About this property
Up here, the city meets the sea. The view meets the sky.
Yes, it’s a third-floor walk-up. Yes, the last set of stairs has a little extra personality. And yes — nearly 20 years of 5-star guests have said the same thing: absolutely worth it.
Because the real reveal happens when you open the door. The ocean hits first. Then the light, the open loft, the balcony, the breeze, the wow.
The air-conditioned apartment keeps things cool from the loft to the bedroom, where a king-sized bed waits to restore you after long days in the sun. The bathroom is designed with privacy in mind, offering two separate entry doors with the shower and tub thoughtfully in between — a setup that makes sharing the space easy, comfortable, and cleverly practical.
The living room invites slow mornings with two fold-down futons and a thoughtfully stocked bookshelf. But it’s the terrace that turns moments into memories — sunrise coffee, sunset wine, passing ships, salty air, star-served dinners.
The kitchen is made for real cooking. The king bed is made for real sleeping. And the air-conditioning is made for the kind of nights where you come home blissfully tired.

Outside the door, but not far at all:
• cafés, shops, bars, street music, and a Saturday organic market
• historic icons like El Morro, Casa Blanca Gardens, and the Cathedral
• Old San Juan in full color, right under your feet
Up here, the city meets the sea. The view meets the sky. And the stairs meet their match.
