fantastic location and helpful owner

This home is in a fantastic location. If you are looking for peace and quiet, close to nature and access to the beach this is the place. The owner and property manager were easy to reach and very responsive. Check in was easy. If you stay here make sure to go to Marejadas (right outside the entrance) for breakfast or brunch and Daniel's for dinner.

Not quite as described

The pool is not on the property...and when you get to the rental, there are two different postings about it. One says enjoy the pool dawn to dusk and another Bolder print says pool from 10am to 7pm. I used the pool very little and it was one of the main accommodations I wanted. I enjoy early mornings and night swimming. I am glad that I didnt bring the 3 teenagers I had intended, as i wanted them to be able to play and the area has all older people who probably wouldn't appreciate yelping teens. You have to haul a kayak a quite a ways through the trees to use it..the area right behind the house actually had what looked like human feces floating in it. The grill had no propane..and if there's an outdoor shower..There's no direction to find it, the door to the carport from the inside appears to be sealed. The house is tidy. Mid 80s style, I found a plastic chair to put in the living room, as the furniture is fabric..with wet suit on. It was conveniently located. I'd recommend for over 50, who aren't really pool people. The beach is stunning..but strong current..also not good for the youth..or frail. The app isn't allowing for photos to be uploaded.

Nice location near the beach

The property manage sent driving directions early, but not the directions/code to get into the property. Those were sent the day of travel, but we traveled from 2AM until 10P, so we didn’t get them. The owner was very responsive when I called. He connected me with the manager & eventually she let us in, explained the property & addressed our questions. The next day some of our group left. 2 hours later the property’s electricity was turned off. (Our member at the house was making dinner.) After a quick text, it was turned back on. The home is a block from a very lovely beach and a nice hiking area. There are restaurants within walking distance. It is convenient to shopping/groceries & the freeway.

Clean, quiet, private. Sylvia was very easy to deal with. The location is fabulous. A short walk to a quiet pristine beach. Numerous local restaurants with awesome Puerto Rican cuisine within a short drive. Would love to stay again.

Excellent accommodations

The property was very well taken care of and so much to do and see within walking distance. Take the paddle over to monkey island and make sure you walk to the nature preserve from the house. Only complaint would be the comfort of the beds, should consider upgrading mattresses.

Great family vacation

We really enjoyed staying at this property. The house had all we needed! It was a bit different than our impression from the listing as it was in a subdivision with houses right next to it on both sides. Not that this was so bad but for some reason I had thought it was gonna be a bit more secluded. My children really enjoyed the pool and my wife and I enjoyed drinking coffee in the mornings under the gazebo in the backyard and walking down to the beach and watching the sunrise over the bay. The house keeper was very easy to message and responded quickly for the things we needed.

Def for nature lovers. I liked the back yard more than the rest of the place.

The owner was super nice and ready to accommodate - didn’t have a hair dryer - so bring your own if that’s important. It’s kind of reminiscent of indoor camping. We didn’t use the kayaks we drove to the rainforest instead. I’d say if you want an authentic trip and feel for the southeast side of PR it’s a good first stop. There’s a Walmart close by and a few local little bars.

Cute vacation home

The vacation home met our expectations. There was plenty of space for two adults, one 18-year-old, and two children to comfortably sleep and hang out. The air conditioning was powerful enough to combat the Puerto Rican heat and we were very comfortable. The property was inviting and the pool, once it was topped off to combat evaporation and we bought a skimmer to remove the mosquitoes each morning, was a good size and very enjoyable. The outdoor sitting area overlooking the edge of the nature preserve was lovely, and a great place to observe the large iguana who came out to feed on the mangoes and breadfruit that fell from the trees in the yard. 10am seemed to be iguana breakfast time. For our own meals, there was a delicious restaurant, Las Olas, right outside the main gate that we loved.

Paradise

Our stay was wonderful, it was just myself and my 16 year old son. My son as many teenagers was less into activities and more into hanging out at the house relaxing. The home itself is quite spacious, we wanted a pool and the nature trails and therefore went bigger than needed, this home could easily fit a much larger family. The house was clean, quite comfortable, had everything we needed, the check in process was very easy. I stayed in touch with Sylvia here and there with questions and she was amazing, always sure to respond promptly. The pool was very refreshing on those hot days after wandering around the trails behind the property. The nearby reserve is literally your backyard. I spent a great deal of time hanging out with the lizards and taking photos of all the beauty around me. This is the first vacation in a long time that I felt truly relaxed and this was in big part this beautiful home. Thank you so much for having us!

Nice stay, but with some disappointments...

