Información de la propiedad

EL YUNQUE NATIONAL RAINFOREST EXCLUSIVE BUNGALOW ROOF TERRACE APARTMENT!!!

Our property is located 300 meters (+/- 1000 feet) above sea level secluded at the edge of the El Yunque National Forest, one of the most important rainforest ecosystem in the national park inventory. The flora and the fauna are particular to the damp environment, in particular the coqui, a very small frog and the different types of lizards, exhuberant firns and exotic heliconias and bambues populate the landscape around us.

The apartment is located in the bungalow guest house adjacent to the house in which we live. We have been here since 20 years ago enjoying our 3 daughters, nature, my wife's organic vegetable garden, exotic flowers and fruits and the most incredible scenery you can imagine.

The apartment at the guest house is fully equipped to relax and enjoy your stay in the rain forest. The bedroom has a queen size bed that sleeps 2 plus a full futon which sleeps 1 more: In total it sleeps 3. 4 is too tight!

Unfortunately the apartment, the roof terrace and the surroundings are NOT child proof so, please, NO children under sixteen are allowed. It is ideal for a couple hideaway or for a small family adventure. It has a fully equipped kitchenette (separate from the bedroom), with a wooden dinning table to enjoy your meals, card games and conversations overlooking the vegetable garden, the mountains and the ocean. A fantastic private terrace above the apartment is ideal for BBQ's, watching spectacular sunsets, star gazing or as your own solarium. Our small, but wonderful family pool and spacious sun terrace is available for our guests.

There are many to do things such as sightseeing and adventures, some within walking distance and some at the most 45 minutes away. But one of the best is just dedicating one day to stay home and enjoy the rainforest and it's magic.
For more info visit us at KOKIANOHA in FBook, like and share with your friends and family . Please check-out the albums for adventures and sightseeing suggestions as well as our guests'posts

Rainforest privacy and natural beauty.

Esteban and his wife offered the perfect rainforest getaway for this VRBO property. Fun location within the National Forest bounds. The apartment is beautifully designed. Also clean as a pin. Nature is everywhere. I’m greatful to have had this experience.

The perfect location, the most gracious hosts, and a gorgeous home. The perfect trip in all respects

We had a great time staying in this El Yunque bungalow. The property was stunning, and the bungalow itself was cozy and had a kitchen with everything we could need, a bedroom with AC (which we didn't need/use), a very nice bathroom, and the perfect little roof to take in the views. Our hosts were gracious, welcoming, and full of helpful tips and advice. I would recommend this trip to anyone--and am likely to return.

Beautiful property with so much character in a great location.

My boyfriend and I stayed here on the recommendation of friends. We were not let down. The property and the hosts are awesome. The apartment has everything you need and is close to endless adventures. We would definitely come back.

Beautiful location, marvelous hosts

We enjoyed our stay here very much. The property is gorgeous and very well-maintained. You will have your choice of extreme relaxation and solitude or adventures galore within El Yunque and the surrounding area. Beaches are a short drive away; ALL is a short drive away! The journey up and down the mountain to come and go is an endearing adventure involving trust in your fellow man as well as the rental car's suspension! Your hosts are lovely and unobtrusive - available if needed. Esteban is clearly passionate about sharing his home, and all it has to offer, with his guests. I know he loves his home, his family and his island; he wants everyone to enjoy the many offerings of Puerto Rico. With every visit to this truly enchanted island, I find myself more and more envious of the culture which defines these lovely, loving, kind and friendly folks. We are blessed to have Puerto Rico as our friend, and we must treasure her. Esteban and his family are marvelous ambassadors.

Great way to experience the rainforest

Our family of 4 enjoyed staying in this guest house in the rain forest. We especially appreciated the comfortable beds, privacy, pool and being able to prepare most of our meals in the little kitchen. Esteban was a friendly and helpful host. We feel lucky to have been able to stay here!

Welcoming hosts, peaceful Haven away from it all enjoying nature! Gorgeous grounds!

We had an amazing stay for about a week in this rainforest bungalow. They had everything we needed from extra pillows to basic needs in the house. The two terraces were very private overlooking the city lights at night and had tables for us to eat. We saw several coqui frogs on the premises and enjoyed birds chirping. Two min away was Toro trail. There were no tourists on this since it's no longer an official trail but was safe for us 3 including our 9 y.o. Also had local panderias 15 min from house in rainforest with great snacks. We tried to make sure we got home before 7 since it's a curvy dark road, but found roads 186 and 196 not bad. Well worth the drive up there. We asked our hosts if we could get married just us on their terrace. They were happy to let us and the space was big enough outside for our minister Ogla and photographer. It looked like it was going to rain so they let us use their personal terrace with a roof and we had a lovely ceremony over the trees. I had the best pictures by their lit pool and well kept garden. My daughter even enjoyed playing with their daughter, and they shared some Of their great homemade cheese. They truly made us feel like we were on a secluded paradise for our wedding and honeymoon.

