The view from our 17th floor balcony was amazing! The host was also amazing. I messaged her many times over the course of several months with questions and she always promptly replied!

Location is beach front and views were unbeatable. Security goes above and beyond. Gated community. Clean and comfortable bed. Everything you’d need in kitchen is provided and then some. Host was prompt in communication. Beach chairs, coolers, umbrellas all there for use at beach .

Bathroom needs a thorough cleaning and updating . A Fresh coat of paint throughout would make a major improvement .

This condo met our expectations perfectly for an ocean front stay in Puerto Rico. The unspoiled ocean view from the balcony is simply spectacular. Luquillo is a wonderful area, and we were impressed that even in the summer, the beach in front of the condo was never packed. It almost felt like a private beach. My husband and I stayed in the bedroom and our son used the futon. It was plenty comfortable for the three of us. We did not do any cooking, but did use the fridge to store items for breakfast and picnic lunches so it was great to have that and the coolers available. We also loved that pretty much everything we wanted to do was within a 15 minute drive. We did spend a day in San Juan, which is only about 30-40 mins. away. It's a lovely area.

Really the only drawbacks to the unit are the location of the AC units. It's great that the unit has air conditioning. (I'm 100-percent certain without it, in the Puerto Rico summer, you'd be miserable.) But the condensers for the AC take up a pretty good chunk of the balcony and they put off a LOT of heat. So it makes sitting out on the balcony table almost unbearable during the day. The only time we could really enjoy sitting out there was first thing in the morning when it was cool enough to shut off the ACs and enjoy a sunrise, and a couple times late night. The only other downsides were no exhaust fan in the bathroom. With only one restroom, if someone does a #2, let's just say it takes a while to clear it out even with some air freshener spray. Second, there really were not enough towels provided, especially given that there is no on-site laundry in the condo itself or in the building. In a beach town, you're going to pretty much be using 2 towels a day per person--one for the beach and one to shower with. You need to air out the sandy beach towels on the balcony while you shower. We were constantly drying and reusing the towels for the three of us. If you had four or five people, there would definitely not be enough towels to go around.

My favorite thing about Alvy’s property would probably be what everyone else says… the view! Absolutely stunning. I also loved that she had things for us to use at the beach, chairs, coolers, and umbrella etc. That extra touch was so appreciated. Also, Alvy’s communication, she was awesome about getting with us and getting back to us with loads of info, that is what makes her one of the best hosts. This wasn’t in Alvy’s condo but at the bottom of the condos themselves, there was a huge library with books, movies and games. I am an avid reader so I thought this was so cool!

I couldn’t find anything I didn’t like. We had a great experience from great communication before our trip, check in, the awesome staff that worked at the condos, the location, all the way to check out.

Let me tell you a little bit of this property, you go to the balcony and you have this beautiful view then you go out to the hallway and you got the view from the Rainforest El Yunque also when you ate at the room at night you can hear the sound of the waves. what else you can ask for? also Alvy was very professional and very polite thank you for make this vacation amazing

Love that it was located on with easy access to the Beach!

That it wasn’t really in walking distance of attractions!

the location and accessibility to pool and beach, comodidad del apartamento y todo los utensils en especial para el bebé, la limpieza

la bañera necesita un remake está un poco outdated

The security guards at the front gate and inside the lobby were all very helpful and friendly. The unit keys were left inside the unit, which was unlocked. We had never encountered a unit that had a sliding barred door on the outside, but we got used to it. We were also able to follow the instructions of the Landlord/owner with the outside coded lock box, should the unit have been found locked. The host/owner was very responsive to our questions. Many items left in the kitchen were very useful during our stay, such as the large refrigerator with ice maker, toaster oven, coffe maker and microwave. The general theme of the unit (sea shore) was attractive and personalized. Next time we visit Puerto Rico, we would definitely stay longer in this unit, so we can see more of the local attractions.

Maybe better soundproofing, to prevent noisy music from detracting from our leisure activities?
