Beautiful property
This property is absolutely beautiful and the pictures don’t do it justice. It was very clean and had everything that we would need for a great stay. The golf cart provided is a nice touch but very outdated and needs work. We developed a flat tire while using it however the workers in the resort were extremely responsive and fixed it right away. Please book this place you will not be disappointed. We cannot wait to go back!

A wonderful escape
Family of four (two young adult children) stayed for 6 nights. We thought the second bedroom had two beds, however after talking to the management about this issue, they quickly brought over an air mattress and said they would fix the listing. Other than that, Marco Polo management was wonderful. Upon arrival they had stocked the refrigerator with milk, eggs, cheese, bread, juice, bananas, some beer and rum!! Such a nice touch from Tania! The resort is picture perfect!! We played tennis, paddle boarded, road bicycles and of course spent many hours at the ocean and walking along the beautiful and uncrowded beach!! Thoroughly enjoyed the use of the golf cart to get around the resort. Restaurants are all very good but be prepared to pay resort prices!! Highly recommend and can't wait to return!!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
The property was super clean and the descriptions were very accurate. Two items needed repair while we were there and management addressed them immediately and were very responsive and accommodating. We had a terrific vacation.

March 2022
The unit and grounds were lovely. We enjoyed the beautiful beach and the golf club’s pool — nicer than the St. Regis! The location was also relatively convenient to El Yunque and San Juan.
If you are considering whether to rent this unit, however, we would suggest asking the property manager what appliances are in working order. Once we arrived, we did not have much luck with responsiveness from the property manager. For example, upon arrival, we were told the dishwasher was broken. Not alone a big deal, but the unit is relatively expensive and the dishwasher had been broken for a while (even before our booking). Other guests had complained about it in the guest book for over 4 months. When we asked the property manager about an accommodation, we got no response. The coffee maker was also not working properly (it overflowed unless manually attended to), and the property manager never responded about that, either. We would also recommend replacing the MB mattress.

broken dishwasher
The dishwasher was not working, in a home we chose so we could prepare our own meals! Worse, the guestbook confirmed that this problem went back to at least mid-December 2021 (we were there in March 2022), and a call to the guest services manager confirmed that this was a known issue. Yet we were not informed, and discovered this only by trial and error, prior to discovering the comments about this from two sets of prior renters. Things break, but for this to have been ongoing for at least 3 months, and us given no information, and no $ consideration, is unethical.

Paradise Location, Great Apartment
This property is located on the grounds of St Regis Bahia Resort and its beautiful gold course. We have been coming to this location several times before and will be coming back again. The grounds are absolutely beautiful - tropical paradise, beach, pools, tennis, golf, and water park.
The apartment was very appointed and getting you the 1st row seat to watch the golfers on weekend's mornings from your terrace. The apartment was well cleaned (very important to us), everything was in working condition including the fully equipped kitchen. Importantly, rent includes gold cart to take you around the property - an awesome detail that our kids just loved!
Property managers were friendly and responsive, before and during our stay. Would like to thank them for the wonderful stay. And we will be coming back again!

Paradise in Paradise
We are a family of 4 that visited Villa Athena in late July 2019. First of all, the property management has excellent customer service and you should rent with them based on that alone! Not only did we need to stay earlier than anticipated, we encountered 2 cancelled flights and multiple delays along the way. They were very helpful and accomodating the entire time.
Villa Athena is exactly as described. Exceptionally clean, more than enough room and contained everything you'd need for your stay. They supply you with a few food items, which is more that any other vacation rental I've ever stayed in. We spent almost every day at the resort pool, using the golf cart to get back and forth between the property and the pool/beach area and we visited the wellness center most days, so definitely invest in the daily resort fee, it's totally worth it.
I honestly can not think of one bad thing about this place and would love to be able to stay again, hopefully next year!

Awesome Getaway
Villa Athena is beautiful inside and out. Everything inside was clean, neat, orderly and well stocked. We only stayed for 4 nights and wished we could have stayed for longer. It is an absolutely beautiful property with amazing views right outside the door and throughout the resort. We will definitely return! Thank you for your hospitality!

Wonderful in many ways!
Bahia Beach Resort is one of a kind; a little piece of heaven. In terms of the villa, it is just as wonderful. Beautiful, modern, chic, comfortable, neat and clean. Owners provided everything we needed to feel right at home... We particularly enjoyed the works of art all over the villa...amazing! Checking in and out was super easy! We'll be back!

