About the host
Hosted by Aida Plaud
I was born and raised in this once small fishing village known as Emerald of the South (Esmeralda del Sur). Greg on the other hand was born and raised in Minnesota. He fell in love with Puerto Rico and especially this beautiful ocean side community in the island the first time he visited my family 20 years ago. He became captivated by the green mountains, blue sky and beautiful light blue ocean waters. Since I left my beautiful island I always want to go back, so I purchased the land and built a custom home. We designed the house with large open floor plan, 3 bedrooms and a luxury swimming pool. Now having the opportunity to own a piece of paradise and share with others is truly a blessing.
Why they chose this property
I was born and raised in this lovely paradise town and I want others to know and enjoy this beautiful quaint town. One of best location for any family who loves to be close to nature and yet still enjoy other activities that the island has to offer!!! The property provide a reasonable, comfortable place for family to be able to get together and make memories.
What makes this property unique
We designed the house with large open floor plan with 3 bedrooms and 3 baths. Master has huge walk in closet with master bathroom. The house offers a large private pool, private parking, all kitchen utensils and free WFi. We enjoy going across the road to local beach with lawn chairs, sitting with locals and enjoy outdoor ocean breezes and views of the ocean. Little authentic grocery across the street sells local fruit, vegetables and homemade sandwiches. Our stress level goes down to zero!
