The property was amazing. Very quiet place, in a great neighborhood. It was spacious and clean. The accommodations and communication were fantastic. Will definitely stay again on future visits.
The El faro surf house was perfect for us! The house was well stocked with all the comforts of home you like to have on vacation but dont have when you are in a hotel! We greatly appreciated the bounty of beach/bath towels and a well equipped kitchen. The house is set up for all water sports activities with outside shower, outside facet, outside sink and clothes line. Great location to good dive spots and Dive shops. We got lots of great dives in from Rincon to El Natural. Tina was very responsive and communicative.
We were not able to enjoy the yard as the grass was high and it was not taken care of , the chairs on the patio were all unusable .
The AC is the master bed room is too swamp for the room and struggles to keep it kool making it noisy.
Communication and directions were great , the interior of the facility was clean and spacious .
Tina was awesome to work with. She was communicative through the process and even gave us recommendations for snorkeling. We particularly appreciated the outlook in the backyard. It had a fantastic view of the sunrise, golf course, and ocean. We hope to be back soon. Thanks Tina!!
The house is spacious and comfortable, shower out front, great surf spots minutes away, and surfboard racks right inside. The neighborhood is nice and quiet and felt very safe. The treehouse was a great place to catch the breeze, watch the tropical birds, and play ring toss. Iâd stay there again!
Cozy relaxing family vacation stay With beautiful views
We canât thank Tina enough for letting us enjoy her home and property. The house was nicely cleaned and had many thoughtful extras such as pack n play, kids toys , kids sand buckets and shovels, beach towels, beach chairs etc. We visited local beaches and benefited from such conveniences! My daughter loved these extras and so did we! We enjoyed setting the hammock out. The outdoor patio is beautiful. The kitchen was nicely stocked. Be sure to make a quick trip to the grocery for basic food supplies but other than that your trip is taken care of thanks to the ownerâs thoughtfulness throughout the home! We had spent such good family time together as a result of such conveniences and home amenities. We hope to be back soon and canât wait to tell our friends and family about our stay at El Farro Surfhouse!
Such a great property! Itâs in a quiet neighborhood with lots of beaches, restaurants, and fun things to do nearby. There are fantastic views out of the tree house looking over the golf course, and it also offers a nice view of the ocean. Tina provides hammocks which we hung up in the tree house to enjoy the breeze and watch a few excellent sunsets.
She also has a closet full of games and beach equipment, such as chairs, a umbrella, and a small cooler; we were very appreciative of those things because we spent every day at the beaches hanging out and surfing.
Her kitchen is very organized and clean! Thereâs a grocery store nearby; we cooked several meals there and she had all the essentials to do so.
Overall, it was an excellent experience and we canât wait to get back!
The house has many amenities that you could want. A/C works great, very comfortable rooms and beds! The backyard and patio was great, wonderful view, only downside was no access to beach from backyard, which I had thought might be the case from the pictures. TV with streaming was nicer to have, and kitchen had all utensils. The house is in need of some cosmetic repairs but fully functional. Very spacious!
I enjoyed my stay in Borinquen. The hostess communicated expeditiously if you had any questions. I enjoyed sitting on the patio to watch the sunset. Thank u Tina for a wonderful vacation experience.
It was pretty close to the advertisement. However not cleaned very well and sheets looked unwashed. The outdoor deck you have to climb very steep stairs (almost a ladder) lol and lights didnât work. TV wouldnât turn on but it was a cute space and the check in was easy
I am very pleased with this stay! The reservation process was on VRBO was simple, however, I had questions about the dates and the sleeping arrangements. The owner was very responsive and quickly answered all of my questions. ÂĄMuchas gracias, Tina!
Also, our host Sal was super helpful and very accommodating. Overall, this experience was carefree and my family and I greatly enjoyed the stay.
Terrific house for a family that wants to explore all the surf and beaches in Aquadilla
Super clean, plenty of space, and the raised deck in the back is perhaps the best part of the whole property. Great view, wonderful breeze. We had a wonderful week with 6 of us (3 adults and 3 teens) and would go back in a second.
My extended family and I recently stayed at the El Faro Surf House and had a great time! The house is cute and everything we needed to round out our trip to Aguadilla/Rincon. Tina and her property manager Sal were easy to work with and get in touch with if needed. Check in and out was simple. The house is in a great location for local surf spots/beaches and a quick walk from the playground for the kids. Unfortunately the splash park at the play ground was still closed due to COVID when we were there. Would definitely stay here again!
Tina the owner was very responsive to questions/concerns. Informed us in advance that washer had broken down & provided us with options.
We had late arrival and James the manager left a/c and lights on for us - nice & thoughtful of him.
The beds are all very comfortable. Cold a/c in all the bedrooms. Great wifi. Location is quiet & quite safe. Grocery, restaurants, food trucks, El Faro ruins & secluded beach within 5 min. drive. No problem with power outages which could be an issue in PR.
I will say I didn't realize there was no a/c or windows in the living/dining/kitchen area, and it can get pretty hot even with the ceiling fans on.
Freezer leaked water into fridge - I informed James & he was having repairman check fridge again as it was supposed to have been resolved.
Overall we enjoyed our 9 days there and would rent again.
We spent 3 unforgettable nights at El Faro Surf House, the 2nd week in July, 2021; this house is spacious, clean, and comfortable. All 3 bedrooms have air conditioners; the back upper deck has a breathtaking view of the golf course and ocean. The Kitchen has everything to cook all you need is the groceries. Thereâs board game for children and young people to play, beach towels. This place is close to supermarket, fast food, pharmacies, including a casino etc. Crash Boat Beach is a local beautiful beach located just 10 minutes from El Faro (Please arrive early to get a good parking spot).
We had a great experience and NO PROBLEM AT ALL staying at Tinaâs place. Tina a charming person and was available at all times including Mr. James.
If and when I return to my beautiful island, I will definitely rent it again.
Thank you, Tina & James for giving us the opportunity.

We live in Carolina Beach, NC and are a family of four. Not to exclude our small zoo of animals that we love and call our pets. We love to surf, adventure, and explore.
PR and Aquadilla is what my wife and I looked for all over the world. This is our point B in life. A great place where you can enjoy the beach without a care in the world, your kids can play in the neighborhood without concern. A surfboard accidentally left out overnight will be there in the morning. The surf gets as good as anywhere. In the end, it just felt like home.
There's also the extra benefit of having an ocean view and a working lighthouse in the backyard. It is possible to check the surf and wind from the treehouse. When there is surf you can hear it from the bedroom.
