Was such a great little villa and at a great location, steps away from the beautiful ocean. John the owner was so nice, helpful and always there when we needed anything. We had a great time in PR and would definitely come and stay here again. Thank you Joh for sharing your home with us.

This was my first time ever booking a vrbo and our first time in Puerto Rico. John completely made us feel at home and gave us tips to make our stay even better. Super easy to communicate with him. Well equipped kitchen and we had all the towels we needed for oir beach vacation, even beach chairs. The AC was perrrrfect. I would stay here again without hesitation! Super close to the beach too!

This property offers the best of both worlds. You stay in urban San Juan, with Carolina beaches and restaurants steps away. The airport is 10 minutes away, and the Old City is 25 minutes away. On the other hand, you stay in a beautiful house with ocean views that feel like a private, secluded villa. A new deck is awesome! We had our breakfast with an ocean view under palm trees.
It was our third time staying with John. Hands down, he is the best host I've stayed with! His response was almost immediate, and he was the most accommodating host I stayed with.
4.7
We had an incredible stay. John was very attentive to any needs we had. He gave excellent recommendations and he lives on site so is readily available. There were lots of beach toys and some chairs available for use. The ocean is literally across the street and a short walk along the shore gets you to a safer swimming area. Some reviews talk about it being outdated but I would disagree. It’s not a luxury 5 star resort, it’s a nice Puerto Rican apartment in walking distance to many great restaurants and coffee shops! We will 100% consider coming back in the future!

For our 3rd trip to San Juan, this has by far been the best place we have stayed. The apartment was clean and well stocked with everything we needed. The host is super friendly and ready with suggestions. And you can’t beat the location.

John was extremely friendly, helpful, and accommodating he lives at the property, which is nice should you need anything.
The property was much as expected from the picture's it is very dated. The mattresses are old and the pillows in the 2nd bedroom were very uncomfortable, the towels provided are not the best and the hand towels and tea towels need to be replaced.
It was good to have beach towels and the use of beach chairs.
The location is what is appealing especially for the price.
There is a great place to sit and watch the waves and drink coffee in the morning and close to a cove to safely swim. if you want to sit on the beach on rental sun loungers that requires you walk either the main road or negotiate the rocks at the cove and follow the beach about 20 mins. The beaches are beautiful.
It is a safe location with many restaurants and is very convenient for the airport.
All in all, we had a pleasant stay and with a few updates it would greatly improve that experience.

We had a fun time in PR. The property was clean. Needs updating on furniture/mattresses. John was a great host and makes himself easily available!

From the minute that we arrived we were made to feel extreme welcome. The apartment is perfect with the two bedrooms and additional communal space for relaxing. Everything we could have needed was provided in the kitchen and an assortment of spare toiletries showed a generous nature that began with the host had extended to previous people that had stayed.
Advice was given when sought, and was invaluable in seeing beyond the immediate tourist side of PR. There was an obvious pride and love of PR that radiated from the host, making the stay warm, welcoming and unique. A huge thank you, we really hope we can go back again someday !

My very first trip to Puerto Rico was the best trip ever, the location was great! the apartment was very cozy a home away from home. I felt safe and secure and the Host Mr. Lombardo was the best, he made us feel welcomed, he gave us excellent tips on where to eat and visit. He was very knowledgeable and very respectful. Even through this last storm Mr. Lombardo whipped into action to make sure we were not inconvenienced or affected by tropical storm Fiona. It was due to his amazing pre planning as stated in the apt description of having backup power. He kept us informed and safe, it was like a oasis totally oblivious of the effects that was reported on the storm by the news. I would totally stay at any of Mr. Lombardo's properties, and recommend that if you are looking for someplace safe and clean and comfortable enough to be home. Book with Mr. Lombardo you'll have the best time! I've been home for 2 days and when anyone asks about my trip I tell them Mr. Lombardo's properties are the way to go. and oh wait it's AFFORDABLE!

The place its moldy,dirtyand the Bbq still had last tenant burned food. We had to wash the sheets before using the beds. The kitchen and bathroom had pest problems, the bed in first room has a deep whole in the center. The Cabinet of board games has a faul smell. We had to desinfect everything with bleach and desinfectant spray. I took pictures of all in details, if anyone need to see what I experienced. I also experience a verbal racial comment concerning my son. It was really out of taste, completely inappropriate. I wanted to leave on arrival but no one understands when you have to deal with family that is mentally challenged, this ordeal was hard, too bad people can only see physical disabilities. A last minute change of place was impossible since you are requiered to pay before travel in full. Never again.

We enjoyed our stay at this property. The host was kind and had valuable suggestions on traveling the island. Our vacation would not have been as enjoyable without John’s suggestions. Nice walk to multiple beaches. Short drive to Old San Juan and piñones.

