Owner very responsive when air conditioning not working. Actually replaced entire unit. Great location cinveniuto town and walk to playa maria. Bunk bed not usable due to noise from upper bunk but owner working on it.

This property was super convenient to everything in Rincon. The views are spectacular for sunsets, and also has the perfect view to start your day, too.
4.0 / 5.0
This was our first stay in the Rincon area. It was a difficult property to find in the dark, this may have been partly because of our lack of knowledge about the area but even our cab driver was confused. The view is spectacular and the property is spacious. After hearing about the lack of hot water at other places we were very pleased to not have an issue with hot water. One thing that could definitely be improved would be comfort. The bed, couch and pillows were really really uncomfortable and there was lounge seating outside to take in the beautiful view.

Amazing views
We stayed at Ensenada in February. The property was perfect. Beautiful views and centrally located to the best places in Rincon. We ate at the Beach House multiple times which is right below Ensenada. Very private, updated, and clean. Plenty of space for a family. Peter, the owner, was accommodating and easily accessible. The only suggestion I have was for the location on the map be updated to reflect the accurate location. We will be back!!

A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!!
Beatiful stay! We'll definitely look to book this place first the next time we are visiting PR. The unit was clean and the view amazing. About 7 min drive to swimming beach (Sandy Beach East, don't go to the west beach, its too rocky to swim). The Beach House restaurant at the bottom of the hill has amazing food and drinks, and a beautiful view. The owner was extremely quick with responses. 10/10.

Amazing getaway
Our stay at Villa Bella was a wonderful experience. The view was breathtaking! Apartment was clean. Water from shower was cold and had low pressure at times, but having lived in the island for many years, you get used to that. Rincon is a great, small town with many hidden gems. Looking forward to coming back.

Amazing View
If you are looking for one of the most amazing views in Rincon, this is your place. Everything was as advertised except the water pressure was very low and the air conditioning didn’t work in the kitchen. Besides that we had a great time and Peter was very at tentative to our requests.

Amazing view, relaxing retreat!
Unbeatable views of sea and surf from this apartment on the ground floor of a grand home, high up on a hill. This comfortable apartment was near-ideal for a tropical getaway for my husband and me. We’re big fans of the laid-back vibe in Rincon, and this proved to be a terrific spot!
We doubt there’s a better location in town to watch the surfers catch waves, take in a sunset, or maybe even glimpse a whale spouting in the distance. At night you can hear the happy sounds of the surf and the coqui if you leave the window open.
I’m an allergy sufferer (allergic to dust mites and mold) and the ability to either let the breezes flow through the windows or use the air conditioning was key to my being able to relax on the vacation. I was comfortable even during the one stormy day we had.
We also really enjoyed the option of walking to The Beach House very nearby at the bottom of the (steep) hill to grab a bite.
While the house has 2 bedrooms, one is a master and the second has a full-size bunk bed setup. This worked fine for the two of us as we didn’t need the bunk bed room.
Be aware that driving up the hill
Is quite steep. You’ll want to go slowly and carefully to avoid the occasional pedestrian or friendly wandering kitty.
Also useful to know: The bed in the master is quite firm. The mattress sits on a slatted base, so this isn’t a cushiony type of bed. Also hot water for the shower was something we experienced only in a short burst or two during our entire stay. Not a deal-breaker for us because the cold water from the tap isn’t truly cold—you’re in Rincon and the weather is warm.
Thank you for a super stay in an
unforgettable spot. We were extremely happy and hope to return!

The property is just above the BeachHouse and has one of the most amazing views in Rincon.
It was exactly as advertised a two bedroom which sleeps six. Amazing views and great breezes up on the hill above the Beach House.

Outstanding property, views of Maria’s beach incredible!!
This location is incredible! Only thing lacking would be an endless pool looking over the beautiful views. We were there for the beach time and sunsets, and we’re not disappointed.

Gorgeous in every way
This is a beautiful home with unbelievable views; the mountains behind, the ocean in front, and a breathtaking sky above. With the lights off the view of the stars from the awesome outdoor space is incredible. Beautiful view of the beach. The kitchen and baths are slam dunk. Everything you could want, it's there. Relaxing and beautiful. The owner was warm and friendly and the property manager was also friendly, helpful and responsive. LOVE this space.

Villa Bella-Rincon
Our peaceful stay at Villa Bella far surpassed any expectation. We found joy in every moment at Sandy Beach just a mile away and the amazing adventures within an hours drive. A spectacular spot with a view of azure water in the horizon. Anyone can find their comfort zone at Villa Bella. Life changing experiences in Rincon, enjoy!

Absolutely, hands down the best view in Rincon!
My wife and 2 kids have been to Rincon several times and Villa Bella was the best yet. Unit was very nice, clean, great kitchen. Very quiet, private. Look forward to going back again and again. Thanks Pete.

