About this property

Relaxing Home Away From Home

This relaxing apartment is a home away from home. It is great for friends, families and couples to take a break from reality. This 3 bedroom/2 bathroom apartment is located in a gated community that is 10-20 minutes from Playa de Luquillo (Luquillo Beach) and Playa de Picas (Picas Beach). Our second home is about 15 minutes from the National Rainforest of El Yunque and about 40 minutes from San Juan. Explore history, nature, swimming, horseback riding and authentic cuisine.
The space
Our relaxing apartment is great for those interested in enjoying the sun, exploring the activities in the area and engaging in rich cultural experiences throughout the island. The 3 bedroom/2 bathroom apartment is on the ground floor. It has air conditioners in all 3 bedrooms and living/dining room. 2 parking spots are available for this unit and located near the entrance.

We are excited to share our second home with you. This home has allowed us opportunities to relax and recharge with our families and friends. It is located in a quiet community in Rio Grande close to main hotels, attractions like El Yunque National RainForest and restaurants that serve authentic cuisine. You have the luxury of taking a short ride to several beaches and/or taking a brief walk (or car ride) to the pool within the community. There is a small playground within the community to enjoy with your young ones. Embrace the tranquility of sitting on the balcony feeling the morning breeze of the Caribbean.

Throughout the day and evenings, you are able to feel safe and secure knowing that 24 hour security is present.

The TVs in the Master Bedroom and Living room are ROKU. This allows you to access different applications for entertainment or to stream live TV. The Master Bedroom holds a King size bed, the second bedroom holds a queen size bed and the third bedroom holds two twin size beds. All bedrooms have A/C and clothing storage. The entire apartment has WIFI access. The unit has a washer/dryer, dishwasher, microwave, coffee machine, dryer, ironing board and iron.

We are waiting for you. In our guidebook you will find more suggestions as to how to enjoy our surroundings.

Clean and roomy. Community is in the middle of upgrades but it wasn’t disruptive at all. Security was great and accommodating. Still need to fix the bathroom fans, they are LOUD. Not enough to deter us from staying again next visit to the island.

Surprise Bday Trip

I brought my husband & daughter for a surprise bday trip planned at the last min. I seen this condo listed & was a very reasonable price. It looks the same as it is pictured. The neighborhood is pretty quiet & clean. Sonia is an amazing host. She's very responsive & great with communication. She answers any answers you may ask. She made the process very simple, pleasurable & quick!

They knew they had vermin

We were informed they had a insect issue described as "ants" just prior to check in but definitely after the no refund policy. The "ants" were roaches. Our check in process was difficult, we contacted the host via message and phone and didn't hear back until 3 hours later. Overall my experience with Sonia and her property was not enjoyable.

Response from VrboOwner on 8 Apr, 2024
Kandi- I am sorry to hear about this experience, as you did not stay at the residence. Rather your guests, who you reported enjoyed themselves, stayed. Thank you for expressing your concern. Ants are often an insect that appear at beach properties, which require we encourage individuals to clean up after themselves. I never received pictures as I requested. I did still go ahead and followed up on this concern, as I take these matters seriously, to ensure our property does not have roaches.

Airplanes taking off in both Bathrooms!

It was a nice location on the first floor. However, the sliding doors had two locks that were broken. I called the owner, and she had the property manager come out the next evening, but he was not able to fix the sliding doors until the next day! This was uncomfortable for me and my husband! We did not sleep well for two nights! The two bathrooms do have air exhust fans that sound like Airplanes are taken off and are very notice. I let the owner known this fact. Wherther she fix them I do not NO. Will not stay there again!