Villa Athena is lovely
We had a great stay at the Villa at Bahia Beach. This is our second visit to the resort and it never fails to please- a quiet escape in the most beautiful surroundings. The villa itself is well-equipped and was perfect for our family of four. We prefer a location on the ground floor, which this villa is, situated on the turn. We will be back.

We loved staying at Villa Athena!
The villa is clean, comfortable, beautifully decorated and well located. Everything is new with a large kitchen, dining room and sitting area and lovely patio looking at the golf course. Both bedrooms and bathrooms are spacious and comfortable. The villa is a 3 minute golf cart to the beach club (or a 5 minute walk) which has stunning pools and access to a gorgeous 2 mile beach. We also used the fitness center and might have enjoyed tennis but we ran out of time. All the people working at the resort were nice and helpful. Annette and others who work for Marco Polo were incredibly welcoming and available when we arrived to show us around . We loved everything about the villa and the Resort.

Beautiful condo in Bahia Beach
We loved our stay at the Villa Athena on Bahia Beach! The condo is beautiful, clean and very well appointed. My husband and I were there for a quick warm weather getaway and our stay couldn't have been better. We loved the property and having the use of the golf cart to get around was very convenient. We also liked the fact that we could run within the resort and the wellness facility was well equipped. The beach is beautiful, and we took advantage of the pools, paddle boarding, etc. There is a grocery store within a ten minute drive of the condo and some great local restaurants.

fantastic
My wife and I stayed in the Villa Athena unit for 5 nights in early June. It is a very comfortable unit and suited our needs very well. The grounds to the resort were beautiful and the condo was well appointed. It is a two bedroom and didn't feel like too much space for just the two of us but would have been fine to have a few of the kids with us. Everything about the resort is upscale. The fitness facility was nice, the boathouse, the golf course, the beach club, the pool by the unit...it was truly one of my favorite vacations and I will definitely be back. I'm sure the colder months bring more traffic from tourists but the summer was very laid back, private, and cost effective which was just what we were looking for. I look forward to working with the folks from MPC again!

Magnificent,
Just had a wonderful weekend! The apartment’s location is perfect, bright mornings and shady afternoons, views are gorgeous, with partial ocean and mountain on opposite sides. Your can breathe peace and tranquility and that is exactly what we were expecting. Decor is high end, a welcomed surprise was the original art throughout, I would only add a couple of comfy lounge chairs in the living. The beach club is top notch and beautiful manicured grounds just outside the private terrace. Hurricane Maria’s pummeling is still evident in some areas of the resort, but the beach is still one of the BEST in Puerto Rico with very little sand errosion, perfect for a morning jog or late afternoon stroll. I highly recommend Villa Athena, staff was attentive, aware and available, communication was prompt and unintrusive. Courtesy refreshments and some food basics where also a very nice surprise. Can’t wait to escape to this little piece of heaven on Earth.

Wonderful Vacation
The property is beautiful! My family of four (2 children under 6) stayed at Villa Athena for almost a week and thoroughly enjoyed it. The villa was perfect and Annette with Marco Polo was so helpful and quick to respond with anything we had questions about. If/when we go back to Puerto Rico we will definitely stay here again!! Thanks Annette and John!

Excellent!
I guess the best review I can write is that this is the second time staying at this Villa, and I want it again for next year! The staff was very helpful, and everything was in order. The Villa was clean and supplied with some essentials that made our stay a 5 Star stay. I recommend the Villa for anyone looking for a two bedroom place. It is conveniently located and tranquil. And the set up superb. Thanks!

Gorgeous family getaway
This is a five star experience, a beautiful property packed with fun activities for every member of your family. From golf, tennis and swimming to nature walks, paddle boarding, secluded beautiful beach access and more. There is no need to go offsite, this place has it all. the grounds are maintained beautifully and a range of toys from bikes, boogie boards, sand toys and more are all provided for as a part of the resort fee. I do recommend a rental car to allow for grocery runs and any excursions to rain forest etc. Cabs are somewhat unreliable due to the more remote location. A golf cart is provided to make getting around the expansive resort property fun and efficient. Accomodations were well appointed, clean and tucked into beautiful greenery. Every morning we enjoyed the covered patio. The property owners were extremely responsive and helpful - outstanding customer service. I highly recommend this place - you will not regret!