The apartment was adorable and is very well kept. John was very helpful and nice too. If we had questions or needed anything he was available to be contacted. The apartment itself was perfect for us and my dad who is handicapped (in a wheelchair). The ocean is within seconds of a walk and everything else is extremely close. It’s location has a little bit of everything for everybody that can be walked to, as well.
If driving, there are a lot of activities within minutes is the apartment too. My family and I were very happy with it and will definitely be coming back again to stay, if John gives us the opportunity. We were treated like family and not just tenants which made our experience in Puerto Rico that much more amazing.
If your looking for a place to stay, I highly recommend this apartment.

Another great stay!
This is our first time staying at Johns downstairs property. We stayed at the upstairs property on our last visit. We enjoyed this one just as much as the last. The patio was a perfect area to unwind after a long day. There was an island wide power outage for the first 48 hours of our trip, but this property had solar power so we experienced little inconvenience. The skate park and botanical garden next door were a great place to stroll around in. The swimming cove just down from the house was perfect. The wind made for extremely rough ocean conditions, but the area behind the rocks was calm and gave the kids some beach time. The music from the near by club was a little loud on Sunday night, but that’s no fault of the property owner. Thought I would mention it just in case you have family members or children that might frown upon “city noises”. Would definitely stay here again.

John Is such a gracious host, his place is so well situated in San Juan. Right in front of the ocean and very close to many entertainment areas. Although you won’t see the sea from inside this unit you will most definitely enjoy the soundtrack of the ocean during your stay. I highly recommend this property for the congenial experience as well as the great location! Rafael is also worth noting; he provided an exceptional experience during my stay and was very accommodating. I plan to go back!

Only a few issues for us. The bed in one room was very old and should be replaced. There was no dishwasher which if a large group can be missed. Nice location to the beach. I would stay again.

Nice local spot
This was a wonderful spot to call home in Puerto Rico. So close to the beach you can hear the waves crashing! We were in the lower room so we didn't have a view but it was really fine! A short walk to a big golden beach and a sweet smaller sea-walled area closer, perfect for hours of relaxation. Walk to the breakfast Bistro, really good restaurants like Ferrari.... easy & great would go again in a heartbeat!
The hosts are perfect had everything and went out of their way to accommodate! Thank You John!

Perfect vacation rental in San Juan.
We had an excellent experience with our vacation rental. During these uneasy COVID times, John made everything possible to make us feel comfortable, safe, and welcomed. I was impressed by how seriously Puerto Ricans take mask and social distancing rules, this is not a political or conspiracy issue here like it is on the mainland, EVERYONE takes it seriously, which makes you feel comfortable, if you can say that in today's world. John's apartment was very clean and a hand sanitizer was provided to us as we arrived. There is everything you can expect from the apartment rental and more - John is there ready to help with any issues on the minute's notice. This apartment on the first floor has convenient access, especially if you have small kids and a covered indoor area with hammock and loungers has plenty of space to play or relax away from direct sun. This is an ideal place if you rent a car, you will have your own parking spot on the private driveway of the gated street, which made me feel safe. Renting a car is the best way to see Puerto Rico, it's also safer during COVID than public transport or Uber, we got ours from Chalrie's down the street. Small beach steps away from the villa is ideal for the morning dip. Plenty of good restaurants within walking distance and old San Juan is 15 minutes away driving, supermarket is 5 minutes driving. I love the place and would definitely come back, I miss Puerto Rico already.

Dykstra Puerto Rico Vacation
We really enjoyed staying at Punta Las Marias. It is located near a very nice beach, was within walking distance of groceries and restaurants, and was clean and well-kept. We also felt safe there during the 2020 earthquakes. We definitely stay here again!

Stay Here!!!!!!
When we arrived John met us at the gate. We met Lola, his dog. She was so friendly and warm. He was very nice and our family loved him! He gave us great suggestions as far as food and places to visit. Many places to eat close by and a supermarket was not that far either. The beach was about 5 minutes away, walking distance and not crowded. It was great.
We would definitely stay here again and I recommend this place to anyone who is visiting PR.

My new favorite place to visit
This was my first trip to Puerto Rico and I was not disappointed. I celebrated my 50th birthday with friends and family. John was very nice and made great suggestions. The location was perfect and the apartment was just what we needed. We walked to several restaurants nearby, and the beach was literally right there. Most of all I think I found my happy place and the nicest people on earth. We were at dinner on my birthday and the entire restaurant sang happy birthday to me and a couple nearby stopped by our table to thank us for supporting Puert Rico. I am definitely on team Puerto Rico and I plan on spreading the word. I hope to return again next year.
