Host was extremely responsive to any inquiries. Balneario Punta Salinas Beach is about 5 minutes away which made it very convenient for a pre-dinner refesh after a day of exploring all that Puerto Rico has to offer. We also spent hours there on rest days. The house has camp chairs, coolers, and other beach items which made those hours on the beach more comfortable. The house was clean and comfortable. The neighborhood seemed on par with other neighborhoods in the area. There are several very good restaurants within walking distance; many have limited parking so walking was the best option. We did not use the outside spaces and the listing pictures are dated, but we were very comfortable.
This place is in a very good location. It is beachfront but note that there is a highway in between you and the beach. If it wasnât for the trees, you would have a view, but you only need to walk a half a block to a red light and cross the highway to the beach, which is very beautiful. A short few minute drive up the beach to Salinas is a wonderful beach with showers, bathrooms, and more. The only thing I would note for a person coming in would be that the pillows are flat and covered in a plastic covering that crinkles when you sleep. So I would recommend your own pillow if you can and also hand towels. I rate this a five out of five because it is updated with only a few minor non-updated details and it suited our purposes for going to old San Juan and beaches. The host was very responsive to any problem that we had and fixed it immediately. I would recommend this place. If you ask her for recommendations of places to go, she is very accommodating to helping you. It is a nice neighborhood with only a few rundown places around it. An attached garage is great. She has all the beach gear you would need including snorkeling, equipment, and an umbrella.
For the most part the place served its purpose for sleeping with plastic cover pillows (crunchy). However, it does not sleep 8 it only sleeps 6 and there is only 2 bathrooms not 3. Barely any hot water and the outdoor furniture is extremely dirty so we couldnât enjoy the outdoors in the back. The beach is across the street from the home not water front isnât swimmer friendly and has tons of glass and trash in the sand. Property does not match the picturesâŠ
The house is very comfortable, close to everything. Beautiful view, quiet neighborhood. I stayed with my two sons, daughter in law and two grandkids, everybody enjoyed the house and beds were very comfortable. Will definitely book again.
Nice house. Clean. Snorkeling gear was a plus! Nice bathrooms and bedrooms. Living room had very cozy couches. Great A/C. Cooled house quickly even when we turned A/C off when we were not at the house. Only 3 chairs for dining table. Beach chairs were broken. Very small beach towels. A/C unit in one bedroom leaked on floor. Emailed before trip with questions and didn't get email back. and emailed when checked out with A/C problem- no email back.
Pictures are beautiful! But the beach across the street is full of trash ! Lots of problems with not having a working refrigerator ,freezer worked ! No hot water . Host blamed it on power . Power outage was after all these problems . Repairs never happened!! Leak in ceiling flooded couch . Sleeps only six not 8! I received 700 back should have gotten all !! Love Puerto Rico! Will never stay at a rental house again
