LOCATION

Flamboyan Flat is located in Condado, Puerto Rico. This is considered a prime location in San Juan. From Flamboyan Flat, you are a 3-5-minute walk away from the sand, and within walking distance of some of the best dining options, Puerto Rico has to offer. Forget the rental car because from here you can walk or Uber to everything! The apartment is approx. 10 minutes from the airport, restaurants, parks, supermarkets, pharmacies, and shops, all within walking distance.

There are many things to do in the surrounding areas, here are some of our favorites:

Chill at the beach! It is one of our favorite beaches in Puerto Rico and a must-do if you stay at Flamboyan Flat. The apartment has beach chairs, towels, and coolers for a long day at the beach.
Lunch or dinner at La Placita de Santurce, a local market with 20+ restaurants and awesome nightlife. We love Santaella restaurant, which offers local cuisine with a modern approach and is in La Placita.
Explore Calle Loiza, which is blocks from the apartment. This up-and-coming hip street is littered with funky dining and shopping options. Start off with a margarita at Acapulco and head down the strip stopping at Sabrina or Azucena for sophisticated Puerto Rican food.
Paddle board at Laguna del Condado. A 10 minute walk from the apartment. 
Take an e-foiling lesson with our friends at Seakindly in San Juan Bay. This is a 10 minute Uber ride from the apartment. 
Explore the El Yunque Rainforest. El Yunque is an easy 40-minute drive from the property and is the only rainforest under US Flagship. We can help coordinate tours to this destination.
Spend a day in Old San Juan. Flamboyan Flat is a 10 min Uber ride from the oldest city in the US. There is a lot of history to be seen and great food, drinks, and shopping to enjoy!

 
GETTING AROUND

We recommend moving around via Uber if staying within the general San Juan/Metro area. If you plan to rent a car to explore the island, this property DOES NOT include parking.
