About this property
Estrella del Sol - At the foothills of El Yunque National Forest
Located in Rio Grande, the city of El Yunque, the SOLAR powered Villa Apt is located in a quiet neighborhood with everything you want or need for the perfect getaway. Two large bedrooms, with their own bathroom and a large open kitchen/dining/ living room area with all the conveniences to feel at home. AC throughout the apartment and ceiling fans with a full sized kitchen, washer and dryer, Wi-Fi, two outside patios, one of which includes a hammock, and breathtaking views of El Yunque.
THE SPACE:
During daylight hours, you can walk to the nearby river, see a variety of birds on the trees, pet the neighborhood cat, or see the neighborhood’s chickens and roosters scurrying about the yard. If you are up for an adventure, then you can visit the many local attractions, including a new local craft brewery in Rio Grande. At night, you will be lulled by the sounds of the Rainforest including the coquis and if you are a star gazer, this is the place to be.
The villa apartment has a separate entrance from the main villa. You have the choice of the courtyard with chairs at the front of the house or the first floor veranda around the back of the house to enjoy in the comfort of the hammock (hamaca), enjoy gazing at the stars at night, or sit and relax with a cup of coffee or a glass of wine.
Although you are in a secluded spot, it is very close to many local attractions:
San Juan International Airport (25 min, SJU), Old San Juan, Condado, Isla Verde (30 min), El Yunque Rainforest (10 min), Golf (Whyndam Grand Rio Mar or Coco Beach) (10 minutes) Rio Grande Beach (10 minutes), Luquillo Beach and Kioscos (15 min), new Ceiba Ferry Terminal to Culebra & Vieques (40 min), Carabali Rainforest Adventure Park (10 min), Seven Seas Beach (35 min). Also available nearby, Horseback riding, ziplines, jet skis, surfing lessons (La Pared Beach), kayaking, snorkeling and scuba diving.
The entire space is 1500 sq feet with outside courtyard of approximately 500 sq. feet additional.
GUEST ACCESS:
The back patio with the hammock is accessed by walking around the house as it is located at the back of the house. A second patio is right outside the apartment.
OTHER THINGS TO NOTE:
The front patio has Adirondack chairs, large umbrella to sit under the shade AND an outdoor shower custom painted by a local artist. It is made of a used surfboard and plumbed to provide both a shower and a hose to rinse the feet prior to going into the Apartment
We look forward to welcoming you!

About the host
Hosted by Chandran

My husband and I love to travel and explore the world. Meeting new people, learning about diverse/new culture and seeing the amazing places that the world has to offer are our passions in life. From Milford Sound in NZ, to the Fjords of Norway, to the Great Wall of China, to Borobudur, in Indonesia and the Cliffs of Mohr in Ireland…..and many, many more in between. Our hobbies include making home brewed beers, cooking/eating international cuisine, golfing, and riding our motorcycle to explore the highways and byways of the continental United States – such as the Kangamagus (NH), Peak-to-Peak (CO), etc...
