About this apartment rental

The apartment is located in Villas de Playa I in the town of Dorado, readily accesible via expressway from the San Juan Airport. Dorado maintains the blend of a small town with all the ameinities of a large city, since it has become a bedroom community of San Juan.

The apartment is a three bedroom, three level walkup apartment, whose interior has been recently redone, next to the beach with an ocean view. The first level has the living and dining areas, a modern kitchen and a full bathroom, which is convenient since there is a sleeper sofa that converts into a queen sized bed in the living room. In addition to having air conditioning in every room, the living room/kitchen area is also air conditioned.

The second floor has two bedrooms, each with a private full bath. One of the bedrooms has a queen sized bed and faces the ocean; the other has bunk beds which sleeps three persons.Each room is air conditioned. The top floor holds the Master bedroomed,, which is also air conditioned, has a king sized bed, a full bath and a sitting area.

Among other facilities, there is a children's playground as well as two controlled access swimming pools, one of them a wading pool.

The property is next to the Embassy Suites and the Dorado del Mar Golf Club, both less than 5 minutes walking distance. From the apartment you can walk west along Sardinera beach ( beach in the Dorado Beach Hotel ) or exercise along the beach following the Rockefeller nature trail. The Dorado fishing village is next to the compound and you can buy fresh fish directly from the fishermen as they return from the sea around noon each day.

There are several fine restaurants in the area, including the award winning El Ladrillo, which is also an art gallery, as well as other delicious seafood restaurants next to the Dorado beach. If you are into trying typical Puerto Rican fritters, there are also kiosks along the beach to enjoy them.

You are close to three of the most visited tourist locations in Puerto Rico: the Bacardi Rum distillery, the Camuy caves and the Arecibo radiotelescope. The first is located to the east, reachable following route 165, which runs next to the ocean. The other two are to the west, near the town of Lares.

This was our second time staying in this unit. We really enjoyed being back! This is such a great location, with the beach just across the grass on the other side of the gate! Unfortunately, it was cloudy every evening we were there this trip, but we know from our previous stay that it’s a great location to enjoy the sunsets! The unit itself has been recently redecorated, and we love how much space there was for our family to spread out and relax. We had everything we needed for a great vacation. Thanks so much!

This was our 2nd stay. The home was just as we remembered. It was clean, roomy and check in was a breeze. I love how Jorge and his wife are there to greet you in person. There is a pool and you are right on the beach. Its not the best beach however, your on the coast and in PR with many beautiful beaches near. I am looking forward to our next visit.

This was a very pleasant experience! Jorge was very helpful with the entire process and sent clear instructions on how to get there! The place is large and is not even 30 seconds from the beach and pool area! Just a short walk and you’re there! Once you exit the private gated community the plaza right next to you has everything you need from pizza, McDonald’s, Chinese food, clothing shopping and a supermarket! Definitely will be staying again. I also loved that the master had an additional sofa bed!! Great help when traveling with small children.

Immediately book this place! It was the perfect get away for my family of 5 and there was still so much room left. We were immediately greeted with cold water bottles, AC, and my dad even got a beer! The beach is just a short walk from the back porch and we were allowed to use the Embassy Suites beach as well (as beaches in PR are not private). It's centrally located which was great to be able to be a 30min drive from everything we wanted to see. I cannot wait to come back again and visit

Stayed 1 month (awesome discount fyi). The view of the waves, the ocean breeze, access to the beach steps away, pool nearby - wish we could stay longer. It was very quiet, being in the gated Dorado Del Mar neighborhood and the complex has its own gate. We hardly used the whole space, 3 bd/4 bath is a lot! There was good AC in every bedroom plus the 1st floor (main living space). Had some typical critters and some very friendly cats. We locked ourselves out once ( the sea breeze slammed the door!) and the owner called maintenance who got us back inside very quickly. We are just so happy with our stay! Our family will be reminiscing for years.

Villas de Playa 1 is a gated condo complex inside a very large gated community. The condo is very spacious with 3 large bedrooms, each with their own, private bathrooms, plus another full bathroom on the main level. Each bedroom has its own A/C unit, which was nice. The condo itself needs some updating and a more thorough cleaning, but the location, only ~100 feet from a beach and the ocean is amazing. The beds were very firm and could use updating. The appliances were newer and worked well. The large lanai facing the ocean was very nice too. Having our own washer/dryer was a nice plus. The owners are very responsive and own the unit next door. They supplied 6 beach towels, 4 chairs, a cooler and an umbrella. The complex has a large pool area which was barely used when we were there in January. We stayed 3 weeks. Puerto Rico has so many things to do and we really enjoyed our time there. Thanks Jorge!

Everything was wonderful! We arrived so late, past midnight, the guard was incredibly helpful in taking us directly to our unit. Upon entering, everything was clean and organized, beach towels and chairs, patio furniture. The very best part was having four full bathrooms and air conditioning in every room!!! Thank you Jorge! We will definitely recommend you!

Our group of 19 rented a total of 4 villas in Villas de Playas 1 and 2 and stayed for 7 nights. This villa was by far the best and nicest one of all! Perfect location with amazing ocean views from all floors, beds were comfortable, villa was clean, has a washer/dryer, has everything you could need for a fun day at the beach, and within a couple of feet from a usable/swimmable beach! The beach has a barrier("rompe olas"), which made it very fun to be in with younger children and not worry about waves crashing on the shore. With 4 full bathrooms (1 in each bedroom) we had no issues getting our group of 6 plus an infant ready in the mornings. There is plenty of parking and we were never more than a few feet from our pedestrian gate. The owner was SUPER responsive, attentive, and accommodating!