Gorgeous views and excellent surfing
The place was outstanding, it was perfect to wake up and sit outside for a bit reading and relaxing. Surfers were out on the breaks almost every morning and all day long, it's fun to watch them and hear the waves from up on the hill. This is a great place to relax or head down to the many beaches close by. It is a little hard to get a nice hot shower for more than a couple minutes but for staying a week or so it's not a big deal, everything else makes up for it. The place is a little hard to find since it is on a little bit of a blind corner and you need to go up a steep hill then flat and then another steep hill but we had no issues with our rental car (Taurus). We'd definitely like to go back sometime if we learn how to surf.

Villa Bella-great place
We stayed at Villa Bella between During Three Kings Week and would highly recommend it. The apartment is virtually brand new and the location perfect ,within walking distance of multiple surf breaks. The views are absolutely spectacular. Pete and Mary Grace were gracious hosts and helpful with local knowledge. The driveway is steep as advertised. I would recommend a powerful SUV or a jeep. Tres Palmas Marine Reserve is a wonderful place for swimming and snorkeling. Steve

There's a single reason for the 2 star rating
My new wife and I were staying at the lovely Villa Bella suite for our honeymoon. Everything was as expected, with the exception of the 2 showers. The hall bath's shower's shower head was leaking so badly that it sprayed everywhere other than where you wanted it to, sideways, vertically, backwards.. which made it unusable. The en suite in the master had it's own set of problems - abysmal water pressure, and the water would only stay hot for a MAX of 25secs (I timed it multiple times), then go icy cold for 90secs, then start it's "hot cycle" again. Now, remember, this was our HONEYMOON. The first day I tried not to complain about it, hoping it would change. Mim (the property manager) was good about getting back to me and said that their plumber recommended letting the water run for at least 5min before getting in. After trying this several times (5mins, 10mins, even almost 15mins) we gave up on the hopes of a decent shower for our stay. But, even if the water had been able to stay hot for longer than 25secs, the pressure was beyond sad. Oddly, the kitchen sink had no issues with pressure or heat, and was always hot nearly instantaneously.
I had expressed my feelings to Mim who suggested I contact the owner. I had hopes that something could be worked out, but, here we are now nearly a month later and have yet to hear back, which leaves me to believe that this concern is either nothing new or not high enough on their priority list to get back to me. Very disappointing as our stay there would have been great otherwise, which is why I gave it a 2 star rating rather than 1. Nothing like spending a day at the beach in the hot sun and salt, to not be able to come home to a shower - ON YOUR HONEYMOON.

Christmas as Villa Bella
My wife and our 29 year old nephew spent 5 nights at Villa Bella over the Christmas holidays from December 24th through 29th. We have been all over the Caribbean and this was one of the best places we have ever stayed. First of all let me say thank you to the owners for their assistance, the ease of booking and renting - very professional and courteous, and then for meeting us on Christmas Eve to drive us in. They also assisted with directions for finding the best surf spots on each day, even accompanying us and showing our nephew the private local beaches unknown to most tourists. Villa Bella was perfectly clean and very well stocked with all the necessary basics to make us more comfortable including beach chairs, plenty of towels, and a well stocked kitchen. Arriving on Christmas Eve, we weren't sure what stores or restaurants would be open or what we would need for food, groceries, etc. Tina answered all of our questions and made sure we were well taken care of. During the week we were able to get groceries at the Econo, good prices by the way, eat at a few fun restaurants such as the Calypso Café, which is within walking distance down the hill, and the English Rose for breakfast, excellent breakfast, but I recommend you make reservations. I must add that the pictures that advertise "spectacular views of Maria's, Indicators, and Tres Palmas" do not begin to do justice to the actual views from the villa and the incredible patio. Sunset in December is directly in front of the villa and there are also fabulous views of the Rincon lighthouse and Desecheo Island. There is a jungle valley along one side of the villa that is really beautiful as well. You can see the ocean from every window in the villa. Even though the villa is air conditioned and the temperatures were in the mid to high 80's throughout our stay, we never once needed the AC. Situated on the hillside, the breezes were perfect and we stayed perfectly comfortable the whole time. This was truly an amazing place to stay for the three of us and we only regret that we couldn't have stayed longer.

We stayed at Villa Bella for a week and wish we would have planned to stay longer. This property is beautifully decorated inside and out and the view is simply the best in all of Ricon. My wife and I always agree that when on vacation the place you stay must be as nice or nicer than your own home. Villa Bella surpassed all our expectations and the owner and her assistant Mim are as welcoming as family. We are already planning our return to this beautiful home and it can't come soon enough.