Amazing Experience

Everything was amazing about our stay here. Esteban and his wife were great hosts. They answered any questions we had and were friendly and fun to talk to. The guesthouse was a great experience. You're minutes away from the rainforest and the view from the property is amazing. You can see out onto part of the rainforest and even part of the city and shoreline in the far off distance. There's a nice private rooftop patio onto of the guest house that you can enjoy with privacy, a great spot for a drink and enjoying the view. Inside you get a kitchen, bedroom, and bathroom. A very nice amount of space and amenities for the price, there isn't a better deal. The futon might be a bit small for four depending on their ages, that'd be my only caution. Everything else though was perfect and added a lot of memories to our honeymoon!

Amazing getaway in the middle of the rainforest!

Esteban and his family went above and beyond to welcome us and help us get the most out of our 3-night stay in El Yungue. He gave us pointers and directions to nearby sites, and we had a wonderful time exploring the rainforest and surrounding area. We were even able to find our own private waterfall and wading pools away from tourists. The bungalow is PERFECT, with everything you need to relax, cook, and feel at home. The views from the bungalow were breathtaking, and we enjoyed breakfast on the upper terrace every morning. This place is lovely, and we would highly recommend it to anyone looking to explore the El Yungue region of Puerto Rico, relax, and get away from the hustle and bustle of the surrounding cities. We hope to return in the future! Thanks to Esteban and his family for the warm hospitality.

Beautiful and quiet stay

If you are looking for getting away from the busy life of the city... This is it! It's a beautiful apt/house deep inside the rain forest. Don't use Google.. or think you can wing it. Google maps is not well versed in Puerto Rico. Literally use the directions provided by the host and you'll be fine (which means stick to the 185 and 186 roads). The apt is very well equipped with pretty much any amenity you can imagine. I loved the thoughts that went into pretty much every corner of the place. The design is playful and beautiful! The host family is wonderful. I ended up talking to them in the afternoons and I felt I was part of their family. In terms of food, there is a small but well stocked grocery store near the 185-186 intersection. Just look for Supermercado on your Google maps and you'll find it. I ended up getting some good there and found some BBQ in the afternoon. I honestly wanted to get away from the city and feel calm. This place did it and was phenomenal! Coming back next year.

Perfection

Absolutely loved our experience!! We only stayed 3 nights, but we wish we could've stayed longer! An amazing view to wake up to, and to watch the stars and the twinkling city lights at night. The house was so unique and had everything we needed. We bought groceries and cooked most of our meals, but ate dinner out a few times. Great location- we were able to hike El Yunque and Toro during the days, spent an evening in Old San Juan, and even fit in some shopping at the nearby outlet mall. Esteban and Magdalena are so down to earth, their family made our stay even more special because they are so fun to be around!

Absolutely beautiful!

From the breathtaking views to the relaxing, magical accommodations, we enjoyed every moment we were here. Our wonderful hosts made us feel so welcome and recommended so many fun things to see and do... including taking time to relax and take in the beauty of the rainforest and its waterfalls. We loved everything about this vacation and hope to return soon. We miss our new friends already! Thank you, Esteban and Magdalena, from our hearts to yours.

Beautiful apartment in the rainforest!

We loved staying at this beautiful place. Esteban and Magdalena are very welcoming, and our kids had loads of fun playing with their daughter. We didn't even leave the first day we were there, we just hung out in the apartment and played in the pool. We loved hearing the sound of the rain and the song of the coquis at night. The first night we arrived late, and they brought us a local squash from the garden, since we hadn't gone food shopping. One recommendation: be sure you get a final confirmation email with detailed instructions to get there from the highway. We had some confusion and very little cell service. The property was very clean and well-maintained, customer service was excellent. I would definitely recommend this property to friends or relatives, and we hope to return next year.

shhhhh! Almost too wonderful a place to share.....

Our four nights at this unique tree top escape were very special , almost too wonderful to share with anyone else. Esteban and Magdalena have a unique mountaintop retreat, with panoramic views to the west and north including San Juan lights at night and incredible sunsets from the rooftop private deck. At a height of a thousand feet above sea level the temperatures and breezes are much cooler than the coast and city making this a lovely escape but within easy drive to El Yunque, San Juan, Luquillo beach, Fajardo or hiking on the many trails in the rain forest. One day we stayed home and relaxed by the pool and picked fresh veggies from Magdalenas garden for dinner. The place has everything you could possibly need, a very comfortable bed and wonderful hosts who have opened their arms to share their very special structure designed by these architect owners. Shhhhh keep this place a secret please!

