This unit was perfect for our family of 5 with kids of varying ages. Beautiful beach access steps away and a nice pool area right out the front door. Enough space for everyone to have some privacy. Close to many attractive activities without the hustle of San Juan. William is a great host and communicated well throughout the stay.

Had a terrific family vacation. This location was perfect for exploring beaches, El Yunque National Forest, San Juan, and much more. The property was everything I expected and the owner was very responsive.

Overall the condo was nice and has everything you need. The location was excellent and communication with the host was exceptional. A miss on my part was assuming we had access to the whole condo. A portion is limited because this also serves as the host’s second home. The listing is 100% accurate, however we’ve stayed at Vereda de Mar several times in similar condos that proved access to a true master bedroom with additional bathroom. This was offset by a very nice build out of the patio that served as a family room and 3rd bed. It was a nice touch.

The property was spacious and had all the amenities we needed. It was pretty good. The only problems was that it rained on our last day and water started coming in the house.

This spacious condo was tucked away on the shore of Rio Grande close to the border with Loiza. The whole place was filled with natural light and each room had its own AC. Multiple terraces afforded beautiful views of the inland mountains. Direct access to the community pool and private beach at the end of the property for those days you’re just too tired to explore. Located mid-way on the south side of the island, 45 minutes west of San Juan, less than an hour from the ferry to Culebra or Vieques. I would highly recommend this place for families looking to get away from the bustle and traffic of the big city.

We loved the cleanliness, well-stocked home, and the location. We were 5 adults and 2 children and could easily fit in a few more with plenty of space. The home was stocked with lots of towels and essentials. It’s located in a safe community with access to tennis courts (rackets in closet), pool (beach chairs), and beach. Super close to El Yunque, Wyndham Rio Mar, outdoor sports at Carabalí Rainforest park. The landlords were very responsive and thoughtful. I told them it was our anniversary and we were welcome with a beautiful bottle of wine. We will totally book this place again when we return. Only minor inconvenience was lack of hot water the last few days. Likely due to a building issue since we saw maintenance working on the electrical panel of the building- landlord was super apologetic noting it hadn’t happened before. We loved our stay and can’t wait to return!
