We had a great time. The condo was clean. Our beds were okay. The couch okay. The chair not too good. A loud air conditioner. But the price was great, we were close to everything, beauty of nature abundant. We would stay again.

A week in luquillo
The condo came as described. Monica was very communicative and even brought us brand new sheets when we asked. The views of the beach are unmatched!! My only complaint would be that the building and the unit need updating and the elevator is old and takes forever. And the buttons don’t light up so you have no idea what floor you’re on or if the elevator is even coming. These aren’t Monica’s fault though. She was amazing and we loved our stay in luquillo!! Can’t wait to come back!

Balcony with a view
This was just perfect for our small family. the town was quiet, yet full of life, restaurants were easy walking distance. I saw an earlier review before that rated this condo very poorly, and had many complaints. Now that ive stayed here, im even more bewildered by that review. Yes the railing on the balcony is weathered, but most railings would be that expereince tropical storms and hurricanes. The unit was small- but were not traveling there to hang out in a condo all day. The kitchen seemed well stocked but we took full advantage of the area restaurants- our two best meals were walking distance away. The current was rough during our stay but driving to a calmer beach was easy and there were so many to choose from. The beds were comfy but wobbely- we adjusted to it but didnt love the wobbeliness of them. The guards at the gate were so nice and helpful. The parking was easy and secure! the neighbors were friendly and helpful, and in general people were just so kind and inviting to us. Monica, the property manager was outstanding in her responsiveness, clear concrete/ detailed instructions, and assistance. The sunrises were devine, the view of the rainforest was perfect, and we loved being out of the bustle of the city. This place doesnt oversell its self in the desciption, what it advertises is what you get- and it's just what we wanted. wreview.

Incredible view, wonderful location.
The apartment, on the 11th floor is roomy and convenient. The terrace and view from the balcony is unbelievably wonderful. Truly get to enjoy the relaxing sounds of the waves. The secluded beach that the property lets out to has beautiful golden sands that extend for miles. There are also nice marshes alongside the beach. Additionally its a walk way from other beautiful beaches, including luquillo beach. Luquillo is a nice little town. The building and parking facillities are a little worn and run down, but we didn't experience any significant problems.

Mother daughter girls trip
Mom and I usually go on vacation for her birthday. This was our first time not staying at a hotel. The host and security staff were excellent. The rooms were perfect for our stay. We were able to cook a meal and enjoyed the views and ocean waves from balcony. Easy access to beach. There are a lot of steps to get to the beach from room, so be careful. We rented a car and vehicle was safe in secured parking lot. Wonderful stay and excellent communication from Host. Would stay again.

VRBO Rental Review - Puerto Rico Anniversary Trip ⭐
We booked this VRBO rental in Puerto Rico for our anniversary, but it was not what we expected. The photos seemed enhanced, hiding the true state of the property. Upon arrival, we were greeted by about 50 cats at the front gate, and the security guard wasn’t really “securing” anything and didn’t have info on any of the units.
The parking garage was dimly lit, and the building showed signs of age and storm damage. Despite this, we remained hopeful for the inside of the unit. Unfortunately, the elevators were extremely old and even misled us about the floor we were on. The living room had a plastic fan attempting to cool down the space, & the balcony view was far from the beautiful photo online.
In the first bedroom, the window unit appeared to have mold extending from the bottom up towards the bunk beds and ceiling. There were also open and used condiments left in the fridge, & the freezer racks were rusted. To top it off, we saw several small insects around the kitchen stove, counters, & sink. We took video of this in case of dispute.
We notified the host the same day, but the owners didn’t respond to VRBO for a week as they were vacationing in Alaska. We paid for 5 nights including a cleaning fee to only received a refund for only 2 nights!! We had to spend more money booking our stay elsewhere. We could’ve celebrated our anniversary abroad for what we ended up spending on this trip. NEVER AGAIN!!

First time in PR
The building where we stayed was pretty old, needing some upgrades for sure. The balcony rails looked old and unsafe. That being said the apartment was quite comfortable, everything we needed was available to us, it was clean. The part of town the building was located in was run down, but that could be due to past storms. We did not feel unsafe. The west part of town is charming, has many good restaurants and pretty beaches. The folks in town were very nice and hospitable… we enjoyed waking up to the sounds of waves… nice place, beautiful island! we loved
Puerto Rico and we will be coming back again! Thanks so much.

Perfect location & well-equipped
The best part about this property is the location. It's right on a gorgeous beach (just an elevator ride and a set of stairs away). There are many restaurants within easy walking distance.
The condo also had everything we could have possibly wanted (beach toys, boogie boards, tupperware, beach chairs, reusable grocery bags). It's one of the best equipped places we have ever stayed.
We had the best communication of any VRBO stay with this host. She contacted us a week before arrival not only with check in information but also with information about the area. She provided additional information on the day of check in and touched base with us several times during our stay.
The only word of caution I would provide is to families with small children: the balcony is in a state of disrepair (part of being so close to the ocean). This is a safety concern for families with young (impulsive) children.
Overall, we were very happy with our stay.

