The condo is absolutely beautiful. We felt as if we were at home. All amenities were there. We did go out to the the local Wal-Mart to get a few items before discovering that most of the items were already provided. Plenty of dishes, utensils, pots, pans, complimentary coffee, grill, games, beach accessories, towels, blankets, pillows. There will definitely be a future booking in 2025.

This was a fantastic property. Being located in Palmas Del Mar provided a sense of security. The property was spacious and allowed my family to spread out comfortably. The complex was right on the beach where the views to the ocean were magnificent. The pool available was a great option and we spent many an hour splashing around and sunbathing. There is easy access to surrounding supermarkets in Humacao, as well as a small convenience mart and multiple restaurants in Palmas Del Mar itself. Traveling to our various island excursions was easy as the property was located fairly centrally and far enough away from the large city to provide added peace and relaxation. The property manager was clear in all communications with me both before and during the stay. My family and I had an unforgettable vacation in Puerto Rico and it all started with our stay at A World Apart villa.

We returned to Palmas for the first time since 2015 and were so excited to find the area just as we remembered! The location of the condo was perfect for our group. We made use of all the spaces- wish we could’ve been on the upper deck more but unfortunately it rained off and on while we were there and left that space too wet. The condo had everything we needed. Check-in was easy other than confusion over the entry code. Check-out was super simple. Unfortunately we did lose power (apparently a scheduled outage) for most of the day one day but luckily we had planned a day trip and weren’t home for most of the time it was out. I would highly recommend the condo and location! We will definitely be back!

This property was ok but some things to know, both good and we wish we were aware of. Good. Beautiful beach location. Fantastic views. Beautiful grounds. Well stocked unit with spices and necessities. Palmas DelMar is easy to get around with lots of good restaurant options. A couple of our favorites were Pizzella and La Pescaderia. Don’t let the reviews detour you. The food at LaPescadaria is worth any wait and we didn’t have any service issues for any of our 3 visits there. Remember you are on island time. Be aware. While the listing notes construction starting in Feb 2023, it is still going on next door Feb 2024 and can start at 8AM and be very loud and disruptive. This unit itself is dated and in need of some key updates. The 3rd floor master is in desperate need of a new mattress. The shower is barely a trickle and wasn’t usable. We had to use the second floor bathroom in the 3rd room which was better but inconvenient. The upper lanai holds a lot of water and there was a constant drip to the lower lanai. Luckily the owners put a large umbrella which was open all the time so we weren’t getting dripped on. The downstairs bathroom had a leak in the wall which pooled up on the floor in front of the toilet. We contacted the property manager on the leaking issues and they were not very timely in their response. Maintenance came as was there less than 10 minutes, flushed the toilet 10 times and left. The leak continued and required a towel on the floor.

The agent personally provided good, polite, friendly service which we appreciated. Overall we felt the apartment/villa was good but definitely not great - especially the 3rd floor bedroom needed repairs and updating, and the twin bed 2nd floor had some issues. The glass top on a side table in the living room has a complete 'spider web' cracked surface. The construction nextdoor was listed in the description but we originally missed it; we'd strongly recommend that it be listed in bold at the top of the listing. Noisy in the a.m. We sent some pictures of the wear and tear that needs attention thru the app. Some of the kitchen pans could use a thorough cleaning or replacement. Lastly, we were disappointed that guests could not use the fitness center, tennis courts, etc. without additional fees. We had some great meals at restaurants, and side trips. Overall very friendly place.

We loved the property. it was as advertised. Everything in order. Plenty of room for our family. We didn’t cook in the property. We used the grass and pool area. Our biggest expectation is cleanliness and it was great. Communication and check-in was really easy.
