had plenty of local shops and convenience stores around to grab quick wares. Ubers are super cheap and everything was pretty close so honestly not a big deal at all. Never spent more than $8 or more than 15 minutes. The places itself was perfect for relaxing while still having some privacy (the hammock in the morning was perfect haha)

Best Birthday Ever !

I absolutely fell in love with this house the moment I laid eyes on it ! The amount of creativity and personality this house has inside and out is amazing . So much art and funny signs that made me smile or laugh everyday . This house had EVERYTHING we needed and as someone who loves to clean and is OCD it made me so happy to see all the cleaning supplies the house came with including beach items . I didn’t have to buy much but food . Location wise this house is super convenient you can walk or take a quick 5-10 minute Uber to a lot of locations such as Calle Loiza (amazing breakfast spots) . I also felt very safe my whole stay here the neighborhood is very friendly and if you have any question people are more then happy to help . Thank you again my amazing host for being so thoughtful and always communicating back .I will definitely be booking this house again !! See you guys soon
