Amazing property and great host!

My family and I had an amazing vacation. Diane was helpful every step of the way. The property is just like the photos and we all had our space and could gather on the huge back deck to watch the waves and relax. Dorado has fun restaurants and San Juan is a short drive away. We will definitely be returning to this property.

Great Winter Getaway

My family and I enjoyed Diane's luxury oceanfront home. There was plenty of space for my family of 8. The views were amazing. She has went above and beyond to provide amenities for our family to help us be comfortable throughout our stay. The home is located less than 10 mins from several beaches, we were able to visit 2 of them. Would recommend for anyone traveling to Puerto Rico and wants to stay somewhere that provides a serene environment and peaceful experience.

Nothing short of stellar

This stunning home has it all! If you're looking for a view, you cannot do better. It's feet from the water and there is tons of outdoor seating on the main level and upstairs to enjoy the 180 degree views. The bedrooms are all spacious and the beds/bedding/pillows are some of the most comfy I've experienced. The bathrooms are plentiful and modern. The home itself is nicely laid out, beautifully decorated and has all the amenities you will need - more extras than I have ever seen. The gated community is very safe and close to restaurants. Check in and out and communication were so quick and easy. Steps to the beach are right next to the home. I highly recommend this home!!

Amazing and Increible Place

If anyone wants to visit Puerto Rico I recommend this 5 star plus property. You will find absolutely everything you need. You feel like you are in your own home. The service of the owners was incredible, attentive to all our needs and then the place was incredibly beautiful, the beach was perfect, the views were luxurious and the gated and secure community. El Dorado is an incredible place so therefore I tell you. This is the property that you should rent. I am already making my next arrangements to visit the island of enchantment again and of course in this beautiful property. Diane Thank you very much for everything.

Perfect for a Big Chill Weekend

The house was gorgeous. A perfect combo of en-suite bedrooms/bathrooms and common outdoor living.Very clean, very well equipped which we appreciated bc we cooked in a few nights. The protected cove with a beautiful beach was just steps away. Diane was a perfect hostess; she checked in occasionally, answered questions promptly, and made good suggestions. Enjoy!

Excellent Beach House

Ten family members stayed together for five days in this lovely beach house. The house was roomy, immaculate and just plain beautiful. The kitchen was well stocked and very functional. The deck overlooked a rocky beach with ocean waves crashing just in front of the house. The adjacent sandy beach was perfect for swimming and sun bathing. My sister-in-law, who was with us, is trying to book the house for another stay. All-in-all, this was a wonderful experience.

Best Host Ever!!!

If I could give more than 5 stars I would. Diane is by far the most incredible host, and we’ve stayed at several rentals. Her home is gorgeous , beautifully decorated and has everything you need! The kitchen is well stocked. Nice beach chairs, umbrellas, paddle board, kayak, snorkel equipment , nice beach towels, I could go on and on! Her recommendations were spot on. Did I mention she is the BEST HOST EVER!!!

Absolutely fabulous!

The home is amazing. As other reviews stated, the photos don’t capture the home’s beauty. The views are amazing, the beach is a 1 min walk, and each room is beautifully decorated. Both patios provide a variety of seating (or lounging) options to soak in the ocean views and sounds. The host proactively engaged with us to ensure our stay was enjoyable.

It is steps away from a private and beautiful beach. Diane is so attentive, she was in constant communication with us to make sure everything was ok! Would definitely recommend 10/10!

Wonderful Week!

We were a group of 10 friends (5 couples) and the house was excellent in every way -- beautiful design, great amenities, clean, well-decorated, comfortable, incredible view, nice local beach, plenty of areas for private reading and napping. Diane was an incredible host -- always accessible, able to provide answers to all questions . . . and then some!

Amazing property for families!

The house was beyond our expectations. Diane did everything to personalize our stay and make us feel so welcome. She is an amazing host and so thoughtful. She even brought stuff for our baby to make our stay easy. She made the adults and kids feel so welcome. We had 3 coupes, a baby and 2 kids. Everyone had an amazing time. We have stayed in many rentals but Diane’s place was by far the best experience we’ve had.

Beautiful Home, beautiful view, great vacation

We had a fantastic stay, the house is beautiful. The view is even more beautiful than the pictures do justice. It is in a gated community with a beach just out the door and down some stairs that we basically had to ourselves. It is close to a great hiking trail just to the west, the town around the house has some great restaurants. The owner is extremely attentive and communicates throughout. We had a cracked coffee carafe and she was there a couple of hours later with a new coffee maker. You will not feel neglected. It's a wonderful place to relax and a great jumping off point to go explore Puerto Rico. We will visit again. Thanks Diane!

Wonderful Girls' Reunion Stay

We stayed in Diane's Oceanfront Dorado house for a 40th birthday trip for ten college friends and the house was perfect! Not only is the location amazing, with sweeping ocean views from nearly every part of the house, but Diane was a wonderful host who went above and beyond. She provided us with so many details and recommendations before arriving and even went the extra mile to make it a special weekend, setting us up with a birthday surprise! The house was clean, beds were comfortable and everything was as pictured. We were steps away from the beach and the location was close to everything we hoped to see! You can hear the ocean from several rooms in the house, so we chose bedrooms accordingly, as some of us enjoyed that. Would recommend this house wholeheartedly. Thanks for a great stay and a wonderful birthday celebration, Diane!

Absolutely wonderful!!!

Amazing house! We loved our time in PR because of this house. The decks are incredible, the house is so well stocked, the kitchen as well as everywhere else. The area in front of the house was beachy with rocks which the kids (adult and young) loved exploring. While the lagoon was incredible! We would get up every morning and watch the sea turtles in the sea grass, it was magical. The lagoon/beach was never busy, we were normally the only ones there even though it was huge. Diane was so wonderful, easy to communicate with and so nice (even when I called her about silly things like lobster fishermen! ) I have stayed in so many rentals and this was the best! The kitchen was super functional, the bar area the same! The upstairs outdoor shower was unique and awesome (even during a thunderstorm!) the beds were super comfy and the sheets were so soft! Diane has done an awesome job of making a vacation home for all ages! 100% highly recommended!

Wonderful House and Host!

The house and setting are gorgeous. Very well equipped and clean, the house is roomy and open to the decks on both levels. The beach is only stair steps away. All the upstairs bedrooms open to a terrace overlooking the ocean. They call this paradise for a reason. Diane, the host and owner, is amazingly accessible and really goes out of her way to answer questions about restaurants, beaches, and interesting things to see and do. No question was too much and she responds to texts quickly. This was our first trip to Puerto Rico, and she helped us out so much. She is a gem!!
