The condo was perfect for our family of 6. The kitchen is well stocked and across the street from a grocery store. My kids really enjoyed the pool, tennis courts, and basketball courts. And the location -- 5 minutes from Luquillo Beach, 15 to El Yunque, and easy access to the highway. Plus, you can't beat the view of the beach from the patio!
We had a wonderful trip and our host was very attentive and helped us find places to enjoy locally. We lost power hours before leaving and the host immediately tried to assist when we determined the flashlight on premises was faulty. Fortunately the power came back on quickly and we were worried for naught. I would recommend this property. Itâs not overly fancy but it is a great spot, safe, clean and near to all the attractions. One thing to make sure to note, there is only AC in the bedrooms, and it can get warm in the living room/kitchen, but the fans help to circulate the air some of you leave the bedroom doors open.
A tiny slice of heaven right on the beach. Perfect location for our family holiday. The pool, basketball and tennis courts we my kids favorite. I loved drinking coffee watching the sun rise. Will definitely recommend
We had a wonderful stay! Our view was gorgeous and our hosts Miriam and her husband were the most helpful with everything from recommendations on restaurants to excursions-the nicest people!!!If we go back to Puerto Rico would definitely stay there again!!!
We had a great time with the ocean so close by and the views from the penthouse - incredible! It was very clean and nicely decorated. Weâll definitely be back!
Miriam was so easy to work with! When the power went out in PR she was very communicative and thoughtful. Her condo is in a great location if youâre planning to explore. 10 minutes to El Yunque, 45 minutes into Old San Juan. Lots of great restaurants down the street and 15 mins from Ceiba ferry.
I love this side of the island. Luquillo Beach is my favorite and this was central to other hot tourists sites like El Yunque, Old San Juan and more. The host was very easy to get a hold of, helpful and responsive. Would stay again.
This was a perfect location to all the activities and more that we had planned for our vacation. The actual space was perfect for cooking in and eating out...all the amenities of home, clean and tidy. Miriam was incredibly kind, responsive and informative.
We had a lovely relaxing vacation from winter at the beautiful Playa Azul!l penthouse apartment!
The accommodation had everything we needed to enjoy all the amenities and views of Playa Azul. We got plenty of exercise on our daily walks along the beautiful beaches of Luquillo. Host were quick to respond and to assist with all our needs. I look forward to another winter break!
You can't beat this location for all the good things Puerto Rico has to offer. We enyoyed the beaches, rain forest and a day trip to Culebra. Two days were spent exploring Old San Juan's history and cuisine.
This penthouse condo is not fancy, but has plenty of space and all the conveniences, except wifi. We particularly liked the balcony view from the of the ocean in one direction and the rain forest in the other. We'd choose this
condo again.
The place was so close to the beach and pool both accessible until 7 pm from a private gate. The apartment was so warm and welcoming. The sunrise and sunset were a thing of beauty right from your balcony. Every town was pretty accessible from we were. The amount of beauty and nature that surround you daily is truly amazing.
My host was wonderful, great communication. Hopefully do this again soon
I couldn't have asked for a better location to stay for my first visit to the island in 47 years! The layout of the place was as advertised. The sweeping views from the penthouse were gorgeous, the place was clean and well-maintained although some of the appliances need to be replaced. Regardless, it's a minor inconvenience as I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this place as I plan to return next year and I plan to stay at this location once again!
This condo was a perfect location for us. We stayed two weeks and didn't have a car. Everything we wanted was within walking distance: grocery, drug store, American fast food, and Puerto Rican restaurants. Every day we spent time at the beach...sand and palm trees. We ate on the balcony and watched the waves. The condo is well stocked with beach gear. Miriam was the perfect host, although we didn't need anything! We certainly hope to return. Thank you, Miriam!
This was a PERFECT place to stay in Luquillo. We had our entire family stay in this 2 bedroom apartment and the 3 bedroom apartment next door. This apartment has been beautifully updated with modern bathrooms and a clean, cool kitchen. The view of the ocean is amazing, the living/dining room is roomy. The beds were very comfortable. The entire apartment was immaculate. We highly recommend visiting El Yunique and finding the incredible swimming holes, as well as floating on the most perfect ocean waves in world. Only 40 minutes from the airport, Playa Azul's beach is virtually empty of people- giving you a quiet, peaceful experience. We highly recommend this apartment for your stay.