We were very excited about our stay and, for the most part, it was terrific. The house and property is spacious. We were a smaller group but the property was suitable for much larger groups. Clean, quiet, safe gated community was just what we were looking for and made us feel very comfortable and relaxed. The pool provided an awesome and tranquil escape on some very hot days in July. Lots of great cuisine and nature-lover activities within a short drive away. Great a/c and excellent Wi-Fi. Communications with the concierge Sylvia was excellent. Unfortunately, though, there were some disappointments as well. The interior was superficially clean on the surface but in need of a deep-cleaning. Property and fixtures, including mattresses, sofa cushions, etc were much more dated, stained, and worn than indicated in the pictures. Also, while the property description is technically accurate, as others have noted the property and backyard border a muddy swampy area and does not provide access to the Reserve itself, though close by and accessible 9-5 daily from outside of the community. The private community beach is also close but still a 15-20 minute walk through the community to get to. In general, it's a peaceful and tranquil choice for a larger group looking for a pool, peaceful environment, and relatively close access to a reserve, "Cast A Way" type community beach, and proximity to good cuisine.

Nature lovers paradise!

We had a wonderful time. The house was perfect for us. The air conditioning was awesome after long days in the sun. We would sit at the table each night playing cards or monopoly before going to bed. Plenty of out door seating. Having the grill was very nice for dinners. The pool was fun and relaxing. Being from Indiana when we saw lizards or iguanas in the yard we would all run for our cameras every time. I spent every morning sitting on the patio drinking coffee watching the birds and turtles in the lagoon. There is a number of restaurants in the area all with great food. The beech was fun for walks and trying to catch the little crabs that scurry around the rocks. We spent a lot of time in Fajardo, which is just a short drive. This is where we walked the rainforest and swam in the clear and very warm river. There are also great beaches for snorkeling and boogie boarding. We will definitely be back. Thanks Julius!

Disappointed

My family and I enjoyed PR, but were overall disappointed w the property. Beds were very uncomfortable, not enough bed linens- I actually had to go purchase extra blankets and then leave them behind because of suitcase room! We were expected to wash all the dishes, but not given adequate dish soap or papertowels. Also had to purchase more toilet paper and paper towels- things that should have been supplied. Working outlets were hard to find, the yard had dog poo and a broken fence that ultimately fell down during our stay. We made the best of our stay, and appreciated the kayak availability- but more negatives than positives for the money I spent.

Great for Extended family

This house was great for our extended family of 8 adults and 3 children, ages three and under. It was just as pictured, older but exceptionally clean, and the beach REALLY is a short walk. If you want the feel of a resort, driving a golf cart to the beach, sharing a pool with strangers after you've carried all your gear down an elevator, this is NOT the place for you. But if you want a feel of the island, kayaks and beach gear at your disposal in the garage ( and not rented be the 1/2 hour), and a crystal clear pool just steps from the back door and surrounded by a nature preserve ( beware of ant bites) then this IS for you. We had only 2 problems : 1) openers/keys -we had 3 rental cars and needed a second gate opener which Nancy, the terrific concierge, quickly resolved, and we made 2 more sets of keys and 2) internet service via an extender did not work. Nancy came by and checked it, but it was a more technical problem than just resetting. Enjoy your stay!

Quiet and peaceful

My family stayed for a week and we enjoyed our stay. The house was exactly as described on the interior and there was plenty of room for our 8 person family which included my elderly parents, grown children, and teenage grands. The backyard was lovely and the pool was a private oasis. The hosts responded to most questions immediately. We enjoyed the backyard gazebo and were surprised that there were very few flying insects to bother anyone. The gated community was quiet and we enjoyed fabulous food at the restaurants near the community and in nearby Punta Santiago. Many in our hroup and crabbed at the pier, swam in the natural pool at El Yunque, and walked the trails at the nature reserve. Lovely. However, i was disappointed and had to read the description of the home multiple times to see where i misunderstood. The home is near a private beach, but not on the beach, nor 100 steps away. You drive to the end of the street and down a block to the path that leads to the beach. The nature reserve is 3200 acres, but the house borders a non accessible swampy area, to access the reserve, you exit the community and drive 5 minutes down the road. Everything was very close, but i thought it was more walking distance from the home. Also, I was told the home was handicapped accessible and all on one level. There are stairs to the front door and two ledges down from the front entrance. Handicapped access was walking through the carport to the back door.

This was NOT a nice rental.

