Our building is RIGHT ON THE BEACH, so there is ZERO walking distance to the beach and the pool. Private parking space conveniently located right in front of the entrance to the West Tower.

The Marbella del Caribe building boasts the best amenities on the whole strip -- no other building comes close to comparison! We have a beautifully remodeled large pristine swimming pool with separation of shallow and deep areas with small fountains in the pool, and modern / clean bathrooms and outdoor shower. A huge array of outdoor circuit workout equipment, picnic huts and grilling tables, a basketball court, and a fully-equipped playground also are on the building's exclusive grounds. Then you'll have your own private, secured access in/out of the most famous beach in San Juan --- known for its talcum-powder sand, extra-clean grounds, extremely high security measures from nonstop monitoring by local authorities, and the softest, most gentle waves that lull you immediately into a dream state.

We suggest you rent a car just for the days you would like to go to the rainforest or West Coast of the island.

Please note you will be staying on the most famous strip in San Juan known as Isla Verde Avenue (think Las Vegas Strip or Times Square). As such, the strip is occupied by the newest and grandest hotels & casinos, as well as bars, restaurants, cafes, convenience stores, wine shops, car rental shops, tour activities shops, and more -- many of them open 24 hours. As such there may be a tendency for celebration, lights, noise, and music especially during weekend nights. We have brand new windows and sliding doors for the balcony as well mini split ACs, ceiling fans, and white noise machines in both bedrooms to help reduce the impact of noise. Please be aware those looking for total relaxation and quiet, we recommend you book outside the metro San Juan area in areas like Rio Grande, Dorado, or Isabela that may be more your suitable.

Also note that there are over 400 units among the 2 towers (East and West). At any given point, any condo may be undergoing renovation or remodeling. We do not keep track of our 399+ unit neighbors and Building Management does not require condo owners to notify all owners -- only file a permit with their office. When you book our place you understand that there may be construction going on in 1 of the 400+ units in either tower. Thank you for your empathy and understanding in advance.

The oldest city in the New World with its 550+ year old cobblestone streets -- Old San Juan -- is less than 10 minutes away. Check out the world's largest cruise ships dock in San Juan Bay 4 times a week and bring the city alive inside the Old City Walls. The world famous El Yunque Rainforest, and world-renowned Luquillo Beach are a quick 30-45 minute drive. Check out the mind-blowing glowing microorganisms by kayaking in the night at the BioLuminescent Bay in Fajardo. Or take a $3 ferry to the island Culebra which houses one of the Top 5 beaches in the world -- Flamenco Beach and do some amazing snorkeling. Or check out the more rugged and adventurous Vieques Island with its many many MANY beaches that allow you to literally escape to the ocean with no one around you! Travel to the West Coast, where world-class surfers practice in Rincón and check out a spectacular & unforgettable sunset view across the Atlantic Ocean while you drink La Pirata at Villa Cofresi in Rincón -- a famous drink with 7 liquors inside a coconut shell. All in all, there will be too many things for you to see and do in just one trip... but rest assured this will be the trip of a lifetime!

You really will have a magical, super safe, carefree and worry-free vacation at our beach condo.

Please note we pride in exceptional Hospitality and carry over 1200 5-star reviews across our other listings and other beach condo in the same building complex.

We look forward to hosting you!

We had a great short stay at Modern Escape. It is right on the beach and the beach is safe and beautiful. The sliding door to the balcony was broken and while the balcony was still accessible, it did seem dangerous. We did alert the owner on the first day, but we did not hear back from anyone. Other than that, the place was great. It is right on the main strip, and so on Saturday night it was pretty loud, but the owner does warn about this in the description and also supplied sound machines in each room. We did not find it to be a problem

I was excited to celebrate my 25th birthday with my family in our homeland for the first time. Let me be clear, this review is based solely on the incident that occurred and the host. This condo has great amenities. Minus the freezer, which took two days to completely freeze the ice. Furthermore, the electric stove took forever to use. Close to the beach and eateries. It is very busy all hours of the night in the touristy area, however, we expected that due to the location. On the second day of my stay, the shower door came off track and shattered all over me!!!! Needless to say, I was in complete shock with blood all over me from wounds and glass everywhere!!! We contacted the host immediately. He showed 0 compassion and hung up on us!!! Thank you to Veronica, the building security. She exhibited far more empathy for me and the situation than the host. The host never reached out to see if I was okay..NOTHING. Shame on you!! You should not be hosting AT ALL!!!

The Condo was exactly as shown and described, very nice and clean. The pool was excellent and having direct access to the beach was fantastic! You can rent an umbrella for the day for only $10!! The condo has beach chairs to use or you can rent a lounge chair for $4. The sound machines in the room really helped because it can be very noisy…but that was mentioned in the description. Also, for 1/2 our stay there only 1 of 4 of the elevators were in use as there was a water issue in the building. Communication with the host was Outstanding! We had one issue and reached out to the host and they were very quick to respond and was able to assist! Very great to work with!!

Had a great time in Isla Verde with my 21 year old daughter, her boyfriend and my husband. We stayed 1 week and wished it was 2!! I saw slot of reviews saying it was noisy but we where on12th floor facing the city and I’m a very light sleeper and wasn’t bothered by any noise except a couple sirens. Loved the condo and proximity to the beach and city where the clubs are open 24 hours by the way 😁 Ami was a great host very accommodating! Only issue we had was trying to get in the condo area at check in but after reading her instructions more carefully we figured it out😎 Would definitely recommend this condo to anyone old or young or somewhere in between!! Just a heads up, I was told the city noise is very loud in floors 1-7

The pros of our stay were the place itself. It’s roomy and clean. The location is very convenient and our host was more than helpful with what to do in the area. Uber and car rental are so easily accessible. You are literally on the beach. And the pool at night was perfect! Beach chairs and towels are provided! The people, on all of our trips, were amazing and friendly! The cons are, although convenient, it’s very noisy at night and the building itself is antiquated. The noise machine helped at night but even with that and earplugs, I had a difficult time sleeping. We were given one fob for 4 ppl to navigate an old iron turnstile to get access to the pool or beach. Carrying chairs was very difficult to do as you try to get through. The other hotels did not have that to get access. I would definitely return to Puerto Rico but stay at a different spot.
