Condo was great

Perfect beach location. The beach was close, clean, had silky sand, and had plenty of sand dollars. The view from the apartment is amazing. The apartment had the best mattresses I have slept on while on vacation in a long time. Convenient washer and dryer in the kitchen. The security guards and other residents at the apartment were super helpful and friendly! So many close restaurants and bars to choose from. Favorites were Boardriders (salmon bowel, mahi bowel, and caprese were delicious), La Fonda Gourmet (we tried many items-all delicious, and servers were great!), and Latin Gyros. Close to a grocery store and other attractions. The host sent a packet of information that served to be very helpful!

Location is where the property is ok to get a good rating besides the inside of the apartment needs alot of maintanence. One star for the great view and one star for the owners prompt response. The parking garage has terrible smell and terrible entrance/exit so we have to walk three stories to the main lobby since ELEVATOR IS BROKEN !! Already had a late checkin with keys missing but owner was quite helpful. Keys were missing in lockbox while checkin.Tons of thing inside the apartment needs updates, from broken furniture to missing fan blade, missing balcony window glass and broken window stopper, balcony has a concrete deteriorating building needs renovation water leaks when standing in balcony, kitchen sink constantly running water, both bathroom shower has missing liners so water floods outside the tub, kitchen needs plenty update, bunk bed was wobbly kids had to sleep on floor with the mattress pulled out. The maintenence manager needs to keep the property properly furnished and pre-checked before guest arrival. The master bath sink was clogged completely. The swimming pool has weird hours open from 9am till 6pm which is when were out exploring when we return home there is no more swimming available. So if the building and swimming pool has keys why the security guard locks it and even though we went at noon time he didnt show up with keys. So kids could'nt enjoy swimming at all !!! Oh and there is a terrible smell soon as you exit the elevator like a dead animal smell. It horrible while you wait for elevator to arrive its unbreathable!!! However the veiw from the balcony was a million dollar view, which my family and I enjoyed every day. Lastly update needed on list of things to do while at the property seems like its outdated completely.

So let’s start with the amazing things about this place. The view is amazing !!!!! The condo is clean, well taken care of and very comfortable. The building is literally on the beach. It’s only about 40 minutes from the airport and San Juan. Besides being on the beach and ocean front there is a river mouth that’s on the beach coming from the Rainforest. The ocean is rough to swim if your not experienced but the river is very calm and safe for kids to play in with supervision. The view from the condo is amazing and the beach is amazing! Rusty brown sand that is really soft. Some of the softest beach sand I’ve walked on. There is plenty a restaurants within a short drive and a few local places with in a few blocks of the condo. They have really good security and you are provided keys to enter the building, elevator and condo which is self check in. You have a personal parking spot that’s secure as well. The condo is gated for all traffic. This is also located a short drive to the rain forest which has waterfalls and two historic towers but you must get tickets in advance or wait to see if they have extra tickets the day before when they release them at 8 and 11 am on the National park website. That said grocery store and other essentials and even fast food places 5 minutes away. They even have a Walmart in the next town south of Luquillo. The owner had clear communication and was easy to deal with. Also clothes washer and dryer inside the place is really convenient. So here is the part to help set your expectations. This is not a resort, this is in the city on the beach and has the smells and stray cats and dogs you would see in even parts of New York City. The building has had better days and new management is working on issues that need to be updated like the elevators not working in the parking garage. Again the typical smells of cats and birds in the garage. They have a pool and a hot tub for the whole condo which is nice including showers and bathrooms so you don’t have to go back to your place. The beach side is not smelly and very refreshing. The down side to the beach is it’s a large long flight of stairs which might be a problem for people with physical limitations. That all said I’ve stayed in multiple places in PR and this place is definitely worth the stay. Also you are near a very good surfing beach that was amazing to watch surfers to shred some waves. There is also other public beaches that are really nice as well. Enjoy your stay.

The property was awesome area view u have everything u need for family and friends to come and enjoy one of the best views ever

The check in process was a pain as well as getting into the unit. Too many keys. The front door was a real pain to lock. The cooling units are very loud. None of us slept great. The condo itself is decorated nicely and has everything you need for the beach. We went to another calmer beach for the day. The building and surrounding area is very worn. Didn’t feel safe walking around after dark. We were glad we only stayed for 2 nights.

Close to lots of adventures (fishing, rainforest, and beaches). Wonderful communication and thoughtfully supplied by owner. Highly recommend for family trips, especially for an authentic Puerto Rican experience. Would recommend to my own family and friends.
