We had an incredible stay at this beautiful historic home in the heart of Old San Juan. From the moment we arrived, the experience was flawless. The location couldn’t be better—situated within walking distance to all the major landmarks, charming streets, and vibrant local restaurants. Exploring the city was effortless with everything so close by. The home itself is a stunning piece of history, well preserved but includes all the amenities you could need. The blend of old-world charm and contemporary comfort made our stay feel unique and memorable. The hospitality was top-notch. The hosts were warm and attentive. They went above and beyond to make us feel welcome, providing excellent communication. We truly enjoyed every moment of our stay and would highly recommend this historic home to anyone looking for an authentic Old San Juan experience. It was an unforgettable vacation, and we can't wait to return!

We loved this house. It was beautifully acquainted, extremely spacious and in the perfect location to be close to restaurants and bars in San Juan. I went with a group of 5 girls for my bachelorette and staying here was a major highlight of this trip. Rosa was an excellent host and very responsive with communication throughout our stay.

My husband and I have been to Puerto Rico a few times via cruising but this year for our annual get together with friends we wanted to stay and explore the beautiful historic Old San Juan. We chose this property for its location and we were blown away by its historical charm and decor but with all the modern amenities you would want. The views are spectacular! Morning coffee in the courtyard was so tranquil and it set the mood for our day of exploring all this beautiful city has to offer. Our late afternoon drinks on the rooftop were a must before we headed out for dinner and experienced the nightlife of OSJ. To top it all off, Rosa is a dream host and responded within minutes of anything we needed which wasn’t much as she has truly thought of everything. We can’t wait to return in the future.

I wanted an immersion experience for our yearly family get together. I can find nice boxy hotel rooms anywhere. Rosa’s villa delivered. The experience of living in a 500 year old house in Old San Juan looking out over the ocean was unforgettable. We spent most of our time in the indoor patio overlooking the sea and watching passing traffic, both foot and vehicle-very cool during the Iron Man competition. No roughing it in this historic villa. Any modern convenience desired is here. From gourmet kitchen to waterfall walk-in shower. I can’t say enough about our experience, just being walking distance to everything is so convenient. In addition Rosa is the best communicator I’ve ever dealt with regarding rentals- thank you, Rosa.

I have had the pleasure of visiting Puerto Rico on numerous occasions. This time I chose to spend my entire week in Old San Juan at Rosa’s home. It was a great experience, to spend the days exploring the back streets and little gems downtown. Ample places to relax and dine out each evening, ending the night on the roof deck by the ocean. There were two of us at Casa Lila, so it was nice to have a private bath connected to each bedroom. It was a pleasant and relaxing week in Old San Juan. Thank you Rosa for your hospitality.

Rosa is a perfect host, easy to communicate with and quickly responsive when needed. Bedding and linens are all top quality and so comfortable! Old San Juan is a gem. But I didn’t expect this hypnotically beautiful, historic, artwork-filled house to gently entwine and bewitch me with such force that it would be so agonizing to leave. The house itself, along with its location, is idyllic perfection. The roof deck! The bedroom balcony! The hammocks! The pictures tell you what words cannot begin to do justice to. But the interior seaside courtyard!! She is now a cherished old friend that is part of my soul. Thank you Rosa, I will never forget my stay at Case Lila!
