This was a great property it is hard to find on the map but that was the only issue. Had our own parking spot. Close to lots of things. The stairs are pretty intense so be mindful. But it was beautiful and comfortable.

TOO GOOD TO SKIP! This was the best choice we could’ve ever made when picking where to stay. We have been around different parts of PR a few times, but this was by far my favorite place we’ve stayed yet. As artists, this was the most beautiful and inspiring place possible. We could’ve stayed on the balcony for the whole stay. The hosts were so communicative and friendly. We were able to speak in English and Spanish throughout our stay. They made sure we were comfortable, happy, and safe. There are little bars across from the park, which was another highlight of the trip. Every point was perfect. I can’t recommend this place enough!!

Puerto Rican property with wonderful local flare!

A very clean, modern, cute, nice property to stay in with local flare. Across the street from a beautiful little park and the beach. Minutes away from Crash Boat Beach! The manager and her representatives on-island were very responsive. Not for those with disabilities as there are several steps to climb to get up to the apartment, creating the nice ocean view from the bedroom.

Would highly recommend it for families

Chris March 2016 Maria's place is in a great area. Her place is extremely clean and comfortable. The beach is down the street and great restaurants are just around the corner. Easy and quick access to the main streets to other areas. In the evening the area comes to life at the beach and there is lots to explore and enjoy. Maria and her team was extremely responsive to all our questions, and was very helpful, making our stay enjoyable and stress-free! Would highly recommend it for families

Safety concerns

We couldn't safely access the apartment. The steep stairs are slick and have no railing in may places that have a 25' fall. Looks like building next door was demolished. Mattresses and old furniture scattered on the street and worried about parking car. May be ok as a bachelor pad area but not a family vacation. The apartment appears to be at the edge of an economically challenged area. The owner had invested in the interior of her place which is nice if you can access it. Unfortunately we are in disagreement on the tone of neighborhood and the major safety issue of the entrance so she kept our full rental payment even though we could not checkin. Beware until the staircase is fixed. I hope the posting will be adjusted to be more transparent.

Kay ; I am very disappointed with the misleading information you are providing. I know you would of liked for me to continue discounting you rate, but at the end of the day, we are not in the business of giving free rentals. What you failed to understand that even if we are new to THIS website we have been in businesses for about 4 years and have hosted over 300 guest. All the other websites have multiple reviews and 5 star rating from people that really came to enjoy all of what our island has to offer. let's address your review : Furniture in the streets : Not true , we take pride and have pictures and live video of when you arrived. Steep stair case : Very true specified on description of the home. No railing : Not true cement wall about 4 feet long secures guest from any falls. We also do not rent to people with small children unless they sign a waiver, event then we had visitors from France that stay with two small children for 2 months.And guess what never complain.Also the drop you are talking about is in the property under construction next door , also our property. Where you hanging out the security wall? Security in the area: Never once an incident reported, let's be honest the police department is s short walk from the house. 300 guest not one incident. Economic status on the town: Kay unfortunately this is the sad situation of the island. We have a lot of poverty in the area and all over the island. This should not be a reason of your concern. They are nice caring people that do not bother or threaten any guest in any way. It is sad that you did not take into that into consideration when researching this vacation destination. Poverty is part of this island, funny coming from somebody is such a strict budget. The details that were left for you were not even mention, the million dollar views of the coast not even look at, you did not even bother looking at the terrace. The truth is that we did not check you in a day earlier like you requested, and you found lower cost accommodations and decided to stay in another location. After all you use the stairs to try to get me to give you some money back in exchange for a nice review. And by the way, let's make it clear you did not rent El Palomar Beach House , you rented La Mina, the studio downstairs for a lower rate. You failed to mention that part. Normally I would ignore this review , I know we cant please everyone. But this was a little below the belt to ask for a refund for a nice review.