Relaxing vacation
The condo was perfect for our vacation, it was right where an endless beach for walking stretched one direction and the other direction the beach passed in front of the town. It was easy to walk to multiple restaurants, close to groceries and convenient for visiting the rain forest and other attractions.
Inside the condo was very clean, comfortable and well kept. There were plenty of towels and things for the beach. The exterior of the building and neighborhood shows wear from past hurricanes but all the people we encountered were very friendly and the area felt safe.

Our own piece of paradise.
I cannot say enough wonderful things about our recent stay in Luquillo. The host, Monica was more than gracious, responsive and informative. The property was exactly as described; all the comforts and amenities of home. I've seen other reviews that say that the building is well past it's prime, but don't let that deter you from booking at Sandy Hills. The apartment and the entire building were very clean, and secure. The stunning ocean views from the private balconies speak for themselves. The building is steps off from a very secluded beach and just a short walking distance from numerous restaurants and bars. We rented a car and it's a quick drive to gas stations, grocery stores, pharmacies, Beaches and El Yunque.

Ocean spa on the balcony!
We loved the balcony especially, with the sound of the crashing waves and the beautiful view of the greenery and golden sand. We also enjoyed that we could walk to bars/restaurants. The many gates/security made it difficult for the family to move about independently (should have asked for an extra set of keys). We couldn't swim at the beach as it was too rough but enjoyed sitting on the beach and watching the waves. The property manager was amazing.

Walking from the parking lot to the condo is definitely a challenge as other reviews of pointed out, but you get used to it. The immediate culture around the condos is definitely worth this day. The buildings are a little dated. However, the condo itself was very much remodeled and modern. The host was very prompt with any and all concerns and was especially helpful prior and during our stay. The location was perfect and allowed you to have quick access to the popular touring areas on the island versus staying in San Juan.
Several casinos were located throughout the area I would go to tropical.

Great beach stay
We loved that the apartment building was right next to a 2 mile stretch of beach that was also a national park so no development and at times it felt we had the beach all to ourselves. We did need a car to get groceries, but many options 5-10 minutes away. The property manager Monica was helpful and responsive. Great place for a relaxing hang out at the beach vacation. Loved the porch!

Perfect Location
We had a wonderful stay at this property. It was wonderful to hear the waves constantly crashing against the shore. The view from the balcony is amazing and the location is perfect for exploring the east side of Puerto Rico. Monica was an excellent host. She provided great suggestions for exploring the island and responded promptly when we had a question about the internet. The apartment was clean and we appreciated the beach toys and towels. Would diffinently stay hear again.

Good Value in a Good Location
Very clean condo with outstanding ocean views. Basic, secure building in working-class neighborhood. We liked the "local vibe" with the stray cats and chickens around, but it's not for everyone.
This was our first trip to PR and we are glad we chose this place. We wanted a genuine PR experience not a sanitized resort and we appreciated the easy beach access and the ability to see and mix with the local townspeople.
It's a quick drive to beautiful Loquillo Beach and the kioskos. The rain forest and Fajardo excursions are also not far. We always looked forward to returning to this quiet and comfortable condo at the end of the day.
It's a bit of a challenge to first negotiate the layout of the parking garage and buildings but it's easy soon enough. Would not hesitate to book here again.

Waves 24-7!!! ❤️
The view from here is unbeatable and the short amount of time to walk from condo to the ocean was no more than 5 min. They do lock the gates at 6 but it only takes about another 5 min to walk around the building and be right there!!! The parking was not as terrible as made out to be! There was pleanty of food in walking distance and the condo itself was easy to be comfortable in. I was slight disappointed about there not being the fruit and flowers as the description on line said as I keep these at home and thought it would be a nice touch , HOWEVER this stay was so relaxing and we would definitely come back!!

Enjoyed our stay!
Our unit has an amazing view of the ocean. It has all the amenities and comfort we needed during our stay. Online listing is very accurate. Thank you for providing plenty of bath and beach towels. The condo is a short drive to everything. There are grocery stores, pharmacies and lots of restaurants nearby. If you’re planning to visit El Yunque, Carabali rainforest adventure (highly recommend), bio bay tour, snorkel tour and nice beaches, it’s less than 20 minute drive. San Juan, Old San Juan and airport is just 40 minute drive. Monica, our host is wonderful. She communicated everything from checking in and out, parking arrangement and gave listings to explore on the island. In the beginning, I was having second thoughts about staying in Luquillo but glad we did. We enjoyed our stay and I recommend this condo. Puerto Rico did not disappoint!

Family vacation
The condo was the perfect accommodation for our trip! Monica's instructions for check-in were clear and spot on. The few times I had questions, she was quick to respond.
The location was ideal for us- just minutes away from the food kiosks in Luquillo, the beach and el Yunque.
My only suggestion would be to add blinds to the living room to help keep the temperature down.
