There are so many wonderful adventures to explore in this area! Non-chain restaurants, bars and convenience stores are walking distance from condo. Farmers markets, fresh produce stands, food trucks offering authentic Puerto Rican food and festivals are often times held at the Town Plaza which is a couple minute walk from condo. CVS, Walgreens, Walmart and other retail options are a 5 minute drive away for convenience.

ABOUT THE OWNERS AND WHY WE FELL IN LOVE WITH THE AREA :
Our names are Beth and Skip and we have two sons Dominic (14 years old) and Roman (8 years old). We are from Minnesota where the arctic air often times out weighs the warm air! Puerto Rico is an incredible escape for us literally any time of the year with average temperatures between 80-90 degrees. We have traveled to many amazing places, but Luquillo Puerto Rico instantly had our hearts. The people of Luquillo are incredibly helpful and welcoming and the authentic vibe of Puerto Rico is strong. The magic of the Island for us is in the variety of activities it offers, it never gets repetitive. The ocean for us is healing with the sound of the waves crashing on the shore that you can hear from our condo, the soft sand our feet sink into as we walk along the beach and the fact that El Yunque Rainforest (the only tropical rain forest in the US Forest System) is visible from our condo and only a 10 minute drive away makes our location absolutely perfect! Majestic and lush the rainforest offers so much to explore with hiking and searching for the off beaten paths that lead to waterfalls! Another beautiful nature attraction is the Bioluminescent Bay in Fajardo, which is a 20 minute drive from our condo!
Even if we want a day to stay in and relax we can still feel apart of all the beauty that surrounds us by lounging on the balcony and watching the changing of the tide and the captivating sky where we often see rainbows and stars so bright it looks like we can reach out and touch them.
2 years ago when we purchased this unit it was listed on Airbnb for the last 5 years with a 4.9 Star review rating.
We would love to make our home away from home YOUR home anytime you are here!

****Due to Hurricane Maria hitting Puerto Rico very hard a couple of years ago our buildings are currently being repaired. There may be some unexpected issues that go along with construction. Please keep in mind you are on a tiny island in the middle of the Caribbean Ocean and living amongst locals. Luquillo is not a tourism hub, it is a surf village filled with amazing character. The pool is sometimes unexpectedly closed due to construction, but the ocean is just steps away! Weather, construction and power outages are unpredictable and can happen at any time.

VRBO Rental Review - Puerto Rico Anniversary Trip ⭐ We booked this VRBO rental in Puerto Rico for our anniversary, but it was not what we expected. The photos seemed enhanced, hiding the true state of the property. Upon arrival, we were greeted by about 50 cats at the front gate, and the security guard wasn’t really “securing” anything and didn’t have info on any of the units. The parking garage was dimly lit, and the building showed signs of age and storm damage. Despite this, we remained hopeful for the inside of the unit. Unfortunately, the elevators were extremely old and even misled us about the floor we were on. The living room had a plastic fan attempting to cool down the space, & the balcony view was far from the beautiful photo online. In the first bedroom, the window unit appeared to have mold extending from the bottom up towards the bunk beds and ceiling. There were also open and used condiments left in the fridge, & the freezer racks were rusted. To top it off, we saw several small insects around the kitchen stove, counters, & sink. We took video of this in case of dispute. We notified the host the same day, but the owners didn’t respond to VRBO for a week as they were vacationing in Alaska. We paid for 5 nights including a cleaning fee to only received a refund for only 2 nights!! We had to spend more money booking our stay elsewhere. We could’ve celebrated our anniversary abroad for what we ended up spending on this trip. NEVER AGAIN!!

The building where we stayed was pretty old, needing some upgrades for sure. The balcony rails looked old and unsafe. That being said the apartment was quite comfortable, everything we needed was available to us, it was clean. The part of town the building was located in was run down, but that could be due to past storms. We did not feel unsafe. The west part of town is charming, has many good restaurants and pretty beaches. The folks in town were very nice and hospitable… we enjoyed waking up to the sounds of waves… nice place, beautiful island! we loved Puerto Rico and we will be coming back again! Thanks so much.

Loved this stay, quiet and cozy. Beautiful view, owner is very friendly and responsive. Quiet area but close enough to all tourist attractions just a short drive. Gated community with private pool was nice :)

The best part about this property is the location. It's right on a gorgeous beach (just an elevator ride and a set of stairs away). There are many restaurants within easy walking distance. The condo also had everything we could have possibly wanted (beach toys, boogie boards, tupperware, beach chairs, reusable grocery bags). It's one of the best equipped places we have ever stayed. We had the best communication of any VRBO stay with this host. She contacted us a week before arrival not only with check in information but also with information about the area. She provided additional information on the day of check in and touched base with us several times during our stay. The only word of caution I would provide is to families with small children: the balcony is in a state of disrepair (part of being so close to the ocean). This is a safety concern for families with young (impulsive) children. Overall, we were very happy with our stay.

The condo was perfect for our vacation, it was right where an endless beach for walking stretched one direction and the other direction the beach passed in front of the town. It was easy to walk to multiple restaurants, close to groceries and convenient for visiting the rain forest and other attractions. Inside the condo was very clean, comfortable and well kept. There were plenty of towels and things for the beach. The exterior of the building and neighborhood shows wear from past hurricanes but all the people we encountered were very friendly and the area felt safe.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about our recent stay in Luquillo. The host, Monica was more than gracious, responsive and informative. The property was exactly as described; all the comforts and amenities of home. I've seen other reviews that say that the building is well past it's prime, but don't let that deter you from booking at Sandy Hills. The apartment and the entire building were very clean, and secure. The stunning ocean views from the private balconies speak for themselves. The building is steps off from a very secluded beach and just a short walking distance from numerous restaurants and bars. We rented a car and it's a quick drive to gas stations, grocery stores, pharmacies, Beaches and El Yunque.

We loved the balcony especially, with the sound of the crashing waves and the beautiful view of the greenery and golden sand. We also enjoyed that we could walk to bars/restaurants. The many gates/security made it difficult for the family to move about independently (should have asked for an extra set of keys). We couldn't swim at the beach as it was too rough but enjoyed sitting on the beach and watching the waves. The property manager was amazing.

Walking from the parking lot to the condo is definitely a challenge as other reviews of pointed out, but you get used to it. The immediate culture around the condos is definitely worth this day. The buildings are a little dated. However, the condo itself was very much remodeled and modern. The host was very prompt with any and all concerns and was especially helpful prior and during our stay. The location was perfect and allowed you to have quick access to the popular touring areas on the island versus staying in San Juan. Several casinos were located throughout the area I would go to tropical.