I have many photographs to show that the posted photos are deceptive. Mildew on awnings--they were black and rotting. Mildew on life preserver for 3 foot deep above ground pool--unsuitable for laps Mildew on outdoor furniture Stains on furniture in living areas...had to put towels down to sit to feel comfortable. Rust stained lamp bases...bugs in the light fixtures... This is not how I live nor how I like to vacation. Owner offered me money to not discuss this further with him or anyone else--I did not take it. It was insulting. I paid (in full) more than I would have to stay in a nice hotel during the lowest season. I have over a dozen photographs that speak volumes.

Great base for extended family to explore PR

Wonderful! Subdivision with private beach - but don't be scared by word subdivision - this was the best property in it, back yard abuts nature preserve; it didn't feel like there were neighbors at all. All we heard was birds and frogs and coquis surrounding us. Walk 3 minutes to private beach (check rip tide warnings before getting in), and if you walk 3 minutes along the beach you get to walking/running trails inside nature preserve. There was never anybody else on the beach when we were there (2nd week of April). Two ocean kayaks provided (but you'll want strong hands to haul them down to the ocean). Kitchen adequately stocked; nice pans, some basic spices. Kids' bedroom has 4 beds (looks like 3 in picture but there's a trundle.) We had plenty of space for two couples with two kids each; never felt crowded. Very clean; concierge very responsive. Air conditioning adequately powerful but generally we chose not to run it. Kids loved the pool. Endless rounds of Marco Polo were played while adults relaxed. Room for one car in garage but no concerns about street parking for 2nd car (for this or any other lodging outside of San Juan you will need rental car).

A great place in a good location

This was a great choice for our first ever trip to PR. Humacao is a little off the beaten path yet convenient to everything — San Juan, El Yunque, beaches at Loquillo, etc. The house was clean, comfortable, and well equipped. Great, private yard, pool, deck and covered patio overlooking the wildlife preserve. Observed numerous bird species in the yard, and in the water just beyond. Short walk to the beach — which, while beautiful, was very natural and ungroomed. Lots of seaweed, drift wood, etc, very little trash. You can easily walk down the beach and into the Humacao Preserve, including a short climb up to El Morillo for spectacular views. The owners local restaurant recommendations were spot on, including Brisas Del Mar in Punta Santiago. If you weren’t in the mood for real local food, you can turn left and drive to an area with typical American restaurants closer to Humacao. Check in process was a little disjointed but I largely attribute that to our slightly early arrival. As the listing notes, this is not a resort — it’s in a real part of PR, and some of the homes in the neighborhood seem to be in disrepair or are still recovering from recent hurricanes. It is safe and secure — but like much of the area that is due people taking precautions (bars on windows, gates, etc.) As far as physical safety, we never felt threatened in any way — my wife walked to the beach on her own at night, and was perfectly safe. Will absolutely consider again if we go back to PR.

Family Vacation

Thank you for a wonderful experience. Traveling with my wife, 2 girls 9,11 and a 2yr old I was somewhat apprehensive with the area. However, I guess it depends on persons frame of reference. We quickly realized the area is safe, very quiet, and peaceful. The beach is about a 5 minute walk at most. We decided to be lazy and drive the rental car the 1/4 mile since we were on vacation. Pathetic I know but keep in mind we do have a toddler which made it much easier for us. It is for all intent a purpose, deserted. I mean nobody but our family was there. The water is clean, calm and shallow for about 30 feet out. Unlike a resort beach, the sea grass brought in from the tides is not removed by workers each morning. However, it does provide a nice hiding place for crabs and such to make their homes and our kids got a thrill catching and releasing them back into nature. The back yard of the home abuts the nature preserve. Take take time to lay in one of the hammocks and listen to the soothing sounds of nature. It is hypnotic. Our 2 year old was filled with wild wonder with all the calls, sounds and songs coming from the variety of birds, frogs, lizards and other things in the back yard and nearby preserve. He was constantly asking, "What's that noise" or "What's that thing". The pool was also a big hit. The owner had a new life vest for our 2 year old to use. The girls and I made a up a synchronized swimming routine my wife filmed which was hilarious to do and see. The house is modest yet roomy. The air conditioning units are excellent and cool the house. Definitely do the rain forest EARLY, give at least 3 hours. Skip the welcome center, $4/adult admission go directly to the water fall. We got there right @ 9AM and nobody was there. By the time we left there was no place to park. Stop at the Tower, great views. Find the Sleeping Giant from the tower. We stopped by Loquillo beach(twice) on the way back which is very nice. Old San Juan is a must. Leave after 9:30A to avoid traffic. We went twice and loved it. The fort and castle provide cool photo ops as do the colors of Old San Juan. You can make a picnic at the fort and fly a kite or people watch. Kayak in the nature preserve but go early, it fills quickly. Walk the trails early. Overall, if you enjoy nature and privacy this is a great spot as a home base. If you want nightlife and manicured beaches, you might be disappointed.