Wonderful house in El Yunque!

I stayed at Esteban's guest home for Easter weekend 2016, and it was so beautiful, neither my children nor I wanted to leave! He and his wife are wonderful hosts, and once we found the place (my GPS was messing up, and Esteban was very helpful guiding us in!) we knew we'd made a great choice. The views are breathtaking, and the home is immaculate and wonderfully apportioned. We had plenty of room to spread out, and we loved listening to the sound of the coquis at night. After a day of traveling, my children appreciated the pool very much. I felt so at peace there and the children said they wanted to move there, lol! Sitting on the rooftop terrace at night, looking at the stars was great. I highly recommend this bungalow, you definitely can't go wrong if you choose to stay here!

Wonderful Location / Excellent Hosts / Great Apartment

Magdalena and Esteban were amazing hosts. Upon arrival, they immediately gave us a lengthy tour of their incredible vegetable garden, and invited us to have anything we wanted. Their property is in a remote part of the rainforest, definitely off the beaten path. It felt exciting and authentic to be in this area. The apartment is very comfortable, practical and stylish, and the rooftop deck is great. Fantastic value. There is an amazing trail through the El Toro Wilderness less than a mile from their house, which we hiked on our first day and didn't see a soul (which stands in sharp contrast to the more popular trails/sights in El Yunque proper). Mixed feelings on recommending this place so highly because I'm sure it will be impossible to get a reservation next time we visit, but they deserve it!

Awesome

This place was great. We had our own apartment with bathroom and kitchen overlooking the rain forest. Estaban and his wife were great hosts. We got in in the evening and had to leave pretty quickly to get to the Bio Bay. Knowing that we weren't going to have enough time to eat, they made us a little salad. It was perfect! I recommend this place for anyone wanting to stay in the Rainforest. If we go back to Puerto Rico, we will stay here again.

The best views ever!

We loved staying in this little hideaway gem! The hosts were very accommodating and gracious, and we enjoyed every minute of our stay. With the light showers in the morning we saw the most awesome rainbows, sometimes even double rainbows!!! We were happy to have rented a car, so we could visit the area, go to the city or the beach. Loved it and will come back!

Magdalena and I are both architects and are both in love with nature. She obtained her Masters in Architecture at the University of Puerto Rico and I obtained my Masters at Cornell University. In 2001 we opened our private practice and I also teach at the University of Puerto Rico since 1988. As a full professor I have been appointed Associate Dean and Acting Dean as well as president of the Personnel Commitee. I teach an undregraduate architectural design studio as well as a professional practice course at the graduate level. My passion is drawing and sketching and taking my students to sketch in Old San Juan as well as organize travelling studios to Europe. My wife's passion is gardening and has an organic vegetable and spice garden. Our daughters are 27, 15 and 8. The eldest one lives in London developing her theater career, the middle sibling is in a specialized music school developing her voice (she is a soprano) and the youngest one is in gymnastics.
Our profession and our daughters keep us very busy during the week and during the weekends we love to stay home and work in the gardens and maintaining our property which is about an acre of land.
1n 1999 we built the guest house with the 2 purposes: One, to become a refuge in case of a very strong hurricane (since our home is made out of wood) and second, for our family to stay when they came to visit. We always had comments on why didn't we rent our guest house apartment to tourists since the place is so beautiful: the surrounding rainforest is magestic and our place is magical, quiet and so relaxing. Well after many years of attempts to convince us, we have decided to give-it a try: Rent to special people who want to stay and enjoy the wonders of the tropical rainforest and if they desire I can take them to a very special day tour to Old San Juan, or the Yunque National Forest trails or organize them a unforgettable sailing trip.

Come visit our place and enjoy and see Puerto Rico in a whole different way!

Por qué eligió esta propiedad

There may very well be other properties for vacation rental in the rainforest, however ours is the greates because of the following 3 aspects:
1) It is located 300 m (+/- 900 ft) above sea level (higher than the other rentals) which is a privilege because of the magnificent views, air and sun.
2) It is located 30 to 45 minutes away from most of the best sightseeing places or adventures you might want to visit or experience in Puerto Rico.
3) We live in the property which will give you added benefits of advise in terms of places to see or things to do and maybe the opportunity to share and become friends
