We had an amazing stay at this rental. Super close to entrance to the beach and cueva del Indio. Our host was welcoming and attentive. A little issue with the gate was resolved quickly. We highly recommend staying there and would come back again.
This home away from home was very clean and well taken care of. The air conditioning units worked well. The kitchen was incredibly well stocked and included oil and spices. The deck is spacious and the hammock was well used by everyone in our group. I went with 6 people 18-68. The VRBO is less than a five minute walk to the beach where there was something for everyone: crashing waves, beach combing, a tranquil pool and two hills to scamper up for amazing coastline views.There are many restaurants nearby. It was about 1 hour fifteen minute drive from San Juan airport. A great place for day trips to El Yunque National Forest (take a tour - strenuous hiking but worth it); the bioluminescent bay where you can swim; and Old Town San Juan; and many, many nearby beaches.The roads are narrow and harrowing but you’ll get used to them quickly.
We came with 7 adults and the house was perfect. Exactly how it was described. 3 min. Ride to the beach. The porch was so relaxing to sit in the morning and listen to nature. Will definitely recommend this place to everyone who wants to enjoy the real Puerto Rico 🇵🇷
We loved your home!!! The layout of the house is perfect for a large group. The added plus of the second kitchen with washer and dryer was a big help. The outdoor deck was also very comfortable. We will definitely be renting this house again the next trip we take to Puerto Rico!!🇵🇷
Many blessings!

My family of 7 had a wonderful stay! The home was very clean and the beds were very comfortable. It was also very convenient to have a washer and dryer. The home was laid out so well and it was very spacious. And did I mention how clean this place was. The bathrooms were top notch… laid out well with beautiful tile work! Clean, clean, clean and no mold!We spent our evenings playing cards outside on the very spacious and private covered porch. The host was super responsive and kind! Also very accessible for those who can not do stairs or steps…. 0 entry. My son is in a manual wheelchair and was able to be 100% independent! Highly recommended!

Thank you, for being a great guest! We would be happy to host you again.
We went to Arecibo to celebrate the 50th wedding anniversary of my sister in law, and 9 of us, including the happy couple stayed in Casa grande. We rented both sides of the property (Apt. A and B). Since the party was early afternoon the hostess, Tatiana was very kind and made the arrangements so we could enter a bit earlier. Even though at the beginning we had a bit of difficulty trying to access both sides because the connecting door was closed, after several emails and phone calls the problem was solved.
The property is amazing. Everything was so clean and well organized! The 5 bedrooms were super spacious. The kitchens were well equiped. The decor was very pleasant. Our favorite part was the deck. We spent the mornings and nights there enjoying the breeze, chatting, sharing and just relaxing.
We recommend this place 100%.