We stayed at the condo for 5 nights during Christmas. The condo was wonderful to come back to after spending the days out exploring. It is cleaned, organized and very well equipped. Miriam was quick to respond to any questions that I had before and during the stay. The condo is gated and secured. The location is excellent and on our most favorite beach, Luquillo. We fell in love with Puerto Rico, its culture, history, and especiallyâŠthe people. Everyone we met is so friendly and kind. The food is also an absolute hit! Puerto Rico has a place in our hearts. We are already planning to come back and would not hesitate to rent Miriamâs condo again. Thank you again for everything.
I just got back from staying at this beautiful condo in Luquillo owned by Mrs. Otero, and words don't do justice to this place. It is awesome, I am already thinking of rebooking. Its the perfect just like home, everything is close by in regards to food, supermarket, walgreens, walmart. The condo was very spacious and we are a family of 4 with one guest, Miriam made sure everything was provided. I had no issues, everyone was friendly and everything is close. The beach is only a couple of feet away as well as the pool and it is nice and quiet. The view from the Penthouse is magnificent.
Great Stay. Thank you Miriam for sharing your beautiful condo with us and we hope we can come visit and stay another time.

After a long absence of 47 years, I went back to Puerto Rico last year. I got to stay in this wonderful condo and had a great time with my family. I figured, this can't get any better. Well, I was wrong. I went back to this condo this year and it was exponentially better! New appliances and an awesome dining room table greeted me. Needless to say, I had a great time, yet again. The sweeping views of the island, the amenities and the nearby restaurants have me making this a yearly sojourn. If anyone is thinking of going out to Puerto Rico, make it a point of staying at this condo. You cannot go wrong.
You won't regret booking this penthouse. Everything you need to feel at home is here. It was so nice to have brand new bathrooms and a brand new kitchen during our stay. My family has stayed here many times and we will keep coming back any time we are in Luquillo. I am a stickler for cleanliness and this place never disappoints in that category. We always travel with our 11 year old son and he loves bird watching, the pool, the access to the beach, the basketball and tennis courts, and everything else that they have to do here. You don't even need to leave the grounds to have a vacation in itself. I also love the added security at the front locked gate and front desk of the building. The view from the penthouse is indescribable, every time we come back it seems like it gets better each time. My most favorite place on the property is the balcony. I love sitting there having coffee or a meal while enjoying the view of the beach or the mountains while listening to the waves!! The sunset is always beautiful, too. I can't wait to book this place again for our next vacation!
Miriam is a god send. I stayed for my honeymoon and not only did she take my reservation but she split the payment for me which was probably outside her comfort zone, not having done it before. If I really wanted I could write some super critical review with little annoyances which in the end don't matter. What's important is that Miriam is a great person which manages a great property which she kindly lets us use, and you should. After the series of earthquakes Miriam personally tried contacting me to see if my family and I where ok... It nearly brought me to tears. I am so grateful to have stayed at her place and make my honeymoon a truly memorable occasion. Viva Miriam y viva las Boricua de Puerto Rico. Weeeepaaa.
While the owner was friendly and understanding and offered a partial refund the first night hoping power would return, we were unable to stay at the property for the duration of our trip to PR and had to make alternate arrangements. We have a 17month old and didn't have the luxury of waiting to see if power/water would return. The property mgmt also didn't seem to communicate with the owner when power did return on Sunday or throughout process. At this point, as we left the property Thursday morning we don't feel the owner should make profit on this trip given we weren't able to stay there. We're happy to cover cleaning/re rental costs but a further refund should've been offered. Also have ur cleaning team check ur air-conditioners filters and fans from time to time, they were covered in an inch of dirt/dust - we cleaned them for you upon check in.
Married for over 35 years. Born and raised in New York. We purchased our second home to be closer to family and to learn more of our heritage. We love to travel and enjoy experiencing new cultures.
This location is ideal! It's steps to the beach, 24 hour security, It is 5 minutes from the great food at the Kiosks, 15 minutes from the rain forest (El Yunque), and 20 minutes from Fajardo where you can enjoy fine dining and shopping, 40 minutes form Old San Juan with its historical sights and plenty of wine, dine and shopping. Also, near to Kayaking, jet skiing, zip lining and horseback riding.
What makes this place special is the fantastic view and sounds of the ocean. Night or day it provides you with a peaceful environment that can melt your stress away. Just sit on the balcony and your breath will be taken by the excellent water views.