Terrible!! Left after 1 night. Poorly maintained, dangerous wiring, dirty, AC doesn't cool enough.

We booked this home 5 month prior to our vacation and were really excited about staying there. Unfortunately when we got there we found the house to be poorly maintained with broken outlets, bare wires coming from the wall, rusty screws or nails protruding from the shower stall, windows in both bathrooms that don't close; it was not a safe environment. The pictures of the backyard canal are deceiving. It is #1 completely gated off w/ no entrance. #2 the dock is broken and shoved into tree's. The beach down the street is very dirty. The house was also dirty. Stained bedding with only 1 bed out of 4 even having a sheet...the rest just had a stained mattress pads, mismatched pillowcases, and a comforter. Mildew, dirt, and bugs everywhere in the house. We were trying to accept that this is what we were going to have to make work for the vacation we work and save all year for... but then we realized that the AC was not ever going to cool off the house. Possibly because of the windows that don't close, the huge gap around the door...I really don't know. Julian keeps telling me how many BTU's of AC it has...but I plain don't care because it doesn't matter if it doesn't keep the house cool! I did cook dinner in there after I clean the kitchen, but that is why we stay in a home rather than a hotel. We weren't willing to eat out every meal with 3 teenagers to MAYBE have it cool enough to be able to sleep when we payed a lot of money to stay there! So we left after one night. Julian & Nancy are New Yorkers and very nice until you have a problem; then that changes. I have had to file a case with Homeaway to try to get our money back b/c they have not even refunded our security dep. after 18 days.. much less the 6 days that we did not stay at the home that would be right. They ruined the first day & a half of our 7 day vacation. I have pictures documenting everything that I have reported in this statement for anyone that would like them. Trust me you DO NOT want to stay there! We ended up moving to an amazing condo in Luquillo that was properly maintained, clean, with a giant private roof top terrace right on the ocean for $60 less a night than we had paid Julian for this gross hole. In 8yrs of renting homes on HomeAway and VRBO; this is our 1st experience with a bad home and owner. Who knows how long we will have to fight to get our money back :/ It's such a nightmare. Don't discredit negative reviews like I did.

Older Concrete Home

You are staying at a concrete home as most of the homes are in Puerto Rico. It is in a gated community about 100yds from Punta Santiago beach. Beautiful subdivision. This house backs up to a nature reserve(As we call it in South MS, a swamp). It has water in it that is extremely muddy.(We did stay in July, so I don't know what the water looks like at other times of the year). We had only 5 people in the house but It can easily sleep 10 people. The home needs a little TLC but was perfect for us. Walmart is about 4 or 5 miles away. From this location you can easily travel to the mountains or other local beaches. The host was very attentive to what ever we needed.. Now the most important question is, Would I stay there again? Yes would love to stay there again and probably will try in the future

Good a/c, Wi-Fi & warm water

Overall, we had a good stay. I feel like the property description is a bit inaccurate. The pool is shared with the property owner next door and can only be used between sunrise and sunset. The laundry facilities are actually at the owners home, which is next-door, and can only be used between sunrise and sunset. That is a bit difficult when a family of six is on vacation and has activities during the daytime hours. I was very disappointed about not having access to laundry facilities when I needed them. The property is older, but was clean with good AC, Wi-Fi, and plenty of warm water. We were very grateful for that. The host was helpful and attentive to our needs.

Image de profil de l’hôte
I'm a retired educator, marine biologist and business owner of an outdoor recreational company that exposes our clients to the Natural Wonders of nature through boating, camping, and hiking. In addition, I rent properties in areas so ecologically significant, that government agencies protect the region where they are located. (A nature lovers paradise). I care about the Planet and the living things that inhabit it. I service my clients as they are family, wanting their experiences at our locations to be filled with fond memories, lasting knowledge and an appreciation of the environment and culture that surrounds them.

Pourquoi avoir choisi cet hébergement ?

To me my property and adjacent surroundings represent the natural tropical beauty of a Caribbean Island, a "Cast-A-Way" beach with 3500 Acres of lagoons and a wildlife habitat as my back yard. NO OTHER PROPERTY IN VILLA PALMIRA HAD THAT.

Quels sont les atouts de cet hébergement ?

Where else could one kayak through a tropical jungle, or from the beach to great fishing, bird watching, historical sites and an Island filled with monkeys? PBS thought is unique when it was rented for a PBS Nature Series special.
